DATA PROTECTION

Thank you for visiting our website. The management of BLN.athletics attaches particular importance to the protection of your data. It is possible to use our website without providing any personal data.

In the event that personal data is processed and there is no legal basis for processing, we obtain the consent of the person concerned.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address or telephone number of the person concerned, is always carried out in compliance with the European General Data Protection Regulation and the country-specific data protection law applicable to BLN.athletics.

As the person responsible for data processing, BLN.athletics has implemented extensive technical and organizational measures to protect the data processed via this website as comprehensively as possible. However, data transmissions on the Internet may have security gaps and complete protection is not possible. Anyone affected is therefore free to transfer personal data to us by other means, for example by telephone.

4. COOKIES

The BLN.athletics website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored and stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.

Many cookies contain a unique identifier, a so-called cookie ID. With this cookie ID, visited websites and servers can be assigned to the Internet browser used for this purpose in which this cookie was stored. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the data subject's Internet browser from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. This allows a specific Internet browser and thus possibly an affected person to be recognized and identified.

By using cookies, BLN.athletics can provide users with the information and offers on our website in an optimized way for the user. Cookies make it possible to recognize users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website.

The person concerned can prevent the storage of cookies by our website at any time by changing the settings of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the storage of cookies. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If cookies are deactivated by the person concerned, it may not be possible to fully use all functions of our websites.

5. COLLECTION OF GENERAL DATA AND INFORMATION

Our website collects a range of general information each time it is accessed by an affected person or an automated system. This general information is stored in our web server's log files. The browsers and versions used, the operating system used by the accessing system, the website from which an accessing system accesses our website, the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website, the date and time of access to our website, an Internet protocol address (IP address), the Internet service provider of the accessing system and other similar information that serves to avert the risk of We use attacks on our systems.

When using these general data and information, BLN.athletics does not draw any conclusions about the person concerned. Rather, this information is required to correctly deliver the content of our website, to optimize advertising for it, to ensure the long-term functionality of our systems and technology on our website, and to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for law enforcement in the event of a cyber attack. On the one hand, this anonymously collected information is statistically evaluated by BLN.athletics. This information is also analyzed to increase data protection and data security and to ensure the protection of the personal data we process. The anonymous data in the log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

6. REGISTRATION ON OUR WEBSITE

The person concerned has the option to register on our website of the person responsible for processing by providing personal data. The personal data that is transmitted to the person responsible results from the respective input mask that is used for registration. The personal data entered by the person concerned is collected and stored exclusively for registration. The person responsible can arrange for the transfer to one or more contract processors, who also use the personal data exclusively for internal use attributable to the person responsible.

By registering on the website of the person responsible for processing, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider of the person concerned, the date and time of registration are also stored. The storage of this data serves to prevent misuse of our services. This data can help to solve crimes that have been committed. In principle, this data will not be passed on to third parties unless there is a legal obligation to transfer it or the transfer is for law enforcement purposes.

The registration of the data subject, voluntarily providing personal data, is used by the person responsible to offer the data subject content or services that can only be offered to registered users. Registered persons are free to change the personal data provided during registration at any time or to have them completely deleted from the controller's database.

Within the legal framework, the person responsible provides each person concerned with information on which personal data of the person concerned is stored at any time upon request. Furthermore, the person responsible will correct or delete personal data at the request or notice of the person concerned, provided that there are no legal storage obligations to the contrary. The data protection officer and all employees of the person responsible are available as contacts for the person concerned in this context.

7. NEWSLETTER SUBSCRIPTION

On the BLN.athletics website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our company's newsletter free of charge. Which personal data is transmitted to the person responsible for processing when ordering the newsletter is determined by the input mask used for this purpose.

BLN.athletics informs its customers and business partners regularly by means of a newsletter about enterprise offers and news. In principle, our company's newsletter can only be received by the person concerned if the person concerned has a valid e-mail address and the person concerned has registered to receive the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation email will be sent to the email address registered by the person concerned for the first time to send the newsletter. This confirmation email is used to check whether the owner of the e-mail address as the data subject has allowed the receipt of the newsletter.

When subscribing to the newsletter, we also store the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider of the computer system used by the data subject at the time of registration and the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to trace a possible misuse of a person's e-mail address at a later date and therefore serves to provide legal protection for the person responsible.

The personal data collected as part of a newsletter subscription is used exclusively to send our newsletter. In addition, subscribers to the newsletter could be informed by e-mail about changes to the newsletter offering or changes in technical conditions. The personal data collected for the newsletter service will not be passed on to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter can be canceled by the subscriber at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the subscriber has given us for sending the newsletter can be withdrawn at any time. There is a link in every newsletter to withdraw consent and cancel the subscription. The notification that the newsletter has ended can also be sent to the person responsible in another way.

8. NEWSLETTER TRACKING

The newsletter from BLN.athletics contains so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in such emails, which are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. As a result, a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns can be carried out. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, BLN.athletics can see whether and when an e-mail was opened by a data subject and which links in the e-mail were called up by the data subject.

Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters is stored and evaluated by the person responsible for processing in order to optimize newsletter delivery and to adapt the content of future newsletters even better to the interests of the data subject. This personal data will not be passed on to third parties. Affected persons are entitled to revoke the relevant separate declaration of consent submitted via the double opt-in procedure at any time. After a revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the person responsible for processing. BLN.Athletics automatically interprets a cancellation from the receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.

9. CONTACT OPTION VIA THE WEBSITE

The BLN.athletics website contains an e-mail address and a telephone number, which enable quick electronic contact as well as direct communication with our company. If a person concerned contacts the person responsible by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject will be automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted by a person concerned to the person responsible on a voluntary basis are stored exclusively for the purpose of processing or contacting the person concerned. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.

10. COMMENT FUNCTION IN THE BLOG ON THE WEBSITE

The BLN.Athletics offers users a blog, which is located on the website of the person responsible. Here you can leave individual comments on individual contributions. A blog is a publicly accessible portal on a website, in which one or more people (bloggers) publish articles or write down thoughts in so-called blog posts. The blog posts can 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 about the time the comment was entered and the user name (pseudonym) chosen by the person concerned will be stored and published. In addition, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the person concerned is also logged. The IP address is stored for security reasons in the event that the person concerned violates the rights of third parties or posts illegal content by submitting a comment. There will be no transfer of this collected personal data to third parties unless such transfer is required by law or serves the legal defense of the person responsible for processing.

11. SUBSCRIPTION TO COMMENTS ON THE BLOG ON THE WEBSITE

The comments made on the Elbgym blog can be subscribed to by third parties. In particular, it is possible for a commentator to subscribe to the comments following his comment on a specific blog post.

This also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct marketing. If the person concerned objects to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.

In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his particular situation, to object to the relevant processing of personal data carried out by BLN.athletics for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89 (1) GDPR, unless the processing is necessary to perform a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

14. DATA PROTECTION IN APPLICATIONS AND IN THE APPLICATION PROCESS

The person responsible collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application process. Processing can also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case when an applicant submits relevant application documents to the person responsible electronically, for example by e-mail or via a web form on the website. If the person responsible concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal regulations. If the person responsible does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that deletion does not conflict with any other legitimate interests of the person responsible for processing. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a duty of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

15. LEGAL BASIS OF PROCESSING

According to Article 6 (1) a GDPR, BLN.athletics serves as the legal basis for processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a contract to which the person concerned is a party, as is the case, for example, in processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Article 6 (1) b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary 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, such as to fulfill tax obligations, processing is based on Article 6 (1) c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data could be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subjects or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance details or other vital information would then have to be passed on to a doctor, a hospital or other third parties. Processing would then be based on Article 6 (1) d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Article 6 (1) f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if processing is necessary to protect 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 permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the legislator (recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).

16. LEGITIMATE INTERESTS IN PROCESSING PURSUED BY THE PERSON RESPONSIBLE OR BY A THIRD PARTY

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of all our employees and shareholders.

17. PERIOD FOR WHICH PERSONAL DATA IS STORED

The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiry of the period, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted unless it is no longer required to fulfill or initiate a contract.

18. 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 FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE PERSONAL DATA

We would like to inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information about the contractual partner). Sometimes, in order to conclude a contract, it may be necessary for a person concerned to provide us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. To conclude a contract, the person concerned is obliged to provide us with personal data. If the person concerned does not provide his personal data, no contract can be concluded with the person concerned. Before personal data is provided by the person concerned, the person concerned may contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer will inform the person concerned on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of 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.

19. EXISTENCE OF AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING

Our company does not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

20. USE OF GOOGLE ANALYTICS

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). The use is based on Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Google also processes your personal data in the USA and has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework .

22. FACEBOOK

Our website uses social plugins (plugins) from the Facebook social network. This service is provided by Facebook Inc. (Facebook), 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. The plugins can be recognized by one of the various Facebook logos (white “f” on a blue tile or a “thumbs up” sign) or are marked with the addition “Facebook Social Plugin”. The list and appearance of Facebook social plugins can be viewed here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

When a user visits a page on our website that contains such a plugin, his browser creates a direct connection with the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser and integrated into the website by it. We therefore have no influence on the amount of data that Facebook collects using this plugin and therefore inform those affected according to its state of knowledge:

By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that a user has accessed the corresponding page of the offer. If the user is logged into Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to their Facebook account. When users interact with the plugins, for example by pressing the Like button or making a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser to Facebook and stored there. If a user is not a member of Facebook, it is still possible for Facebook to find out and store his IP address. According to Facebook, only an anonymized IP address is stored in Germany.

The purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by Facebook, as well as the related rights and settings options to protect users' privacy, can be found in Facebook's privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

If a user is a Facebook member and does not want Facebook to collect data about him via this offer and link it to his membership data stored on Facebook, he must log out of Facebook before visiting the website.

Further settings and objections to the use of data for advertising purposes are possible within the Facebook profile settings: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=adsoder via the website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. The settings are platform-independent, i.e. they are adopted for all devices, such as desktop computers or mobile devices.

23. FACEBOOK REMARKETING/RETARGETING

We use remarketing tags from Facebook Inc. on our website pages. (Facebook), 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. When you visit our pages, the remarketing tags establish a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook server. Facebook thus receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. This allows Facebook to associate your visit to our pages with your user account. We can use the information obtained in this way to display Facebook ads. We would like to point out that, as the provider of the pages, we are not aware of the content of the transmitted data and its use by Facebook. For more information, please see Facebook's privacy policy at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

If you do not want advertising via Custom Audience, you can object here by following this link: https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen.

24TH FACEBOOK PIXEL

With your consent, we use the Facebook pixel (visitor action pixel) on our website pages to measure visitor conversion. The service is provided by Facebook Inc. (Facebook), 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. With its help, we can track the actions of users after they have seen or clicked on a Facebook ad. This allows us to record the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes.
