Data privacy
In the following, we would like to inform you about our data protection declaration. Here you will find information about the collection and use of personal data when using our website. In doing so, we observe the data protection law applicable in Germany. You can call up this declaration at any time on our site.

We expressly point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) has security gaps and cannot be wholly protected from access by third parties.

The use of the contact data in our imprint for commercial advertising is expressly not desired unless we have given our prior written consent or a business relationship already exists. The provider and all persons named on this website at this moment object to any commercial use and disclosure of their data.

Freedom of choice
Your data is yours. We try not to make any assumptions about your privacy preferences and try to design our services so that you can decide whether or not you want to share your personal information with us.

Cookies & Tracking
In general, you can visit the SPACE AFFAIRS websites without telling us whom you are or revealing any information about yourself. However, to provide you with specific services or offers, we often need to collect certain personal information such as your name and e-mail address.

We may also (using cookies) collect anonymous information about how you used our websites before such recording. This information is helpful for us to improve our websites or our marketing. All SPACE AFFAIRS Web sites that are open to our customers contain information about the use of cookies. For certain countries, there is also an online procedure for accepting or rejecting cookies. For more information about the use of cookies, see the local cookie information published for your country. SPACE AFFAIRS does not track its customers over time and across third-party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. However, some third-party websites keep track of your browsing activities when they provide you with content that allows them to customise what they present to you.

Third parties who have content on our pages, such as a social function, may set cookies on your browser or receive information that a web browser has visited a particular page from a particular IP address. Third parties may not receive any other personal information from our websites unless you provide it directly to them.

Personal Information
You can visit our website without providing any personal data. As far as personal data (such as name, address or e-mail address) is collected on our pages, this is done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.

If a contractual relationship between you and us is to be established, developed or changed, or if you make an inquiry to us, we collect and use personal data from you to the extent necessary for these purposes (inventory data). We receive process and use personal data to the extent required to enable you to use the website (usage data). All personal data will only be stored for as long as necessary for the stated purpose (processing of your inquiry or processing of a contract). Tax and commercial retention periods are taken into account here.

By order of the competent authorities, we may provide information about this data (inventory data) in individual cases, insofar as this is necessary for criminal prosecution, to avert danger, to fulfil the legal tasks of the constitutional protection authorities or the military counter-intelligence service or to enforce intellectual property rights.

Privacy policy for the newsletter function
By voluntarily registering your e-mail address in our newsletter and confirming it using the double opt-in procedure, you declare your consent to receive our e-mail newsletter. You can object to this use of your e-mail address at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic rates. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time. Each e-mail contains a "unsubscribe" link. To receive the newsletter, it is sufficient to provide an e-mail address. Additional voluntary information is only used to personalise the newsletter.

The newsletter is sent by the mail service provider "MailChimp", a newsletter delivery platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.

The dispatch service provider is used by our legitimate interests according to Art. 6 Para. 1 letter f DSGVO and an order processing contract according to Art. 28 Para. 3 S. 1 DSGVO. The shipping service provider can use the recipient's data in a pseudonymous form, i.e. without assignment to a user, to optimise or improve its services, e.g. to technically tune the dispatch and presentation of the newsletter or for statistical purposes. However, the shipping service does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write them down itself or to pass the data on to third parties.
