Newsletter

This website uses the services of MailChimp to send out newsletters. This service is provided by Rocket Science Group LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Suite 5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.

MailChimp is a service that organizes and analyzes the distribution of newsletters. If you provide data (e.g. your email address) to subscribe to our newsletter, it will be stored on MailChimp’s servers in the United States.

MailChimp is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield. The Privacy Shield is an agreement between the European Union (EU) and the United States to ensure that European privacy standards are met in the United States.

We use MailChimp to analyze our newsletter campaigns. When you open an email sent by MailChimp, a file included in the email (called a web beacon) connects to MailChimp’s servers in the United States. This allows us to determine whether a newsletter message has been opened and which links you click on. In addition, technical information is collected (e.g. retrieval time, IP address, browser type and operating system). This information cannot be attributed to a specific recipient. It is used exclusively for the statistical analysis of our information campaigns. The results of these analyses can be used to better adapt future newsletters to your interests.

If you do not want your use of the newsletter to be analyzed by MailChimp, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. To this end, we provide a link in every newsletter we send. You can also unsubscribe from the newsletter directly on the website.

The data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. Data processed before we receive your request may still be processed legally.

The data provided when you subscribe to the newsletter will be used to distribute the newsletter until you cancel your subscription, when said data will be deleted from our servers and those of MailChimp. Data we have stored for other purposes (e.g., email addresses for the members area) is not affected.
