A confirmation email is sent to the email address initially provided for the newsletter, in accordance with legal requirements, via the Double-Opt-In procedure.

Cookies
The websites of Culture Dynamics AG use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an internet browser.
Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters that allows websites and servers to be associated with the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the affected person from other browsers that contain different cookies. A particular internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.
By using cookies, Culture Dynamics AG can provide users with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without setting cookies.
Through a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized in the interest of the user. As mentioned, cookies allow us to recognize users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, a user does not need to re-enter their login credentials each time they visit the website, as this information is taken from the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie for a shopping cart in an online store. The online store remembers the items a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart through a cookie..
Cookies are used for the following purposes:
- Activating specific functions of a service (see §15)
- Providing analyses (see §14)
The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time through a corresponding setting of the internet browser used, and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time through an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If the affected person disables the setting of cookies in the internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

Data Protection in Applications and the Application Process
The data controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application process. The processing may also take place electronically. This is especially the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents electronically, for example, via email or through a web form on the website, to the data controller. The transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing possible subsequent application procedures and for sending further information in compliance with legal regulations. Without an active objection from the affected parties, we assume their consent in this regard.

Data Protection Provisions Regarding the Use of Google Analytics (with Anonymization Function)
The data controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on the website of Culture Dynamics AG. Google Analytics is a web analysis service. Web analysis is the collection, gathering, and evaluation of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analysis service collects data such as from which website a person arrived at the website (so-called referrer), which subpages of the website were accessed, or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. Web analysis is primarily used to optimize a website and to conduct a cost-benefit analysis of online advertising.
The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The data controller uses the “_gat._anonymizeIp” addition for web analysis via Google Analytics. This addition shortens and anonymizes the IP address of the affected person’s internet connection when accessing the website of Culture Dynamics AG from a member state of the European Union or another state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the traffic on the website of Culture Dynamics AG. Google uses the data and information gathered to evaluate the use of the website of Culture Dynamics AG, to compile online reports that show the activities on the website of Culture Dynamics AG, and to provide additional services related to the use of the website of Culture Dynamics AG.
Google Analytics sets a cookie on the affected person’s information technology system. As already explained, cookies are text files. The setting of the cookie enables Google to analyze the use of our website. Each time an individual page of the website of Culture Dynamics AG, which is operated by the data controller and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, is called up, the internet browser on the affected person’s information technology system is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to send data for online analysis to Google. In the context of this technical procedure, Google becomes aware of personal data such as the affected person’s IP address, which Google uses, among other things, to track the origin of visitors and clicks and to enable commission settlements.
Through the cookie, personal information, such as the access time, the location from which an access was made, and the frequency of visits to the website of Culture Dynamics AG by the affected person, is stored. With each visit to the website of Culture Dynamics AG, this personal data, including the IP address of the affected person’s internet connection, is transmitted to Google in the United States. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States. Google may share this personal data with third parties through the technical procedure.
The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies by the website of Culture Dynamics AG, as already described above, at any time through a corresponding setting in the internet browser used and thereby permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting in the internet browser would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the affected person’s information technology system. In addition, any cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time through the internet browser or other software programs.
Furthermore, the affected person has the option to object to the collection of data generated by Google Analytics related to the use of the website of Culture Dynamics AG and the processing of this data by Google and to prevent it. To do so, the affected person must download and install a browser add-on at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout This browser add-on communicates with Google Analytics via JavaScript, indicating that no data and information on website visits may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered an objection by Google. If the affected person’s information technology system is later deleted, formatted, or reinstalled, the browser add-on must be reinstalled by the affected person to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the affected person or another person within their control, the option exists to reinstall or reactivate the browser add-on.
Further information and the applicable data protection provisions from Google can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html Google Analytics is explained in more detail at this link https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/ genauer erläutert.

Privacy Policy regarding the use and deployment of Google AdWords
The data controller has integrated Google AdWords on the website of Culture Dynamics AG. Google AdWords is an online advertising service that allows advertisers to place ads both in Google search results and within the Google ad network. Advertisers can define specific keywords, ensuring that their ads appear only when users input related search terms. Ads are automatically distributed to relevant websites within the Google ad network.
The operator of Google AdWords services is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The purpose of Google AdWords is to promote Culture Dynamics AG by displaying relevant advertisements on various websites and in Google search results.
When an individual reaches the website of Culture Dynamics AG via a Google ad, a so-called conversion cookie is set on their system. The conversion cookie expires after 30 days and is not used to identify the individual. The cookie enables both Google and Culture Dynamics AG to track whether certain pages of the website were visited and whether a contact form was submitted.
The data collected through the conversion cookie is used by Google to generate visitor statistics for the Culture Dynamics AG website. These statistics are used by Culture Dynamics AG to determine the number of visitors referred by AdWords ads and to optimize the ads. The data collected by Google AdWords does not allow identification of the individual.
The individual can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting their browser settings, thereby permanently opting out of cookies. A cookie that has already been set can be deleted at any time via the browser.
