How we use personal data

We collect and use personal data for the purposes of:

We process personal data for these purposes in the context of pre-contractual and contractual relationships and partly on the basis of our legitimate marketing interests.

Without the provision of personal data, we are unable to enter into and perform the relevant contract or to pursue our legitimate interests.
