We process personal data that we receive from you when subscribing to our newsletter.
Relevant data comprises, in particular, the form of address, your name, e-mail address, academic title, if any, and the newsletter you have chosen.
In addition, we process personal log data that are automatically collected for technical reasons when you subscribe or cancel your subscription to the newsletter. This data includes, in particular, your IP address, the time of subscription or cancellation, your choice of language and the lead source.
We also process data allowing us to analyze your user behavior using so-called web beacons (tracking pixels). The data processed in this context includes your IP address, your accesses and access frequency to our newsletters.
For the subscription to the newsletter, we are using the so-called double opt-in procedure, which means that we will not make the newsletter available to you until you have explicitly confirmed that you wish us to activate your subscription. Once you have gone through the subscription process, we will send a message to your e-mail address and ask you to click on a link in this e-mail to confirm that you wish to receive our newsletter. Your newsletter subscription will not be activated until you have confirmed it.
We process your data in compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz; "BDSG").
The processing of your personal data enables us to send you the newsletter you have chosen. The form of address and the name you have provided when subscribing to our newsletter will be used by us to personalize our newsletter.
In addition, we use your e-mail address within the double opt-in procedure to confirm your subscription.

The processing of your personal data will be carried out based on the consent you have given to us. You may withdraw such consent at any time. Please note that your withdrawal will have effect for the future only. It does not apply to any processing carried out before your withdrawal. Art. 6 (1) 1st subparagraph, lit. (a) GDPR is the legal basis which allows us to carry out these processing operations.

Within WINHELLER, your data will be received by those employees who are in charge of processing them. In addition, other so-called processors, as defined in Art. 28 GDPR, may receive your data in the course of services they are provid-ing, like hosting or newsletter services.

Your personal data collected by us in the context of your newsletter subscription will be processed by us as long as nec-essary for sending you the newsletters.
If you cancel your newsletter subscription, your personal data will be deleted immediately.
