5. NEWSLETTER
Sending our email newsletter via Wix
In this section, we explain how we handle newsletter registration, dispatch, content, and the evaluation of user interactions.
Consent to Subscribe
If you wish to subscribe to our newsletter and receive it regularly, you must provide a valid email address and consent to the processing of your personal data. This consent is collected through two methods:
-
Double Opt-In: In most cases, after registering, you will receive a confirmation email as part of the double opt-in process. This ensures we have explicit consent to activate your subscription and prevents misuse of third-party email addresses. You will need to click the confirmation link in the email to complete your subscription.
-
Checkbox for Free Downloads: In certain forms, such as when offering free downloads (e.g., an eGuide), you subscribe to our newsletter by checking a box to confirm your consent. This method does not use a double opt-in process but is still fully compliant with GDPR. By checking the box, you consent to receive our newsletter, which you can unsubscribe from at any time.
In both cases, we store the time of registration, confirmation time (where applicable), IP address, and the text of the consent provided for documentation purposes. Your email address is used exclusively for sending the newsletter unless you have expressly agreed to additional uses.
Tracking and Analytics
Our newsletters may include small, invisible files called beacons, which enable us to evaluate and improve our content. These beacons allow us to track:
-
When the newsletter is opened
-
Click behavior on links within the newsletter
-
The IP address, browser, and time of interaction
We use this information to better understand user behavior and optimize future content. If you wish to avoid this tracking, you can prevent the loading of images in your email client settings.
Legal Basis
The newsletter is sent based on your consent, in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a and Article 7 GDPR. The analysis of click and open rates is conducted based on our legitimate interest in optimizing our offers, under Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f GDPR.
Third-Party Service Providers
The newsletter is dispatched using Wix (40 Namal Tel Aviv St., Tel Aviv, Israel). Wix’s privacy policy can be found here. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Wix, in compliance with Article 28 GDPR.
Unsubscribing
You may withdraw your consent and unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by using the link provided at the bottom of each newsletter. Upon unsubscribing, your data will be immediately removed from our mailing list.

6. PLUGINS AND TOOLS
YouTube with enhanced privacy
Our website uses YouTube plugins in enhanced privacy mode, which limits data transfer until you play a video. However, once the video is played, YouTube may collect information about your browsing activity. This usage is based on our legitimate interest to provide engaging content under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
For more information, see YouTube’s Privacy Policy.
This revised policy uses clear, accessible language, strengthens international data transfer protections, and ensures cookie consent is managed properly. It aligns with GDPR and German law, making it easier for users to understand their rights and how their data is used.
