The legal basis for data processing is Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 (f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our legitimate interest is derived from the data collection purposes listed above. We never use the data collected for the purpose of drawing conclusions about you.

These photos and videos are collected for the purpose of presenting the events in brochures and press reports and on social media channels and FWTM websites.

This serves the purposes of our legitimate and, on balance, overriding interests in depicting the event for advertising purposes and in addressing our customers pursuant to Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 (f) GDPR. We never use the data collected for the purpose of drawing conclusions about you.

We carefully select and instruct these service providers, and they are bound to our instructions and are subject to regular checks. We will not transfer your personal data to third parties for any purposes other than those listed below. We will only transfer your personal data to third parties if:

  • You have given express consent pursuant to Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 (a) GDPR,
  • Data transfer is required for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding legitimate interest in your data not being transferred, pursuant to Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 (f) GDPR,
  • Transfer is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation pursuant to Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 (c) GDPR, and
  • This is legally admissible and is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are party pursuant to Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 (b) GDPR.

2. We may also pass on your personal data to third parties in the event that we offer special promotions, competitions, the conclusion of contracts or similar services in collaboration with partners. You will receive more detailed information on this when you provide us with personal data or in the description of the offer in question.

Section 4 — Duration of storage of your data

1. If you contact us by email, we will store the data you share with us (your email address and possibly your name and telephone number) so that we can reply to you. Once it is no longer necessary for us to store the data we receive in this context, we will erase it, or limit its processing if it is subject to statutory retention obligations.

In the event that this contractual relationship comes to an end or that you exercise the rights listed in Section 5, your data will be treated in accordance with the right or rights which you have exercised as set out in Section 5, and may be erased, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

If you visit our website again, it will automatically detect that you have already visited. It will also detect what submissions you have made previously and what settings you have configured, so that you will not need to re-enter this information.

Section 8 — Use of Google Analytics

We use the Google Analytics tracking tool from Google on our website. We use Google Analytics to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the activities within this website and to provide other services related to the use of the website and thus to improve the user experience. When Google Analytics is used, the interactions of website visitors are primarily recorded and systematically evaluated with the aid of cookies. Details on the cookies used can be found in our cookie information. We use Google Analytics with the extension "anonymizeIp()". This shortens IP addresses within the member states of the EU or EEA. If a transmission to Google's servers in the USA takes place, the full IP address is only transmitted in exceptional cases and shortened there. A direct reference to a person is therefore generally excluded. In particular, an assignment to the called computer or terminal of the website visitor is no longer possible. The following data is processed through the use of Google Analytics:

  • 3 bytes of the IP address of the called system of the website visitor (anonymized IP address),
  • the website called up,
  • the website from which the user reached the accessed page of our website (referrer),
  • the subpages accessed from the website,
  • the time spent on the website
  • the frequency with which the website is accessed.

Google states that it will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. The legal basis for the data processing is your prior consent in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 sentence 1 (a) GDPR.

Revocation of your consent:
You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by adjusting your preferences in our cookie settings or the settings options at http://www.google.de/ads/preferences. Please also note the information on the use of data by Google in the Google Partner Network at: http://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners/
 

Section 9 — Data security

When you visit our website, your security is protected by the widely used SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology combined with the highest level of encryption which is supported by your browser. This is generally 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we will instead use 128-bit v3 technology. If an individual page of our website is being transmitted in encrypted form, the key or lock depicted in the lower status bar of your browser will be shown as closed or locked. We also take appropriate technical and organisational safety precautions in order to protect your data against accidental or deliberate manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or unauthorised access by third parties. We are continuously improving our safety precautions in line with technological developments.
