This statement also informs you about which types of data we process for which purposes, and what rights you are entitled to.

We use your personal data to process your order with us. No disclosure or transfer to third parties will be made. Personal data transfers to government agencies will only be made within the bounds of mandatory national law or where disclosure is required in law or for the purpose of law enforcement in the event of attacks on our network infrastructure.

4. CONSENT FOR FURTHER USE

The use of certain offers on our website, such as newsletters or forums, may require prior registration and further processing of personal data, such as longer-term storage of email addresses, user IDs and passwords. Such data will only be used if you have forwarded them to us and expressly consented to their use in advance. In the following cases, for example, we will ask you separately for your consent.

4.1 NEWSLETTER AND PRESS MAILING LIST

In order to register for the newsletter service of BELASSI GmbH, we need at least your email address to which the newsletter is to be sent. Further information is voluntary and will only be used on the basis of your consent, for example, in order to address you personally and to be able to clarify any queries regarding the email address. For postal delivery, we need your address details. In the case of press distributors, information about the press organization you work for is necessary so that we know that a press body is actually being supplied. In general, we use the double opt-in procedure for registration. This means that we will not send any newsletters to you until you have confirmed your registration via an email sent by us and a link contained therein. The login and confirmation will be logged. This is to ensure that only you can register yourself as a user of the specified email address in the newsletter service. Your confirmation must be sent to us promptly, otherwise your registration and email address in our database will be deleted. Until confirmed by you, our newsletter service will not accept further registrations using this email address. You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time. You can either send us an email or cancel it using the link at the bottom of the newsletter.

5. COOKIES

Some parts of this website use so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and stored by your browser. By storing cookies, our web server can recognize your browser, your individual settings on our web pages and, if necessary, parts of the registration data in encrypted form, thus facilitating the use of our pages and enabling automatic login. Your browser settings give you the option to reject cookies, delete cookies from your computer, block cookies, or be asked before a cookie is stored. The cookies we store are deleted from your computer after each session.

6. WEB ANALYTICS

No personal user profiles are created. However, the Telecommunications Act (TKG) allows the use of user profiles under a pseudonym for purposes of advertising, market research and the needs-based design of offers, unless the user objects to this. We also use web analytics services provided by WiredMinds on our websites, which performs web analysis for us as a processor. The services have been checked by supervisory authorities or experts and fulfill all requirements of Austrian and European data protection law. The technologies of the providers on our websites collect and store data. These data are used to create user profiles under pseudonyms for marketing and optimization purposes. Cookies can be used for this purpose. Cookies are small text files stored locally in the cache of the site visitor’s internet browser. Cookies enable recognition of the internet browser. Furthermore, your usage behavior can be measured using a JavaScript code and the data collected can be transmitted via an HTML connection directly to the provider’s server. Without your explicit consent, the data collected by the tracking technologies will not be used to personally identify you. The collected data will also not be merged with personal data about the bearer of the pseudonym. Cross-site analysis is also not performed. If you want to prevent the tracking by technical means, you can disable JavaScript and cookies in your web browser. Moreover, you can also object to data collection and storage at any time with effect for the future. This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, but please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

7. GOOGLE FONTS

We use fonts (“Google Fonts”) from the provider Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/, Opt-Out: https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated.

8. SOCIAL PLUGINS

Some of our websites also use social plugins, for example those of the social networks Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or Google+. These are often technically operated in the USA or other countries outside Austria and the EU, and in some cases offered via national companies in the EU (see the websites www.facebook.at, www.twitter.at, www.youtube.at, www.instagram.com, www.linkedin.com or www.google.at). The plugins are, for example, marked with the company logo, comment fields or a so-called “Like”, “Like” or “+1” button. If you open a page of our website in your web browser that contains such a plugin, your web browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of the respective provider in the respective country. By integrating the plugins, the provider receives at least the information that you have visited a certain page of our website, possibly also other information that your web browser or your used device reveal. The content of the plugin is downloaded from your web browser directly from the provider and integrated into our website. If you interact with a plugin, for example, click the “Like” button or leave a comment in a form field, this information is also transmitted by your browser directly to the provider and stored there and, where appropriate, further used and published. The purpose and scope of the described data collection and use are, in particular, marketing measures of the provider and of Belassi GmbH. You can read details about this and your rights and settings options for protecting your privacy directly from the respective provider in their privacy policy. If you do not want a provider to collect data about you from our web pages, you must disable plugins in your web browser. If you want to avoid linking to a possibly existing user account, you must log out before visiting our web pages. By visiting our web pages, you agree to the above terms.
