3. Purpose and legal basis

The purpose of processing this data is to enable shareholders and shareholder representatives to attend the Annual General Meeting and to exercise their rights before and during the Annual General Meeting. Furthermore, it should be possible for guests to attend the Annual General Meeting. The legal basis for processing the data are the following:

  • Article 6 (1) ( c) of the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") insofar as compliance with our statutory duties in connection with the conduct of general meetings is concerned, in particular within the scope of our duties pursuant to sections 118 et seq. German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz, AktG). This includes in particular our duty to verify your eligibility to participate in the Annual General Meeting as a shareholder or shareholder representative, to ensure the proper adoption of resolutions and valuation of votes at the Annual General Meeting and the fulfilment of other legal obligations such as e.g. regulatory requirements as well as retention obligations under stock corporation, commercial and tax law (e.g. the obligation to retain the declaration of proxy for three years when authorising the proxies appointed by us for the Annual General Meeting).
  • Article 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR insofar as it is a matter of safeguarding our legitimate interests in the context of preparing, conducting and ensuring the smooth running of the Annual General Meeting. This includes in particular the technical provision and operation of the InvestorPortal.

4. Recipient

The Company utilises various service providers and consultants in connection with its Annual General Meeting. They only receive the personal data that they require to perform their specific duties from the Company. The service providers and consultants process this data solely in accordance with the Company's instructions and the Company remains responsible for the protection of your personal data in such cases.

Furthermore, in accordance with statutory regulations, personal data shall be provided to shareholders and shareholder representatives, by listing names in the subscriber directory. In addition, we may transmit your personal data to other recipients if we are obliged to do so, for example when publishing notifications of voting rights in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act, or to authorities for the fulfilment of statutory notification obligations (e.g. to financial or law enforcement authorities).

5. Storage period

Your personal data is stored for as long as this is required by law, in particular if and insofar as we are subject to statutory obligations to provide proof and to retain data (e.g. under the German Stock Corporation Act, the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch) or the German Fiscal Code (Abgabenordnung)). Beyond that, we only store your personal data if the Company has a legitimate interest in storing it for a longer period of time, e.g. in the event of
