Privacy Richter Media Group GmbH

privacy.

We are very pleased with your interest in our company. Data protection is of particular importance to the management of Richter Media Group GmbH. The use of the Richter Media Group GmbH website is generally possible without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use special services provided by our company through our website, the processing of personal data may become necessary. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain the consent of the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the national data protection regulations applicable to Richter Media Group GmbH. With this privacy policy, our company seeks to inform the public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, this privacy policy aims to educate data subjects about their rights.

Richter Media Group GmbH, as the data controller, has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the highest possible protection of personal data processed through this website. However, internet-based data transmissions can inherently have security gaps, so an absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, it is free for any data subject to transmit personal data to us via alternative means, such as by phone.

1. Definitions The privacy policy of Richter Media Group GmbH is based on the terminology used by the European legislator when adopting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy policy is intended to be easy to read and understand for the general public, as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance. We use the following terms in this privacy policy, among others:**

  • a) Personal Data Personal data refers to all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter "data subject"). A natural person is considered identifiable who can be directly or indirectly identified, particularly by reference to an identifier such as a name, identification number, location data, online identifier, or one or more specific factors related to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that person.

  • b) Data Subject The data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.

  • c) Processing Processing means any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as the collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

  • d) Restriction of Processing Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its future processing.

  • e) Profiling Profiling means any automated processing of personal data that consists of using personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, particularly to analyze or predict aspects related to work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements of that person.

  • f) Pseudonymization Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and subject to technical and organizational measures that ensure that the personal data cannot be attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

  • g) Controller or Data Controller The controller or data controller is the natural or legal person, authority, agency, or other body that alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union law or the law of the Member States, the controller or the criteria for their appointment may be provided for by Union law or the law of the Member States.

  • h) Processor The processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

  • i) Recipient A recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or another body to whom personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether they are a third party. However, authorities that may receive personal data in the course of a specific investigation under Union law or the law of Member States are not considered recipients.

  • j) Third Party A third party is a natural or legal person, authority, agency, or other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor, and the persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or the processor, are authorized to process personal data.

  • k) Consent Consent is any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which the data subject, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to them.

3. Cookies
The websites of Richter Media Group GmbH use cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via an internet browser.
Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters that can be assigned to a specific internet browser in which the cookie is stored. This enables visited websites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognized and identified by the unique cookie ID.
By using cookies, Richter Media Group GmbH can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the setting of cookies.
Using a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized in the sense of the user. As mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, a user of a website using cookies does not have to re-enter their login data with every visit, as this is taken over by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online store. The online store remembers the items a customer has added to the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by making the appropriate setting in the internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If the data subject disables the setting of cookies in the browser used, it is possible that not all functions of our website will be fully usable.

4. Collection of General Data and Information
The website of Richter Media Group GmbH collects a series of general data and information with every access to the website by a data subject or an automated system. This general data and information are stored in the server’s log files. The following may be collected:
(1) the types and versions of browsers used,
(2) the operating system used by the accessing system,
(3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrer),
(4) the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website,
(5) the date and time of access to the website,
(6) an Internet Protocol (IP) address,
(7) the internet service provider of the accessing system, and
(8) other similar data and information that serve to avert dangers in case of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using this general data and information, Richter Media Group GmbH does not draw conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to
(1) correctly deliver the contents of our website,
(2) optimize the contents of our website and the advertising for it,
(3) ensure the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and
(4) provide law enforcement authorities with the necessary information in the event of a cyberattack for prosecution purposes.
These anonymized data and information are evaluated by Richter Media Group GmbH both statistically and for the purpose of improving data protection and data security in our company, ultimately ensuring an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymized data in the server log files are stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.

5. Routine Deletion and Blocking of Personal Data
The data controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the storage purpose or as required by the European legislator or another legislator in laws or regulations to which the data controller is subject.
Once the storage purpose no longer applies or a prescribed storage period under European or other applicable legislation has expired, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.

​

6. Rights of the Data Subject

d) Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)
Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to request the data controller to erase personal data concerning them without undue delay, if one of the following reasons applies and the processing is not necessary:

  • The personal data were collected or otherwise processed for purposes that are no longer necessary.

The Data Protection Officer or another employee of Richter Media Group GmbH will ensure that the deletion request is carried out without undue delay.

The Data Protection Officer or another employee will take the necessary action in each case.

e) Right to Restriction of Processing

If any of the above conditions apply and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of processing of personal data stored by Richter Media Group GmbH, they can contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the responsible party at any time. The Data Protection Officer or another employee will ensure that the processing is restricted.

f) Right to Data Portability
Every data subject 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 these data to another controller without hindrance by the controller to whom the personal data were provided, provided that the processing is based on consent according to Article 6 (1)(a) or Article 9 (2)(a) of the GDPR, or on a contract according to Article 6 (1)(b) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by 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, the data subject has the right, when exercising their right to data portability under Article 20 (1) of the GDPR, to have their personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible, and provided that the rights and freedoms of other persons are not affected.
To exercise the right to data portability, the data subject can contact the Data Protection Officer of Richter Media Group GmbH or another employee at any time.

The data subject also has the right to object to the processing of personal data by Richter Media Group GmbH for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes under Article 89 (1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact the Data Protection Officer or another employee at Richter Media Group GmbH directly. The data subject is also free to exercise their right to object through automated means using technical specifications, in relation to the use of services of the information society, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.

h) Automated Decisions in Individual Cases, Including Profiling
Every data subject has the right granted by the European legislator 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 entering into or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller,
(2) authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, and these laws contain appropriate safeguards to protect the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or
(3) based on the explicit consent of the data subject.
If the decision is necessary for the performance of a contract or based on the explicit consent of the data subject, Richter Media Group GmbH will take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to request human intervention from the controller, to present their own point of view, and to contest the decision.

7. Privacy Policy for the Use and Application of Facebook

The controller of the processing has integrated components of Facebook Inc. on this website. Facebook is a social network.
A social network is an online community that typically allows users to communicate and interact with each other in the virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for exchanging opinions and experiences or enable the internet community to provide personal or business-related information. Facebook allows users of the social network, among other things, to create personal profiles, upload photos, and network via friend requests.

The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. If the affected person resides outside the USA or Canada, the responsible entity for data processing is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

When visiting any page on this website, which is operated by the controller and contains a Facebook component (Facebook plugin), the browser on the affected person’s IT system will automatically be prompted by the Facebook component to download a representation of the corresponding Facebook component. A complete overview of all Facebook plugins can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/. As part of this technical process, Facebook is made aware of which specific page of the website the affected person is visiting.

If the affected person is logged in to Facebook at the same time, Facebook will recognize with every visit to the website and during the entire duration of their stay which specific page of the website is being visited. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned to the respective Facebook account of the affected person. If the affected person interacts with one of the integrated Facebook buttons on our website, such as the “Like” button or submits a comment, Facebook associates this information with the personal Facebook user account of the affected person and stores this personal data.

Facebook receives information about the visit to our website whenever the affected person is logged in to Facebook at the time of the visit, regardless of whether the person clicks on the Facebook component. If the affected person does not want this information to be transmitted to Facebook, they can prevent the transmission by logging out of their Facebook account before visiting the website.

The data policy published by Facebook, available at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information on the collection, processing, and use of personal data by Facebook. It also explains the privacy settings Facebook provides to protect the privacy of the affected person. Additionally, there are different applications available that allow for suppressing data transmission to Facebook. The affected person can use such applications to prevent data from being transmitted to Facebook.

8. Privacy Policy for the Use and Application of Google Analytics (with Anonymization Function)

The controller of the processing has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics involves the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analytics service collects data, such as which website a person came from (referred to as a referrer), which subpages of the website were accessed, how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is primarily used for optimizing websites and conducting cost-benefit analyses of online advertising.

The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The controller uses the "_gat._anonymizeIp" extension for web analysis via Google Analytics. With this extension, the IP address of the affected person's internet connection is shortened and anonymized by Google when accessing our website from a member state of the European Union or from another contracting state of the European Economic Area Agreement.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the traffic to our website. Google uses the collected data and information, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports showing the activities on our website, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.

Google Analytics sets a cookie on the IT system of the affected person. The function of cookies was explained earlier. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. With each visit to one of the individual pages of the website, which is operated by the controller and includes the Google Analytics component, the browser on the IT system of the affected person automatically transmits data for the purpose of online analysis to Google. As part of this technical process, Google becomes aware of personal data such as the IP address of the affected person, which Google uses, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently to enable commission billing.

Through the use of the cookie, personal data is stored, such as the access time, the location from which an access originated, and the frequency of visits to our website by the affected person. With every visit to our website, this personal data, including the IP address of the affected person's internet connection, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may transfer this personal data collected through the technical procedure to third parties.

The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as described above, at any time by adjusting the settings in the browser used and thereby permanently object to the setting of cookies. This setting in the browser would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the affected person’s IT system. Additionally, any cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time through the browser or other software programs.

Furthermore, the affected person has the option to object to the collection of data generated by Google Analytics and related to the use of this website and the processing of this data by Google, and to prevent such processing. To do so, the affected person must download and install the browser add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information on the visits to websites should be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered an objection by Google. If the IT system of the affected person is later deleted, formatted, or reinstalled, the affected person must reinstall the browser add-on to disable Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or disabled by the affected person or by another person within their control, the possibility of reinstalling or reactivating the browser add-on exists.

Further information and the applicable privacy policies of Google can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy/ and http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/en.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail at https://www.google.com/intl/en_us/analytics/.

This information is collected by the Xing component and assigned by Xing to the respective Xing account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks one of the integrated Xing buttons, such as the "Share" button, Xing assigns this information to the personal Xing user account of the data subject and stores this personal data.
Xing receives information that the data subject has visited our website whenever the data subject is logged in to Xing at the time of the visit, regardless of whether the data subject clicks the Xing component or not. If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to Xing, they can prevent the transmission by logging out of their Xing account before accessing our website.
The privacy policy published by Xing, available at https://www.xing.com/privacy, provides information about the collection, processing, and use of personal data by Xing. Additionally, Xing has published privacy information for the XING Share button at https://www.xing.com/app/share?op=data_protection.

10. Privacy Policy Regarding the Use of YouTube
The data controller has integrated components of YouTube on this website. YouTube is an internet-based video portal that allows video publishers to upload video clips for free, while other users can view, rate, and comment on them. YouTube permits the publication of all types of videos, meaning that full movies and TV shows, music videos, trailers, and user-generated content are available via the portal.
The operating company of YouTube is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
By accessing any individual page of this website, operated by the data controller and containing a YouTube component (YouTube video), the internet browser on the data subject's IT system automatically downloads a representation of the corresponding YouTube component from YouTube. Further information on YouTube can be found at https://www.youtube.com/yt/about/de/. In the course of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google become aware of which specific page of our website the data subject is visiting.
If the data subject is logged in to YouTube at the same time, YouTube recognizes with each visit to a page containing a YouTube video, which specific page of our website the data subject is visiting. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to the respective YouTube account of the data subject.
YouTube and Google receive information that the data subject has visited our website whenever the data subject is logged in to YouTube at the time of the visit, regardless of whether the data subject clicks the YouTube video or not. If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to YouTube and Google, they can prevent the transmission by logging out of their YouTube account before accessing our website.
The privacy policy published by YouTube, available at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/, provides information about the collection, processing, and use of personal data by YouTube and Google.

11. Google Maps
This site uses the Google Maps API interface. To use the features of Google Maps, it is necessary to store your IP address. This information is usually transmitted to a server of Google in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transmission. The use of Google Maps is in the interest of providing an attractive presentation of our online services and making it easy to find the locations specified on the website. This constitutes a legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. Google Maps is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Privacy notice for Google Maps.

12. Legal Basis for Processing
Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing activities where we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract, of which the data subject is a party, such as processing activities required for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to processing activities necessary for the execution of pre-contractual measures, such as inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation requiring the processing of personal data, such as for fulfilling tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be required to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, such as if a visitor were to be injured and their name, age, health insurance data, or other vital information needed to be passed on to a doctor, hospital, or other third parties. In this case, the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing activities could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR, which allows for processing activities that are not covered by the previous legal bases if the processing is necessary for the protection of the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not override these interests. Such processing activities are particularly allowed as they were specifically mentioned by the European legislator, who considered that a legitimate interest may be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47, sentence 2 GDPR).

13.Legitimate Interests Pursued by the Controller or a Third Party
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is the operation of our business for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and stakeholders.

14.Duration for Which Personal Data Is Stored
The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. Once the period expires, the relevant data will be routinely deleted, provided they are no longer required for contract fulfillment or pre-contractual measures.

15.Legal or Contractual Requirements for Providing Personal Data; Necessity for Contract Conclusion; Obligation of the Data Subject to Provide Personal Data; Possible Consequences of Non-Providing
We inform you that the provision of personal data is sometimes required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or may arise from contractual arrangements (e.g., details of the contractual partner). In some cases, it may be necessary for the data subject to provide us with personal data in order to conclude a contract, and in such cases, the personal data must be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obligated to provide us with personal data if our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would result in the contract not being concluded. Before providing personal data, the data subject should contact our Data Protection Officer, who will clarify whether the provision of personal data is legally or contractually required or necessary for contract conclusion, whether there is an obligation to provide personal data, and what consequences the failure to provide personal data would have.

16.Existence of Automated Decision-Making
As a responsible company, we refrain from automated decision-making or profiling.

This privacy policy was created using the privacy policy generator of DGD Deutsche Gesellschaft für Datenschutz GmbH, operating as the external data protection officer for Lower Franconia, in cooperation with the data protection lawyers of the law firm WILDE BEUGER SOLMECKE | Rechtsanwält
