Privacy Policy
1. Introductory remarks
Data is the basis for us to provide an excellent service. Our most important capital, however, is the trust of our contractual partners. Protecting the data provided by you and collected by us when using our services therefore has the highest priority for us. Therefore the observance of the legal regulations to the data security is self-evident for us.
2. Scope of the processing of your data
In this data privacy policy we inform you how we process your personal data and to which recipients it may be passed on. When this privacy policy refers to “data”, it always refers to personal data. This is data that is assigned or can be assigned to your person. In processing data, this privacy policy covers all forms of data handling, such as the collection, storage and linking of data, but also its transfer to other natural or legal persons who use your data for their own purposes, provided that you have consented to this transfer. However, you can revoke your consent to such transmission at any time, which means that we will not transmit your data to the respective third party.
The same applies to the processing of your data for purposes other than those for which we have collected it. For which purposes we collect which data about you, you can see point 4 of this data privacy policy. If you revoke your consent to the processing of your data for these other purposes, we will no longer use them for these purposes; however, your data will only be deleted if and when it is no longer required to be stored for other purposes and if we no longer have any legal obligations to store this data. Unless you have given us permission to process your data for specific purposes, we will no longer use your data for the delivery of advertising information of any kind to you three years after your last use of our service and will delete it after a further four years.
Since the protection of your data is very important to us, however, any processing will only take place under the conditions of this data privacy policy.
3. Scope of this privacy policy
This privacy policy applies to the processing and transmission of personal data by Alte Feuerwehr in connection with the procurement and processing of investments and information on investment projects.
4. Processing of your data
For the purposes mentioned above, we collect the following personal data about you:
– name and
– e-mail-address.
However, this data will only be used if you have given us your consent or if we need it to fulfil our contractual obligations.
Your e-mail address will also be used to send you promotional messages and mailings about opening days and other news. We will also use your email address to periodically send you newsletters with the same and similar content as the promotional messages and mailings. You can find more information on the subject of “e-mail newsletters” in point 5.
5. E-mail-newsletter
The following information will inform you about the contents of our newsletter as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedures and your rights of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to the receipt and procedures described.
Content of newsletter
We send newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications with information (hereinafter referred to as “newsletters”) only with the consent of the recipient or a legal permission. Our newsletter contains general information on Alte Feuerwehr as well as current information on our opening days and other news.
Double-Opt-In and logging
The registration to our newsletter takes place in a so-called Double-Opt-In procedure. This means that you will receive an e-mail after registration asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with external e-mail addresses.
The registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes storing the login and confirmation times as well as the IP address. Likewise the changes of your data stored with MailChimp are logged.
Use of the “MailChimp” dispatch service provider
The newsletter is sent via “MailChimp”, a newsletter distribution platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.
The e-mail addresses of our newsletter recipients, as well as their further data described in the context of these notes, are stored on the servers of MailChimp in the USA. MailChimp uses this information to send and evaluate the newsletter on our behalf. Furthermore, MailChimp can use this data according to its own information for the optimization or improvement of its own services, e.g. for the technical optimization of the dispatch and display of the newsletter or for economic purposes, to determine from which countries the recipients come. However, MailChimp does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them or pass them on to third parties.
We rely on the reliability and IT and data security of MailChimp. MailChimp is certified under the US-EU data protection agreement “Privacy Shield” and is thus committed to complying with EU data protection regulations. In addition, we have concluded a data processing agreement with MailChimp. This is a contract in which MailChimp undertakes to protect the data of our users, to process them on our behalf in accordance with their data protection regulations and, in particular, not to pass them on to third parties. The privacy policy of MailChimp can be viewed at https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/.
Registration data
To subscribe to the newsletter, we ask you to provide your email address, your first and last name.
Statistical survey and analysis
The newsletters contain a so-called “web-beacon”, i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the MailChimp server when the newsletter is opened. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval are collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services on the basis of technical data or target groups and their reading behaviour on the basis of their retrieval points (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or access times.
Statistical surveys also include determining whether newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our nor MailChimp’s aim to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users.
Online access and data management
There are cases where we direct the newsletter recipients to the MailChimp websites. For example, our newsletters contain a link with which newsletter recipients can call up the newsletters online (e.g. in the event of problems with the presentation of the e-mail program). Furthermore, newsletter recipients can subsequently correct their data, such as the e-mail address. Likewise, the privacy policy of MailChimp is only available on their site.
Termination/revocation
You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. At the same time, your consents to its dispatch via MailChimp and the statistical analyses expire. A separate revocation of the dispatch via MailChimp or the statistical evaluation is unfortunately not possible.
You will find a link to cancel the newsletter at the end of each newsletter or you can write to us at info@altefeuerwehr.at to cancel the newsletter.
6. Processing by contract data processors and transfer of your data to third countries or international organisations
For the processing and use of your data for the purposes stated in this privacy policy, we make use of external contract data processors to whom we must make your data available so that they can provide us with their services, such as in connection with the maintenance and administration of your data, and so that we can offer you our services. We will always ensure secure and legally compliant data processing by such processor through contractual agreements before such data is transferred to such processor and, if the processor is located outside the European Economic Area, we will ensure adequate protection of your data in that country. In principle, however, we do not intend to pass on data to recipients in third countries or international organisations.
7. Use of Cookies
