Data protection
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains which data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We point out that data transmission on the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
Information on the controller
The controller for data processing on this website is:
Kornclub e.K.
Marcus Fehn
Isestraße 5
20144 Hamburg
Phone: 0160-4579912
Email: info@kornclub.io
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 period
Unless a more specific storage period has been stated in this privacy policy, your personal data remains with us until the purpose for the data processing ceases to apply. If you assert a legitimate request for erasure or withdraw consent to data processing, your data will be erased unless we have other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g. tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, erasure takes place after those grounds cease to apply.
General information on the legal bases for data processing on this website
If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. We further process your data if this is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The legal bases relevant in each individual case are set out in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.
Recipients of personal data
In the course of our business activities we work with various external parties. This sometimes also requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only pass personal data on to external parties if this is necessary in the context of performing a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. passing data on to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in the disclosure, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure. When using processors, we pass on personal data of our customers only on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the event of joint processing, a joint-controller agreement is concluded.
Withdrawal of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw consent already given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out until the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, 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 CONNECTED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(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 supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only insofar as it is technically feasible.
Access, rectification, and erasure
Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain information free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient, and the purpose of the data processing and, where applicable, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. You may contact us at any time about this and about other questions on personal data.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time about this. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
- If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of erasure.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the exercise, defense, or establishment of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
- If you have objected under 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 restriction of processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data — apart from its storage — may be processed only 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 interest 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 inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
4. Data collection on this website
Server log files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
- Browser type and browser version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Host name of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
This data is not merged with other data sources.
This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of the website — to this end the server log files must be collected.
Fonts (web fonts)
This website uses so-called web fonts, provided by CDNFonts (cdnfonts.com), so that typefaces are displayed consistently. When you open a page, your browser loads the required fonts into its cache. To do this, your browser establishes a connection to CDNFonts’ servers. CDNFonts may thereby become aware that this website was accessed via your IP address. Further technical data may be transmitted (e.g. browser type, operating system, referrer URL, time of the request).
CDNFonts is used in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online offering. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Further information can be found in CDNFonts’ privacy policy: https://www.cdnfonts.com/privacy-policy.
Inquiries by email, phone
If you contact us by email, phone, your inquiry including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of dealing with your request. We do not pass this data on without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
The data you send to us via contact inquiries remains with us until you ask us to erase it, withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage ceases to apply (e.g. after your request has been dealt with). Mandatory statutory provisions — in particular statutory retention periods — remain unaffected.
