Due to its business purpose and its projects and companies, The Reach Group GmbH deals extensively with the collection, processing and use of personal data. Personal data is information about personal or factual circumstances of a certain or identifiable natural person (so-called person concerned), such as name, address, age, e-mail address, telephone number or information about certain preferences, inclinations etc..
The collection of such data means obtaining them; processing personal data means storing, modifying, transmitting, blocking and deleting them; use is any use of personal data that does not constitute processing.
Personal data is protected by the EU General Data Protection Regulation and the national regulations of the member states. The Reach Group GmbH observes these regulations and thus respects the right of the individual to his or her personality and to the protection of his or her privacy.
The Reach Group GmbH takes the protection of your data very seriously. For this purpose, and in order to comply with data protection regulations, the following data protection declaration serves:
The Reach Group does not collect or process any personal data in the case of mere advertising contacts with the user (e.g. by displaying advertisements on a website). Only non-personal data such as information about the server through which the user has accessed the Internet, the browser used and any advertising clicks by the respective user are logged anonymously. This does not create any personal reference.
The Reach Group GmbH also collects and processes personal data via various advertising media or websites. The scope and nature of the data depends on the information that the user enters by filling in the relevant input fields and submitting this information to The Reach Group.
If there is a contractual relationship between The Reach Group GmbH and the Internet user (for example when requesting a newsletter), The Reach Group processes and uses the data collected from the user to fulfil its obligations towards the user, insofar as this is necessary for this purpose. Insofar as The Reach Group GmbH pursues purposes beyond the processing and fulfilment of contractual or similar relationships with the collection, processing and use of data, this only takes place on the basis of an explicit consent given by the user and only to the extent specified by the consent. Such purposes are essentially marketing-oriented and include the use of the data collected for market research, customer acquisition, product information or service development, among other things.
Your data will be processed on the following legal bases:
When processing your data, we pursue the following legitimate interests:
Unless otherwise stated, we receive the data from you (including the equipment you use).
Data is transferred to third countries outside the European Union. This is done on the basis of statutory contractual regulations which are intended to ensure an adequate protection of your data and which you can view on request.
We store your data,
Personal data is only collected by us if and only to the extent and for the purpose for which you voluntarily provide us with the data, e.g. as part of a registration.

All data-processing programs and facilities are password-protected and work using state-of-the-art encryption techniques.

The employees of The Reach Group GmbH are committed to maintaining data secrecy and data protection.

Personal data that is no longer required for the fulfilment of contractual purposes by The Reach Group GmbH and/or for the processing and use of which The Reach Group no longer has (or no longer) consent will be destroyed in a way that excludes any misuse.

Facebook is operated by Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA and is available at www.facebook.com. The individual social plugins are marked with one of the Facebook logos or the addition ‘Facebook Social Plugin’. A list with the appearance and functions of the individual plugins can be viewed here: developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins. When you visit a page on our website that contains such a social plugin, the browser you use establishes a direct connection to Facebook’s servers. The content of the social plugin is transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser and integrated into the website. We therefore have no control over the amount of data Facebook collects using the social plugins and will therefore inform you to the best of our knowledge: Due to the integration of the social plugins, Facebook is informed that you have visited the corresponding page of our website, even if you are not registered as a Facebook user or are not currently logged in to Facebook. This information, together with your IP address, is transmitted from your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there. According to Facebook information, only an anonymous IP address is stored by non-registered users in Germany. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly associate accessing our website with your Facebook account. Facebook receives the information about your visit to our website regardless of whether you interact with the social plugins or not. If you interact with the social plugins, for example by clicking the ‘Like’ button or making a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser to Facebook and stored there. The information is also published on Facebook and displayed to your Facebook friends. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your rights and setting options for the protection of your privacy can be found in Facebook’s data protection guidelines, which can be accessed at www.facebook.com/about/privacy. If you are a registered user of Facebook and do not want Facebook to collect information about you through our website and link to your membership information stored on Facebook, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website. It is also possible to block the social plugins with add-ons for your browser.
This website uses the buttons of the Twitter service provided by Twitter Inc, 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. These plugins can be identified by terms such as “Twitter’ or “Tweet’ or the Twitter logo. Among other things, they make it possible to share a contribution or a page of this website on Twitter. When a user calls up a website containing such a button, his browser establishes a direct connection to Twitter’s servers. The content of the Twitter button is transmitted directly from Twitter to the user’s browser. We therefore have no influence on the amount of data Twitter collects with the help of this plugin and can therefore only inform the user according to our level of knowledge: Afterwards log data such as the user’s IP address, the previously accessed website, etc. are transmitted. For more information, please see Twitter’s privacy policy:

Information on the newsletter and consents
With the following information we inform you about the contents of our newsletter as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedure and your rights of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to the receipt and the described procedures.
We will only send newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications containing advertising information (hereinafter “newsletters”) with the consent of the recipients or a legal permission. If the contents of a newsletter are specifically described within the scope of a registration, they are decisive for the consent of the users.
The registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can log in with other e-mail addresses.
Subscriptions to the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process in accordance with legal requirements. This includes the storage of the login and confirmation time, as well as the IP address. Also, the changes of your data stored with MailChimp are logged.
The newsletter is sent via “MailChimp”, a newsletter distribution platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.
The e-mail addresses of our newsletter recipients, as well as their further data described in the context of these notes, are stored on the servers of MailChimp in the USA. MailChimp uses this information to send and evaluate the newsletter on our behalf. Furthermore, MailChimp can use this data according to its own information to optimize or improve its own services, e.g. to technically optimize the sending and presentation of the newsletter or for economic purposes, in order to determine from which countries, the recipients come. However, MailChimp does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write them down or pass them on to third parties.
We trust in the reliability and IT and data security of MailChimp. MailChimp is certified under the US-EU data protection agreement “Privacy Shield” and thus commits itself to comply with EU data protection regulations. Furthermore, we have concluded a data processing agreement with MailChimp. This is a contract in which MailChimp undertakes to protect the data of our users, to process them on our behalf in accordance with their data protection regulations and in particular not to pass them on to third parties. The data protection regulations of MailChimp can be viewed here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/
To subscribe to the newsletter, simply enter your e-mail address.
Optionally, we ask you to enter your first and last name. This information is only used to personalize the newsletter.
The newsletters contain a so-called “web-beacon”, i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the MailChimp server when the newsletter is opened. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval are initially collected. This information is used to technically improve the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined using the IP address) or access times.
The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our endeavor, nor that of MailChimp, to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our contents to them or to send different contents according to the interests of our users.
There are cases, in which we direct the newsletter recipients to the web pages of MailChimp. For example, our newsletters contain a link with which the newsletter recipients can call up the newsletters online (e.g. in case of display problems in the e-mail program). Furthermore, newsletter recipients can subsequently correct their data, e.g. the e-mail address. Likewise, the privacy policy of MailChimp is only available on their site.
http://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/
In this context we point out that cookies are used on the websites of MailChimp and thus personal data are processed by MailChimp, its partners and service providers (e.g. Google Analytics). We have no influence on this data collection. Further information can be found in the privacy policy of MailChimp. In addition, we would like to draw your attention to the possibilities of objecting to the collection of data for advertising purposes on the websites http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ and http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ (for the European area).
You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. At the same time your consents to its dispatch via MailChimp and the statistical analyses expire. A separate cancellation of the dispatch via MailChimp or the statistical evaluation is unfortunately not possible.
You will find a link to cancel the newsletter at the end of each newsletter.
In accordance with the provisions of the German Version of the General Data Protection Resolution (DSGVO) valid from 25 May 2018, we inform you that your consents to the sending of e-mail addresses are based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, 7 DSGVO and § 7 para. 2 no. 3 and para. 3 UWG. The use of the shipping service provider MailChimp, carrying out statistical surveys and analyses as well as logging of the registration procedure, are based on our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. We are interested in using a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves both our business interests and the expectations of users.
We would also like to point out that you can object to the future processing of your personal data at any time in accordance with the statutory provisions of Art. 21 DSGVO. The objection may be lodged in particular against processing for direct marketing purposes.
The Reach Group GmbH uses double opt-in solutions: If the user agrees to the use of his data for the stated purposes, this consent is confirmed in a second step. In this way, The Reach Group ensures that no one other than the user enters the user data and releases it for use by The Reach Group GmbH. In this way, The Reach Group GmbH respects the user’s right to informational self-determination. The user can revoke the given consent at any time in whole or in part by the same means by which he has given the consent.
We will log your consent to the collection and storage of data or have the logging carried out by our partners. If required, we will inform you when and how you have given your consent.
We only collect the data we need to enable you to participate in a service or those for which you have given us your consent, e.g. by registering. If you do not give your consent, we ask for your understanding that you cannot participate in the respective service.
The Reach Group GmbH also collects, processes and uses personal data on behalf of contractual or cooperation partners (e.g. website operators, advertising customers, agencies), for example for the purpose of generating addresses for a newsletter subscription, product information, orders or similar.
If data is collected on behalf of The Reach Group GmbH, the cooperation partner is clearly identifiable at all times. In this case, the user can only assert his rights against the cooperation partner of The Reach Group GmbH. If The Reach Group GmbH collects, processes and uses data on behalf of cooperation partners, the cooperation partner is responsible for compliance with data protection regulations. In this case, The Reach Group GmbH does not vouch to the user for compliance with data protection regulations by its cooperation partners. No rights or obligations arise for The Reach Group GmbH from contracts or similar relationships that the user may enter into with a cooperation partner. The Reach Group GmbH also has no influence on these contracts, either directly or indirectly. In this case, The Reach Group GmbH is bound by its cooperation partner’s instructions.
It goes without saying that The Reach Group GmbH will only cooperate with partners who observe the data protection principles mentioned in this declaration in the same way as The Reach Group GmbH or at least guarantee the standard applicable under the EU General Data Protection Resolution.
The Reach Group GmbH will pass on the data collected and stored with your consent to business partners and sponsors within the framework of contractual agreements, insofar as this is necessary in your interest, for example, in the case of a contest. Of course, our business partners and sponsors are requested to comply with the legal data protection regulations. We collect your data in the following cases:
Depending on the situation, name, address, gender, date of birth, client id, telephone number, fax number, bank details, method of payment and e-mail address are collected and stored. In the case of electronic payment procedures, data may be collected and stored in accordance with the respective procedure.
All personal data collected by us, our partners, customers, third party service providers or subsidiaries, if applicable, is additionally centrally secured by The Reach Group GmbH and, if applicable, further processed or analyzed to create an anonymized profile if we have your consent.
We would like to expressly point out that we dissociate ourselves from the contents of the pages linked on this and all other pages of our Internet presence. We expressly point out that we have no influence on the contents of external homepages. Should the external sites contain violations of morality or laws, we will delete the links to these sites from our Internet presence immediately after becoming aware of these violations.
The Reach Group GmbH will not pass on any data to non-EU countries without your consent, unless this is expressly permitted by the DSGVO.
You can obtain information about the data we have stored about you at any time. If required, please write to:
