The personal data collected for the organization and implementation of the competition and the dispatch of the prizes by RECARO Gaming will be stored until the expiry of the statutory retention period and then deleted, unless you have consented to further storage in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR or there is another basis for storage in accordance with the GDPR.
