2. Collection of general data and information

The Börsenmentor website collects a range of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. These general data and information are stored in the server's log files. The (1) browser types and versions 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 can be controlled, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems. 
When using this general data and information, Börsenmentor does not draw any conclusions about the person concerned. Rather, this information is required to (1) correctly deliver the content of our website, (2) optimize the content of our website and the advertising for it, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website and ( 4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for law enforcement in the event of a cyber attack. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated statistically by the stock exchange mentor on the one hand and also with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data in the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

3. Subscription to our newsletter

On the Börsenmentor website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our company's newsletter. Which personal data is transmitted to the person responsible for processing when the newsletter is ordered results from the input mask used for this purpose. 
Börsenmentor informs its customers and business partners at regular intervals by means of a newsletter about company offers. Our company's newsletter can only be received by the person concerned if (1) the person concerned has a valid e-mail address and (2) the person concerned registers to receive the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address entered by a person concerned for the first time for the newsletter dispatch using the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation email is used to check whether the owner of the email address, as the person concerned, has authorized the receipt of the newsletter.
When registering for the newsletter, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the computer system used by the person concerned at the time of registration as well as the date and time of registration are also saved. The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to trace the (possible) misuse of the e-mail address of a data subject at a later point in time and therefore serves to provide legal protection for the person responsible for processing.
The personal data collected when registering for the newsletter will only be used to send our newsletter. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter could be informed by e-mail if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or a relevant registration, as this could be the case in the case of changes to the newsletter offer or changes in the technical conditions. The personal data collected as part of the newsletter service will not be passed on to third parties. The data subject can cancel the subscription to our newsletter at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has given us for sending the newsletter can be revoked at any time. There is a corresponding link in every newsletter for the purpose of withdrawing consent. It is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter dispatch directly on the website of the person responsible for processing or to inform the person responsible for processing of this in another way.

4. Newsletter tracking

Börsenmentor's newsletters contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in e-mails that are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This enables a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns to be carried out. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, Börsenmentor can recognize whether and when an e-mail was opened by a person concerned and which links in the e-mail were called up by the person concerned. Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and evaluated by the person responsible for processing in order to optimize the newsletter dispatch and to better adapt the content of future newsletters to the interests of the person concerned. These personal data will not be passed on to third parties. Affected persons are entitled at any time to revoke the relevant separate declaration of consent given via the double opt-in procedure. After a revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the person responsible for processing. The stock exchange mentor automatically interprets a cancellation from the receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.

5. Contact options via the website

Due to legal regulations, the Börsenmentor website contains information that enables quick electronic contact with our company and direct communication with us, which also includes a general address for so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the person responsible for processing by email or a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject will be automatically saved. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the person responsible for processing are stored for the purposes of processing or contacting the data subject. This personal data is not passed on to third parties.

6. Comment function in the blog on the website

Börsenmentor offers users the option of leaving individual comments on individual blog posts on a blog located on the website of the controller. A blog is a website that is usually open to the public and in which one or more people, called bloggers or web bloggers, can post articles or write down thoughts in so-called blog posts. The blog posts can usually be commented on by third parties. 
If a person concerned leaves a comment on the blog published on this website, in addition to the comments left by the person concerned, information on the time the comment was entered and the username (pseudonym) chosen by the person concerned are stored and published. In addition, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) to the person concerned is also logged. The IP address is stored for security reasons and in the event that the person concerned violates the rights of third parties by submitting a comment or posts illegal content. The storage of this personal data is therefore in the own interest of the person responsible for the processing, so that he can exculpate himself in the event of a violation of the law. This collected personal data will not be passed on to third parties unless such a transfer is required by law or serves the legal defense of the person responsible for the processing.

16. Data protection provisions on the application and use of Jetpack for WordPress

The controller has integrated Jetpack on this website. Jetpack is a WordPress plug-in that offers the operator of a website that is based on WordPress additional functions. Jetpack allows the website operator, among other things, an overview of the visitors to the site. By displaying related articles and publications or the ability to share content on the site, it is also possible to increase the number of visitors. In addition, security functions are integrated in Jetpack so that a website using Jetpack is better protected against brute force attacks. Jetpack also optimizes and accelerates the loading of the images integrated on the website. 
The operating company of the Jetpack plug-in for WordPress is Automattic Inc., 132 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. The operating company uses the tracking technology from Quantcast Inc., 201 Third Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA.

Jetpack places a cookie on the information technology system of the person concerned. What cookies are has already been explained above. Each time one of the individual pages of this website is accessed, which is operated by the person responsible for processing and on which a Jetpack component has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the person concerned is automatically prompted by the respective Jetpack component to provide data for analysis purposes to be transmitted to Automattic. As part of this technical process, Automattic gains knowledge of data that is subsequently used to create an overview of website visits.

The data collected via the Jetpack component will not be used to identify the person concerned without the prior express consent of the person concerned. The data is also made known to Quantcast. Quantcast uses the data for the same purposes as Automattic.
The person concerned can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as already shown above, at any time by means of a corresponding setting in the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the internet browser used would also prevent Automattic / Quantcast from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the person concerned. In addition, cookies already set by Automattic can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.
 
Furthermore, the data subject has the option of objecting to the collection of the data generated by the Jetpack cookie relating to the use of this website and the processing of this data by Automattic / Quantcast and to prevent this. To do this, the person concerned must press the opt-out button under the link https://www.quantcast.com/opt-out/, which sets an opt-out cookie. The opt-out cookie set with the objection is stored on the information technology system used by the person concerned. If the cookies are deleted on the data subject's system after an objection, the data subject must call up the link again and set a new opt-out cookie. With the setting of the opt-out cookie, however, there is the possibility that the website of the person responsible for processing can no longer be used in full by the person concerned.

18. Analysis email / newsletter dispatch

a) Analysis emails

Insofar as we send you analyzes booked by you as part of our service provision by e-mail ("analysis e-mails") to the e-mail address you have stored with us, this is done to fulfill the contract on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 letter b GDPR. You can deactivate the receipt of the analysis emails at any time during the term of a subscription via the corresponding link at the end of an analysis email as well as via our portal. Deactivating the analysis emails does not constitute a cancellation of the respective subscription. If you want to receive the analysis emails again, you can request them again at any time during the term of a subscription via the portal. Further information on analysis emails can be found in our terms and conditions (https://www.boersenmentor.de/agb).

b) newsletter

In order to register for our newsletter, it is sufficient if you provide the mandatory information marked with the (*) note. This usually includes your name, email address and country. In addition, you can optionally provide further voluntary information with which you can make it easier for us to select and design the newsletter in a way that is tailored to interested parties. 
We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to send the newsletter, ie we will only send you a newsletter by e-mail if you have expressly confirmed to us beforehand that we should activate the newsletter service. We will send you a notification e-mail and ask you to confirm that you would like to receive our newsletter by clicking on a link contained in this e-mail. By completing this separate double opt-in procedure, you have given your consent to receive the newsletter.
 
We only send newsletters after you have registered, ie with your consent on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 Letter a GDPR. The right to recourse to other legal legal bases is expressly reserved. If the contents of the newsletter are specifically described when registering for the newsletter, these are decisive for the scope of the consent.

If you no longer want to receive newsletters from us later, you can revoke your consent at any time. A message in text form (e.g. e-mail, letter) to the above contact details or to sven.kretschmann [at] t-online.de is sufficient for this. Of course you will also find an unsubscribe link in every newsletter.

c) Shipping service provider

The analysis emails and the newsletter (hereinafter referred to as "emails") are sent by the mailing service provider MailChimp. The data processing takes place on our behalf on the basis of an order processing contract that we have concluded with MailChimp. In this, MailChimp obliges to protect the data of our users, to process them only on our behalf and, in particular, not to pass them on to third parties. 

You can view the data protection provisions of MailChimp here:  https://mailchimp.com/about/security/

MailChimp uses your data to send and statistically evaluate the emails on our behalf. The e-mails contain web beacons or tracking pixels for this purpose. These are one-pixel image files that are stored on our website. This allows your user behavior to be traced, in particular whether you have opened the e-mail or which hyperlinks in the e-mail you clicked. MailChimp  can also perform conversion tracking, i.e. determine whether a previously desired action has taken place after clicking the hyperlink in the email. In addition, technical information such as the time of access, your IP address, data on your web browser and the operating system are recorded. These data are only collected in a pseudonymized manner. The data will not be linked to any other personal data. A direct personal reference is excluded. 
Tracking using web beacons is not possible if you have deactivated the display of images by default in your e-mail program. In this case, however, the e-mail will not be displayed in full and you may not be able to use all functions. If you display the images manually, the tracking mentioned above takes place.

19. Orders

21. Legal basis for processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary 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 operations that are required to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, for example to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, it may be necessary to process personal data in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our company were injured and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the person concerned do not prevail. We are particularly permitted to carry out such processing operations because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, he took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the person concerned is a customer of the person responsible (recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).

22. Legitimate interests in the processing that are being 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 conduct of our business activities for the benefit of all our employees and our shareholders.  

23. Duration for which the personal data will be stored

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After the period has expired, the relevant data is routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer required for contract fulfillment or contract initiation.

24. Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; Necessity for the conclusion of the contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision

We explain to you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner). In order to conclude a contract, it may sometimes be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data that we subsequently have to process. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data when our company concludes a contract with them. Failure to provide personal data would mean that the contract could not be concluded with the person concerned. Before the person concerned provides personal data, the person concerned must contact one of our employees. Our employee explains to the person concerned on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what consequences the failure to provide the personal data would have.

25. Existence of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making.
