Privacy Policy

We are very pleased about your interest in our company. Data protection is of particular importance for the management of Sabine Münsterer. The use of the Internet pages of Sabine Münsterer is possible without any indication of personal data. However, if a data subject wants to use special services provided by our company via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Sabine Münsterer. By means of this privacy policy, our company aims to inform the general public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights by means of this privacy policy.

Sabine Münsterer has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means, e.g., by telephone.

Zeppelinstraße 2
84544 Aschau am Inn

3. Cookies

The Internet pages of Sabine Münsterer use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.
Through the use of cookies, Sabine Münsterer can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting. The data subject can, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding adjustment of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs.

4. Collection of general data and information

The website of Sabine Münsterer collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information are stored in the server log files and may include (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using these general data and information, Sabine Münsterer does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore, Sabine Münsterer analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

5. Subscription to our newsletters

On the website of Sabine Münsterer, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our company's newsletter. The input mask used for this purpose determines what personal data are transmitted, as well as when the newsletter is ordered from the controller.
Sabine Münsterer informs its customers and business partners regularly by means of a newsletter about enterprise offers. The enterprise's newsletter may only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid email address and (2) the data subject registers for the newsletter shipping. A confirmation email will be sent to the email address registered by a data subject for the first time for newsletter shipping, for legal reasons, in the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation email is used to prove whether the owner of the email address as the data subject is authorized to receive the newsletter.

6. Newsletter-Tracking

The newsletter of Sabine Münsterer contains so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in such emails, which are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This allows a statistical analysis of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, Sabine Münsterer may see if and when an email was opened by a data subject, and which links in the email were called up by data subjects.

7. Contact possibility via the website

The website of Sabine Münsterer contains information that enables a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (email address). If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the data controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.

8. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

The data controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject to.
If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance with legal requirements.

9. Rights of the data subject

a) Right of confirmation: Each data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller the confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed.

b) Right of access: Each data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller free information about his or her personal data stored at any time and a copy of this information.

c) Right to rectification: Each data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, the data subject shall have the right to have incomplete personal data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.

d) Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten): Each data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, and the controller shall have the obligation to erase personal data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies:
The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.

10. Data Protection in Applications and the Application Process

The controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application procedure. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents by electronic means, for example by email or via a web form on the website, to the controller. If the controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the submitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal requirements. If the controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after the notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller oppose such deletion. Another legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a burden of proof in a procedure under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

11. Privacy Policy on the Use and Application of Facebook

The controller has integrated components of the company Facebook on this website. Facebook is a social network. A social network is a place on the Internet, an online community, which usually allows users to communicate with each other and interact in a virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for exchanging opinions and experiences or enable the Internet community to provide personal or business-related information. Facebook allows users of the social network to create private profiles, upload photos, and network via friend requests.
The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. If a person lives outside the USA or Canada, the controller responsible for processing is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. Each time one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-in) has been integrated, is called up, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Facebook component to download a display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook. A complete overview of all Facebook plug-ins can be accessed at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE. As part of this technical process, Facebook receives information about which specific subpage of our website was visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognizes with each call to our website by the data subject—and for the entire duration of their stay on our website—which specific subpage of our website was visited by the data subject. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned by Facebook to the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, such as the "Like" button, or if the data subject submits a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the personal Facebook user account of the data subject and stores these personal data.
Facebook always receives information via the Facebook component that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time as calling up our website; this takes place regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If such a transmission of this information to Facebook is not desired by the data subject, it can be prevented by logging out of their Facebook account before accessing our website. The data policy published by Facebook, which is available at https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information about the collection, processing, and use of personal data by Facebook. In addition, it explains which setting options Facebook offers to protect the privacy of the data subject. Furthermore, different applications are available that make it possible to suppress data transmission to Facebook. Such applications can be used by the data subject to suppress data transmission to Facebook.

12. Privacy Policy on the Use and Application of Google AdSense

The controller has integrated Google AdSense on this website. Google AdSense is an online service that allows the placement of advertising on third-party sites. Google AdSense is based on an algorithm that selects the ads displayed on third-party sites to match the content of the respective third-party site. Google AdSense allows interest-based targeting of Internet users, which is implemented by generating individual user profiles.
The operating company of the Google AdSense component is Alphabet Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The purpose of the Google AdSense component is to integrate advertisements on our website. Google AdSense sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Alphabet Inc. is enabled to analyze the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Google AdSense component has been integrated, is called up, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Google AdSense component to transmit data to Alphabet Inc. for the purpose of online advertising and commission billing. As part of this technical process, Alphabet Inc. gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which serves, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission statements.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as already described above, at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Alphabet Inc. from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, a cookie already set by Alphabet Inc. can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.
Google AdSense also uses so-called counting pixels. A counting pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in Internet pages to enable a log file recording and a log file analysis, which allows a statistical analysis to be carried out. Using the embedded counting pixel, Alphabet Inc. can recognize whether and when an Internet page was opened by a data subject and which links were clicked on by the data subject. Counting pixels are used, among other things, to evaluate the visitor flow of an Internet page.
Via Google AdSense, personal data and information—which also includes the IP address and is necessary for the collection and billing of the displayed advertisements—are transmitted to Alphabet Inc. in the United States of America. These personal data are stored and processed in the United States of America. Alphabet Inc. may disclose the personal data collected through this technical process to third parties.
Google AdSense is further explained at https://www.google.de/intl/de/adsense/start/.

13. Privacy Policy on the Use and Application of Google Analytics (with Anonymization Function)

The controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analytics service collects data, among other things, about the website from which a data subject has come (the so-called referrer), which subpages of the website were accessed, or how often and for what duration a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is mainly used to optimize a website and for cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising.
The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The controller uses the "_gat._anonymizeIp" add-on for web analytics via Google Analytics. By means of this add-on, the IP address of the Internet connection of the data subject is truncated and anonymized by Google if access to our Internet pages is made from a member state of the European Union or from another contracting state to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the flow of visitors to our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us that show the activities on our Internet pages, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.
Google Analytics sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, is called up, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which serves, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission statements.
By means of the cookie, personal information is stored, such as the access time, the location from which access was made, and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject. Each time our Internet pages are visited, these personal data, including the IP address of the Internet connection used by the data subject, are transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may disclose these personal data collected through this technical process to third parties.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as already described above, at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

14. Data Protection Provisions for the Use of Google Remarketing

The controller has integrated Google Remarketing services on this website. Google Remarketing is a function of Google AdWords that allows a company to display advertisements to internet users who have previously visited the company's website. The integration of Google Remarketing allows a company to create user-related advertising and thus display interest-relevant advertisements to the internet user.
The operating company for Google Remarketing services is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The purpose of Google Remarketing is the display of interest-relevant advertising. Google Remarketing enables us to display advertisements through the Google advertising network or to have them displayed on other websites that are tailored to the individual needs and interests of internet users. Google Remarketing sets a cookie on the information technology system of the affected person. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google can recognize the visitor of our website when they subsequently visit websites that are also members of the Google advertising network. With each call-up to a website on which the Google Remarketing service has been integrated, the internet browser of the affected person automatically identifies itself with Google. As part of this technical process, Google obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address or the surfing behavior of the user, which Google uses, among other things, to display interest-relevant advertising.
Using the cookie, personal information, for example, the websites visited by the affected person, is stored. Each time our websites are visited, personal data, including the IP address of the internet access used by the affected person, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may transfer these personal data collected through the technical process to third parties.
The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as described above, at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the affected person. Additionally, cookies already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.
Furthermore, the affected person has the possibility to object to interest-based advertising by Google. To do this, the affected person must access the link www.google.de/settings/ads from each of the internet browsers they use and make the desired settings there.
Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

15. Data Protection Provisions for the Use of Google AdWords

The controller has integrated Google AdWords on this website. Google AdWords is an internet advertising service that allows advertisers to place ads in Google’s search engine results and the Google advertising network. Google AdWords allows an advertiser to predefine specific keywords with the help of which an advertisement on Google’s search results will only then be displayed when the user utilizes the search engine to retrieve a keyword-relevant search result. In the Google advertising network, the ads are distributed on relevant web pages using an automatic algorithm, considering the predefined keywords.
The operating company for Google AdWords services is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The purpose of Google AdWords is the promotion of our website by displaying interest-relevant advertising on the websites of third-party companies and in the search engine results of the Google search engine and an insertion of third-party advertising on our website. If a data subject reaches our website via a Google advertisement, a conversion cookie is filed on the information technology system of the data subject by Google. What cookies are has already been explained above. A conversion cookie loses its validity after 30 days and is not used to identify the data subject. If the cookie has not yet expired, the conversion cookie is used to check whether certain sub-pages, e.g., the shopping cart from an online shop system, were called up on our website. Through the conversion cookie, both Google and the controller can track whether a person who reached an AdWords ad on our website generated sales, that is, completed or canceled a purchase.
The data and information collected through the use of the conversion cookie are used by Google to create visit statistics for our website. These visit statistics are used by us to determine the total number of users who have been sent to us through AdWords ads to ascertain the success or failure of each AdWords ad and to optimize our AdWords ads in the future. Neither our company nor other Google AdWords advertisers receive information from Google that could identify the data subject.
By using the conversion cookie, personal information, for example, the websites visited by the data subject, is stored. Each time we visit our websites, personal data, including the IP address of the internet access used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may transfer these personal data collected through the technical process to third parties.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as described above, at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. Additionally, a cookie set by Google AdWords can be deleted at any time via the internet browser or other software programs.
Furthermore, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to interest-based advertising by Google. To do so, the data subject must access from each of the browsers in use the link www.google.de/settings/ads and set the desired settings.
Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google can be retrieved under https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

16. Data Protection Provisions for the Use of Twitter

The controller has integrated components of Twitter on this website. Twitter is a multilingual, publicly accessible microblogging service on which users may publish and disseminate tweets, which are short messages limited to 140 characters. These short messages are available to anyone, including those not logged on to Twitter. The tweets are also displayed to the followers of the respective user. Followers are other Twitter users who follow a user's tweets. Furthermore, Twitter allows you to address a broad audience via hashtags, links, or retweets.
The operating company for Twitter is Twitter, Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA.
Through each call-up to one of the individual pages of this internet site, which is operated by the controller and on which a Twitter component (Twitter button) was integrated, the internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download a display of the corresponding Twitter component of Twitter. Further information about the Twitter buttons is available at https://about.twitter.com/de/resources/buttons. During the course of this technical procedure, Twitter gains knowledge of what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the data subject. The purpose of the integration of the Twitter component is a retransmission of the contents of this website to allow our users to introduce this web page to the digital world and increase our visitor numbers.
If the data subject is logged in at the same time on Twitter, Twitter detects with every call-up to our website by the data subject—and for the entire duration of their stay on our internet site—which specific sub-page of our internet page was visited by the data subject. This information is collected through the Twitter component and associated with the respective Twitter account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Twitter buttons integrated on our website, then Twitter assigns this information to the personal Twitter user account of the data subject and stores the personal data.
Twitter receives information via the Twitter component that the data subject has visited our website, provided that the data subject is logged in on Twitter at the time of the call-up to our website. This occurs regardless of whether the person clicks on the Twitter component or not. If such a transmission of information to Twitter is not desirable for the data subject, then they may prevent this by logging off from their Twitter account before a call-up to our website is made.
The applicable data protection provisions of Twitter are available at https://twitter.com/privacy?lang=en.

17. Data Protection Provisions for the Use of YouTube

The controller has integrated components of YouTube on this website. YouTube is an internet video portal that enables video publishers to set video clips and other users to view, rate, and comment on them for free. YouTube allows the publication of all kinds of videos, so you can access both complete films and TV shows, as well as music videos, trailers, and user-made videos via the internet portal.
The operating company of YouTube is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
Through each call-up to one of the individual pages of this internet site, which is operated by the controller and on which a YouTube component (YouTube video) was integrated, the internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download a display of the corresponding YouTube component. More information about YouTube can be obtained under https://www.youtube.com/yt/about/en/. During the course of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google gain knowledge of what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged in on YouTube, YouTube recognizes with each call-up to a sub-page that contains a YouTube video, which specific sub-page of our internet site was visited by the data subject. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to the

18. Payment Method: Privacy Policy for PayPal as a Payment Method

The controller has integrated PayPal components on this website. PayPal is an online payment service provider. Payments are processed through PayPal accounts, which represent virtual private or business accounts. PayPal also offers the option of processing virtual payments via credit cards if a user does not have a PayPal account. A PayPal account is managed via an email address, which means there are no traditional account numbers. PayPal allows online payments to be made to third parties or to receive payments. PayPal also takes on trustee functions and offers buyer protection services.
The European operating company of PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, 2449 Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
If the data subject selects "PayPal" as the payment option during the order process in our online shop, data of the data subject will be automatically transmitted to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data subject consents to the transmission of personal data required for payment processing. The personal data transmitted to PayPal usually includes first name, last name, address, email address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number, or other data necessary for payment processing. Personal data related to the respective order are also required to process the purchase contract.
The transmission of data aims to process payments and prevent fraud. The controller will transfer personal data to PayPal, especially if there is a legitimate interest for the transmission. The personal data exchanged between PayPal and the controller may be transmitted by PayPal to credit agencies. This transmission is intended for identity and creditworthiness checks.
PayPal may disclose personal data to affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors, as far as this is necessary to fulfill the contractual obligations or for data processing on behalf.
The data subject has the possibility to revoke the consent to the handling of personal data at any time from PayPal. A revocation does not affect personal data that must be processed, used, or transmitted for (contractual) payment processing.
The applicable privacy policy of PayPal can be accessed at PayPal Privacy Policy.

19. Legal Basis for Processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and their name, age, health insurance data, or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital, or other third parties. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

20. Legitimate Interests in Processing by the Controller or a Third Party

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business for the well-being of all our employees and shareholders.

21. Period for which the Personal Data Will Be Stored

The criterion used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data are routinely deleted, as long as they are no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

22. Statutory or Contractual Requirements to Provide Personal Data; Necessity for the Contract; Obligation of the Data Subject to

Provide Personal Data; Possible Consequences of Failure to Provide Such Data
We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g., information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with them. The non-provision of personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact any employee. The employee clarifies to the data subject whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, if there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

23. Existence of Automated Decision-Making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
