Camille Bauer Metrawatt AG processes the personal data that is required to provide our services in an effective and user-friendly manner as well as permanently, securely and reliably.

As a matter of principle, Camille Bauer Metrawatt AG only processes personal data with the consent of the data subject, unless the processing is permitted for other reasons, for example to fulfill a contract with the data subject and for corresponding pre-contractual measures, to protect our overriding legitimate interests, because the processing is evident from the circumstances, or after prior information. In this context, we process in particular information that a data subject transmits himself or herself when contacting us – for example, by letter, e-mail, contact form, telephone or social media – and may store such information in a customer relationship management system (CRM system), in online store software or with comparable tools.

Camille Bauer Metrawatt AG processes personal data for the period of time required for the respective purpose or purposes. In the case of longer-term storage obligations due to legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict the processing accordingly.
