The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time.

E-mail marketing
Notes on the newsletter and consent
The following information explains the content 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 receive it and to the procedures described.
Content of the newsletter
We only send newsletters, emails and other electronic notifications with advertising information (hereinafter "newsletter") with the consent of the recipient or with legal permission. If the contents of the newsletter are specifically described when registering for the newsletter, they are decisive for the user's consent. In addition, our newsletters contain information about the digital economy and all its branches (this may include, in particular, references to articles, advertisements, white papers or online presences).
Double opt-in and logging
Registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registering, you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no-one can register with other people's e-mail addresses.
Subscriptions to the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process in accordance with legal requirements. This includes storing the time of registration and confirmation as well as the IP address. Changes to your data stored in our self-hosted newsletter tool are also logged.
Registration data
To subscribe to the newsletter, simply enter your e-mail address.
Optionally, we ask you to enter your first and last name. This information is only used to personalize the newsletter. We also ask you to optionally enter your date of birth, gender and industry. We only use this information to adapt the content of the newsletter to the interests of our readers.
Statistical collection and analysis
The newsletters contain a so-called "web-beacon", i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved by our self-hosted newsletter tool when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval, is initially collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times.
The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to individual newsletter recipients. However, it is not our intention to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users.
Online access and data management
There are cases in which we direct newsletter recipients to the websites of our self-hosted newsletter tool. For example, our newsletters contain a link that newsletter recipients can use to access the newsletter online (e.g. in the event of display problems in the email program). Newsletter recipients can also correct their data, such as their email address, at a later date.
Cancellation/revocation
You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. At the same time, your consent to receive the newsletter via our self-hosted newsletter tool and the statistical analyses will expire. Unfortunately, it is not possible to cancel the sending of the newsletter via our self-hosted newsletter tool or the statistical analysis separately.
You will find a link to unsubscribe from the newsletter at the end of each newsletter.
Legal basis of the General Data Protection Regulation
In accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applicable from May 25, 2018, we inform you that the consent to the sending of e-mail addresses is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, 7 GDPR and § 96 para. 3 TKG. The use of our self-hosted newsletter tool, the implementation of statistical surveys and analyses as well as the logging of the registration process are based on our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We are interested in using a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves both our business interests and the expectations of users. We would also like to point out that you can object to the future processing of your personal data at any time in accordance with the legal requirements pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR. In particular, you may object to processing for direct marketing purposes.
