Restriction of processing: In certain cases, you can request that we restrict the processing of your data.
Data portability: If you have provided us with data on the basis of a contract or consent, you may request that you receive the data you have provided in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or that we transmit it to another person responsible.
Right of objection:
- Individual right of objection
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing of your personal data which is based on Article 6 (1) (e) of the EU GDPR or Article 6 (1) (f) of the EU GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions. We will then no longer process this personal data for these purposes, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
- Right to object to the processing of data for direct marketing purposes
In individual cases, we process your data for direct marketing purposes. You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling, insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will then no longer be processed for these purposes.
Revocation of consent: Insofar as you have given us your consent to process your data, you can revoke this at any time with effect for the future. However, the legality of the processing of your data until the point of revocation remains unaffected by this. In addition to the options mentioned under "Asserting your rights", you can also declare a revocation in accordance with the respective instructions on "Exercising the revocation" in the "Services & cookies" section.
Asserting your rights: To exercise all of your aforementioned rights, please contact info(at)demopark.de or send a letter to the address provided in section 1 above. Please ensure that we are able to clearly identify you.
Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority: You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you believe that the processing of personal data relating to you is unlawful.
1.4 Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
Automated decisions in individual cases, including profiling within the meaning of Art. 22 of the EU GDPR, do not take place in connection with the use of our service.
1.5 Recipients of personal data
Internally, only those persons have access to data that need it for the stated purposes.
We only pass on your personal data to external recipients if this is necessary for the purpose of processing, if we are legally authorised to do so or if we have your consent to do so.
External recipients can be:
a) Processors: Service providers that we use for the provision of services, for example in the areas of technical infrastructure and maintenance for our offering or the provision of content. Processors are strictly bound by contractual agreements with us in accordance with the relevant data protection regulations. They process your data exclusively in accordance with our instructions.
b) Public bodies: Under certain circumstances, your data may be passed on to government bodies if they have made a request on a corresponding legal basis.
c) Non-public bodies: Dealers or auxiliary persons to whom data is transmitted on the basis of consent or mandatory necessity.
1.6 Data processing in third countries
If data is transferred to locations outside the European Economic Area, we work towards an appropriate level of data protection for the transfer of personal data outside the EEA by concluding appropriate agreements with the recipients, which are regularly concluded on the basis of the EU standard contractual clauses, before the data is transferred, unless the European Commission has issued an adequacy decision for the third country.
1.7 Storage period
We generally only store your personal data for as long as is necessary in order to fulfil the purposes described or – in the case of consent – for as long as you have not withdrawn your consent. In the event of an objection, we will delete your personal data, unless its further processing is permitted under the relevant statutory provisions.
We will also delete your personal data if we are obliged to do so for legal reasons.
2. Purposes and legal bases of the data processing that takes place when using this website
When you access our website, communication-related information (for example your IP address) or usage-related information (for example information on the start time and duration of use) is automatically generated by technical means. This information may allow conclusions to be drawn about your person.
2.1 Log files
When you visit and use our website, our web server automatically saves certain log information about this process in a file (log file). This information regularly includes your browser type/version, the operating system used, the page accessed, the previously visited page (referrer URL), the IP address, the date and time of the server request and the HTTP status code.
This processing is technically necessary in order to be able to display our website to you and serves in particular to improve our online offering, as well as to eliminate errors and faults. We process this data to protect our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) of the EU GDPR. Our legitimate interest here is the aforementioned purpose. The log files are deleted 7 days after creation.
2.2 Cookies
On our website www.demopark.de, we use cookies in order to offer a comprehensive range of functions, to make its use more convenient and to be able to optimise our offers. Cookies are small text files that are generated by a web server and stored on your computer during your online visit by the web browser you are using.
On the one hand, we use so-called "session cookies". These are automatically deleted at the end of your browser session.
We also use long-term cookies, which are primarily intended to provide you with consistent settings as a repeat visitor to our website. This enables us to customise our website to your individual requirements. Long-term cookies also enable us to analyse the usage behaviour of visitors, but only for the duration of the cookie's validity.
In addition, further cookies may also be set by their providers in connection with the integration of certain third-party services (see below).
If you do not wish cookies to be used, you can prevent them from being stored on your device by making the appropriate settings in your web browser. However, please note that the overall functionality and range of functions of our website may then be limited as a result. Beyond this, we will only set certain cookies if you have given your prior consent. You can also make use of separate objection options for certain cookies.
2.3 Matomo
In order to continuously improve our website, we use the statistical analysis tool "Matomo" from InnoCraft Ltd, 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand. This enables us to analyse the use of our website and regularly improve it with the statistics obtained. This allows us to make our website even more interesting for you as a user.
Matomo uses cookies, which are stored on the user's computer and enable us to analyse the use of our online offering by users. Pseudonymised user profiles can be created from the processed data (typically the IP address, time of visit, device and browser information, as well as information about your use of our website).
We only store the information that we collect in this way in Europe. The AWS server we use is located in Frankfurt.
This service is used on the basis of your consent in accordance with Section 25 (1) Sentence 1 of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG) or - with regard to the subsequent processing of your personal data - Art. 6 (1) (a) of the EU GDPR.
