In addition, technical information is recorded (e.g. time of retrieval, IP address, browser type and operating system). This information cannot be attributed to the respective newsletter recipient. It is used exclusively for the statistical analysis of newsletter campaigns. We can use the results of these analyses to better adapt future newsletters to the interests of our recipients.

The processing of your data is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can withdraw this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Data stored by us for other purposes will remain unaffected.
