In addition, all information necessary to fulfill the mandate is collected, in particular from authority files, public prosecutor's files and court files, insurance files.

The collected data may also include special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 and 10 GDPR. For the execution of the mandate, correspondence and powers of attorney are also processed, as well as data of all categories.

The collection of personal data and also special categories of personal data takes place in particular

The processing of personal data occurs on the occasion of the inquiry/mandate with me and is necessary for the stated purposes for the processing of your mandate and to fulfill obligations arising from the underlying mandate relationship as well as for the aforementioned purposes.

The collected personal data will be deleted after the expiration of the statutory retention periods according to the Federal Lawyers' Act, but no later than after the expiration of the last running statute of limitations plus three additional months. Furthermore, data that must be retained longer due to other regulations (e.g., tax code) or that may be required to safeguard own potential rights or for which consent was given for longer storage, will be stored longer but at most until the end of the statute of limitations as described above.

Your personal data will only be transmitted to third parties if this is necessary for the execution of the mandate relationship. This includes, in particular, the transfer to commissioned service providers (so-called processors) or other third parties whose activity is necessary for the execution of the mandate (e.g., your contractual partners, authorities, public prosecutor's office, courts, shipping companies, insurers). The transferred data may only be used by the third parties for the specified purposes.
