For practical reasons or for your information, our website might contain features which we work with other companies to provide or links to other websites. These features can encompass social networking, geographical tools and links to other websites and can be operated independently of ALPLA.

For what purpose and on what legal grounds do we process your personal data?

We process your personal data as defined in items 2.1 and 2.2 on the grounds of our legitimate interests (point (f) of Article 6 (1) GDPR). We have a legitimate interest in:

  • Due to legitimate interests: We will only store the personal data defined in items 2.1 and 2.2 for as long as they are necessary for the purposes described in item 4.1. Once we no longer have a legitimate interest, the personal data will, as a rule, be erased unless it is necessary to – temporarily – continue processing them in order to comply with statutory storage obligations (e.g. under company or tax law) or retain evidence in connection with the statute of limitations. We can store anonymised data for an indefinite period.
