The only information required to receive the newsletter is an email address. The provision of further, separately marked data is voluntary and is only used to be able to address you personally. After your confirmation, we will save your email address for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. The processing of the data entered when signing up for our newsletter is carried out exclusively on the basis of user consent (Art. 6 para. 1 a) GDPR).

The data 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 after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data we have stored for other purposes (e.g. email addresses for the log in) are not affected. We only use these data to send the requested information and do not pass them on to third parties.

All the links in the email are so-called tracking links that allow clicks to be counted. You can find further information on the analysis functions of Rapidmail under the following link: https://de.rapidmail.wiki/kategorien/statistiken/
