NOTES ON THE NEWSLETTER AND CONSENT
The following information explains the contents of our newsletter as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedures and your rights of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to receive it and to the procedures described.
CONTENT OF THE NEWSLETTER
We send newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications with promotional information (hereinafter “newsletter”) only with the consent of the recipients or a legal permission. If the contents of the Newsletter are specifically described in the context of a registration, they are decisive for the consent of the users.
DOUBLE-OPT-IN AND LOGGING
Registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double-opt-in process. This means that after registration you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with other e-mail addresses.
The registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the registration and confirmation time, as well as the IP address. Changes to your data stored by Newsletter2Go are also logged.
USE OF THE DISPATCH SERVICE PROVIDER “NEWSLETTER2GO”.
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.
We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to ensure that the newsletter is sent with your consent. In the course of this, the potential recipient allows himself to be included in a distribution list. Subsequently, the user is given the opportunity to confirm the registration in a legally secure manner by means of a confirmation e-mail. Only if the confirmation is received, the address will be actively included in the distribution list.
We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and offers.
Newsletter2Go is used as the newsletter software. Your data will be transmitted to Newsletter2Go GmbH. Newsletter2Go is prohibited from selling your data and using it for purposes other than sending newsletters. Newsletter2Go is a German, certified provider, which was selected in accordance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation and the Federal Data Protection Act.
You can find more information here: https://www.newsletter2go.de/informationen-newsletter-empfaenger/
You can revoke your consent to the storage of data, the e-mail address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter.
The data protection measures are always subject to technical updates, for this reason we ask you to inform yourself about our data protection measures at regular intervals by consulting our privacy policy.
REGISTRATION DATA
To subscribe to the newsletter, it is sufficient to provide your email address.
STATISTICAL COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
The newsletters contain a so-called “web-beacon”, i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the Newsletter2Go server when the newsletter is opened. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and the time of the retrieval are initially collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times.
The statistical surveys also include the determination of whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our intention nor that of Newsletter2Go to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize 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.
ONLINE ACCESS AND DATA MANAGEMENT
There are cases where we direct newsletter recipients to MailChimp’s websites. For example, our newsletters contain a link that newsletter recipients can use to access the newsletters online (e.g., in case of display problems in the email program). Furthermore, newsletter recipients can subsequently correct their data, such as the e-mail address. Likewise, the privacy policy of Newsletter2Go is only available on their site.
In this context, we pointed out that cookies are used on the websites of Newsletter2Go and thus personal data is processed by MailChimp, their partners and service providers used (e.g. Google Analytics). We have no influence on this data collection. You can find more information in the privacy policy of Newsletter2Go. We also draw your attention to the options for objecting to the collection of data for advertising purposes on the websites https://www.aboutads.info/choices/ and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/ (for the European region).
CANCELLATION/REVOCATION
You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. This will simultaneously terminate your consents to its dispatch via MailChimp and the statistical analyses. A separate revocation of the dispatch via MailChimp or the statistical analysis is unfortunately not possible.
You will find a link to cancel the newsletter at the end of each newsletter.
LEGAL BASIS BASIC DATA PROTECTION REGULATION
In accordance with the requirements of the Basic Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) applicable as of May 25, 2018, we inform you that the consent to the sending of email addresses is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, 7 DSGVO as well as § 7 para. 2 No. 3, or para. 3 UWG. The use of the dispatch service provider MailChimp, implementation of statistical surveys and analyses as well as logging of the registration process, are carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Our interest is directed towards the use of a user-friendly as well as secure newsletter system that serves our business interests as well as meets the expectations of the users.
We would also like to point out that you can object to the future processing of your personal data in accordance with the legal requirements pursuant to Art. 21 DSGVO at any time. The objection can be made in particular against the processing for purposes of direct advertising.
