What is this about?

This privacy policy meets the legal transparency requirements in the processing of personal data. This refers to all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, information such as name, age, address, telephone number, date of birth, e-mail address, IP address, or user behavior when visiting a website. Information for which we cannot (or only with a disproportionate effort) establish a reference to your person, e.g., by anonymization, is not personal data. The processing of personal data (e.g., collection, retrieval, use, storage, or transmission) always requires a legal basis and a defined purpose.

Stored personal data will be deleted as soon as the purpose of the processing has been achieved and there are no legitimate grounds for further storage of the data. We will inform you about the specific storage periods or criteria for storage in the individual processing operations. Irrespective of this, we store your personal in individual cases for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims and if there are statutory retention obligations.

Who gets my data?

We only disclose your personal data that we process on our website to third parties if this is necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes and is covered by the legal basis in the individual case (e.g., consent or protection of legitimate interests). In addition, we disclose personal data to third parties in individual cases if this serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims. Possible recipients may be law enforcement agencies, lawyers, auditors, courts, etc.

Insofar as we use service providers for the operation of our website who process personal data on our behalf within the scope of commissioned processing pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR, they may be recipients of your personal data. For more information on the use of processors and web services, please refer to the overview of the individual processing operations.

Do you use cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are sent by us to the browser of your end device during your visit to our website and stored there. As an alternative to the use of cookies, information can also be saved in the local storage of your browser. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies or local storage (technically necessary cookies). Other cookies allow us to perform various analyses, so that we are able to, for example, recognize the browser you are using when you visit our website again and transmit different information to us (nonessential cookies). With the help of cookies, we can, among other things, make our website more user-friendly and effective for you, e.g., by tracking your use of our website and determining your preferred settings (such as country and language settings). If third parties process information via cookies, they collect the information directly from your browser. Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device. They cannot execute programs or contain viruses.

We provide information about the respective services for which we use cookies in the individual processing procedures. You can find detailed information about the cookies used in the cookie settings or in the Consent Manager of this website.

What rights do I have?

Under the conditions of the statutory provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the following rights as a person concerned:

Information pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR about the data stored about you in the form of meaningful information about the details of the processing and a copy of your data;
Correction pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR of incorrect or incomplete data stored by us;

Restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR, insofar as the accuracy of the data is disputed, the processing is unlawful, we no longer need the data and you object to their deletion because you need them for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR.
Data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR, insofar as you have provided us with personal data within the scope of consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or on the basis of a contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR and these have been processed by us with the help of automated methods. You will receive your data in a structured, common, and machine-readable format or we will transfer the data directly to another responsible party, insofar as this is technically feasible.
Objection pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR to the processing of your personal data, insofar as this is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e, f GDPR and there are reasons for this that arise from your particular situation, or the objection is directed against direct advertising. The right to object does not exist if overriding compelling legitimate grounds for the processing are demonstrated or the processing is carried out for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims. Where the right to object does not exist for individual processing operations, this is indicated there.
Revocation pursuant to Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR of your granted consent with effect for the future.

Purpose and legal basis

The processing is carried out to safeguard our overriding legitimate interest in displaying our website and ensuring security and stability on the basis of the Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The collection of data and storage in log files are essential for the operation of the website. There is no right to object to the processing due to the exception under Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR. Insofar as the further storage of log files is required by law, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. There is no legal or contractual obligation to provide the data; however, calling up our website is technically not possible without doing so.

Storage period

The aforementioned data is stored for the duration of the website display.

Newsletter

Type and scope of processing

If you register on our website to receive our newsletter, we collect your e-mail address in addition to your name and store this information together with the date of registration and your IP address. You will then receive an e-mail in which you must confirm your registration for the newsletter (double opt-in).

To send the newsletter, we use a service from Mailchimp, which processes your personal data on our behalf pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. Your data will not be passed on to third parties.

Purpose and legal basis

We process your data for the purpose of sending the newsletter based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

Storage period

After successful confirmation, we store your data until you revoke your consent (unsubscribe from the newsletter).

Presence on social-media platforms

We maintain so-called fan pages or accounts or channels on the networks mentioned below in order to provide you with information and offers also within social networks and to present you with further ways to contact us and find out about our offers. In the following, we inform you about which data we or the respective social network process from you when you call up and use our fan pages/accounts.

Data of yours that we process

If you wish to contact us via messenger or direct message via the respective social network, we generally process your username with which you contact us and, if applicable, store further data provided by you insofar as this is necessary to process/respond to your request.

The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR (processing is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the controller).

(Static) user data we receive from the social networks

We receive automatically provided statistics regarding our accounts via Insights functionalities. The statistics include, among other things, the total number of page views, likes, information on page activities and post interactions, reach, video views, and information on the proportion of men/women among our fans/followers.

The statistics only contain aggregated data that cannot be related to individual persons. You are not identifiable to us through this.

What data of yours the social networks process

To view the content of our fan pages or accounts, you do not have to be a member of the respective social network, and, to this extent, no user account is required for the respective social network.

Please note, however, that when you call up the respective social network, it also collects and stores data from website visitors without a user account (e.g., technical data so as to be able to display the website to you) and uses cookies and similar technologies, over which we have no control. For details, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective social network (see the corresponding links above).

Insofar as you wish to interact with the content on our fan pages/accounts, e.g., comment on, share, or like our postings/contributions and/or contact us via messenger functions, prior registration with the respective social network and the provision of personal data is required.

We have no influence on the data processing by the social networks within the scope of their use by you. To our knowledge, your data is stored and processed in particular in connection with the provision of the services of the respective social network as well as for the analysis of user behavior (using cookies, pixels/web beacons, and similar technologies), on the basis of which advertising according to your interests is displayed both within and outside the respective social network. It cannot be ruled out that your data is stored by the social networks outside the EU/EEA and passed on to third parties.

Information on, among other things, the exact scope and purposes of the processing of your personal data, the storage period/deletion as well as guidelines on the use of cookies and similar technologies in the context of registration and use of the social networks is available in the privacy policy/cookie policy of the social networks.

It is not possible for us to draw conclusions about individual users by means of the statistical information transmitted. We only use this information to respond to the interests of our users and to continuously improve our online presence and ensure its quality.

Should you as a user have given your consent to the data processing to the respective provider of the social network, the legal basis of the processing extends to Art. 6 para. 1 a), Art. 7 GDPR.

Due to the fact that the actual data processing is carried out by the provider of the social network, our access to your data is limited. Only the provider of the social network is authorized to fully access your data. Due to this, only the provider can directly take and implement appropriate measures to fulfill your user rights (information request, deletion request, objection, etc.). The assertion of corresponding rights is therefore most effective when directed at the respective provider.

Together with Facebook, we are responsible for the personal content of the fan page. Data subject rights can be asserted with Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd as well as with us.

According to the GDPR, the primary responsibility for the processing of Insights Data lies with Facebook, and Facebook fulfills all obligations under the GDPR with respect to the processing of Insights Data.
