Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

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.).

Storage duration

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commer-cial law); in the latter case, the deletion will take place after these reasons no longer apply.

General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, insofar as special categories of data are processed in accord-ance with Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR.

Note on the transfer of data to third countries that are not secure under data protection law and the transfer to US companies that are not DPF-certified

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in third countries that are not secure under data protection law and US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these countries and processed there. We would like to point out that a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed in third countries that are not secure under data protection law.
We would like to point out that the USA, as a safe third country, generally has a level of data protec-tion comparable to that of the EU. Data transfer to the USA is therefore permitted if the recipient is certified under the "EU-US Data Privacy Framework" (DPF) or has suitable additional guarantees. In-formation on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.

Recipients of personal data

As part of our business activities, we work together with various external bodies. In some cases, it is also necessary to transfer personal data to these external bodies. We only pass on personal data to external bodies if this is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. passing on data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR or if another legal basis permits the transfer of data. When using proces-sors, we only pass on our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid contract for order pro-cessing. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaf-fected by the revocation.

Right to object to the collection of data in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 ABS. 1 LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OB-JECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ARTICLE 21(1) GDPR). IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING INSOFAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21 PARA. 2 GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervi-sory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in ful-filment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only take place if it is techni-cally feasible.

Information, correction and deletion

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, if nec-essary, a right to correction or deletion of this data at any time. You can contact us at any time if you have further questions on the subject of personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to do this. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
• If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to check this. You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data for the duration of the review.
• If the processing of your personal data was/is carried out unlawfully, you can request the re-striction of data processing instead of erasure.
• If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the exercise, defense or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
• If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data - apart from its storage - may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public inter-est of the European Union or of a Member State.

SSL or TLS encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an en-crypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to advertising e-mails

We hereby object to the use of contact data published as part of our obligation to provide a legal no-tice for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information material. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of ad-vertising information, such as spam e-mails.

1. We have integrated the Neocom guided selling service from Neo Commerce GmbH (hereinafter "Neocom"), Max-Bill-Str. 8, 80807 Munich, Germany, on our website to provide you with digital interactive product advice (bicycle tire advisor). When you start this product advice, you can find your desired product in a quiz-like, guided process and receive a product recommendation at the end, which you can then have sent to you by e-mail if you wish.
2. In the course of the consultation, Neocom collects the following browser http information: Browser type and version, IP address, language of the browser software. In addition, a session ID is generated and temporarily stored on your device during the browser session in order to be able to offer the consultation. The purpose is to enable the correct and complete display and execu-tion of the digital product consultation, similar to a shopping cart function. The legal basis is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR (browser query) and Art. 6 pa-ra. 1 sentence 1 lt. a GDPR (consent regarding session ID).
3. Your e-mail address will be requested in order to send the product recommendation by e-mail at your request. This will only be used by Neocom for the mailing you have requested. However, this will only take place with your prior consent. The legal basis is therefore Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR. We use the so-called "double opt-in procedure" for registration. After entering your email address, you will receive an email from us with a confirmation link to confirm your request to send the product recommendation. If you click on this confirmation link, your e-mail will be saved for the purpose of sending the e-mail. If you do not click on the confirmation link within 24 hours, your registration data will be blocked. You have the option of withdrawing your consent to the processing of personal data at any time in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

Pretix

For ticket sales, we use a tool from the provider rami.io GmbH, Berthold-Mogel-Straße 1, 69126 Hei-delberg. When you buy a ticket, we process the data exclusively to carry out the requested sale and to forward the data to the organizer. We do not use the data ourselves and do not associate it with your purchas-es from other organizers. To obtain a complete picture of how your data is used, you must contact the respective organizer, who is the legal controller of your data. We act as a processor for the organizer.
When you buy a ticket, we use cookies to improve the ordering process and to remember which shop-ping cart belongs to you. We do not store IP addresses, browser information or other unnecessary metadata beyond the duration of your request.
The rami.io GmbH team has access to your data in order to analyse technical problems and answer support requests. This access is only used to help you and the organizers. Access by the rami.io GmbH team is logged and checked regularly.
If you pay for your ticket via a payment provider such as PayPal, Stripe, Mollie or Sofortüberweisung, we only transfer the absolutely necessary data to the respective payment service provider. The addi-tional data collected by the payment service provider is outside our control.
If you provide an e-mail address from Outlook or similar providers, we may send e-mails to you via Rapidmail, a German e-mail provider, as Outlook often rejects our direct e-mails as spam.
