Ensuring smooth connection establishment of the website,
Ensuring comfortable use of the website,
Statistical evaluation using a pseudonym to optimize our website,
Evaluation of system security and stability as well as
Other administrative purposes.

bb) Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies on the website that collect your data using pseudonyms. Cookies are small text files that a website creates and that are stored in the memory of your browser or device when visiting the website. Pixel tags are small graphic files that are often used together with cookies (cookies and pixel tags hereinafter collectively "cookies").

We use different types of cookies, depending on the storage duration and who sets them on the website:

Session cookies, which only exist for the duration of a browser session and are deleted when you close your browser.
Persistent (permanent) cookies, which are stored on your device, last longer than one visit and help us store information, settings or preferences that you have previously saved.
First-party cookies, which are set and controlled by us as the operator of the website.
Third-party cookies, which are set by another provider on the website. We also use cookies from third parties for the collection of analysis data, advertising and marketing activities.

We also distinguish between technically absolutely necessary cookies, functional cookies and web analysis cookies. Details on the respective cookies (e.g. on the provider, purpose, legal basis and duration of use) can be found in our Consent Management Tool, which you can reach via the cookie banner and also via the "Cookie Settings" button, which is accessible on every page of our website.

Technically necessary cookies are absolutely required to enable you to use the website and the services offered on it. Our legitimate interest in data processing lies in this purpose; legal bases are Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, § 25 para. 2 no. 2 TDDDG. We also use technically absolutely necessary cookies to fulfill legal obligations; legal bases are Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, § 25 para. 2 no. 2 TDDDG. Technically necessary cookies are usually only stored on your device for as long as your browser is active and, unless otherwise stated, deleted after the end of the respective browser session.

We use temporary functional cookies to improve user-friendliness. These cookies enable us to recognize you when you return to our website and to automatically remember your settings and preferences (e.g. your choice of language or region). The legal basis for the use of cookies is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, § 25 para. 1 TDDDTDSG, i.e. your prior consent. You give your consent to the use of these cookies on our website by clicking "Accept All" in our cookie banner or by expressly allowing the service in the settings. If you do not allow these cookies, the website and/or our services offered via the website may not function properly.

We use web analysis cookies to create pseudonymous usage profiles for the purpose of web analysis. These cookies enable us to recognize returning users (device owners), analyze their behavior on the website, optimize the website and measure its reach. We only use these cookies if you give your consent via the cookie banner by clicking "Accept All" or accepting the individual cookies in the settings. The legal basis for data processing is then Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR or § 25 para. 1 TDDDG. We do not combine the data with other personal data and do not use it to address individual users for advertising purposes.

In addition, we use cookies to integrate external content (e.g. maps, videos and social media plugins) into the website that are offered by third parties or that we have published with third parties (e.g. on social media platforms) ("External Content"). Only if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR or § 25 para. 1 TDDDG) by clicking "Accept All" in the cookie banner, by expressly allowing the service in the "Cookie Settings" or by clicking a button and thus activating the external content, the third party receives the information that you have called up the corresponding subpage of our website. In addition, further data is transmitted to the servers of the third party. This applies regardless of whether you have a user account with the third party or are logged in there. If you are logged into your account and use the embedded content, your data will be directly linked to your account. If you do not want your data to be linked to your account, you must log out before visiting our website. The third party can store your data as user profiles and use it for purposes of advertising, market research and/or needs-based design of its offer. Such an evaluation takes place in particular for the provision of personalized advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have a right to object to the creation of these user profiles, which you must assert with the responsible third party. We have no influence on the data transmission and processing by the third party.

Please note that when using cookies, data is sometimes transmitted to third countries outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA) (so-called third countries), especially to the USA. You can find information about this in our Cookie Management Tool. If the level of data protection in these third countries falls behind the level of data protection of the EU, we provide guarantees to protect your data. Further information on this can be found in section 6 of this privacy policy. We only use service providers based in the USA if they are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework ("DPF"). The DPF regulates the exchange of personal data between the European Union and the United States and is intended to ensure that US companies comply with European data protection standards when processing personal data transferred from the EU to the USA (Art. 45 GDPR). You can view the certificates of the service providers here https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/list.

You can change your cookie settings for our website at any time in our Consent Management Tool. You can find the tool in the lower right area of the page. If your device supports this, you can also prevent the use of cookies by setting your web browser so that it does not accept new cookies, alerts you to new cookies or deletes all cookies already received. You can get help on changing the setting in the help function of your web browser or at www.allaboutcookies.org. Please note that the use of some functions of the website is only possible with the use of cookies.

b) Newsletter

If you or your company have registered for our newsletter, we use your e-mail address to inform you or your company regularly by e-mail about legal issues relating to tire cartels, in particular ongoing developments in potential tire cartels and opportunities and offers for the enforcement of damage claims, including litigation financing.

For receiving the newsletter, providing an e-mail address is sufficient. Further information about your person (e.g. your name as contact person of your company) is optional.

The legal basis for processing your personal data is your express consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR). Your consent is logged. The logging of your registration is based on our legitimate interests for the purpose of proving properly obtained consent. Insofar as we commission a service provider with the sending of e-mails, this is done on the basis of our legitimate interests in an efficient and secure shipping system (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR).

‍

Unsubscribing is possible at any time, for example via the link at the end of each e-mail. Alternatively, you can also transmit your unsubscription request to us at any time using the contact details mentioned in section 1 (e.g. by e-mail). In this case, your e-mail address will be deleted from our e-mail distribution list and added to our blocking list. The revocation of your consent only takes effect for the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected by this.

c) Consent

Even if you have given consent to the processing of personal data for other purposes, the lawfulness of this processing is given on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR). A given consent can be revoked at any time using the contact details mentioned under section 1 of this privacy policy (e.g. by e-mail). Please note that the revocation only takes effect for the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected by this.

d) Legitimate interests

Furthermore, we process your data to safeguard legitimate interests of us or third parties, in particular in the following cases:

Answering inquiries outside of a contract or pre-contractual measures;
Assertion of legal claims and defense in legal disputes;
Ensuring our IT security and our IT operation;
Measures for business management and further development of products;
Prevention and clarification of crimes, in particular fraud cases;
Detection and prevention of other abusive use of our website or the services offered via the website.

Our legitimate interest is to optimally market our services and to further develop these and our company. Furthermore, our interest is directed towards a user-friendly and secure presentation as well as optimization of our website. This serves both our business interests and the user's expectations of an optimal user experience. In addition, we have a legitimate interest in protecting our company against impairments and dangers and in enforcing its claims. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

e) Legal obligation

Finally, we are subject to various legal obligations, i.e. statutory requirements. The purposes of processing include, among others, the fulfilment of commercial and tax law retention periods. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR.

4. No obligation to provide personal data

If we ask you to provide personal data, you can of course refuse to do so. However, it may be that we then cannot provide certain functions of the website or cannot answer your inquiries. This applies in particular when the data is required for the offer of a service or when we are legally obligated to collect data. Mandatory or optional information is recognizable as such in the registration form.

5. Recipients of personal data

Within our company, those departments receive access to your data that need this to fulfill our contractual and legal obligations.

The law firm Hausfeld Rechtsanwälte LLP, Walter-Benjamin-Platz 6, 10629 Berlin, Germany ("Hausfeld") supports us in answering legal questions about tire cartels and the enforcement of damage claims. If you have made information in the context of newsletter registration that is linked to you as a natural person, Hausfeld also has access to this data. The transfer takes place to safeguard our legitimate interest in the outsourcing of tasks (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR). Hausfeld processes personal data under its own responsibility.

Furthermore, we pass on your data to the following categories of recipients if this is covered by your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR) or this is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR) or to safeguard legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR):

Third-party providers of cookies (see the information in the Consent Management Tool);
IT service providers, e.g. Software as a Service providers, software service providers, e-mail dispatch service providers;
Service providers for fraud prevention and risk analysis; and/or
Third parties involved in court proceedings, provided they present us with a legal order, a court decision or an equivalent legal provision.

Furthermore, a transfer or transmission of your personal data takes place if legal provisions require this (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR). When transferring personal data, we observe the legal requirements and conclude contracts or agreements with the recipients that serve to protect the data.

6. Data processing in third countries

For the processing of your personal data, we also use service providers that are based in third countries outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA). In these countries, a lower level of data protection may prevail than within the European Union. In the case of data transmission to these countries, we will provide the necessary guarantees to ensure that your data is processed just as securely as within the EEA, e.g. by concluding standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission (SCC) within the meaning of Art. 46 para. 2 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR or by other legally provided measures. You can request a copy of the measures taken by contacting us using the contact details given above.

7. Storage duration and data deletion

Where necessary, we and the service providers we use process and store your personal data for as long as it is necessary for the purposes mentioned in this privacy policy. If we process data based on your consent, we keep this data for as long as the processing of your personal data is required according to your consent.

Log files are generally deleted after the end of the respective browser session, at the latest after 7 days, unless their further storage is exceptionally necessary and lawful. The storage duration of cookies depends on the individual case and is usually between twelve and 24 months. Further information on the storage duration can be found in our Consent Management Tool, which you can also reach via the "Cookie Settings" button, which is accessible on every page of our website.

For contractual relationships, but also for other civil law claims, the storage duration is also based on the statutory limitation periods, which for example according to §§ 195 ff. of the German Civil Code ("BGB") are usually three years, but in certain cases can also be up to thirty years. In addition, we are subject to various retention and documentation obligations, which arise among others from the German Commercial Code ("HGB") and the German Tax Code ("AO"). The periods prescribed there for retention or documentation are 6 years for correspondence in connection with a contract conclusion and 10 years for booking receipts and business letters (§§ 238, 257 para. 1 and 4 HGB, § 147 para. 1 and 3 AO).

8. Rights as data subject

Insofar as you are affected by data processing, you have the right to information (Art. 15 GDPR), the right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR), the right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR), the right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR) and the right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR). With regard to the right to information and the right to erasure, the restrictions according to §§ 34 and 35 BDSG apply. You also have the right to object to data processing (Art. 21 GDPR).

Your rights in detail:

Right to information (Art. 15 GDPR): You can request information about whether and how we process your personal data. You have in particular a right to information about the processing purposes, the categories of personal data, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or will be disclosed, if possible the planned storage duration, or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this duration; the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of your personal data, to a restriction of processing or objection to this processing; the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority; the origin of the data if the personal data was not collected from you, the existence of automated decision-making including profiling according to Art. 22 para. 1 and 4 GDPR and possibly meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the scope and the intended effects of such processing. If we transfer personal data to a third country or an international organization, you can furthermore request information about the guarantees we have provided for the protection of your data. Your right to information may be restricted in individual cases by national law (§§ 29 para. 1 sentence 2, § 34 BDSG) as well as rights and freedoms of third parties.
Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR): You can request the immediate rectification of incorrect personal data concerning you or, taking into account the purposes of processing, the completion of incomplete personal data – also by means of a supplementary declaration.
Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR): Under certain circumstances, you have a claim to immediate erasure of your personal data, e.g. if your personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed, if you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for processing or if you have objected to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes. The claim does not exist insofar as processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the exercise of official authority entrusted to us or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims. Your right to erasure may be restricted in individual cases by national law (§ 35 BDSG).
Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR): You can request the restriction of processing if you contest the accuracy of the personal data for the duration of the verification of the accuracy by us, if the processing is unlawful, you refuse the erasure of your personal data, if we no longer need your personal data, but you need the data for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims, or if you have lodged an objection to processing.
Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR): You have the right to data portability, i.e. the right to receive the personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to transmit, if we process your personal data on the basis of your consent or a contract and the processing takes place with the help of automated procedures.
Right to lodge an objection to data processing by us (Art. 21 GDPR).

Right to object according to Art. 21 GDPR

You have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you, which takes place on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. e (public security) or lit. f (balancing of interests) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. We will no longer process this data upon lodging the objection, unless there are compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override or the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If we process the personal data concerning you for direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected with such direct marketing. We will no longer process your personal data for direct marketing if you make use of your objection.

Insofar as our processing of your personal data is based on consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR), you can revoke this at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation remains unaffected by this.

To assert your rights as well as for further questions on the topic of personal data, you can contact us at any time and use the contact details mentioned above for this (see section 1 of this privacy policy). Independently of this, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority – in particular in the EU member state of your habitual residence, your workplace or the place of the alleged infringement – if you are of the opinion that the processing of personal data concerning you violates the GDPR or other applicable data protection laws (Art. 77 GDPR, § 19 BDSG).

9. Data security

To prevent the loss or misuse of your data, we protect your data through technical and organizational measures. For this reason, we oblige our employees who process personal data to maintain and comply with data secrecy. Your personal data is transmitted in encrypted form. We use TLS (Transport Layer Security) technology for communication via your internet browser. You can recognize this by the lock symbol in the address bar of your web browser. In addition, we secure our website and other systems through technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction, access, modification or distribution of your data by unauthorized persons.

10. Automated decision-making

We generally do not use fully automated decision-making according to Art. 22 GDPR. Should we use these procedures in individual cases, we will inform you separately about this, provided this is legally required.
