Overview of processing

The following overview summarizes the types of data processed and the purposes for which they are processed, and refers to the data subjects.
Types of data processed

• Content data (e.g., text entries, photographs, videos)
• Meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses)
• Usage data (e.g., websites visited, interest in content, access times).

Categories of data subjects

• Users (e.g., website visitors, users of online services).

Relevant legal bases

Below, we share the legal bases of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) on the basis of which we process personal data. Please note that, in addition to the provisions of the GDPR, national data protection regulations in your or our country of residence or registered office may apply. If more specific legal bases are relevant in individual cases, we will inform you of this in the privacy policy.

Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) - The data subject has given consent to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.
Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) - Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data.

National data protection regulations in Germany: In addition to the data protection regulations of the General Data Protection Regulation, national data protection regulations apply in Germany. These include, in particular, the Act on the Protection against Misuse of Personal Data in Data Processing (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz – BDSG). The BDSG contains, in particular, special regulations on the right to information, the right to erasure, the right to object, the processing of special categories of personal data, processing for other purposes and transfer, and automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling. It also regulates data processing for employment purposes (Section 26 BDSG), in particular with regard to the establishment, implementation, or termination of employment relationships and the consent of employees. Furthermore, state data protection laws of the individual federal states may apply.

Security measures

In accordance with legal requirements, we take appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk, taking into account the state of the art, implementation costs, and the nature, scope, circumstances, and purposes of the processing, as well as the varying likelihood and severity of threats to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

These measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as access, input, transfer, availability, and separation. Furthermore, we have established procedures to ensure that the rights of data subjects are exercised, data is deleted, and responses are made to threats to data. Furthermore, we take the protection of personal data into account as early as the development or selection of hardware, software, and procedures in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design and data protection-friendly default settings.

Transfer and disclosure of personal data

In the course of our processing of personal data, it may happen that the data is transferred to or disclosed to other bodies, companies, legally independent organizational units, or persons. The recipients of this data may include, for example, payment institutions in the context of payment transactions, service providers commissioned with IT tasks, or providers of services and content that are integrated into a website. In such cases, we comply with the legal requirements and, in particular, conclude appropriate contracts or agreements with the recipients of your data that serve to protect your data.

Data processing in third countries

If we process data in a third country (i.e., outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if the processing takes place in the context of the use of third-party services or the disclosure or transfer of data to other persons, bodies, or companies, this is only done in accordance with the legal requirements.

Subject to express consent or transfer required by contract or law, we only process or allow the data to be processed in third countries with a recognized level of data protection, or on the basis of special guarantees, such as contractual obligations through so-called standard protection clauses of the EU Commission, the existence of certifications or binding internal data protection regulations (Art. 44 to 49 GDPR, information page of the EU Commission: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection_de ).

Use of cookies

Cookies are text files that contain data from visited websites or domains and are stored by a browser on the user's computer. A cookie is primarily used to store information about a user during or after their visit to an online offering. The stored information may include, for example, the language settings on a website, the login status, a shopping cart, or the location where a video was viewed. We also include other technologies that perform the same functions as cookies (e.g., when user information is stored using pseudonymous online identifiers, also known as “user IDs”) under the term “cookies.”

The following types of cookies and functions are distinguished:

• Temporary cookies (also known as session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user leaves an online offering and closes their browser.
• Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after the browser is closed. This allows, for example, the login status to be saved or preferred content to be displayed directly when the user visits a website again. Similarly, the interests of users, which are used for reach measurement or marketing purposes, can be stored in such a cookie.
• First-party cookies: First-party cookies are set by us.
• Third-party cookies: Third-party cookies are mainly used by advertisers (so-called third parties) to process user information.
• Necessary (also: essential or absolutely necessary) cookies: Cookies may be absolutely necessary for the operation of a website (e.g., to store logins or other user entries or for security reasons) .
• Statistics, marketing, and personalization cookies: Cookies are also generally used for reach measurement and when a user's interests or behavior (e.g., viewing certain content, using functions, etc.) on individual websites are stored in a user profile. Such profiles are used, for example, to display content to users that corresponds to their potential interests. This process is also referred to as “tracking,” i.e., tracking the potential interests of users. If we use cookies or “tracking” technologies, we will inform you separately in our privacy policy or when obtaining your consent.

Information on legal bases: The legal basis on which we process your personal data using cookies depends on whether we ask for your consent. If this is the case and you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis for the processing of your data is your declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed using cookies will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g., in the economic operation of our online offering and its improvement) or, if the use of cookies is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations.

Storage period: Unless we provide you with explicit information about the storage period for permanent cookies (e.g., in the context of a so-called cookie opt-in), please assume that the storage period can be up to two years.

General information on revocation and objection (opt-out): Depending on whether the processing is based on consent or legal permission, you have the option of revoking your consent at any time or objecting to the processing of your data by cookie technologies (collectively referred to as “opt-out”). You can initially declare your objection by adjusting your browser settings, e.g., by deactivating the use of cookies (although this may also restrict the functionality of our online offering). An objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can also be declared via a variety of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the websites https://optout.aboutads.info and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/. In addition, you can obtain further information on objection within the scope of the information on the service providers and cookies used.

Processing cookie data based on consent: Before we process or have data processed in connection with the use of cookies, we ask users for their consent, which can be revoked at any time. Until consent has been given, only cookies that are necessary for the operation of our online offering are used. Their use is based on our interest and the interest of users in the expected functionality of our online offering.

• Types of data processed: Usage data (e.g., websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses).
• Data subjects: Users (e.g., website visitors, users of online services).
• Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Provision of online services and web hosting

In order to provide our online services securely and efficiently, we use the services of one or more web hosting providers whose servers (or servers managed by them) can be used to access our online services. For these purposes, we may use infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space, and database services, as well as security and technical maintenance services.

The data processed in the context of providing the hosting service may include all information relating to the users of our online services that is generated in the course of use and communication. This regularly includes the IP address, which is necessary to deliver the content of online offerings to browsers, and all entries made within our online offering or on websites.

Collection of access data and log files: We ourselves (or our web hosting provider) collect data on each access to the server (so-called server log files). Server log files may include the address and name of the websites and files accessed, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page) and, as a rule, IP addresses and the requesting provider.

The server log files can be used for security purposes, e.g., to prevent server overload (especially in the case of malicious attacks, known as DDoS attacks), and to ensure server utilization and stability.

• Types of data processed: Content data (e.g., text entries, photographs, videos), usage data (e.g., websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses).
• Data subjects: Users (e.g., website visitors, users of online services).
• Legal basis: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).

Deletion of data

The data we process will be deleted in accordance with legal requirements as soon as the consents permitting its processing are revoked or other permissions cease to apply (e.g., if the purpose of processing this data no longer applies or it is not necessary for the purpose).

If the data is not deleted because it is required for other, legally permissible purposes, its processing will be restricted to these purposes. This means that the data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax reasons or whose storage is necessary for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person.

Further information on the deletion of personal data can also be found in the individual data protection notices in this privacy policy.
Changes and updates to the privacy policy

We ask you to regularly review the content of our privacy policy. We will amend the privacy policy as soon as changes to the data processing we carry out make this necessary. We will inform you as soon as the changes require your cooperation (e.g., consent) or other individual notification.

If we provide addresses and contact information for companies and organizations in this privacy policy, please note that the addresses may change over time and check the information before contacting them.
