Privacy policy for newsletter distribution with rapidmail

If you subscribe to our company’s newsletter, the data in the respective input mask will be transmitted to the controller. The registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration, you will receive an e-mail in which you are asked to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with other people’s e-mail addresses. When registering for the newsletter, the user’s IP address and the date and time of registration are stored. This serves to prevent misuse of the services or the e-mail address of the person concerned. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter. The subscription to the newsletter can be terminated at any time. Likewise, consent to the storage of personal data can be revoked at any time. For this purpose, a corresponding link can be found in each newsletter.

The legal basis for the processing of data after registration for the newsletter by the user is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR, if the user has given his consent. The legal basis for sending the newsletter as a result of the sale of goods or services is § 7 (3) UWG.

Among other things, rapidmail is used to organize and analyze the dispatch of newsletters. The data entered by you for the purpose of receiving the newsletter is stored on rapidmail’s servers in Germany. If you do not want any analysis by rapidmail, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in each newsletter message. For the purpose of analysis, the e-mails sent with rapidmail contain a so-called tracking pixel, which connects to the servers of rapidmail when the e-mail is opened. In this way, it can be determined whether a newsletter message has been opened. Furthermore, with the help of rapidmail, we can determine whether and which links in the newsletter message are clicked.

Legal basis: The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

Recipient: The recipient of the data is rapidmail GmbH.

Transmission to third countries: There is no transfer of data to third countries.

Duration: The data stored by us as part of your consent for the purpose of the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and deleted from both our servers and the servers of rapidmail after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data stored by us for other purposes (e.g. e-mail addresses for the member area) remain unaffected by this.

Possibility of revocation: You have the possibility to revoke your consent to data processing with effect for the future at any time. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

Further data protection information: For more details, please refer to the data security notices of rapidmail at: https://www.rapidmail.de/datensicherheit.

Facebook data protection officer

The data controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

When you access an Instagram page, the IP address assigned to your terminal equipment is transmitted to Instagram/ Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymized (for “German” IP addresses) and deleted after 90 days. Facebook also stores information about the end devices of its users (e.g. as part of the function “Login notification” function); if necessary, Facebook is thus able to assign IP addresses to individual users.

If you are currently logged in to Instagram as a user, a cookie with your Instagram ID is located on your end device. This enables Facebook to track that you have visited this page and how you have used it. This also applies to all other Instagram pages. Via Instagram buttons embedded in websites, it is possible for Facebook to record your visits to these website pages and assign them to your Instagram profile. Based on this data, content or advertising can be offered tailored to you.

If you want to avoid this, you should log out of Instagram & Facebook or deactivate the “stay logged in” function, delete the cookies present on your device and exit and restart your browser. In this way, Instagram & Facebook information through which you can be directly identified will be deleted. This will allow you to use our Instagram page without revealing your identifier. When you access interactive features of the page (like, comment, share, message, etc.), a login screen will appear.

After any login, you will again be recognizable to Instagram/ Facebook as a specific user.
