The following notice provides details about how Allianz SE processes your personal data and your rights under the GDPR.

Where does Allianz SE obtain your data?

If you become a shareholder of Allianz SE, we will process your personal data for the purpose of maintaining the share register. Allianz SE shares are no-par value registered shares. In the case of such registered shares, § 67 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG) stipulates that they must be entered in the company’s share register, stating the shareholder’s surname, first name, date of birth, address, and e-mail address, as well as the number of shares. As a shareholder, you are legally required to provide Allianz SE with this information. The banks involved in the purchase, custody, or sale of your Allianz shares forward this information and other details relevant to the maintenance of the share register (e.g., nationality) to the share register. This is done via Clearstream Europe AG, which, as the central securities depository, handles the technical processing of securities transactions and the custody of shares for banks.

When you register as a shareholder for the general meeting or exercise your shareholder rights, for example by using the Online Service for shareholders of Allianz SE, we process your personal data, such as your surname, first name, address, or e-mail address. In the event of a power of attorney or legal representation, we also process the personal data of your representatives.

We also process your personal data (your surname, first name, and e-mail address) if you consent to receiving the invitations to general meetings by e-mail.

Finally, when you contact us and make inquiries, we process the personal data that you have provided us with in the context of your inquiry and that is necessary to respond to your inquiry. 

For what purposes and on what legal basis is your personal data processed? 

Allianz SE processes your personal data in accordance with the GDPR, the German Federal Data Protection Act, the Regulation on the European Company, the German Stock Corporation Act and all other relevant legal provisions.

Allianz SE initially uses your personal data for the purposes specified in the German Stock Corporation Act. These include, in particular 

• maintaining the share register, 
• the preparation, execution, and follow-up of general meetings, including enabling shareholders to exercise their rights in connection with the general meeting, and
• communicating with you as a shareholder. 

In these cases, your personal data is processed in accordance with the provisions of the Regulation on the European Company and the German Stock Corporation Act in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) subpara. 1 lit. c) and (4) GDPR, and if you register to receive the invitations to general meetings by e-mail, on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) subpara. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

In addition, Allianz SE also processes your personal data on the basis of a legitimate interest, for example to compile statistical evaluations or in connection with the live broadcast of the general meeting in the Online Service for shareholders. During the live broadcast of the general meeting, the audience or individual persons may be filmed. This also applies to speeches. This processing serves the legitimate interest of Allianz SE in enabling shareholders to follow the general meeting via the Internet in accordance with the express permission granted in the German Stock Corporation Act and the Company’s Statutes. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in these cases is Art. 6 (1) subpara. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

If you send us personal data with an inquiry, the legal basis for processing it for the purpose of responding is also Art. 6 (1) subpara. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

Finally, your personal data may also be processed to fulfill other legal obligations, such as regulatory requirements and corporate, commercial, and tax law retention obligations. For example, when authorizing the persons appointed by the Company to vote at the general meeting, it is mandatory to record the data serving as proof of authorization in a verifiable manner and to store it in an access-protected manner for three years (§ 134 (3) sentence 5 AktG). In this case, the legal basis for processing is the respective legal obligations in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) subpara. 1 lit. c) GDPR.

If we intend to process your personal data for another purpose, we will inform you in advance in accordance with the statutory provisions and provide you with the relevant legal basis for the processing.

To which categories of recipients may your data be disclosed?

ADEUS Aktienregister-Service-GmbH, Munich, is mandated to maintain the share register of Allianz SE. ADEUS is a subsidiary of Allianz SE. Allianz SE uses other external service providers for the technical handling of general meetings. Allianz SE only provides external service providers with the personal data necessary to execute their mandate, and they process this data exclusively on the basis of Allianz SE’s instructions.

In addition, it may be necessary to transfer your personal data to other recipients if this is required to comply with legal obligations. 

How long will your data be stored?

Data collected in connection with general meetings is generally stored for up to 10 years. Data stored in the share register is generally retained for 10 years after the sale of the shares. In addition, Allianz SE only retains personal data if this is necessary in connection with claims asserted against the Company (statutory limitation period for possible claims of up to 30 years). In principle, your personal data will be deleted or anonymized as soon as it is no longer required for the above-mentioned purposes and we are not obliged to store it further due to legal documentation and retention obligations.

What are your rights in respect of your personal data?

To the extent permitted by applicable laws or regulations, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data stored about you and to learn the origin of the data, the purposes and means of the processing, the details about the data controller(s) and the parties to whom this data may be disclosed
• Withdraw your consent at any time if your personal data is processed with your consent
• Update and correct your personal data
• Delete your personal data from our records, provided that it is no longer needed for the purposes indicated above
• Restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, e.g., if you have contested its accuracy, for as long as we need to verify it
• Obtain your personal data in electronic form
• Object to our processing of your personal data or request us to stop processing it
