For this, you generally need to provide further personal data, which we use to provide the respective service and for which the aforementioned principles for data processing apply.

Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

This may include the data mentioned in § 3 (1).

(5) Furthermore, we may pass on your personal data to third parties if participation in promotions, competitions, contract conclusions, or similar services are offered by us jointly with partners. You will receive more detailed information on this when you provide your personal data or below in the description of the offer.

§ 5 Objection or Revocation against the Processing of your Data

(1) If you have given consent to the processing of your data, you can revoke it at any time. Such a revocation affects the permissibility of processing your personal data after you have expressed it to us.

(2) Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on a balancing of interests, you can object to the processing. This is the case if the processing is not necessary for the fulfillment of a contract with you, which is explained by us in the following description of the functions. When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will examine the situation and either stop or adjust the data processing or show you our compelling legitimate grounds on which we continue the processing.

(3) Of course, you can object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes at any time. You can inform us of your advertising objection using the following contact details: privacy(at)marche-int.com.

§ 6 SSL or TLS Encryption

(1) For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, we use SSL or TLS encryption on our website. This allows inquiries via the contact form or orders via the site to be transmitted securely. You can recognize SSL or TLS encryption by the addition “https://” in the address bar of your internet browser and a closed padlock symbol displayed next to it.

(2) If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, data can be transmitted to us via the website without being read by third parties.

§ 7 Email Contact and Use of the Contact Form

(1) To contact us, you can use the contact form, email address, phone number, or the specified social networks to submit inquiries, reservations, requests, and feedback. Personal data, such as name, email address, or phone number, will be processed. We process the data provided by the user exclusively for contacting them and processing their related request.

(2) The legal basis for the processing of this data is, according to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest in contacting you and processing your request.

(3) If the inquiry via the contact form or email leads to a contract, the processing of the provided data is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR.

(4) The provided data will be processed until it is no longer required for the purpose. The purpose is no longer applicable when the user’s concern has been conclusively clarified and contact has ended.

(5) The user has the option to object to data processing at any time. In this case, the data provided for contact will be deleted and no longer used. The objection should be sent to the following email address: privacy(at)marche-int.com.

§ 8 Newsletter Subscription

(1) We offer a newsletter on our website in which we inform you about our products and services as well as various offers. Personal data is collected when you subscribe to the newsletter. Your email address is necessary to send you the newsletter. All other information you provide is voluntary and is only used for personal addressing in the newsletter.

(2) The legal basis for the processing of data during newsletter registration is, according to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, your consent.

(3) We only store your provided data once you have given us effective consent. To legally obtain your consent, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure. For this, we send you a message with a confirmation link to the email address you entered. If you confirm this link, you have successfully subscribed to the newsletter. If you do not confirm this link within 24 hours, it will expire. With this confirmation, we store your email address, IP address, and the time of registration. This data serves as proof of registration and to detect possible misuse of your personal data.

(4) You can revoke your given consent for the newsletter at any time. You can send this to privacy(at)marche-int.com or by clicking the unsubscribe link in a newsletter you received from us. If you revoke your consent or unsubscribe from the newsletter, you will no longer receive newsletters in the future, and we will delete your data provided in this regard.

(5) We use success measurement for our newsletters. The newsletters contain a so-called “web beacon”, i.e., a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from our server, or, if we use a shipping service provider, from their server, when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and the time of retrieval, are collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services based on technical data or target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or access times. The statistical surveys also include determining whether newsletters are opened, when they are opened, and which links are clicked. Although this information can be assigned to individual newsletter recipients for technical reasons, it is neither our endeavor nor, if used, that of the shipping service provider, to observe individual users.

The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (balancing of interests) in conjunction with our interest in recognizing the reading habits of our users and adapting our content to them or sending different content according to the interests of our users.

If you do not wish to be included in the success measurement, you can object by unsubscribing from the newsletter. To do this, you can click the link contained in every newsletter or send your objection to privacy(at)marche-int.com. In this case, you will no longer receive newsletters in the future.
