Annual Four Wheel Alignment?

So it's time for the service A. (almost 1 year since I got her )
Made a call to the dealership for an appointment, and they recommended me to have an annual four wheel alignment performed. I'd like to have it performed, since I have hit the curb several times and do feel some kind of slip sometimes.
But I have never heard of the idea of ANNUAL four wheel alignment? Just wondering if anyone could further explain if it is really required to be performed every year?
Cheers

I would suggest it would be done on a needs basis ie unusual wear on tyres or unwanted symptoms ie cupping noise or steering pull.

I would appreciate the the correct alignment setting figures for a C class rear wheel drive, if anyone has them.

As Carsy said, it's on a need-to basis. The dealership is just trying to make money off you
