Subscription to our newsletter

On our website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to one or more newsletters. The system kulturkurier.de of the data kulturlink ag (Berlin) is used as the newsletter system. In this case, the so-called double-optin method is used for legally compliant and privacy-compliant design. The potential recipient first receives an e-mail with a confirmation link. Only after successful confirmation the address will be added to the mailing list. You can revoke your consent to the storage of your data as well as the use of your address for the despatch via the "unsubscribe link" at the end of each newsletter. More information can be found here. Which personal data are transmitted to the data controller when the newsletter is ordered results from the input mask used for this purpose. When subscribing to the newsletter, we also store the IP address of the computer system used by the person concerned at the time of registration, as well as the date and time of registration, as assigned by the Internet Service Provider (ISP). The collection of this data is necessary in order to understand the (possible) misuse of an affected person's e-mail address at a later date and therefore serves as legal safeguard for the controller. The personal data collected when registering for the newsletter will be used exclusively to send our newsletter. Subscribers to the newsletter may also be notified via e-mail if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or registration, as might be the case in the event of changes to the newsletter or technical changes. There will be no transfer of the personal data collected as part of the newsletter service to third parties. For the tracking of opening and click rates, we use so-called tracking codes in the newsletter (but not in the system mails for subscribing and unsubscribing) to record the opening of newsletters and the opening of web links. The capture is done in a pseudonymised storage by replacing all personal data (for example, the e-mail address) with a key figure (pseudonym). As a result, we do not store any personal data together with the usage data such as the opening of the newsletter or the opening of web links. Furthermore, it is ensured that a combination of these data cannot be done later. If you as a recipient want to object to this pseudonymised tracking, you can unsubscribe from the list via the opt-out link at the end of each newsletter.
