General Information on Data Handling

The scope of personal data processing

We collect and use your personal data only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website as well as functional content and services. Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e. information that can be traced back to a person. This includes your name, email address or telephone number. This data refers only to a natural person, not to a legal (company). The collection and use of your personal data takes place regularly only after your consent. An exception applies in those cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for valid reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law. The term "you/user/your" refers to all customers and visitors to our website. The terms used, such as "user", are to be understood as gender-neutral. If "we" or "us" is mentioned in the text, this refers to SAXOPRINT Limited.

Basic information on data processing and legal bases

We process personal data only in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations. This means that your data will only be processed if permission has been given or if statutory regulations are processed. I.e. in detail that:

  • the processing of data for the provision of our contractual services (e.g. processing of orders) and online services is required or prescribed by law;
  • your consent has been given;
  • is based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation and security of our website), in particular range measurement; creation of anonymous profiles for advertising and marketing purposes (by collecting access data and using the services of third-party providers).

With regard to the processing of personal data on the basis of the GDPR, we make reference to:

  • the legal basis of consent in Article 6, section 1, subsection a and Article 7 of the GDPR;
  • the legal basis for processing the fulfilment of our services and the implementation of contractual measures in Article 6, section 1, subsection b of the GDPR;
  • the legal basis for processing to fulfil our legal obligations in Article 6, section 1, subsection c of the GDPR;
  • the legal basis for processing to protect our legitimate interests in Article 6, section 1, subsection f of the GDPR.

In the event that the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6, section 1, subsection d serves as the legal basis.

Registration with third-party authentication services

Some of our campaigns require you to register and log in using third-party authentication services, as far as they are available (hereinafter referred to as "third-party authentication"). Authentication services can be e.g. Facebook, Twitter or Google (hereinafter referred to as "authentication provider").

The prerequisite for third-party authentication is that you are registered with the respective authentication provider and enter the required access data on the web form provided for this purpose. The actual registration takes place directly with the respective authentication provider.

During registration we will receive a user ID with the information that you are logged in under this user ID. Furthermore, we will receive a temporary ID ("User Handle") that we will not be able to use indefinitely. Whether we receive additional information depends solely on the third-party authentication you use, the data sharing settings you choose for authentication, and also what information you have shared in the privacy or other settings of your user account with the authentication provider. Depending on the authentication provider and your selections, the data we receive will vary, but it is usually your email address and user name. In the case of Facebook, this is known as" public information" that everyone can see. These include the name, profile and cover picture, gender, networks (e.g. school or workplace), user name (Facebook URL) and user ID (Facebook ID).

The password entered as part of third-party authentication is neither visible to us nor is it stored by us.

Please note that your data stored with us can be automatically compared with your user account with the authentication provider, but this is not always possible or actually happens. For example, if your email address changes, you will have to change it manually in your user account with us.

If you decide that you no longer want to use the user account link with the authentication provider for third-party authentication, you must cancel this connection within your user account with the authentication provider. If you wish to delete your data with us, you must have your account deleted with us.

You should note that when using third-party authentication, both the terms of use and data usage policies, as well as revocation and objection options of the authentication providers, apply.

These are in particular:

Twitter (https://twitter.com/en/tos, https://twitter.com/en/privacy),

Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms, https://www.facebook.com/policy.php).

Collection of access data

On the basis of our legitimate interests, we collect data about every access to the server on which this service is located (so-called "server log files"). The access data includes:

  • Name of the retrieved website/file
  • Date and time of retrieval
  • transferred data volume
  • Notification of successful retrieval
  • browser type and version, the operating system of the calling device
  • Referrer URL (the previously visited page)
  • IP address and the requesting provider

Log file information is stored for a maximum of seven days for security reasons (e.g. to investigate misuse or fraud) and then deleted. Data which requires further storage for evidentiary purposes are excluded from deletion until the respective incident has been finally clarified.

Data deletion and storage time

The personal data of the person concerned will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Furthermore, data may be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the person responsible is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

Use of analysis services

Use of Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc, (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies". These are text files that are stored on your computer and enable us to analyse your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. More information on how Google Analytics handles user data can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

Browser plugin and objection against data collection

You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en. However, the disabling of add-ons for browsers from Google Analytics does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analytics services that we may use.

Anonymised collection of IP addresses

We use the "IP Anonymization Activation" function on our website. This will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or other countries party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area prior to transmission to Google. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and saved there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website in order to compile reports on website activity. Our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Article 6, Section 1, subsection f of the GDPR. For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html or https://policies.google.com/?hl=en.

Use of Hotjar

We use Hotjar, a web analysis tool from Hotjar Ltd (Level 2, St Julians Business Centre, 3, Elia Zammit Street, St Julians STJ 1000, Malta). Hotjar records the interactions of randomly selected individual visitors to our website in anonymised form. This creates a log of mouse movements and clicks, for example, with the aim of identifying possible improvements to our website. In addition, information about the operating system, browser, incoming and outgoing links, geographical origin as well as resolution and type of the calling up terminal device are evaluated by means of Hotjar for statistical purposes. In addition, we offer the possibility to leave anonymous user feedback via "feedback pools" via Hotjar. The information collected is not personal, is stored by Hotjar Ltd. and is not passed on to any other third parties. Additional information on functions and data usage using Hotjar can be found at: https://www.hotjar.com/legal/policies/privacy. If you do not want a website analysis using Hotjar, you can deactivate it on all websites using Hotjar by setting a "DoNotTrack header" in your browser (opt-out): https://www.hotjar.com/policies/do-not-track/.

Use of Visual Website Optimizer

We use Visual Website Optimizer, a web analysis service from Wingify (14th Floor, KLJ Tower North, Netaji Subhash Place, Pitam Pura, Delhi 110034, India). Visual Website Optimizer is used to test the usability of certain pages. Measured data on user behaviour are collected anonymously. We have no way of assigning these anonymous measured values to you personally, for example by assigning your IP address or by other means. Cookies are used to obtain meaningful test results, i.e. the program uses the function provided by your browser to temporarily store information and access it later. Unless the cookies expire at the end of the session, they are available for a maximum of 100 days (further details can be found here: https://vwo.com/knowledge/cookies-used-by-vwo/). You can delete the cookies in your browser at any time. Tracking (i.e. the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to the use of the website) can be deactivated at any time. Please follow the instructions at: https://vwo.com/opt-out/. Further information on data protection can be found at: https://vwo.com/terms-conditions/.

Google Tag Manager

On out Website, we use "Google Tag Manager", a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereafter referred to as "Google"). This service allows website tags to be managed through an interface. Google Tag Manager only implements tags. No cookies are used and no personal information is collected. Google Tag Manager also triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. However, it does not access this data itself. If disabled at the domain or cookie level, it will remain disabled for all tracking tags implemented by Google Tag Manager. You can find more information at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-GB&%3Bgl=en.

Newsletter Tracking (Emarsys Web Extend)

We use the user tracking script "Web Extend" from Emarsys Interactive Services GmbH, Stralauer Allee 6, 10245 Berlin. Web Extend uses cookies and JavaScript to enable individualised content. With the help of Web Extend, we can investigate user behaviour of visitors to our website in pseudonymised and anonymised form. We use the information generated to make our e-mail communication as interesting as possible for you. You can deactivate data processing by Web Extend at any time by changing the cookie settings.

LinkedIn Insight-Tag and LinkedIn Ads

We use the LinkedIn Insight tag on our website (LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland). This analysis and tracking tool allows us to create reports on the use of our website, optimise our ads with LinkedIn Conversion Tracking and create retargeting lists to target our website visitors to LinkedIn. This enables us to provide targeted, relevant information to our LinkedIn visitors.

The LinkedIn Insight tag uses cookies and collects anonymous information about visitors to our site, such as the URL, device and browser characteristics, and more. LinkedIn does not share any personally identifiable information with this site, and all reports about visitors and ads are anonymous summaries only. If you do not wish to participate in tracking with the LinkedIn Insight tag and do not wish to receive interest-based advertising, you may opt-out of receiving interest-based advertising by clicking on the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out. For more information about LinkedIn's privacy policy, please visit https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.

Google Web Fonts

This site uses web fonts provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland) ("Google") for the uniform display of fonts. When you access a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display text and fonts correctly. To do this, the browser you are using must connect to Google's servers. This may also involve the transmission of personal data to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA. In this way, Google obtains knowledge that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and attractive presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest in the sense of article 6, section 1, subsection f of the GDPR. If your browser does not support Web Fonts, a standard font from your computer will be used.

Further information on Google Web Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in the Google data protection declaration: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

reCAPTCHA

Within the scope of our services, we use reCAPTCHA from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland) ("Google"). This function is mainly used to differentiate whether an entry is made by a natural person or abusively by machine and automated processing. The service includes the sending of the IP address and, if applicable, other data required by Google for the service to Google and is carried out in accordance with article 6, section 1, subsection f of the GDPR based on our legitimate interest in establishing individual responsibility on the Internet and avoiding misuse and spam. While using Google reCAPTCHA, personal data may also be transferred to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.

Further information about Google reCAPTCHA and Google's privacy policy can be found at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

Site Search 360

We use Site Search 360, a search service of SEMKNOX GmbH, Webergasse 1, 01067 Dresden, Germany, in the context of the product search on our website. With this service, suitable search results can be displayed on our website by means of a search query. Within the scope of the search query, the search term as well as your IP address and any session ID assigned will be transmitted. SEMKNOX also uses cookies, which enable the search function to be carried out successfully. On our behalf SEMKNOX will use this information to answer your search query. For further information please visit https://www.sitesearch360.com/privacy-policy/.

Usercentrics

We use the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform to fulfill the legal obligation according to article 7, section 1 of the GDPR. The operator is Usercentrics GmbH, Rosental 4, 80331 Munich, Germany. Usercentrics Consent Management Platform collects log file data, user agent (device, browser type, browser language, browser version, resolution) and consent data (consent yes/no, time stamp, data scope, data attributes, ControllerID, ProcessorID, ConsentID) via a Javascript. This JavaScript enables Usercentrics GmbH to inform the user about certain tags and web technologies on our website and to obtain, manage and document his or her consent. You can permanently prevent the execution of JavaScript at any time by making appropriate settings in your browser, which would also prevent Usercentrics from executing the JavaScript. Further information on data protection at Usercentrics can be found at: https://usercentrics.com/privacy-policy/.

Use of social plugins

Facebook

We use so-called social plugins ("plugins") of the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Inc. (1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA). The plugins are marked with a Facebook logo or the addition "Facebook Social Plug-in" or "Facebook Social Plugin". An overview of the Facebook plugins and their appearance can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins?locale=en_EN.

When you access a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser and integrated into the website.

By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that your browser has called up the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not currently logged on to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.

If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly associate your next visit to our website with your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the "like" button or making a comment, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on Facebook and displayed to your Facebook friends.

Facebook may use this information for the purposes of advertising, market research and demand-oriented design of Facebook pages. To this end, Facebook creates usage, interest and relationship profiles, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide other services associated with the use of Facebook.

If you do not want Facebook to link the data collected via our website with your Facebook account, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website and delete all stored data (cookies) from Facebook from your browser if necessary.

To find out more about the reasons and range of data collection, the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your respective rights and setting options for the protection of your privacy, please refer to the data protection information of Facebook: www.facebook.com/about/privacy

Google+

We use the "+1″ button of the social network Google Plus, which is operated by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) ("Google"). This button can be recognized by the lettering "+1″ on a white or coloured background. If you open any content on our website that contains such a button, the browser establishes a direct connection to the Google servers. Google transmits the content of the "+1" button directly to the user's browser, which in turn integrates the content into the website. We therefore have no influence on the data that Google collects with the button and, according to Google, no personal data is collected as long as the button is not clicked. If you are logged in to Google, your IP address, among other things, will be collected and processed. To what extent and for what purpose Google collects data, in what form the data is processed and used, and what rights and settings are available to protect privacy in this respect, you can find Google's data protection information on the "+1" button: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

If you are a Google Plus member or have logged in to Google and do not want Google to collect data about you when you visit our website and link it to your membership data stored by Google, you must log out of Google Plus or Google before visiting our website and delete all stored data (cookies) from Google from your browser if necessary.

Twitter („Tweet Button“)

We use functions of the Twitter service. These features are provided by Twitter Inc. (1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA). By using Twitter and the "Re-Tweet" function, Twitter links the user's Twitter account with the websites you visit. This is communicated primarily to the user's followers on Twitter. Data is also transmitted to Twitter servers. We would like to point out that we are not aware of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Twitter. Further information is available under the following link: https://twitter.com/privacy?lang=en.

Privacy settings on Twitter can be changed in the account settings at: https://twitter.com/settings/account.

If you are a Twitter member and have logged in to Twitter and do not want Twitter to collect data about you when you visit our website and link to your membership data stored on Twitter, you must log out of Twitter before visiting our website and delete all stored data (cookies) from Twitter from your browser if necessary.

To find out more about the reasons and range of data collection, the further processing and use of the data by Pinterest as well as your relevant rights and setting options for the protection of your privacy, please refer to the data protection information at: https://pinterest.com/about/privacy/.

For information about the purpose and scope of data collection, processing and use, and your rights and privacy choices, please refer to Instagram's Privacy Policy, which is available at: https://help.instagram.com/155833707900388.

To prevent Instagram from linking your next visit to our site with your Instagram account, you must log out of your Instagram account and delete all Instagram data (cookies) from your browser before visiting our site.

LinkedIn

Our website uses the functions of the LinkedIn network (LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). Every time you visit one of our pages that contains any LinkedIn functions, a connection to LinkedIn's servers is established. LinkedIn is informed that you are visiting our website. In addition, your IP address will be transmitted to LinkedIn. If you click the "Recommend button" of LinkedIn and are logged in to LinkedIn, it is possible for LinkedIn to attribute the visit to our website to you and your LinkedIn user account. We point out that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data and their use by LinkedIn. Further information can be found in LinkedIn's privacy policy at: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.

To prevent LinkedIn from associating your next visit to our site with your LinkedIn account, you must log out of your LinkedIn account before visiting our site and delete all stored LinkedIn data (cookies) from your browser if necessary.

XING

We use the functions of the Xing network (XING AG, Dammtorstraße 29-32, 20354 Hamburg, Germany).

In particular, no IP addresses are stored, or the usage behaviour is evaluated. Further information on data protection and the Xing Share button can be found in Xing's data protection declaration at: https://www.xing.com/app/share?op=data_protection.

YouTube

We use the plugins from YouTube (YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA). If you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. The Youtube server is informed which of our pages you are visiting. If you are logged in to your YouTube account, YouTube is able to map your surfing behavior to your YouTube user profile. This can be prevented by logging out of your YouTube account and deleting all stored data (cookies) from YouTube from your browser if necessary. Further information can be found in YouTube's privacy policy at: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy

Comments & Contact

Comments and discussions in the blog

If you use the comment function in the SAXOPRINT blog area (www.saxoprint.co.uk/blog), your IP address is saved. This is for our security in the event that someone writes illegal content in comments and contributions (insults, forbidden political propaganda, etc.). We as the provider can be prosecuted for any comments or contributions and are therefore interested in the identity of the author.

To write a comment, you must provide a valid email address, a (nick)name and, if applicable, a valid website link. Your email address and personal data will not be published or passed on to third parties.

We reserve the right to delete comments with threats or insults, advertising or illegal content, obvious backlink comments (especially SPAM) with irrelevant context or invalid email addresses and if necessary to bar the user from further use. The utilisation of our comment function for commercial purposes is prohibited. By submitting a comment, you grant SAXOPRINT Limited the unrestricted right of use for publication on our blog. It is possible to subscribe to additional comments. In this case, you will receive a confirmation email (double opt-in procedure) to check whether you are the owner of the email address you entered. Current comment subscriptions can be removed at any time. Please read the confirmation email for more information.

Contact opportunities

On our website we offer you the possibility to contact us via e-mail and/or via contact form. In this case, the information provided by the user will be stored for the purpose of answering enquiries. The data will not be passed on to third parties. Cross-referencing the data collected in this way with data that may be collected by other elements of our site does not take place either.

Newsletter

Description and scope of data processing

With the following information we will inform you about the contents of our newsletter as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedure and your rights of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to receiving newsletters and the procedures described.

Content of the newsletter

We will only send newsletters, emails and other electronic notifications containing advertising information (hereinafter "newsletters") with the consent of the user or with legal permission. Insofar as a registration to the newsletter and its content has been outlined in concrete terms, this information is binding for the user's consent.

In addition, our newsletters contain information about new offers, current promotions and news concerning SAXOPRINT Limited.

Double-Opt-In and documentation

The registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure: This means that after registration you will receive an email asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that nobody can log in with another email address. Subscriptions to the newsletter are documented so that the registration process can be proven in accordance with legal requirements. This includes saving the date and time of registration and confirmation.

Email dispatch service provider ("dispatch service provider")

The newsletter is sent out on the basis of our legitimate interests as defined in article 6 section 1, sub-section f of the GDPR via Emarsys Interactive Services GmbH, Stralauer Platz 34, 10243 Berlin, Germany (hereinafter referred to as "dispatch service provider"). The data protection regulations of the dispatch service provider can be viewed here: https://www.emarsys.com/en/privacy-policy/.

Furthermore, the dispatch service provider can use this data in an anonymous form, i.e. without assignment to a user, to optimise or improve its own services, e.g. for technical optimisation of the dispatch and presentation of the newsletter or for statistical purposes in order to determine which countries the recipients are from. However, the service does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write them down or pass them on to third parties.

Registration details

To subscribe to the newsletter, all you need to do is enter your e-mail address, your name and customer type, in order to be contacted personally and to tailor the content of the newsletter.

Statistical surveys and analyses

The newsletters contain a so-called "web-beacon" or "web bug", i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from our server when the newsletter is opened. In the course of this retrieval, technical information such as information about the browser and your system as well as your IP address and the time of retrieval are initially collected. This information is used to improve the technical performance of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading habits based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined using the IP address) or access times. The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. This information can be assigned to individual newsletter recipients for technical reasons, but we are not interested in monitoring individual users. The evaluations serve us rather to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our contents to them or to send different contents according to the interests of our users.

The statistical surveys and analyses as well as the logging of the application procedure are carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests as defined in article 6, section 1, sub-section f of the GDPR. We are interested in providing a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves our business interests and meets the expectations of the user.

Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis of the processing of data after registration to the Newsletter is, with the user's consent, article 6, section 1, sub-section a of the GDPR.

The purposes of data processing

The purpose of collecting the user's e-mail address is for sending the newsletter.

The collection of other personal data as part of the registration process serves to prevent misuse of the services or the email address in question.

Duration of storage

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. The user's email address will therefore be stored for as long as the subscription to the newsletter is still active.

Other personal data collected during the registration process will generally be deleted after a period of seven days.

Possibility of objection and elimination

The subscription to the newsletter can be cancelled by the user concerned at any time. For this purpose, there is a corresponding link in every newsletter. If you have subscribed to the newsletter and cancelled this subscription, your personal data will be deleted accordingly.

Competitions, campaigns and events

If you decide to participate in any of our promotions, we will ask you to provide us with your name, date of birth, email address, telephone number and/or postal address to ensure that each user participates only once and to inform you of the progress of the promotion. In connection with the organisation of competitions or other events, the necessary personal data of the participants will also be transmitted to the associated co-organisers, cooperation partners and sponsors as well as other media. For details on the partners, please consult the relevant promotional details. The use of the data is limited exclusively to the purpose of the respective action. The personal data collected will not be pooled with other data sources. After completion of the respective action, the collected data will be deleted. Any other stipulations require your explicit consent.

Online advertising and targeting

Google Dynamic Remarketing

We use the dynamic remarketing function of "Google AdWords", a service of Google (Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). The technology enables us to place automatically generated, target group-oriented advertising following your next visit to our website. The ads are based on the products and services you clicked on the last time you visited our website.

Google uses cookies to create interest-based ads. Google usually saves information such as your web request, IP address, browser type, browser language, date and time of your request.

To display these advertisements, we have embedded a Facebook retargeting pixel on our website that enables Facebook to record our users as visitors to our website using a pseudonym and to use this data for our ad placements on Facebook. Personal data is not collected or stored. Users cannot be identified on Facebook. Facebook does not link the data collected via the retargeting pixel to the user data stored about a person on Facebook.

(3) for reasons of public interest in the field of public health pursuant to article 9, section 2, sub-sections h and i and article 9, section 3 of the GDPR;

(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to article 89, section 1 of the GDPR, insofar as the right mentioned in article 89, section 1 of the GDPR is likely to make it impossible or seriously impair the attainment of the objectives of such processing, or

(5) to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

Right to information

If you have exercised your right to have the data controller correct, delete or limit the processing, he/she is obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this correction or deletion of the data or restriction on processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.

The person responsible has the right to be informed about these recipients.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the person responsible in a structured, common and computer-readable format. In addition, you have the right to pass this data on to another person in charge without obstruction by the person in charge to whom the personal data was provided, provided that

(1) processing is based on consent pursuant to article 6, section 1, sub-section a of the GDPR or article 9, section 2, sub-section a of the GDPR or on a contract under article 6, sub-section 1, sub-section b of the GDPR, and

(2) processing is carried out by means of automated methods.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to request that the personal data concerning you be transferred directly from one data controller to another data controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.

The right to transferability shall not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority conferred on the controller.

Right to object

You have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is based on article 6, section 1, sub-section e or f of the GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these conditions.

The data controller no longer processes the personal data concerning you, unless he or she can provide conclusive evidence worthy of the protection for the processing, which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

If the personal data concerning you is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of the personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is associated with such direct marketing.

If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.

You have the possibility to exercise your right of objection in connection with the use of ISS services by means of automated procedures using technical specifications, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.

Right to revoke the data protection declaration of consent

You have the right to revoke your data protection declaration of consent at any time. The revocation of consent shall not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation.

Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing - including profiling - that has legal effect against you or significantly impairs you in a similar manner. This does not apply if the decision

(1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the person responsible,

(2) the legislation of the Union or of the Member States to which the person responsible is subject is admissible and that legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests; or

(3) with your express consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data in accordance with article 9, section 1 of the GDPR, unless article 9, section 2, sub-section a or g GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the person responsible shall take reasonable measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person by the person responsible, to state his own position and to challenge the decision.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right of appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where you are staying, working or suspected of infringing, if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you is contrary to the GDPR.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 GDPR.
