Disposal is carried out by a specialist company in accordance with a procedure agreed with the Data Protection Officer in accordance with DIN 66399 protection class 2, security level H4. The commissioning of the specialist company is carried out by Department 4.1, which also assumes the disposal costs. There are no costs for the institutes.
