General information on data processing

Scope of personal data processing

We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and to provide our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users takes place regularly only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for practical reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) point b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In the event that the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

Data erasure and storage duration

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Storage beyond this period is possible if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data also takes place when a storage period prescribed by the standards mentioned expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

Provision of the website and creation of log files

Description and scope of data processing

Every time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the accessing computer system.

The following data is collected:

1. Information about the browser type and version used
2. The user’s operating system
3. The user’s internet service provider
4. the user’s IP address
5. date and time of access
6. websites from which the user’s system accesses our website
7. websites that are accessed by the user’s system via our website

The data is also stored in our system’s log files. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the website to be delivered to the user’s computer. To do this, the user’s IP address must be kept for the duration of the session.

The storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data is used for technical optimisation of the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

These purposes also include our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Duration of storage

The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of data collection for the purpose of providing the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

If the data are stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. It is possible to store the data for a longer period. In this case, the users’ IP addresses are deleted or anonymised so that they can no longer be assigned to the accessing client.

Objection and removal options

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is essential for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no right of objection on the part of the user.

Use of cookies

Description and extent of data processing

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in or by the user’s internet browser on the user’s computer system. When a user visits a website, a cookie may be stored on the user’s operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string of characters that enables the browser to be clearly identified when the website is accessed again.

We use cookies to make our website functional. Some elements of our website require that the accessing browser can be identified even after a page change.

The following data is stored and transmitted in the cookies:

1. Website content
2. Language setting of the visitor
3. Design settings of the visitor (e.g. light or dark design)

Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using technically necessary cookies within the meaning of Art. 25 (2) TDDDG is Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR.

Purpose of data processing

The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to enable users to use websites. Some of our website’s functions cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For these, it is necessary that the browser be recognised even after a page change.

We need cookies for the following applications:

1. Language settings
2. Design settings
3. Website content and search

The user data collected by technically necessary cookies are not used to create user profiles.

These purposes also include our legitimate interest in the subsequent processing of personal data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR.

Duration of storage, right to object and opt out

Cookies are stored on the user’s computer and transmitted to our site by the user’s computer. Therefore, you as a user also have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your internet browser, you can disable or restrict the storage of cookies. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are disabled for our website, it is possible that not all of the website’s functions can be used to their full extent.

Influencer registration

Description and scope of data processing

On our website, we offer users the opportunity to register as commercial influencers by providing personal data. The data is entered into an input mask and transmitted to us and stored. The data is not passed on to third parties. The following data is collected during the registration process:

1. Personal data
2. Postal addresses
3. Contact details
4. Profile data on social media platforms

At the time of registration, the following data is also stored:

1. The user’s IP address
2. Date and time of registration

As part of the registration process, the user’s consent to the processing of this data is obtained.

Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the processing of the data is the consent of the user in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR.

If the registration serves the fulfilment of a contract to which the user is a party or the implementation of pre-contractual measures, the additional legal basis for the processing of the data is Article 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR.

Purpose of data processing

User registration is required for the fulfilment of a contract with the user or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

Duration of storage

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected.

This is the case for data collected during the registration process for the fulfilment of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures when the data is no longer required for the fulfilment of the contract. Even after the contract has been concluded, it may still be necessary to store personal data of the contractual partner in order to fulfil contractual or legal obligations. The user can also consent to the data being stored beyond the contractual period. The user can request the deletion of the data at any time, provided that there are no legal obligations to retain it.

Objection and removal option

As a user, you have the option to cancel the registration at any time. You can have the data stored about you changed at any time.

If the data is required for the fulfilment of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, premature deletion of the data is only possible insofar as no contractual or legal obligations prevent deletion.

E-mail contact

Description and scope of data processing

It is possible to make contact via the e-mail addresses provided. In this case, the user’s personal data transmitted by email will be stored.

The data will not be passed on to third parties in this context. The data will be used exclusively for the purpose of processing the conversation.

Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the processing of the data is the consent of the user Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR. If the e-mail contact aims at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) point b GDPR.

Purpose of the data processing

We process personal data provided in e-mails only for the purpose of communicating with the user.

Duration of storage

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. For the personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.

The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of one month at the latest.

Objection and removal option

The user has the option at any time to revoke his consent to the processing of personal data. If the user contacts us by email, he can object to the storage of his personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued.

The withdrawal of consent must be made in writing to one of the options listed above in the chapter ‘Address of the controller’. All personal data stored in the course of establishing contact will be deleted in this case.

Where the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged pursuant to Article 17(1) of the GDPR to erase the personal data, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data, as far as processing is not required. 17 (1) of the GDPR, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data.

Exceptions

The right to erasure does not apply to the extent that processing is necessary

1. for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;

5. for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Right to notification

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to communicate any rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

You have the right to request the data controller to be informed about these recipients.

Right to object

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.
