We send out newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications with promotional information (hereinafter "Newsletter") subject to the consent of the recipient or a legal permission.

The registration for our newsletter is handled through a so-called double opt-in procedure, which means you will receive an e-mail after your registration, in which you will be asked to confirm your registration once again. The registrations for the newsletter are recorded in order to prove the accurate registration process according to legal requirements. This includes storing the time of logon and confirmation. Furthermore, changes to the data stored by GetResponse and Mindbox are being recorded.

However, neither GetResponse nor Mindbox use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact them independently or transfer data to third parties except in cases prescribed by GetResponse privacy policy (https://www.getresponse.com/legal/privacy.html) and Mindbox personal data policy (https://mindbox.cloud/documents/policy/).

In order to register for the newsletter, we only need your e-mail address. Further voluntarily provided information about you is only used to personalize the newsletter. You can change your data at any time.

There are cases when we direct the newsletter recipients to the GetResponse or Mindbox websites. For instance, our newsletters contain a link with which the newsletter recipients can access the newsletters online (for example, in the case of display problems in the e-mail program).

You may terminate the receipt of our newsletter at any time, which means you revoke your consent. Therewith your consent to the dispatch of the newsletter via GetResponse and Mindbox as well as the statistical analyses expires at the same time. A separate cancellation of the dispatch via GetResponse or Mindbox or the statistical evaluation is unfortunately not possible. You may withdraw your consent to receive our newsletter at any time by changing the notification settings in your account.
