This data is stored in server log files and is used exclusively to ensure the technically error-free provision and security of the website (e.g. to detect misuse). The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest). The log files are deleted automatically, generally within 90 days at the latest.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures) or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to your enquiry). Your data will be deleted once it is no longer required for processing, unless statutory retention obligations require otherwise.
