RETENTION PERIOD
Unless otherwise stated in this document, Personal Data is processed and stored for the time required by the purpose for which it was collected and may be stored for a longer period due to any legal obligations or based on Users' consent.

Additional Information for Users in the European Union
This section applies to all Users in the European Union, in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (the "GDPR") and, for such Users, supersedes any other possibly divergent or conflicting information contained in the Privacy Policy. Further details regarding the categories of Data processed, the purposes of processing, the categories of recipients of Personal Data, if any, and additional information on Personal Data can be found in the "Detailed Information on the Processing of Personal Data" section within this document.

LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING
The Controller processes Personal Data related to the User in case one of the following conditions exists:

the User has given consent for one or more specific purposes; Note: In some jurisdictions, the Data Controller may be authorized to process Personal Data without the need for the User's consent or another of the legal bases specified below, as long as the User does not object ("opt-out") to such processing. However, this does not apply if the processing of Personal Data is governed by European legislation on the protection of Personal Data;
the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with the User and/or the performance of pre-contractual measures;
the processing is necessary for the performance of a legal obligation to which the Controller is subject;
processing is necessary for the performance of a task of public interest or the exercise of public authority vested in the Controller;
the processing is necessary for the pursuit of the legitimate interest of the Controller or third parties.
However, it is always possible to ask the Data Controller to clarify the concrete legal basis of each processing and in particular to specify whether the processing is based on law, required by a contract or necessary to conclude a contract.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON RETENTION TIME
Unless otherwise stated in this document, Personal Data is processed and stored for the time required by the purpose for which it was collected and may be stored for a longer period due to any legal obligations or based on Users' consent.

Therefore:

Personal Data collected for purposes related to the performance of a contract between the Data Controller and the User will be retained until the performance of that contract is completed.
Personal Data collected for purposes related to the legitimate interest of the Data Controller will be retained until such interest is satisfied. The User may obtain further information regarding the legitimate interest pursued by the Controller in the relevant sections of this document or by contacting the Controller.
When processing is based on the User's consent, the Data Controller may keep the Personal Data longer until such consent is revoked. In addition, the Controller may be obliged to retain Personal Data for a longer period in compliance with a legal obligation or by order of an authority.

At the end of the retention period, the Personal Data will be deleted. Therefore, at the expiration of this period the right of access, deletion, rectification and the right to Data portability can no longer be exercised.
