Use of customer data for direct advertising

1. Registration for our e-mail newsletter

   
   If you register for our e-mail newsletter, we will regularly send you information about our offers. The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your e-mail address. The provision of further data is voluntary and is used to address you personally. We use the so-called double opt-in procedure for sending the newsletter. This means that we will only send you an e-mail newsletter if you have expressly confirmed to us that you consent to receiving the newsletter. We will then send you a confirmation email asking you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter in future by clicking on a corresponding link.
   By activating the confirmation link, you give us your consent to the use of your personal data in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. When you register for the newsletter, we store your IP address entered by the Internet service provider (ISP) as well as the date and time of registration in order to be able to trace any possible misuse of your email address at a later date. The data collected by us when you register for the newsletter will be used exclusively for the purposes of advertising by means of the newsletter. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the link provided in the newsletter or by sending a message to the controller named at the beginning. Once you have unsubscribed, your e-mail address will be deleted from our newsletter distribution list immediately, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use data beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this declaration.

2. Sending the e-mail newsletter to existing customers
   If you have provided us with your e-mail address when purchasing goods or services, we reserve the right to regularly send you offers for similar goods or services to those you have already purchased from our range by e-mail. In accordance with Section 7 (3) UWG, we do not need to obtain separate consent from you for this. In this respect, data processing is carried out solely on the basis of our legitimate interest in personalized direct advertising in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If you have initially objected to the use of your email address for this purpose, we will not send you any emails.

   
   You are entitled to object to the use of your email address for the aforementioned advertising purpose at any time with effect for the future by sending a message to the controller named at the beginning. You will only incur transmission costs for this in accordance with the basic rates. Upon receipt of your objection, the use of your e-mail address for advertising purposes will be discontinued immediately.

3. Newsletter dispatch via Mailjet

   
   Our e-mail newsletters are sent via this provider: Mailjet GmbH, c/o Workrepublic, Berliner Allee 26, 40212 Düsseldorf, Germany. On the basis of our legitimate interest in effective and user-friendly newsletter marketing, we pass on the data you provide when registering for the newsletter to this provider in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR so that they can send the newsletter on our behalf. Subject to your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, the provider also carries out a statistical evaluation of the success of newsletter campaigns using web beacons or tracking pixels in the emails sent, which can measure opening rates and specific interactions with the content of the newsletter. End device information (e.g. time of access, IP address, browser type and operating system) is also collected and evaluated, but not merged with other data sets. You can revoke your consent to newsletter tracking at any time with effect for the future.
   We have concluded an order processing contract with the provider, which protects the data of our website visitors and prohibits disclosure to third parties.

4. Advertising by post
   On the basis of our legitimate interest in personalized direct advertising, we reserve the right to use your first and last name, your postal address and - if we have received this additional information from you as part of the contractual relationship - your title, academic degree, year of birth and your professional, industry or business name in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR and to use them to send you interesting offers and information about our products by post.
   You can object to the storage and use of your data for this purpose at any time.

Web analysis services

This website uses a web analysis service from the following provider: InnoCraft Ltd, 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand, ("Matomo")
Pseudonymized user profiles can be created and evaluated from this data for the same purpose. Cookies can be used for this purpose. Cookies are small text files that are stored locally in the cache of the website visitor's Internet browser. Among other things, cookies make it possible to recognize the Internet browser. If data collected using Matomo technology (including your pseudonymized IP address) is transferred to Matomo servers in New Zealand and processed for usage analysis purposes, we hereby inform you that the European Commission has issued a so-called adequacy decision for New Zealand, which certifies compliance with European data protection standards for international data transfers.
The pseudonymized information generated by the cookie is not used to personally identify the visitor to this website and is not merged with personal data about the bearer of the pseudonym. If data is also transferred to the provider's server and the web analysis service has not been installed locally on our server, we have concluded an order processing contract with the provider that ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Site functionalities

Google Maps
This website uses an online map service from the following provider: Google Maps (API) from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google").
Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (land) maps to visually display geographical information. Using this service shows you our location and makes it easier for you to find us.
Information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Google servers and stored there as soon as you access the subpages in which the Google Maps map is integrated; this may also involve transmission to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether a user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not wish your data to be associated with your Google profile, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates them.
The collection, storage and evaluation are carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of Google's legitimate interest in the display of personalized advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of Google websites. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact Google to exercise this right. If you do not agree to the future transmission of your data to Google in connection with the use of Google Maps, you also have the option of completely deactivating the Google Maps web service by switching off the JavaScript application in your browser. Google Maps and thus also the map display on this website can then not be used.
Insofar as legally required, we have obtained your consent to the processing of your data as described above in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, please follow the option described above for making an objection.
For data transfers to the USA, the provider has joined the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission.

Tools and miscellaneous

Cookie consent tool
This website uses a so-called "cookie consent tool" to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The "cookie consent tool" is displayed to users when they access a page in the form of an interactive user interface, on which consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking a box. By using the tool, all cookies/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user gives their consent by ticking the appropriate box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the user's end device if consent has been granted.
The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is not processed in this context.
If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website.
Another legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. As the controller, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent.
If necessary, we have concluded an order processing contract with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our site visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
Further information on the operator and the setting options of the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.

Duration of storage of personal data

The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing and - if applicable - additionally by the respective statutory retention period (e.g. retention periods under commercial and tax law).
If personal data is processed on the basis of express consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, this data is stored until the data subject withdraws their consent. If there are statutory retention periods for data that is processed within the scope of legal or similar obligations on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, this data will be routinely deleted after the retention periods have expired, provided that it is no longer required for contract fulfillment or contract initiation and/or we no longer have a legitimate interest in further storage.
When processing personal data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data is stored until the data subject exercises their right to object in accordance with Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
When processing personal data for the purpose of direct marketing on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data is stored until the data subject exercises their right to object in accordance with Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.
Unless otherwise stated in the other information in this declaration on specific processing situations, stored personal data is deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.

Our social media presence

We maintain a publicly accessible social media profile (hereinafter "profile") on Instagram.

This privacy policy applies to the following social media presence
- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/moeck_recorders/
The profile we use can be found below.

Data processing by social network operators
When you visit our profile, various data processing operations are triggered. Below we inform you which personal data we collect, process and store in this context. Personal data is data that can be assigned to you as a specific person (e.g. name, age, address, photos, email addresses, possibly also IP addresses). We also inform you about your rights with regard to the processing of your personal data. You are not obliged to provide us with your personal data. However, this may be necessary for individual functionalities of our profile. These functionalities will not be available to you, or only to a limited extent, if you do not provide us with your personal data.

In detail:
When you visit our profile, your personal data is collected, used and stored not only by us, but also by the operator of the social network. This happens regardless of whether you are logged in to your social network or not, or even if you do not have a profile on the social network. In this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.
With the help of the data collected in this way, the operator of the social network can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you inside and outside the social network. We would like to point out that social networks also process data based on your usage behavior within the respective platform or your other usage behavior on the Internet. If you have a social network profile, interest-based advertising may be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.
Please note that the individual data processing operations by the operator of the social network and their scope are not necessarily comprehensible to us. These differ depending on the operator of the social network. For details on the collection and storage of your personal data and the type, scope and purpose of its use by the social network operator, please refer to the operator's terms of use and privacy policy.

Controller and assertion of rights
When you visit our profile, we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social network for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights (information, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both against us and against the operator of the social network.
Please note that despite the joint responsibility with the operator of the social network, we do not have full influence on the operator's data processing operations. Our options are largely determined by the operator's company policy.

Data processing when contacting
If you use our profile to contact us (e.g. by creating your own posts, responding to one of our posts or sending us private messages), the data you provide us with will be stored and used exclusively for the purpose of responding to your request or for contacting you and the associated technical administration. The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Your data will be deleted after final processing of your request, provided that there are no legal storage obligations to the contrary. We assume that processing has been completed when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.

Legal basis
Data processing when visiting our profile is intended to improve the user experience in line with the target group and to ensure the most comprehensive possible presence on the Internet. The legal basis for data processing is therefore a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The analysis process initiated by a social network may be based on different legal bases, which must be specified by the operator of the social network (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).

Your rights
As a person affected by data processing, you have the rights listed in section 10 of this privacy policy.

Storage period
We delete the data collected and stored by you via the social network as soon as its storage is no longer necessary or you request us to delete it. The same applies if the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. if you object to direct advertising, Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR). If you have consented to the processing of your personal data (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR), your data affected by this will be stored until you withdraw your consent. Stored cookies remain on your end device until you delete them. In the case of statutory retention obligations, we restrict the processing of the stored data accordingly until the expiry of the respective retention period. If our data processing is based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR), your personal data will be stored despite your objection (Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR) as long as we can prove a legitimate interest that outweighs your rights and freedoms or the data processing serves the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims. We have no influence on the storage period of your data that is stored by the operator of the social network for its own purposes. For details, please contact the operator of the social network directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).
