Mandatory fields are marked with an asterisk (*). Providing further details is optional. The information you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing your request and for any follow-up questions.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">The legal basis for processing your data is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

We will use this data exclusively to send you the requested information and will not pass it on to third parties.<\/p><p>The processing of data entered into the newsletter signup form is carried out exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

The data you enter for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter (e.g. email address) will be stored on CleverReach's servers in Germany or Ireland.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Our newsletters sent via CleverReach enable us to analyse the behaviour of newsletter recipients. This includes analysing how many recipients opened the newsletter and how often each link within the newsletter was clicked. Using so-called conversion tracking, it can also be analysed whether a predefined action (e.g. the purchase of a product on our website) took place after clicking a link in the newsletter. Further information on data analysis through CleverReach newsletters can be found at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cleverreach.com\/de\/funktionen\/reporting-und-tracking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.cleverreach.com\/de\/funktionen\/reporting-und-tracking\/<\/a>.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">The data processing is carried out on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The lawfulness of any data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by the withdrawal.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">If you do not want analysis by CleverReach, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message. Furthermore, you can also unsubscribe from the newsletter directly on the website.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">The data you have provided to us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from both our servers and CleverReach's servers after you unsubscribe. Data stored by us for other purposes (e.g. email addresses for the members' area) will remain unaffected.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">You can find more details in CleverReach's data protection regulations at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cleverreach.com\/de\/datenschutz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.cleverreach.com\/de\/datenschutz\/<\/a>.<\/p><p><strong>Conclusion of a contract for the processing of contract data<\/strong><\/p><p>We have concluded a contract for order processing with CleverReach and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using CleverReach.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>SSL encryption<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption methods (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Data deletion<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">We only store your personal data for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes stated herein or as required by the various retention periods provided for by law.
