Provider is ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, Inh. René Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf (hereinafter All-Inkl). For details, please refer to All-Inkl’s privacy policy: https://all-inkl.com/datenschutzinformationen/.

The use of All-Inkl is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in a reliable presentation of our website. If consent has been requested, processing will only be carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) in the sense of TTDSG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

Data Processing Agreement

We have concluded a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with the aforementioned provider. This is a data protection contract required by law, which ensures that this provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

General Information and Mandatory Information

Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

We point out that data transmission on the internet (e.g., communication via email) may have security gaps. A complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible.

Notice about the Responsible Party

The responsible party for data processing on this website is:

Dina & Nico Koch GbR

Hüttenberg 2

37581 Bad Gandersheim

Phone: +49 1736603356

Email: hello@dinaundnico.de

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

Retention Period

Unless a specific retention period is stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, provided we have no other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the deletion will take place after these reasons no longer apply.

General Information on the Legal Basis of Data Processing on This Website

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 (2) lit. a GDPR, if special categories of data are processed according to Art. 9 (1) GDPR. In the case of explicit consent for the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also based on Art. 49 (1) lit. a GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access information on your end device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing is additionally based on § 25 (1) TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required to fulfill a contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if it is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR. Data processing may also be based on our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The relevant legal bases in each individual case are explained in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Notice about Data Transfer to the USA and Other Third Countries

We use tools from companies based in the USA or other countries outside the EU that are not considered secure from a data protection perspective. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these third countries. We point out that in these countries, a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed. For example, US companies are required to hand over personal data to security authorities without you, as the person concerned, being able to take legal action against it. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence services) may process, analyze, and permanently store your data located on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence over these processing activities.

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 (1) LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN PROVE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21 (1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.

SSL or TLS Encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Right to Information, Deletion, and Correction

You have the right, within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, to obtain information free of charge at any time about your stored personal data, its origin, and recipients, the purpose of data processing, and, if necessary, a right to correction or deletion of this data. For this purpose, as well as for other questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

• If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

• If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

• If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for exercising, defending, or asserting legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing instead of deletion.

• If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balancing of your and our interests must be carried out. As long as it is not yet determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – apart from its storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

Objection to Advertising Emails

The use of contact details published as part of the obligation to provide an imprint for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby objected to. The operators of the sites expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam emails.

Data Collection on This Website

Cookies

Our websites use “cookies.” Cookies are small text files that do not cause any damage to your device. They are either temporarily stored for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit. Permanent cookies remain on your device until you delete them yourself or an automatic deletion takes place through your web browser.

In some cases, cookies from third-party companies may also be stored on your device when you enter our website (third-party cookies). These enable us or you to use certain services provided by the third-party company (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies are used to analyze user behavior or display advertisements.

Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process, provide certain functions you desire (e.g., for the shopping cart function), or optimize the website (e.g., cookies to measure web audience) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, unless a different legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to store cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, processing will only be carried out on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG); consent can be revoked at any time.

You can set your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or generally, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

As far as cookies from third-party companies or for analysis purposes are used, we will inform you separately within the scope of this privacy policy and, if necessary, request your consent.

Server Log Files

The provider of the sites automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• Browser type and version

• Operating system used

• Referrer URL

• Host name of the accessing computer

• Time of the server request

• IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website – for this purpose, the server log files must be recorded.

Facebook Pixel

We use the “Conversion Pixel” or visitor action pixel from Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). By calling up this pixel from your browser, Facebook can subsequently recognize whether a Facebook ad was successful, such as whether it led to an online purchase. We receive only statistical data from Facebook without reference to a specific person. This allows us to track the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes. Especially if you are logged in to Facebook, we also refer to their privacy information at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/.

Please go to https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/ if you wish to revoke your consent to the conversion pixel.

Microsoft Clarity

We use Microsoft Clarity. “Microsoft Clarity” is a process by Microsoft that enables user analysis based on a pseudonymous user ID and therefore on pseudonymous data, such as the evaluation of data on mouse movements or performance data on certain web presentations.

We primarily process usage data (e.g., visited websites, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses), location data (information about the geographical location of a device or person), and movement data (mouse movements, scroll movements) in pseudonymized form. We have set the appropriate settings so that data collection by and through Microsoft is pseudonymized from the outset, especially in the form of IP masking (pseudonymization of the IP address).

All users of our website who have consented to this use through our cookie consent service are affected by this data processing. The data processing is thus carried out solely on the basis of your consent according to Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR.

The purpose of processing is tracking (e.g., interest/behavior-based profiling, use of cookies), remarketing, conversion measurement (measuring the effectiveness of marketing measures), interest-based and behavioral marketing, profiling (creating user profiles), reach measurement (e.g., access statistics, identification of returning users), cross-device tracking (cross-device processing of user data for marketing purposes).

You will be informed about your right to object according to this privacy policy. You can also set an opt-out with the respective provider.

Microsoft Clarity: Online marketing and web analysis; provided by Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA; website: https://clarity.microsoft.com; privacy policy: https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/privacystatement; opt-out: https://choice.microsoft.com/en-us/opt-out.

Please note that we have entered into a DPA with Microsoft, including the necessary standard contractual clauses, to enable this activity.

Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Tag Manager is a tool that allows us to integrate tracking or statistical tools and other technologies into our website. Google Tag Manager itself does not create user profiles, store cookies, or carry out independent analyses. It is only used for managing and playing out the tools integrated through it. However, Google Tag Manager does collect your IP address, which may also be transferred to the parent company of Google in the United States.

The use of Google Tag Manager is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the quick and uncomplicated integration and management of various tools on their website. If consent has been requested, processing will only be carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR; consent can be revoked at any time.

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyze the behavior of website visitors. In doing so, the website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, time spent on the page, used operating systems, and the origin of the user. Google may combine this data in a profile assigned to the respective user or their device.

Furthermore, we can record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks with Google Analytics. Google Analytics also uses various modeling approaches to supplement the collected datasets and employs machine learning technologies in data analysis.

Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of the user for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g., cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

The use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both their website and their advertising. If consent has been requested (e.g., consent to the storage of cookies), processing will only be carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR; consent can be revoked at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses. Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

Use of Google AdWords Conversion

1. We use the services of Google AdWords to draw attention to our services on external websites through advertising materials (so-called Google AdWords). We can determine the success of individual advertising measures in relation to the data of the advertising campaigns. We pursue the interest of showing you advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you, and achieving a fair calculation of advertising costs.

2. These advertisements are delivered by Google via “Ad Servers.” For this purpose, we use Ad Server cookies, through which certain parameters for measuring success, such as the display of ads or user clicks, can be measured. If you reach our website through a Google ad, Google AdWords stores a cookie in your PC. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and are not intended to identify you personally. As a rule, the analysis values stored with this cookie are the unique cookie ID, the number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), the last impression (relevant for post-view conversions), as well as opt-out information (marking that the user no longer wishes to be addressed).

3. These cookies enable Google to recognize your internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of an AdWords client’s website and the cookie stored on their computer has not expired, Google and the client can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each AdWords client is assigned a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of AdWords clients. We ourselves do not collect and process any personal data in the advertising measures mentioned. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google. Based on these evaluations, we can recognize which of the employed advertising measures are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of advertising materials, and in particular, we cannot identify the users based on this information.

4. Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google’s server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and inform you according to our knowledge: By integrating AdWords Conversion, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding part of our website or clicked on one of our ads. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, there is a possibility that the provider may obtain and store your IP address.

5. You can prevent participation in this tracking process in various ways: a) by adjusting your browser software accordingly, in particular, the suppression of third-party cookies means that you will not receive ads from third-party providers; b) by disabling cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com”, https://www.google.de/settings/ads, whereby this setting will be deleted when you delete your cookies; c) by disabling the interest-based ads of providers who are part of the “About Ads” self-regulatory campaign via the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices, whereby this setting will be deleted when you delete your cookies; d) by permanently disabling cookies in your browsers Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Google Chrome using the link http://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. We would like to point out that in this case, you may not be able to fully use all functions of this website.

6. The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. For more information on data protection at Google, please refer to http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy and https://services.google.com/sitestats/en.html. Alternatively, you can visit the website of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) at http://www.networkadvertising.org. Google has subjected itself to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Google Remarketing

In addition to Google AdWords Conversion, we use the Google Remarketing application. This is a process with which we would like to address you again. This application enables us to display our advertisements to you during your further internet use after visiting our website. This is done through cookies stored in your browser, which are used by Google to record and evaluate your usage behavior when visiting various websites. This way, Google can determine your previous visit to our website. According to Google, the data collected during remarketing is not merged with your personal data, which may be stored by Google. In particular, Google uses pseudonymization during remarketing. Cookies in the context of Google Remarketing are stored for 24 months. The legal basis for processing your data is Art. 6 (1) S. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Contact Form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR if your request is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR) if requested; consent can be revoked at any time.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Inquiry by Email, Phone, or Fax

If you contact us by email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not share this data without your consent.

The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

Third-Party Providers

Plugins and Tools: Vimeo

This website uses plugins from the Vimeo video portal. The provider is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.

When you visit one of our pages featuring a Vimeo video, a connection is established to the Vimeo servers. The Vimeo server is informed which of our pages you have visited. Vimeo also obtains your IP address. This applies even if you are not logged in to Vimeo or do not have an account with Vimeo. The information collected by Vimeo is transferred to the Vimeo server in the USA.

If you are logged in to your Vimeo account, you enable Vimeo to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account.

Vimeo uses cookies or comparable recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting) to recognize website visitors.

The use of Vimeo is in the interest of providing an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing will only be carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) in the sense of the TTDSG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses and, according to Vimeo, on “legitimate business interests.” Details can be found here: https://vimeo.com/privacy.

For more information on the handling of user data, please refer to Vimeo’s privacy policy at: https://vimeo.com/privacy.

Google Web Fonts

This site uses so-called web fonts provided by Google for the uniform representation of fonts. When a page is accessed, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.

For this purpose, the browser you use must establish a connection to the Google servers. Through this, Google becomes aware that your IP address has accessed this website. The use of Google Web Fonts is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the uniform presentation of the typeface on their website. If consent has been requested, processing will only be carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) in the sense of TTDSG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font from your computer will be used.

Further information about Google Web Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

Pic-Time

For the transfer of our images and the provision of online galleries, we use the service Pic-Time. You can find Pic-Time’s terms of service here: https://www.pic-time.com/#TermsOfService
