If you have given us your consent to process your personal data for a certain purpose, e.g. when registering to receive newsletters, we will process your personal data within that scope and based on this consent. A withdrawl is possible at any time, but this does not affect data processed prior to such a withdrawal.

In addition, we may also process personal data for marketing or information purposes (e.g. organisation of events, news feeds to relevant legal topics or legal developments).
