We send newsletters, e-mails and other electronic messages (the following “newsletter“) only with the explicit consent of the recipients. Our newsletters contain information about our services and our company.

Registering for our newsletters is only possible with a double-opt-in procedure. This means that after registration you receive an e-mail which asks you to confirm your registration. Registrations are stored, as proof that the registration process is according to the valid legal regulations. The data retained in this process is the time of registration and confirmation as well as the IP address. Likewise, all changes to your personal data are stored by the service provider.

The processing of this information is restricted to countering possible claims by former subscribers. An individual request for erasure is possible at all times provided that the existence of prior consent is confirmed at the same time.

Recording the registration process is conducted on the basis of our legitimate interest in demonstrating that the registration process has been conducted in accordance with the law.

Our newsletters are sent on the basis of consent given by the recipient, or if consent is not required, on the basis of our legitimate interest in direct marketing activities insofar as these are lawful, e.g. in the case where advertising to existing customers is permissible. If we commission a service provider to send e-mails, this is done on the basis of our legitimate interests.
