KORTE LAW maintains offices in Berlin (Germany), Paris (France), Rabat (Morocco), and Casablanca (Morocco). This privacy policy applies to all data processing activities conducted through our website korte-law.com, regardless of which office handles your inquiry.
When you use our contact form, we collect:
Purpose: To respond to your inquiry, assess whether we can assist you, and conduct internal conflict checks.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR — our legitimate interest in responding to inquiries from prospective clients and business contacts, and Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where the inquiry relates to the initiation of a contractual relationship. Under Morocco's Loi 09-08, processing is based on Article 4 (legitimate interest of the controller and the necessity to perform pre-contractual measures).
Retention period: If your inquiry does not lead to a client engagement, we delete your data within six (6) months of our last communication, unless we are required to retain minimal identifying information for conflict-check purposes (up to three years, in line with §§ 195–199 BGB). If a mandate is formed, your data becomes part of the client file and is retained in accordance with statutory professional and tax retention obligations (§ 50 BRAO: six years; § 147 AO / § 14b UStG: up to ten years for billing records).
When you visit our website, your browser automatically transmits certain technical data to our server, including your IP address, date and time of access, pages visited, browser type, and operating system. This data is processed on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in ensuring the security and functionality of our website) and is deleted after 30 days.
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies. Non-essential cookies are only set with your prior consent (§ 25(1) TTDSG; Article 6(1)(a) GDPR).
We use Google Analytics (provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) to analyze website usage. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymized usage data (pages visited, session duration, approximate location derived from a truncated IP address).
Where we use remarketing or advertising tracking pixels (e.g., from Google Ads, Meta/Facebook, or LinkedIn), these are activated only with your prior consent. Such tools may collect device identifiers and browsing behavior to display targeted advertisements.
When you first visit our website, a consent banner allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You may modify your preferences at any time by clicking the cookie settings link in the website footer. Strictly necessary cookies (required for the basic functioning of the website) do not require consent (§ 25(2) TTDSG).
KORTE LAW operates offices in Morocco (Rabat and Casablanca). When your data is shared with our Moroccan offices for the purpose of processing your inquiry or managing a client engagement, this constitutes a transfer of personal data to a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA).
Morocco does not currently benefit from an EU adequacy decision under Article 45 GDPR. We therefore rely on EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) adopted by the European Commission pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) GDPR to ensure an adequate level of protection for your data. You may request a copy of these safeguards by contacting us at info@korte-law.com.
Additionally, Morocco's national data protection law (Loi 09-08, Dahir n° 1-09-15 of 18 February 2009) and its supervisory authority (Commission Nationale de contrôle de la protection des Données à caractère Personnel — CNDP) provide a regulatory framework for personal data protection in Morocco.
We may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients, where necessary:
Under the GDPR, you have the following rights:
Under Morocco's Loi 09-08, data subjects additionally have rights of access, rectification, and objection (Articles 7, 8, and 9 of Loi 09-08), which may be exercised by contacting us at the address above.
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority:
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction, in accordance with Article 32 GDPR and Article 23 of Loi 09-08.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices or legal requirements. The current version is always available on our website. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
This privacy policy is governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), the German Telecommunications-Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), and, where applicable, Morocco's Loi 09-08 relative to the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data.
