Privacy Policy: Information We Collect

You only need to provide your email address or postal address to register for the newsletter. If you also provide us with your first names, this enables us to personalize our email. However, it is not strictly necessary to provide the first names to register for a trial account or newsletter.

We only send emails and other electronic notifications with advertising material (referred to hereinafter as the “newsletter”) with the consent of the recipients or legal permission.

Registration for our newsletter is completed as part of a double opt-in process. This means you will receive an email after registering in which you will be asked to confirm your registration. This confirmation is required so that nobody can register with email addresses that do not belong to them.

The newsletter registrations are recorded to be able to verify the registration process in accordance with legal requirements. This includes storing the time of registration and confirmation and the IP address.

You can withdraw your consent to us storing and using your data at any time. In the case of your newsletter subscription you can simply use the “unsubscribe” link contained in every newsletter email.

Privacy Policy: Our Use Of Your Information

To receive the newsletter, you will need to submit information. This will allow us to communicate with you and fulfill newsletter subscriptions.

We use analytic data to analyze and learn about how the sites are accessed and used, evaluate, and improve our Services (including by developing new products and services and managing our communications). Additionally, we will monitor and measure the effectiveness of our advertising. We usually do this based on anonymous, pseudonymized or aggregated information which does not focus on you individually.
