1./   WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DATA PROCESSING (THE CONTROLLER) AND WHOM CAN I CONTACT? The controller is:

The controller is:

Name: MSM Media GmbH

Adresse: Merkurring 63-65, 22143 Hamburg,

E-Mail: info@msm-media.com

2./  FOR WHAT PURPOSE DO WE PROCESS YOUR DATA AND WHAT IS THE LEGAL BASIS FOR THAT? / CAN I REFUSE CONSENT TO MY DATA BEING COLLECTED?

Whenever it is called by you or an automated system, our website records a number of items of general data and information. This general data and information is stored in our server’s log files. The following can be recorded: The types of browser used and their versions, the operating system used by the system accessing our website, the website from which a system accesses our website, the subpages accessed by a system on our website, the date and time our website was accessed, an Internet Pro-tocol address (IP address), the Internet service provider of the system accessing our website, and other similar data and information that helps repel threats in the event that our IT systems are attacked. We do not use this general data and information to identify the data subject. This information is required instead to deliver our website’s content correctly, to optimize our website’s content and advertising for it, to ensure that our IT systems and our website’s technology keep running properly, and to pro-vide the information required to prosecute any cyberattacks that occur to the law-enforcement authorities. This data and information, which is collected anonymously, is therefore analyzed by us statistically, as well as with the objective of increasing data protection and data security at our company and so ultimately ensuring an ideal level of protection for the personal data we process (Article 6 (1) point (f) GDPR). The anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

2.1.  

We use the personal data (e.g. name, address, e-mail address, telephone and fax number, nationality, gender, company name, identification data, tax ID, information on legal representation) provided to us voluntarily to carry out contracts or the steps prior to entering into a contract. This is on the basis of the related consent given in Article 6 (1) point (a) GDPR.

You can also use our treatment form to send us data concerning your health that is of importance to your treatment (description of your symptoms, medical history) be-fore you visit our surgery. “Data concerning health” as defined by Article 9 GDPR means personal data related to the physical or mental health of a natural person, in-cluding the provision of health care services, which reveal information about his or her health status. If you wish to enroll for the seminars we offer, we need your name and a means of contacting you (telephone, e-mail); this data will be deleted after the seminar. We then process this data in accordance with statutory requirements (such as under the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), the German Telemedia Act (TMG) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Which personal data transmitted to the controller depends on our questions or your autonomous decision as to what information you wish to provide us with. We process the data required to perform a contract or steps prior to entering into a contract (such as replying to questions you have about a product or service) (Article 6 (1) point (b) GDPR). If you do not provide the personal data, we cannot fulfill our contractual obligations (such as invoicing, performance of our services, asserting claims, or correspondence with you). Neither can we answer your request. The particulars indicated by “*” in our contact form must always be provided so that we can address you in person (name) and respond to your questions (e-mail).

Which personal data is transmitted to the controller in the process will determine, based on our questions or your autonomous decision, which information you would like to provide us with.

We process the data which is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract or for the im-plementation of pre-contractual measures (e.g. to answer your questions about a product or a service) (Art. 6 (1 b) GDPR).

You have the possibility to register on our website and thus create a user profile. Af-ter registering on our website, we collect and process the following data in addition to the data automatically transmitted to us by your Internet browser. Depending on the purpose of processing, this data is marked as either mandatory or voluntary:

  • Date and time of registration
  • Your first names and surname
  • Your title
  • Your postal address
  • Your E-mail address
  • Your VAT ID number
  • Your telephone number
  • If provided voluntarily, your department
  • If provided voluntarily, your website

In this context, you will also be asked to assign a password to ensure the security of your account and legitimacy when ordering.

Without the provision of personal data, we cannot fulfil our contractual obligations (e.g. invoicing, provision of our services, assertion of claims, correspondence with you).

2.2.  

On the basis of a weighing of interests (Article 6 (1) point (f) GDPR)

Where necessary, we process your data above and beyond actual performance of the contract to safeguard legitimate interests of ours or third parties (e.g.):

  • Consultation of and data exchange with credit agencies (e.g. SCHUFA, credit insurers) to determine creditworthiness or default risks and the need for an at-tachment protection account or basic account;
  • examination and optimization of processes for analyzing needs and direct ad-dressing;
  • advertising or market and opinion research, insofar as you have not objected to the use of your data;
  • assertion of claims and defence in the event of legal disputes;
  • Address checks, identification of typing errors;
  • ensuring IT security and IT operation at our company;
  • Prevention and investigation of criminal offences;
  • to operate our website;
  • measures for building and plant security (e.g. access controls);
  • measures for controlling business and further developing services and products.

Processing of the data is necessary to safeguard our legitimate interests (in accord-ance with Article 6 (1) point (f) GDPR) and is justified on account of our overriding interests. We use your data to market our services only if you have first consented to that (Article 6 (1) point (a) GDPR) and have not withdrawn your consent. We cannot send you any direct marketing without using this data. We use your data for direct marketing of our services only if you have first consented to that (Article 6 (1) point (a) GDPR) and have not withdrawn your consent. We also select the communications channels used for marketing (such as post, e-mail) so as to ensure that they cause you the least possible inconvenience.

2.3.  

Online Shop

On our website we operate an online store. If you wish to order goods from our online store, you can do so via your customer account (see section 2.1

We create an internal account receivable in our processing system for each order or assign your order to an existing account receivable. In this account we store your basic data necessary for the contract processing:

  • Contact data (surname, first name, title)
  • Postal adress
  • E-mail adress
  • VAT ID number
  • Your telephone number
  • If provided voluntarily, your department
  • If provided voluntarily, your website

We do not store any payment information (e.g. credit card number, bank details, ac-count number) during the payment process. If you register or have already registered, the information stored in your customer ac-count will be linked.

We process the aforementioned data in accordance with Art. 6 (1 a) and (1b) GDPR. Without the data we cannot conclude and/or process a contract with you.

3./   WHO USES THE DATA?

3.1.  

The personal data is used solely by the persons and departments involved in han-dling the contract; these are employees of our company. Seven (7) persons have ac-cess to “Data concerning health” as defined by Article 9 GDPR.

3.2.  

The processors we engage (Article 28 GDPR, basis for that: Article 6 (1) points (a) and (b) GDPR) may receive data for such purposes (hosting companies, telephone service providers). These processors are companies in industries like IT services, logistics, printing services, telecommunications, debt collection, advice and consulting, and sales and marketing. We store the data we receive on our firm’s own servers, but part-ly also on servers of specialized service providers within Germany. Depending on the payment method selected by you (EC card, cash, by invoice), we process certain de-tails (in particular the payment amount) to the relevant payment service provider. The respective service provider processes the transmitted data and collects your data on its own responsibility.

4./   FOR HOW LONG IS YOUR DATA STORED?

4.1.  

Where necessary, we process and store your personal data only for the period of time it is needed or which is authorized by European Directives or Regulations or other laws or provisions of another legislator to which the controller is subject. As part of that, we are subject to various retention and documentation obligations, among other things pursuant to the General Commercial Code (HGB), the German Fiscal Code (AO), the German Banking Act (KWG), and the German Money Laundering Act (GwG). Section 147 of the German Fiscal Code (AO), for example, stipulates a retention peri-od of ten years.

4.2.  

If you have consented to processing of your personal data (Article 6 (1) point (a) GDPR), we erase your data as soon as possible after you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal grounds for processing the data.

4.3.  

If the purpose for which the data is stored no longer applies or the storage period prescribed by European Directives or Regulations or another competent legislator expires, the personal data is routinely blocked or erased in accordance with the statutory provisions, if it is no longer required or necessary.

5./   IS AUTOMATED PROCESSING USED?

We do not take any decisions within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR, which is based solely on automated processing, including profiling, and/or which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

 

6./   WHAT DATA PROTECTION RIGHTS DO YOU HAVE?

You have the right to access personal data and obtain information on it (Article 15 GDPR), the right to rectification of data (Article 16 GDPR), the right to erasure of data (Article 17 GDPR), the right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR), and the right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR) and the right to object to processing of your data (Article 21 GDPR). If you have granted your consent to processing of your data, you can withdraw it at any time (Article 7 GDPR). You also have a right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Article 77 GDPR); see Sec-tion 7./ as well.

Darüber hinaus haben Sie ein Beschwerderecht bei einer Datenschutzaufsichtsbehörde (Art. 77 DSGVO), vergleich hierzu Ziffer 7./.

 

Please send your withdrawal of consent or your request to:

E-Mail: info@msm-media.com

 

7./   RIGHT TO LODGE A COMPLAINT

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the country in which you are currently residing, where your place of work is located or at the place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of per-sonal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.

The competent supervisory authority for Hamburg is:

Der Hamburgische Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit

Ludwig-Erhard-Straße 22, 20495 Hamburg

Tel.: (040) 4 28 54 – 40 40

8./   DATA PROTECTION AS PART OF APPLICATIONS AND IN THE APPLICATION PROCESS

We collect and process personal data from job applicants so as to handle the applica-tion process (Article 6 (1) points (a) and (b) GDPR). The data may also be processed electronically. That is the case in particular when applicants send their application documents to the controller electronically, such as by e-mail or using a form on the website. We cannot handle an application if we do not collect the data. If you con-clude an employment contract with us, the data provided is stored for use as part of the employment relationship in compliance with statutory provisions. If an employ-ment contract is not concluded with an applicant, the application documents are au-tomatically erased two (2) months after a decision to reject the applicant is communi-cated, unless the controller has other legitimate interests for not erasing it. Another legitimate interest here is, for example, the requirement to furnish proof in the event of legal action under the German General Act on Equal Treatment (AGG). We cannot process the application without collecting the data.

9./   Use of cookies

We use cookies in order to make your visit to our website appealing and enable you to use certain features. They are small text files that are stored on your computer. For more details, please view our Cookie Policy.

11./ Google maps

We use Google Maps, an interactive service from Google, on our website. When you visit our website, Google is informed that you have visited the corresponding sub-page of our website. This is done irrespectively of whether Google offers a user ac-count and you are logged into this account or you do not have a user account. If you are logged into Google, your data will be directly associated with your account. If you do not want Google to associate your actions with your profile, you must log out of your account before activating the button. Google stores your data as user profiles and uses it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or designing its website to suit needs. Such an evaluation is conducted in particular (even for users who are not logged in) in order to present advertising tailored to the user and to in-form other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to creation of these user profiles, but must contact Google in order to exercise this right. If you do not wish the data collected as part of your part of use of Google Maps to be sent to Google in future, you can completely deactivate Google Maps by disabling the JavaScript application in your browser. That means you will no longer be able to use Google Maps on our website. The data is processed to safe-guard our legitimate interests in optimizing our website and operating it cost-effectively (Article 6 (1) point (f) GDPR). You can find more information and Google’s Privacy Policy at: www.google.de/policies/privacy/. . .

13./ Google Web Fonts

We have integrated the internet service "Google Fonts" on our website to display fonts. This service is provided by Google (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA - hereinafter "Google"). For the integration, it is technically necessary to process your IP address so that the content can be sent to your brows-er. Therefore your IP address will be transmitted to Google. The data is processed to protect our legitimate interest in the optimization and economic operation of our website (Art. 6 (1 f) GDPR). You can find further information and the Google data protection declaration at: www.google.de/policies/privacy/. Google is certified under the Privacy-Shield-Agreement and thus offers an adequate level of data protection according to Art. 45 GDPR. You can find further information on this at https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active.

Google ist unter dem Privacy-Shield-Abkommen zertifiziert und bietet dadurch ein angemessenes Datenschutzniveau gemäß Art. 45 DSGVO. Weitere Infos hierzu erhalten Sie unter https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active.

14./ Social Networks

We link within our website to the following social networks:

  • LinkedIn
  • XING

After clicking on the corresponding logo (links) you will be redirected to the website of the respective provider. After the redirection, user information is transferred to the respective provider. The data protection regulations of the providers of these web-sites can be viewed there directly. We have no influence on this.

15./ Newsletter

You have the possibility to subscribe to our newsletter. With this newsletter we in-form you continuously about our offers. To receive our newsletter, you need a valid e-mail address. We need your name for personal contact and your e-mail address. We will check the registered e-mail address to make sure that you are actually the owner of the e-mail address or that the owner is authorized to receive the newsletter. For this purpose, after entering the e-mail address and confirming that you have read our privacy policy, you will receive a separate e-mail with the request to use the link con-tained therein and to confirm your registration (double-opt-in). When you register for our newsletter, we will save your IP address and the date and time of your registra-tion. This serves as a safeguard for us in the event that a third party misuses your e-mail address and subscribes to our newsletter without your knowledge. We do not collect any other data. The data collected in this way will be used exclusively for re-ceiving our newsletter. It will not be passed on to third parties. A comparison of the data collected in this way is also not carried out. The collection of data is based on your consent (Art. 6 (1 a) GDPR, Section 7 (2) No. 3, UWG). You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time and revoke your consent to this. Details can be found in the confirmation e-mail and in each individual newsletter. We use the newsletter service MailPoet 3 to send our newsletter.

16./ ENCRYPTION

We use SSL and TLS encryption to protect the transmission of confidential data. You can tell that a connection is encrypted by the fact that “https://” is displayed in your browser’s address bar. Usually this is a 256 bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we use 128-bit v3 technology instead. You can tell whether an individual page of our website is being transmitted in encrypted form by the closed display of the key or lock symbol in the upper status bar of your browser and by the fact that "https://" appears in the address line of your browser.

We also use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, de-struction or unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continu-ously improved in line with technological developments. 

17./ Google TagManager       

Our website uses Google TagManager, a service from Google. This tool can be used to implement and manage tags (keywords that are embedded in html elements). That makes it possible to track which button, link or photo you actively clicked on. Cook-ies are not used, nor is personal data recorded. Google TagManager makes it easier to use our website; that is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 (1) point (f) GDPR. You can find more information and Google’s Privacy Policy at: www.google.de/policies/privacy/. Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Framework and so offers an adequate level of data protection in accordance with Ar-ticle 45 GDPR. You can find more information on this subject at: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active. The data is processed to safeguard our legitimate interests in optimizing our website and operating it cost-effectively (Article 6 (1) point (f) GDPR). . .

18./ Google reCAPTCHA

On our website we use the reCAPTCHA function, a service of google. This function makes it possible to distinguish whether an entry is made by a natural person or abu-sively by machine and automated processing. The service also includes the sending of the IP address and possibly other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. The processing of the data is carried out to protect our legitimate interest in the optimization and economic operation of our website (Art. 6 (1 f) GDPR). Further information as well as the privacy policy of Google can be found at: www.google.de/policies/privacy/. Google is certified under the Privacy-Shield-Agreement and thus offers an adequate level of data protection according to Art. 45 GDPR. You can find further information on this at https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active. . .
