Hosting and server log files

The landing page is hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, owner René Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany ("ALL-INKL"). When you visit the landing page, ALL-INKL automatically processes the data that your browser transmits, in particular:

(2) date and time of access,
(3) the page accessed and the amount of data transferred,
(4) the website from which you reach the landing page (referrer),
(5) browser type and version, and
(6) operating system.

This data is technically necessary to display the landing page and to ensure its stability and security. It is stored in server log files and deleted after a short period, unless longer storage is necessary to investigate security incidents. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in providing a secure and functional website (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR).

We have concluded a data processing agreement with ALL-INKL in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. The servers are located in Germany.

Fonts

The fonts used on the landing page are hosted locally on our server. No connection to external font providers (e.g., Google Fonts) is established.

YouTube videos

The landing page contains a video from YouTube, a service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. The video is only loaded after you click on it. Before that, only a preview image stored on our own server is shown, and no connection to YouTube is established. When you click on the video, your browser connects to the servers of YouTube and Google, and data such as your IP address, browser information and the page visited is transmitted. YouTube may store cookies or similar information on your device. Data may be transferred to Google LLC in the USA; see the section "Third country transfers".

The legal basis is your consent, which you give by clicking on the video (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR, § 25 (1) TDDDG). You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by not starting any further videos and deleting stored cookies in your browser.

When you click a purchase button, you are forwarded to the checkout of our community on Circle (CircleCo, Inc., USA), where payment is processed by Stripe. The landing page itself does not process any order or payment data. The processing of your data in the community and at checkout is described in the privacy policy of our community, which you can find in the community and at checkout.

The landing page contains links to our profiles on social networks and to other websites. These are simple links; no data is transmitted to the respective providers before you click on them. After clicking, the privacy policy of the respective provider applies.

Cookies

The landing page itself does not set any cookies and does not access information stored on your device. If you choose to play the trailer, YouTube may set cookies; see the section "YouTube videos". You can delete cookies at any time in your browser settings.

Third country transfers

If you play the trailer, data may be transferred to Google LLC in the USA. For the USA, the EU Commission has adopted an adequacy decision for companies certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Where a provider is certified under the DPF, the transfer is based on this adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR). Where a provider is not certified, the transfer is based on the EU standard contractual clauses (Art. 46 (2) lit. c GDPR, Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914). You can check whether a provider is certified at https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/list.

Duration for which personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiry of this period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer required for the fulfillment of a contract or the initiation of a contract, and provided that there are no further legal or regulatory requirements preventing deletion.

Existence of automated decision-making/profiling

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling.

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by European directives and regulations to request that the controller erase personal data concerning them without delay, provided that one of the following reasons applies and insofar as the processing is not necessary:

  • The personal data has been collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which it is no longer necessary.
  • The data subject withdraws their consent on which the processing was based in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  • The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR.
  • The personal data has been processed unlawfully.
  • The erasure of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.

If one of the above reasons applies and a data subject wishes to have personal data stored by us deleted, they can contact us at any time using the contact details above. We will ensure that the deletion request is complied with immediately.

If we have made the personal data public and are obliged as the controller pursuant to Art. 17 (1) GDPR to delete the personal data, we shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and implementation costs, to inform other controllers who process the published personal data that the data subject has requested these other controllers to delete all links to this personal data or copies or replications of this personal data, unless the processing is necessary. We will take the necessary steps in each individual case.

e) Right to restriction of processing

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by European directives and regulations to request the controller to restrict processing if one of the following conditions is met:

  • The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
  • The processing is unlawful, the data subject refuses to have the personal data deleted and instead requests the restriction of the use of the personal data.
  • The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the data subject needs it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
  • The data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.

If one of the above conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by us, they may contact us at any time using the contact details above. We will arrange for the restriction of processing.

f) Right to data portability

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to receive the personal data concerning them, which they have provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. They also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was provided, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and the processing is carried out using automated means, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Furthermore, when exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 (1) GDPR, the data subject has the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and provided that this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others. To exercise the right to data portability, the data subject may contact us at any time using the contact details provided above.

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

In the event of an objection, we will no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.

If we process personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for such marketing purposes. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to us processing their data for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

In addition, the data subject has the right to object, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them which is carried out by us for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact us directly. Furthermore, in relation to the use of information society services, the data subject is free to exercise their right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.

h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by European directives and regulations not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning them or similarly significantly affects them, unless the decision is

(1) necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or
(2) is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and that law provides for appropriate measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
(3) with the explicit consent of the data subject.

If the decision is

(1) necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or
(2) is based on the data subject's explicit consent,

we take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

If the data subject wishes to assert rights in relation to automated decisions, they may contact us at any time using the contact details above.
