Furthermore, you may also at any time object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of direct marketing or profiling linked to such direct marketing.

9. In the context of which processing activities are my personal data processed?

9.1 Processing activity – visiting of our website
Insofar as you use our website solely for informational purposes, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise transmit information to us, we only collect the personal data that your personal browser transmits to our server. This data is technically necessary so that the website can be displayed to you. Furthermore, this data is technically necessary to ensure the stability and security of our website. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in this case is Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR; the legitimate interest in this case is the provision and optimal presentation of this website as well as the protection of this against external attacks and their traceability. We delete this personal data after the end of the usage process, unless we need it for purposes of abuse detection and abuse traceability; in such a case, we retain this data for up to a maximum of 30 days.
When visiting our website, the following personal data may thus be processed, which is automatically transmitted by your browser to our servers and stored there in the form of so-called “log files”:

• IP address of the terminal device used to access the website

• Date, time and duration of the request

• Country of origin of the request

• Content of the request (specific page / file)

• Browser and installed add-ons (e.g. Flash Player)

• Operating system and interface

• Language and version of the browser software

• Amount of data transferred in each case

• Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)

We can only provide some of the services offered on our website if we are able to contact you. In this respect, the possibility of using these services depends on you providing us with certain personal (contact) data. We collect, use and process this personal data only to the extent necessary to provide you with the respective service. If you contact us by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data you provide in each case (your e-mail address and other information you provide voluntarily, such as your name/telephone number) will be stored by us in order to process your request and, if necessary, answer your questions.

Here, the legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 I 1 lit. f GDPR; the legitimate interest is to answer your request. After a final response to your request, we delete your request and the information on the processing with a period of three years after the end of the respective calendar year.

9.2 Processing activity – One.com

Our website is managed by One.com Group AB, Reg.no. 559205-2400, Malmö, Sweden.

Thus, your personal data collected on this website is stored on the servers of this service provider. The data may be, for example, your IP address, meta and communication data or data from a contact form.
The legal basis for the use of One.com Group AB as a hosting provider of our website is, according to Art. 6 I 1 lit. b GDPR, the fulfillment of the contract with our customers and potentially interested parties.

9.3 Processing activity – Cookie Information 
On our website we use the Consent Platform from Cookie Information. This is a consent management tool based on JavaScript. With the help of this tool, we can give the visitor of our website both an overview of the essential software solutions used and the possibility to decide on the use of any other software solutions that require prior consent. Furthermore, the platform offers the visitor the possibility to withdraw any given consent at any time without giving reasons and thus to prevent the future processing of personal data by the respective software solution. Furthermore, with the help of the platform, we can meet the requirement resulting from the GDPR for consent management, which provides, among other things, the possibility to prove that consents have been given or not.

In the context of the use of Cookie Information, the following data may be processed, among other things:

• Consent data

• Consent -ID

• Consent status (Opt-in, Opt-out)

• Consent timestamp

• Language of the consent banner

• Version of the banner template

• Device data (http Agent, http Referrer)

The use of Cookie Information and the associated processing of personal data serves to fulfill legal obligations within the meaning of Art. 6 I 1 lit. c GDPR. 

Deletion of your personal data in connection with the use of Cookie Information will take place as soon as it is no longer required to fulfill the purpose. In case of withdrawal of consent, we retain the information regarding the withdrawal for three years. The retention results on the one hand from the accountability according to Art. 5 II GDPR. 

9.4 Process activity – Special Fonts 

9.4.1 Google Fonts

On our website, we use fonts from Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. These fonts are grouped together by Google under the name Google Fonts. By using Google Fonts, no cookies are set on your terminal device. The fonts are loaded and integrated via the corresponding application programming interfaces (APIs for short) from Google (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). The request to load and integrate the Google Fonts takes place shortly after your visit to our website. The request transmits personal data such as your IP address or the version of your browser to the Google servers and requests the corresponding cascading style sheets (CSS files) and font files from Google. Style sheets are files that are used to change the design of a website, such as the font or font size. A font file contains any information about how the font is displayed. Requests for CSS files are stored by Google for one day and requests for font files are stored for one year. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of the use of Google Fonts is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 I 1 lit. a GDPR.

Due to Google’s localization, the transfer of your personal data to Google may involve a third country transfer, i.e. a transfer of personal data to a destination that is neither in the European Union nor in the European Economic Area, in this case especially to the USA. The processing of your personal data outside the EU/EEA will be based on your consent according to Art. 49 I lit. a GDPR. In the USA no guarantees for an adequate data protection level are in place. As a result, the processing of personal data is affected by additional risks to the rights and freedoms of data subjects. Rights of data subjects might, in the worst case, not be able to be exercised. Information on your right of withdrawal can be found under point 2.9 “Right of withdrawal (Art. 7 GDPR)” in this privacy policy.

Your personal data will not be stored by us as the controller.
Further information regarding processing by Google can be found in the privacy policy.

When the information stored in the cookies about your visit and use of our website is transferred to Google’s servers, it may be transferred to a third country (e.g. to the USA) due to its localization. However, due to the activated anonymization function, your IP address will be shortened within the European Union or the European Economic Area even before it is transferred to Google. Furthermore, the IP address transmitted by your browser will not be merged with other Google data.

On behalf of the provider of this website, Google will use the information received to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports regarding the website activities and to provide further services to the website provider in connection with the use of the website and the internet.

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of the use of Google Analytics is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 I 1 lit. a GDPR. Due to Google’s localization, the transfer of your personal data to Google may involve a third country transfer, i.e. a transfer of personal data to a destination that is neither in the European Union nor in the European Economic Area, in this case especially to the USA. The processing of your personal data outside the EU/EEA will be based on your consent according to Art. 49 I lit. a GDPR. In the USA no guarantees for an adequate data protection level are in place. As a result, the processing of personal data is affected by additional risks to the rights and freedoms of data subjects.

Within social networks, we, as the provider of the website, use the offers of online platforms to inform active users about information offers and services from Nextagenda and, if interested, to communicate directly via the platforms.

As soon as you access the respective Nextagenda profiles on the corresponding social network in your network, the terms and conditions and data processing guidelines of the respective providers apply.

We have no influence on the data collection and its further use by the social networks. Thus, we only know that your data will be processed for market research and advertising purposes and that usage profiles will be created from your usage behavior and the resulting interests. Furthermore, advertising can also be placed to this effect on the basis of supposed interests. For this purpose, cookies are usually stored on your end device.
We therefore expressly draw your attention to the fact that the personal data of users (e.g. the IP address) is stored by the providers of the networks in accordance with their data usage guidelines and used for business purposes. We would also like to point out that your data may be processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area.

We process the data of users Nextagenda´s presences on the corresponding social networks only insofar as they contact and communicate with us via comments or direct messages. You can assert your rights as a data subject both against us (see also point 2 “What are my rights as a data subject?”) and against the provider of the social network. You can find information on the processing of your personal data by the individual social network providers as well as the options for objecting to this under point “9.7.3 Possibilities of objection in social networks” of this Privacy Policy.

The processing of users’ personal data is based on our legitimate interests in effective information of users and communication with users in accordance with Art. 6 I 1 lit. f GDPR. If you are asked by the respective providers to give your consent to data processing (i.e. declare your consent, e.g. by ticking a check box or confirming a button), the legal basis for processing is Art. 6 I 1 lit. a GDPR, i.e. your consent.

9.6.1 Possibilities of objection in social networks

For a detailed presentation of the respective processing and the possibilities of objection (opt-out), we refer to the following linked information of the providers.

Also in the case of access requests and the assertion of further rights of data subjects, we would like to point out that these can most effectively be asserted with the providers. Only the providers have access to the personal data of the users and can directly take appropriate measures and provide information. Should you nevertheless require assistance, you can contact us.

9.7 Processing activity – Targeting und Advertisement

9.7.1 Google Adwords

On our website we use the service Google Adwords from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter: Google). This service enables us to draw attention to our appealing offers on external websites by means of advertising material (so-called Google Ads). These advertising materials are delivered by Google via so-called “Ad Servers”. Ad server cookies are used for this purpose. For further information on the topic of cookies, please go to “7. cookies”. Ad server cookies enable the evaluation of performance parameters (e.g. ad impressions, clicks or conversions). In this way we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. If you come to our website via an ad from Google, Google Adwords stores a cookie on your end device. This cookie stores analysis values (unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression, opt-out information (marking that the user no longer wants to be addressed)). The cookies set by Google Adwords lose their validity after 30 days. These cookies are not intended to identify you personally. Rather, they enable Google Adwords to recognize your internet browser. If you visit certain pages on the website of an Adwords client, Google and the client will recognize that you have been redirected to the client’s page via a clicked advertisement. Google provides us as an Adwords customer with a statistical analysis. This analysis enables us to measure the effectiveness of our advertising measures. We do not receive any further data beyond this.

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of the use of Google Adwords is your consent according to Art. 6 I 1 lit. a GDPR. Due to Google’s localization, the transfer of your personal data to Google may involve a third country transfer, i.e. a transfer of personal data to a destination that is neither in the European Union nor in the European Economic Area, in this case especially to the USA. The processing of your personal data outside the EU/EEA will be based on your consent according to Art. 49 I lit. a GDPR. In the USA no guarantees for an adequate data protection level are in place.

Rights of data subjects might, in the worst case, not be able to be exercised. Information on your right of withdrawal can be found under point 2.8 “Right of withdrawal (Art. 7 GDPR)” in this privacy policy.

On our websites we have integrated YouTube videos. These are stored at www.youtube.com, but can be played directly from our website. YouTube is a platform of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter: Google).

However, when you play videos, data is transferred to YouTube. First, YouTube is notified that you have visited the appropriate subpage of our website where the video is embedded. In addition, other data may be transferred to YouTube that we are not aware of. We also have no influence on the data transfer. If you are registered on YouTube, the transferred data is directly associated with your account. YouTube stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purpose of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of the website. Such an evaluation can be carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) for the purpose of providing need-based advertising. You have the right to object to the creation of usage profiles by YouTube in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR, which you must assert directly with YouTube.
Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing can be found in the YouTube privacy policy.
