The legal basis for OMNETRIC processing data about you is that such processing is necessary for the purposes of:

• Compliance with OMNETRIC's legal obligations (Article 6 (1) (c) General Data Protection Regulation), and/or

Generally the legitimate interest pursued by OMNETRIC in relation to our use of your personal data is the efficient performance or management of our business relationship with you.

In some cases, we may ask if you consent to the relevant use of your personal data. In such cases, the legal basis for OMNETRIC processing that data about you may (in addition or instead) be that you have consented (Article 6 (1) (a) General Data Protection Regulation).

OMNETRIC may transfer your personal data to:

• other OMNETRIC companies in connection with your use of the OMNETRIC Online Offerings or our business relationship with you;

Sometimes the recipients to whom OMNETRIC transfers your personal data are located in countries in which applicable laws do not offer the same level of data protection as the laws of your home country. In such cases, OMNETRIC takes measures to implement appropriate and suitable safeguards for the protection of your personal data.

Personal data published by you on OMNETRIC Online Offerings (such as chat rooms or forums) may be globally accessible to other registered users of the respective OMNETRIC Online Offering.  

Unless indicated otherwise at the time of the collection of your personal data (e.g. within a form completed by you), we erase your personal data if the retention of that personal data is no longer necessary (i) for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed, or (ii) to comply with legal obligations (such as retention obligations under tax or commercial laws). 

In case you declared your consent for the processing of certain personal data by OMNETRIC, you have the right to withdraw the consent at any time with future effect, i.e. the withdrawal of the consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on the consent before its withdrawal. If the consent is withdrawn, OMNETRIC may only further process the personal data where there is another legal ground for the processing. 

Under applicable data protection law you may have the right to:

• Obtain from OMNETRIC confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you are being processed, and where that is the case, access to the personal data;
• Obtain from OMNETRIC the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you;
