Thank you for visiting our website and for your interest in our events and our company. Laufszene Events GmbH places great importance on protecting your personal data. When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data are data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains which data we collect and what we use them for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens. These data protection notices apply to the internet presence of Laufszene Events GmbH, which can be accessed and printed at any time at: https://dresden-half.com//privacy-policy/

Note on the Controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Laufszene Events GmbH
Magdeburger Str. 2 // Heinz-Steyer-Stadion
01067 Dresden
Phone: +49 351 207815-0 
Email: datenschutz@laufszene-events.com

The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.). We process your personal data only if permitted by law or if you have expressly consented to this.

2. Data Collection on our Website
Data Security

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content—such as registrations or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator—this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser’s address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar. If SSL/TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.

Cookies
This website uses cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies help make our offering more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called session cookies. These are automatically deleted after you leave our site. In addition, we also use temporary cookies to optimize user-friendliness, which are stored on your terminal device for a certain fixed period of time. If you visit our site again to use our services, it is automatically recognized that you have already been with us and which entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again.

You can set your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, to accept cookies for certain cases or generally exclude them, as well as to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Cookies that are required for the proper functioning of the website (e.g., shopping cart function) are stored in accordance with Art. 6 (1) s. 1 letter f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. For all other cookies, it applies that you have given your consent to this within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) letter a GDPR via our opt-in cookie banner. These cookies are treated separately in this privacy policy.

Server Log Files
In the case of merely informational use of our website we only collect data that your browser transmits to our server (in so-called »server log files«). Our website collects a series of general data and information with each call of a page by you or an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the server log files. Collected can be:

• IP address
• Browser and operating system
• Referrer URL
• Host name of the accessing computer
• Time of the server request

These data are not merged with other data sources. 

Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) s. 1 letter f GDPR based on our legitimate interest in:

• ensuring a smooth connection to the website,
• improving the stability and functionality of our website, and
• evaluating system security and stability.

There is no disclosure or other use of the data.

Contacting Us
When you contact us (e.g., via contact form or email), personal data are collected. 

These data are stored and used exclusively for the purpose of answering your request or for contacting you and the associated technical administration. The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request in accordance with Art. 6 (1) letter f GDPR. If your contact aims at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Art. 6 (1) letter b GDPR.

Your data will be deleted after your inquiry has been finally processed; this is the case when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified and no legal retention obligations oppose deletion.

Newsletter
If you sign up for our email newsletter, we will regularly send you information about our events. The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your email address. Providing any additional data is voluntary and will be used to address you personally.

We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to send the newsletter. This means that we will only send you an email newsletter once you have expressly confirmed that you consent to receiving newsletters. We will then send you a confirmation email asking you to confirm that you wish to receive newsletters in the future by clicking on a corresponding link. By activating the confirmation link, you give us your consent to use your personal data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) letter a GDPR. When you register for the newsletter, we store the IP address assigned by your internet service provider as well as the date and time of registration in order to be able to trace a possible misuse of your email address at a later time.

The data collected by us when you register for the newsletter will be used exclusively for the purpose of addressing you in advertising via the newsletter. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the link provided in the newsletter or by sending a corresponding message to the controller named at the beginning. After unsubscribing, your email address will be immediately deleted from our newsletter distribution list, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use data beyond this scope that is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this policy.

3. YouTube Plugin
Our website uses plugins from YouTube, a site operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited.

If you are logged in to your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Further information on the handling of user data can be found in YouTube’s privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy 

4. Google Analytics
Our website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses also cookies to analyse your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

If IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will, however, be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide further services related to website and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software; however, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google as well as the processing of these data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de 

5. Duration of Storage of Personal Data
We process and store your personal data only for the period of time required to achieve the purpose of storage or if this has been provided for by legal provisions (e.g., commercial and tax retention periods). If the storage purpose ceases to apply or if a prescribed storage period expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions. The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of the period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer required for contract fulfillment or contract initiation.

6. Transmission of Personal Data to Third Parties
We do not transfer your personal data to third parties unless a statutory permission exists. We will only pass on your personal data to third parties: if you have given your express consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 (1) s. 1 letter a GDPR, if we are legally obliged to disclose data (information to law enforcement authorities and courts; information to public bodies that receive data due to legal provisions, e.g., social insurance carriers, tax authorities, etc.) or if we engage third parties bound by professional secrecy to enforce our claims.

7. Links to Other Websites
Our internet presence contains links to other websites. These data protection notices apply only to our website. Please observe the data protection provisions of the linked pages. 

Despite careful monitoring of content, we accept no liability for the content of external links. The operators of linked sites are solely responsible for their content and for damages resulting from the use or non-use of the information provided. The editorial staff is only responsible for third-party references if it has positive knowledge of them—that is, also of any unlawful or criminal content—and if it is technically possible and reasonable to prevent their use.

8. Objection to Promotional Emails
We hereby object to the use of contact data published within the scope of the legal notice obligation for the transmission of advertising and information materials not expressly requested. The operators of the webpages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam emails.

9. Your Rights as Data Subject
Applicable data protection law grants you comprehensive rights (rights of access and intervention) with respect to the processing of your personal data, about which we inform you below:

(1) Information to be Provided Art. 15 GDPR

You have the right to receive from us at any time, free of charge, information about your personal data processed by us, the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your data have been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period or the criteria used to determine that period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection to processing, a complaint to a supervisory authority, the origin of your data if they were not collected by us from you, the existence of automated decision-making including profiling and, where applicable, meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for you, and your right to be informed about the appropriate safeguards in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR when your data are transferred to third countries.

(2) Right to Rectification Art. 16 GDPR

You have the right to request that incorrect personal data concerning you be corrected. Furthermore, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, considering the purposes of the processing.

(3) Right to Erasure Art. 17 GDPR

You have the right to demand that we delete the personal data concerning you without delay, provided that one of the reasons provided for by law applies. However, this right does not exist in particular if processing is necessary for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

(4) Right to Restriction of Processing Art. 18 GDPR

You have the right to request that we restrict processing if one of the legal requirements is met—as long as the accuracy of your data disputed by you is being verified, if you refuse erasure of your data due to unlawful data processing and instead request restriction of processing, if you need your data for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims after we no longer need these data for the purpose of processing, or if you have objected on grounds relating to your particular situation, as long as it has not yet been determined whether our legitimate grounds override yours.

(5) Right to Notification Pursuant Art. 19 GDPR

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to communicate this rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing to all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed about these recipients.

(6) Right to Data Portability Art. 20 GDPR

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, common, and machine-readable format or to request the transmission to another controller, where technically feasible.

(7) Right to Withdraw Consent Given Pursuant Art. 7(3) GDPR:

You have the right to withdraw consent once given for the processing of data at any time with effect for the future. In the event of withdrawal, we will delete the affected data without delay, provided that further processing cannot be based on a legal basis for processing without consent. The lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of consent until withdrawal is not affected by the withdrawal.

(8) Right to Lodge a Complaint Pursuant Art. 77 GDPR:

If you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR, you have the right—without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy—to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. In such cases, we kindly ask you to contact us in advance so that we can clarify the matter.

(9) Right to Object Art. 21 GDPR
If we process your personal data on the basis of our overriding legitimate interest within the framework of a balancing of interests, you have the right to object to this processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation, with effect for the future.

If you exercise your right to object, we will cease processing the data concerned. Further processing remains reserved if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or if the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

If your personal data are processed by us for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such advertising. You can exercise the objection as described above.

If you exercise your right to object, we will cease processing the data concerned for direct advertising purposes.
