3. DATA COLLECTION ON THIS WEBSITE

3.1 GENERAL NOTES

STORAGE PERIOD

Unless a more specific storage period has been mentioned within this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent for data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be deleted after these reasons no longer apply.

SERVICE PROVIDERS AND ORDER PROCESSING CONTRACTS

In order to be able to organize our operations efficiently, we use the services of external service providers who may receive personal data from you in order to fulfill the purposes described. We select these service providers carefully and monitor them regularly, in particular the careful handling and safeguarding of the data stored by them.

If our service providers process personal data on our behalf, we conclude a so-called order processing agreement (AVV) with them. This is a contract required by data protection law, which ensures that they only process the personal data of our website visitors in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR. The service provider will only process your data to the extent necessary to fulfill its service obligations.

External hosting

This website is hosted by an external service provider (hoster) with whom we have concluded an order processing agreement. The personal data collected on this website is stored on the hoster’s servers. This may include, but is not limited to, IP addresses, contact requests, meta and communication data, contractual data, contact data, names, website accesses and other data generated via a website.

The hoster is used for the purpose of fulfilling contracts with our potential and existing customers (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO) and in the interest of a secure, fast and efficient provision of our online offer by a professional provider (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO).

We use the following hoster:

3Dreams Medienagentur
Augustenstraße 19
93049 Regensburg
Germany

DATA TRANSFER TO THE USA AND OTHER THIRD COUNTRIES

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries (i.S.v. outside the European Economic Area (EEA)). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these third countries. Processing in third countries may also take place at our service providers.

We point out that unless the EU Commission has taken a so-called adequacy decision pursuant to Art.45 DSGVO, there is no level of data protection in these third countries comparable to the EU. Additional security measures, so-called appropriate safeguards in the sense of Art.46 DSGVO (e.g. through the use of the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses), are provided for in the contracts with these companies or the transfer will take place on the basis of your consent.

SSL OR TLS ENCRYPTION

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

3.2 SERVER LOG FILES

When you visit our website, your browser stores information in so-called server log files, which are automatically transmitted to us. These are:

• browser type and browser version
• Operating system used
• referrer URL
• Host name of the accessing computer
• Time of the server request
• IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website – for this purpose, the server log files must be collected.

3.3 CONTACT FORM

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your data from the inquiry form, including the contact data you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO, if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) if this has been requested.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your request). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

3.5 NEWSLETTER

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified e-mail address and agree to receive the newsletter. Further data is not collected or only on a voluntary basis. For the processing of the newsletter, we use newsletter service providers, which are described below.

MAILCHIMP WITH DEACTIVATED PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT

This website uses the services of MailChimp for sending newsletters. The provider is Rocket Science Group LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Suite 5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA. We have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider.

MailChimp is a service with which, among other things, the sending of newsletters can be organized. When you enter data for the purpose of receiving newsletters (e.g. e-mail address), this data is stored on MailChimp’s servers in the USA. We have deactivated performance measurement with Mailchimp, so Mailchimp will not evaluate your behavior when opening our newsletters.

If you do not want your data to be transferred to Mailchimp, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message.

The data processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you have provided to us for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data that has been stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.

After you have unsubscribed from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO). The storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You can object to this storage (For more information on the right to object, see below).

The data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://mailchimp.com/eu-us-data-transfer-statement/ and https://mailchimp.com/legal/data-processing-addendum/#Annex_C_-_Standard_Contractual_Clauses.

For details, please refer to the privacy policy of MailChimp at: https://mailchimp.com/legal/terms/.

4. INQUIRY BY E-MAIL, TELEPHONE OR TELEFAX

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your inquiry including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO, if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests sent to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) if this has been requested.

The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular legal retention periods – remain unaffected.

6. ANALYSIS AND ADVERTISING TOOLS

6.1 GOOGLE TAG MANAGER

We use the Google Tag Manager. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Tag Manager is a tool that allows us to embed tracking or statistical tools and other technologies on our website. The Google Tag Manager itself does not create user profiles and does not perform any independent analyses. It is only used to manage and play out the tools integrated via it. However, the Google Tag Manager collects your IP address, which may also be transmitted to Google’s parent company in the United States.

The Google Tag Manager is only used after your consent (consent to store statistics cookies or marketing cookies), on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO; the consent can be revoked at any time.

For more information about the processing of data with Google Tag Manager, please visit: https://support.google.com/tagmanager/answer/9323295?hl=de

Further information about data processing can also be found in Google’s privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de

6.2 GOOGLE ANALYTICS

This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyze the behavior of website visitors. In doing so, the website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, length of stay, operating systems used and the origin of the user. This data may be summarized by Google in a profile that is assigned to the respective user or their end device.

Furthermore, Google Analytics may record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks, among other things. Furthermore, Google Analytics uses various modeling approaches to supplement the collected data sets and uses machine learning technologies in the data analysis.

Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of the user for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

This analysis tool is only used with your consent (consent to store statistics cookies or marketing cookies), based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO; consent can be revoked at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

For more information on data processing, please see Google’s privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de

IP ANONYMIZATION

We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. This means that your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with any other data held by Google.

BROWSER PLUGIN

You can also prevent the collection and processing of your data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

For more information on how Google Analytics handles user data, please see Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

ORDER PROCESSING AGREEMENT

We have concluded an order processing contract with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS ON GOOGLE ANALYTICS

This website uses the “demographic characteristics” feature of Google Analytics in order to display suitable advertisements to website visitors within the Google advertising network. This allows reports to be generated that include statements about the age, gender, and interests of site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google as well as from visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person.

GOOGLE ANALYTICS E-COMMERCE TRACKING

This website uses the “e-commerce tracking” function of Google Analytics. E-commerce tracking allows the website operator to analyze the purchasing behavior of website visitors in order to improve its online marketing campaigns. This involves recording information such as orders placed, average order values, shipping costs and the time from viewing to purchasing a product. This data can be summarized by Google under a transaction ID that is assigned to the respective user or their device.

STORAGE PERIOD

Data stored by Google at user and event level that is linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g. User ID) or advertising IDs (e.g. DoubleClick cookies, Android advertising ID) is anonymized or deleted after 2 months. For details, please see the following link: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7667196?hl=de

6.3 GOOGLE ADS

The website operator uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising program of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Ads enables us to play advertisements in the Google search engine or on third-party websites when the user enters certain search terms on Google (keyword targeting). Furthermore, targeted advertisements can be played on the basis of user data available at Google (e.g. location data and interests) (target group targeting). As the website operator, we can evaluate this data quantitatively by analyzing, for example, which search terms have led to the display of our advertisements and how many ads have resulted in corresponding clicks.

Google Ads is only used with your consent (consent to store statistics cookies and marketing cookies), based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO; consent can be revoked at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

Further information on data processing can be found in Google’s privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de

GOOGLE REMARKETING

This website uses the Google Remarketing function of Google Ads. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Remarketing analyzes your user behavior on our website (e.g. clicking on certain products) in order to classify you in certain advertising target groups and subsequently play suitable advertising messages to you when you visit other online offers (remarketing or retargeting).

Furthermore, the advertising target groups created with Google Remarketing can be linked with Google’s cross-device functions. In this way, interest-based, personalized advertising messages that have been adapted to you depending on your previous usage and surfing behavior on one end device (e.g. cell phone) can also be displayed on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

GOOGLE CONVERSION TRACKING

This website uses the Google Conversion Tracking function of Google Ads.

With the help of Google conversion tracking, Google and we can recognize whether the user has performed certain actions. For example, we can evaluate which buttons on our website were clicked and how often, and which products were viewed or purchased particularly frequently. This information is used to create conversion statistics. We learn the total number of users who clicked on our ads and what actions they took. We do not receive any information with which we can personally identify the user. Google itself uses cookies or comparable recognition technologies for identification.

Google conversion tracking is only used after your consent (consent to store statistics cookies), on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO; consent can be revoked at any time.

7. ADOBE FONTS

This website uses web fonts from Adobe for the uniform display of certain fonts. The provider is Adobe Systems Incorporated, 345 Park Avenue, San Jose, CA 95110-2704, USA (Adobe).

When you access this website, your browser loads the required fonts directly from Adobe so that they can be displayed correctly on your terminal device. In doing so, your browser establishes a connection to Adobe’s servers in the USA. This enables Adobe to know that your IP address has been used to access this website.

The storage and analysis of the data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the uniform presentation of the typeface on its website.

The data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://www.adobe.com/de/privacy/eudatatransfers.html.

For more information on Adobe Fonts, please visit: https://www.adobe.com/de/privacy/policies/adobe-fonts.html.

Adobe’s privacy policy can be found at: https://www.adobe.com/de/privacy/policy.html.

8. YOUR RIGHTS

RIGHT TO WITHDRAW YOUR CONSENT

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

INFORMATION, DELETION AND CORRECTION

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time.

RIGHT OF OBJECTION (ART. 21 DSGVO).

If the data processing is based on art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f DSGVO, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this data protection statement. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims (objection pursuant to art. 21 para. 1 DSGVO ).

If their personal data are processed for the purposes of direct marketing, they have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning them for the purposes of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for the purpose of direct marketing (objection pursuant to art. 21 para. 2 DSGVO ).

RIGHT TO RESTRICTION OF PROCESSING

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. For this purpose, you can contact us at any time. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data happened/is happening unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, a balancing of your and our interests must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may – apart from being stored – only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

RIGHT TO DATA PORTABILITY

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.

RIGHT OF COMPLAINT TO THE COMPETENT SUPERVISORY AUTHORITY

We always try to process your inquiries and claims as quickly as possible in order to protect your rights accordingly. However, depending on the frequency of requests, it may take up to 30 days before we can further inform you about your concern. If it takes longer, we will notify you promptly of the reasons for the delay and discuss the next steps with you.

In some cases, we may or may not be able to provide you with information. If legally permissible, we will inform you of the reason for the refusal to provide information.

If you are still not satisfied with our answers and responses or believe that we are violating applicable data protection law, you are free to file a complaint with both our data protection officer and the competent supervisory authority. The supervisory authority responsible for us is:
