Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using essential, functional, analysis and marketing cookies is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO (legitimate interest) or, if the user has given consent, Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO (consent).

Transfer to third countries

If your consent has been given, your data may be transferred to the US, particularly through the use of cookies from third-party providers.

According to a ruling handed down by the European Court of Justice (decision of 16 July 2020, case no. C-311/18 (“Schrems II”)), the US does not offer an appropriate level of data protection. In particular, there is a risk that your data may be processed by US government authorities for purposes of surveillance and monitoring, potentially without judicial redress or the right to an effective remedy.
