This privacy policy is intended to inform you about the collection of personal data when using our website. Personal data means all data that can be personally related to you, e.g. name, address, email addresses, user behaviour.

Responsible Body

SCNTSTS UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Münzstraße 10, 10178 Berlin is the controller within the meaning of Art. 4 No. 7 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Contact via Email

If you contact us by email, it is necessary to store the data you provide (your email address, and where applicable your name, address, and telephone number) in order to process your enquiry. The data collected in this context will be deleted once storage is no longer necessary. If statutory retention obligations apply, we will restrict the processing accordingly.

Data Processing

For individual functions of our offering on this website, it may be necessary to use commissioned service providers. We inform you below in detail about the respective processes and specify the defined criteria for the storage period. Where our service providers are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we inform you of the consequences of this in the description of the offering.

Promotional Use

If we wish to use your data for promotional purposes, we will inform you below in detail about the respective processes. We will also specify the defined criteria for the storage period.

  • the right to information,
  • the right to rectification or deletion,
  • the right to restriction of processing,
  • the right to object to processing, and
  • the right to data portability.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data by us.

The supervisory authority responsible for us is:

The Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information, Friedrichstr. 219, 10969 Berlin

Data Collected When Visiting Our Website

When you use our website purely for informational purposes, i.e. if you do not submit data to us via a form or otherwise transmit information, we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server.

If you merely wish to view our website, we collect the following data on the legal basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, which is technically necessary for us to display our website and to ensure its stability and security:

Server Logs

Data transmitted by your browser (log files):

  • IP address
  • Date and time of the request
  • Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
  • Content of the request (specific page)
  • Access status / HTTP status code
  • Amount of data transferred
  • Referring website
  • Browser
  • Operating system and its interface
  • Language and version of the browser software

This data is deleted after two days.

Contact Forms

You can send us an electronic message via the contact form integrated on our website.

To process your message, we need your email address and, if contact via other communication channels is desired, the relevant details. We ask for this data in our contact form. Additional information is voluntary and serves to facilitate more user-friendly contact with you. This data is transmitted to us by email when you click the submit button.

The contact form offers you the possibility to conveniently get in touch with us and send us enquiries about our offering. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Matomo

This website uses a server-side instance of Matomo (formerly Piwik) for web analytics without the use of cookie technology. The protection of your data is important to us, which is why we have additionally configured Matomo so that IP addresses are only collected in truncated form. We therefore process any personal usage data anonymously. It is not possible for us to draw conclusions about your identity.

The legal basis for the use of Matomo is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, as we have a legitimate interest in ensuring the functionality and usability of our website.

Race Result

For event registration and management, we use the platform and services of race result AG, Joseph-von-Fraunhofer-Str. 11, 76327 Pfinztal. The legal basis for the use of race result is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. We have concluded a corresponding data processing agreement with race result AG.

Cookies

When using our website, so-called cookies are also used.

These are small text files stored on your device that serve to make the internet offering as a whole more user-friendly and effective. Both transient cookies and persistent cookies are used.

Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. These include session cookies in particular. A session ID is stored in these, which allows various requests from your browser to be assigned to the same session. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser.

Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified duration, which varies depending on the cookie.

You can delete the cookies we set in your browser's security settings at any time, or configure your browser settings according to your preferences, e.g. to reject third-party cookies or all cookies. Please note that you may not be able to use all features of this website in that case.

The legal basis for the respective use of cookies is stated below.

Collected data is only transferred to third parties if this is required by law.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings accordingly; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all features of this website to their full extent.

Newsletter

With your consent, you can subscribe to our newsletter, through which we inform you about our current events and offers from our partners. The advertised goods and services are specified in the respective declaration of consent.

We use the so-called double opt-in procedure for newsletter registration. This means that after your registration, we will send an email to the specified email address asking you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your registration within 24 hours, your information will be blocked and automatically deleted after one month. In addition, we store your IP addresses and the times of registration and confirmation. The purpose of this procedure is to verify your registration and, if necessary, to investigate any possible misuse of your personal data.

The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your email address. The provision of further data such as salutation, first name, and last name is voluntary and is used to address you personally.

After your confirmation, we store your email address for the purpose of sending the newsletter until you unsubscribe.

The newsletters contain a so-called "web beacon", i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from our server, or from the server of our mailing service provider, when the newsletter is opened. Technical information such as browser and system information, as well as your IP address and the time of retrieval, are collected.

It is also recorded whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened, and which links are clicked. This information is associated with individual newsletter recipients and stored in their profiles until deletion. The evaluations help us to recognise the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content or to send different content according to the interests of our users.

For newsletter delivery, we use the service Brevo by Sendinblue GmbH, Köpenicker Str. 126, 10179 Berlin as a specialised service provider. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Brevo for the processing of personal data. The servers are located in Germany and Europe. No data is transferred to countries outside the EEA.

Brevo's privacy policy: https://www.brevo.com/de/legal/privacypolicy/

The legal basis for processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Objection, Revocation of Data Processing

If you have given consent to the processing of your data, you may revoke this consent at any time. Such a revocation will affect the permissibility of the processing of your personal data.

If we base the processing of your personal data on the balancing of interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f), you may object to the processing. This is particularly relevant if the processing is not necessary for the performance of a contract with you or for corresponding pre-contractual measures.

When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done.

If the objection is justified, we will examine the situation and will either cease or adjust the data processing, or demonstrate our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.

Of course, you may object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes at any time.

You can inform us of your revocation or objection using the following contact details:
