4. General Data Processing

4.1 Scope of processing of personal data

We process the personal data of our users only insofar as it is necessary to provide an operational website, as well as content and services. The processing of our users’ personal data is subject to the consent of the user. An exception applies in those cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for genuine reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by statutory provisions.

4.2 Legal basis for the processing of personal data

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

Art. 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR serves as a legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the fulfilment of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This will also apply to processing operations necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In the event that overriding interests of the data subject or another natural person necessitate the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the 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 override the aforementioned interest, Art. 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

4.3 Data deletion and storage duration

The personal data of the person concerned will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for storage no longer applies. Storage may also take place if the EU or domestic legislator has provided for this in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the data controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if the storage period prescribed by the above standards expires, unless it is necessary for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

9 Email marketing

9.1 Description and scope of data processing

We use the HubSpot service to carry out our online marketing measures. The provider is HubSpot, Inc., 25 First St., 2nd floor, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02141. HubSpot is also available within the European Union, and the current, relevant contact details can be found here: https://www.hubspot.com/company/contact. You can find more information about data protection by this provider here: https://www.hubspot.de/data-privacy/gdpr and https://legal.hubspot.com/de/privacy-policy.

With this tool, we carry out various online marketing measures described in this privacy policy, including:

•  Email marketing (newsletters and automated mailings, e.g. for providing information material)
• Contact management (e.g. storage of contact data for contact purposes)
• Provision of online forms to subscribe to newslettersProvision of information material
• Newsletter subscription
• Requests via the chat tool

9.2 Legal basis for data processing

In this regard, we refer to the respective statements regarding the detailed online marketing measures, which we supplement by the following information:

We only send newsletters and automated mailings (“mailings”) after your corresponding subscription, i.e. with your consent, on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR. If the content of the mailings (i.e. the advertised goods and services) is specifically described in the context of the registration, it is decisive for the scope of the consent. In addition, our mailings contain information about our products, offers, promotions, and/or our company.

You can subscribe via the so-called double opt-in procedure, i.e. you will receive an email after your subscription, in which you will be asked to confirm your subscription, in order to prevent any misuse of your email address. Subscription to our mailings is logged by us, in order to prove the subscription process complies with legal requirements, and to prevent or clarify any misuse of your personal data. The logging of the subscription process takes place on the basis of our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR within a user-friendly and secure mailing system, in order to be able to prove the subscription process and the consent given at a later date.

You can revoke your consent to receiving our mailings at any time, notably by unsubscribing. An unsubscribe link to exercise this right can be found at the end of each email.

If we obtain your consent for certain online marketing measures, the legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. Insofar as the data processing is carried out for the fulfilment of a contract with you, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR. Furthermore, data processing is based on the legal basis of Article 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR, according to which the processing of personal data is also possible without the consent of the data subject if the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, unless the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, which require the protection of personal data, prevail. Here we invoke our interest in direct advertising in accordance with Recital 47 of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest derives from the fact that we can ensure the effectiveness of the campaigns we create and the effective use of the resources deployed for this purpose through specific online marketing measures. In addition, you will only receive advertising that is potentially relevant and of interest to you.

9.3 Purposes of data processing

Our mailings contain so-called tracking pixels (web bugs), which enable us to see if and when an email was opened, and which links in the email were followed by the personalised recipient. This information is used for the technical improvement of our newsletter on the basis of technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior, based on their location (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or access times. The evaluations also serve to recognise the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users. The data collected in this way is used to send personalised marketing emails to the respective recipient.

For individual email campaigns, we also use a selection from the recipient’s circle on the basis of data and information determined and qualified by us (such as your expressed interest in individual topics, your address/region, etc.) in order to be able to offer you goods and services that match your interests. You will then only receive advertising that is potentially relevant and of interest to you.

9.4 Duration of storage

The data collected and otherwise processed in this way will be stored and processed on the servers of this provider until you revoke your consent. HubSpot acts as our processor and processes the data exclusively in accordance with our instructions. You can find more information about the various possible applications here: https://www.hubspot.de/.

9.5 Objection and removal options

Your rights are protected by the fact that we have made the processing operations here transparent and that you can object to any processing by HubSpot. If you do not want HubSpot to collect your data, you can prevent the storage of cookies at any time through your browser settings or by using the following opt-out link: HubSpot opt-out link.

We have carefully selected this provider and have contractually bound them accordingly. This commissioning does not prevent the provider from processing the data outside the European Union or from being headquartered outside of it. The contractual instruments governing the commissioning of HubSpot contain the EU standard contractual clauses so that the commissioning is possible in accordance with Article 46 of the GDPR. You can find the contract document here: https://legal.hubspot.com/en/dpa.

You have the right to be informed of such recipients vis-à-vis the data controller.

14.6 Right to data portability

You have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided to the data controller in a structured, common and machine-readable format.

• processing is carried out using automated procedures.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to request that your personal data be transmitted directly by one data controller to another, insofar as this is technically feasible. Freedoms and rights of third parties shall not be affected by this.

The right to data transfer does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the data controller.

14.9 Automated decisions in individual cases including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to any decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that has any legal effect on you or affects you significantly in a similar way. This will not apply if the decision

• is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the data controller,
• is authorised by EU or Member State law to which the data controller is subject and contains adequate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, or
• is made with your explicit consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data under Art. 9 (1) of the GDPR, unless Art. 9 (2) (a) or (g) of the GDPR applies, and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data controller shall take appropriate measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the data controller, to a statement of his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

14.10 Right to appeal to a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or legal remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your place of residence, your place of work or the place of the suspected infringement, if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint was submitted will inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the option for a legal remedy under Article 78 of the GDPR.
