The protection of your personal data is of particular concern to me. We therefore process your data exclusively on the basis of the legal provisions (DSGVO, TMG). In this data protection information, I inform you about the most important aspects of data processing within the framework of our website.

Contact with me

If you contact me using the form on the website or by e-mail, the data you provide will be stored by us for six months for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions.

Data deletion and storage

Your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies. Longer storage may take place if a legal retention period, e.g. from the German Fiscal Code (Abgabenordnung) or the German Commercial Code (HGB), prevents deletion. Data will not be passed on to third parties.

Cookies

My website uses so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your end device with the help of the browser. They do not cause any damage.

We use cookies to make our website user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them. They enable us to recognise your browser on your next visit.

If you do not wish this, you can set up your browser so that it informs you about the setting of cookies and you only allow this in individual cases.

If you deactivate cookies, the functionality of our website may be limited.

Personal data, newsletter, social media

Personal data is data that allows conclusions to be drawn about your identity. We only collect personal data if you voluntarily disclose it to us. Depending on your use of our site, this can be the following data:

If you contact us by e-mail, social media, telephone or contact form, the data you provide may be stored in a so-called customer relation management system (“CRM system”) for the purpose of processing the enquiry in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. b) DSGVO. Provided that no “public interest” or “legitimate interest” opposes this in individual cases in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (e) and (f), we will delete your data after two years.

In order to avoid spam comments, we ask for and store an email address, an IP address and a name in the comment form. When choosing a user name and email address, we recommend checking whether your entry allows third parties to infer your identity. This data is stored until you request us to delete the comment.

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will store your e-mail address for this purpose. Optionally, you can enter your name, postcode and areas of interest. This data is stored in a CRM system for the duration of the newsletter subscription and deleted as soon as you unsubscribe. Excluded from this are email addresses of publicly known persons who are publicly accessible. We store these even after unsubscription solely for the purpose of documenting the withdrawal of consent. You can unsubscribe at any time by sending an e-mail to daniel.freund[at]europarl.europa.eu. You will then receive a confirmation email about the change.

If you register for one of our events via a registration form or by e-mail, the data you provide there, such as name, e-mail address and other voluntary data such as the organisation you work for or your postcode, will be transmitted to us and stored until the event is completed. This may also include communication after the actual event, e.g. the sending of follow-up materials or information about follow-up events. If you gave your consent when registering for the event that we may also contact you after the event, we will enter you manually in our newsletter. The statements in the previous paragraph then apply to this.
