Your personal data will be deleted or blocked once the purpose no longer applies or has been fulfilled. In the event of blocking, deletion will take place provided that legal, statutory or contractual retention periods do not conflict with this, there is no reason to assume that deletion would impair your interests worthy of protection and deletion would not cause disproportionately high costs due to the special type of storage.
