4. Purpose and Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data for the following purposes:

Legal basis: Legitimate Interest (Art. 6.1 f GDPR)

We process your data based on a legitimate interest in the following cases:

  • Administration of inquiries and quotes: To efficiently manage and respond to your requests for quotes and information, which is necessary for our business.
  • Customer relationship management and follow-up: To maintain contact with existing and potential customers, and to conduct follow-up after completed work to ensure quality and customer satisfaction.
  • Service development and analysis: To improve and adapt our services and website based on user behavior and customer needs.

Our assessment of legitimate interest: We have conducted a balancing test and consider that our interest in processing the data for the specified purposes outweighs your right to protect your personal data, as the processing is limited to what is necessary for our core business and does not pose a significant risk to your rights and freedoms.

Other legal bases (when applicable):

  • Contract fulfillment (Art. 6.1 b): Processing is necessary to fulfill a contract (e.g., when you order and we perform a tree care assignment).
  • Legal obligation (Art. 6.1 c): Processing is necessary to comply with legal requirements (e.g., accounting law).

5. Sharing of Personal Data

We never sell your personal data. We may share your data with:

  • Suppliers and subcontractors: Who perform services for us (e.g., IT suppliers, accounting firms). These parties may only process your data according to our instructions and may not use them for their own purposes.
  • Authorities: If we are required to do so by law or authority decision.

6. Storage Period

We only retain your personal data as long as necessary for the purposes for which they were collected, or as required by law (e.g., seven years for accounting records).

  • Customer and quote inquiry data: Retained as long as the customer relationship exists or for a reasonable time after last contact, based on our legitimate interest.

  • Right to restriction: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your data.
  • Right to object to processing: You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interest. If you object, we will cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
  • Right to data portability: You have the right to have the data you provided to us transferred to another data controller in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
