We process information your have supplied in order to give you targeted information, such as

  • personal communication in the newsletter (title, name)
  • communication of relevant information specially for you segmented by language, state or city, gender, interests.

Moreover, we measure the performance of the newsletter, by processing whether the newsletter was opened (yes/no) (“opening rate”), information relating to which parts of the newsletter were clicked on (“click behaviour) as well as information about technical delivery of the newsletter (“bounces”, e.g. non-deliverability due to missing email address). This data is generated by the system.

RECHTSGRUNDLAGE

Your email address is based on the consent you have given in accordance with § 107 Telecommunications Act and Art. 6 Para. 1 letter a GDPR. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. To withdraw your consent, please click on the unsubscribe link in the newsletter in question or contact Bike Citizens (for legal remedies and contact data, see below). We base processing the information you have supplied voluntarily and collection of data for measurement of performance on the legitimate interests of Bike Citizens (Marketing purposes; Art. 6 Para. 1 letter f GDPR).

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter, your consent declaration will continue to be stored based on legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 letter f GDPR). The legitimate interests of Bike Citizens lie in the required documentation of the consent you have given for purposes of proof.

You give Bike Citizens your data voluntarily, without a statutory or contractual obligation. However, it is necessary to process your email address, in order to carry out despatch of the relevant newsletter. If the email address is not supplied, this means that Bike Citizens cannot send you the newsletter. If the “voluntary information” is not given, this means that we cannot give you targeted information; however, we will naturally continue to send you the newsletter.

SPEICHERUNG / LÖSCHUNG

Your subscription cancellation from the newsletter will be noted automatically in the newsletter database. This note means that you will no longer receive newsletters from the time you unsubscribe. Bike Citizens will delete your personal data immediately, unless other legal obligations require further storage and we do not need the data in individual cases for the defense or enforcement of legal claims.

Data for performance measurement will be saved for a period of 3 months and then anonymised.
