We collect such personal data via the tracking pixels contained in the mailings in order to optimize the sending of mailings and to better adapt the content of future mailings to the interests of the data subject. This personal data is not passed on to third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to withdraw the separate declaration of consent given in this regard via the double opt-in procedure. After a withdrawal, this personal data will be deleted by the controller. We automatically interpret a cancellation from the receipt of mailings as a withdrawal.

f) If the data processing is based on your consent or within the framework of a contract, you have the right to receive the personal data you have provided, if this does not affect the rights and freedoms of other persons.

g) If we process your data on the basis of a declaration of consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future. The processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal (Article 7 (2) GDPR).

h) You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority at any time if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes applicable law, in particular the GDPR and BDSG (Article 77 GDPR).

We will notify all recipients to whom we have disclosed personal data of any rectification or erasure of your personal data or restriction of the relevant processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. We will inform you of the recipients applicable to you if you request this.

5. In what context do we create automatic profiles?

We do not create automatic profiles.

6. Data transfer to third countries

In some cases, personal data is transferred to recipients in third countries (see in each case the corresponding statement within our privacy policy). Third countries are countries outside the EU and outside the EEA. These third countries also include the USA.

In the USA, there is no comparable level of data protection as in the EU or the EEA. In particular, it is possible that government agencies may access personal data without us or you becoming aware of this. Legal prosecution may not be promising.

The legal basis for such data transfer is generally your consent (Article 49 (1) sentence 1 (a)) GDPR) or a respective contract performance (Article 49 (1) sentence 1 (b)) GDPR) or the use of EU standard data protection clauses (Article 46 (2) (c)) GDPR). You can access these here:

7. Data security

We take appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect the personal data we process against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or against unauthorized access.

We use technical and organizational measures to ensure the confidentiality of your personal data and to protect it against manipulation, loss and destruction. The storage and disclosure of personal data are subject to strict security procedures. Our corresponding employees are trained in data protection law. They only access personal data to the extent necessary.
