We collect, use and store your personal data exclusively in accordance with the provisions of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). Below you will find information on the type, scope and purpose of our collection and use of data.
Collection and use of data
Every visit to our website and every retrieval of a file stored on our website is recorded. Storage serves internal purposes relating to systems and statistics. The following are recorded: name of the retrieved file, date and time of the retrieval, volume of data transferred, notification of successful retrieval, web browser and enquiring domain. The IP addresses of visiting computers are also logged. Other personal data are only collected if the user of the website and/or client voluntarily provides information, be it as part of a query, registration, the conclusion of a contract or through the settings in their browser.
Our website uses cookies. A cookie is a text file which is downloaded and temporarily stored on the hard drive of the user and/or client when a website is visited. If the user and/or client visits that server of our website again, the user/client's browser sends the cookie it received last time back to the server. The server can then evaluate the information obtained through this process in various ways. For example, cookies can be used to control advertisements or facilitate navigation to a specific page. If the user and/or client wishes to block the use of cookies, this can be done locally by changing the settings in the internet browser on the user/client's computer, i.e. the program which opens and displays websites (e.g. Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Opera or Safari).
Use and disclosure of personal data
If the user has provided personal data, we shall only use it to respond to queries from the user and/or client, process contracts concluded with the user and/or client and for the purposes of technical administration. We shall only disclose or otherwise pass on personal data to third parties if this is necessary for the purposes of performing a contract or settling accounts, or if the user/client has consented to this in advance. The user and/or client is entitled to revoke his/her consent at any time, with future effect.
Stored personal data shall be deleted if the user and/or client revokes their consent to the data's storage, if the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was stored or if the storage of the data is unauthorised for other legal reasons. A request for deletion shall not affect payment and accounting data.
Newsletter data
If you would like to subscribe to the newsletter offered on our website, we require an e-mail address and information from you, which will enable us to check that you are the holder of the e-mail address and that you consent to receiving the newsletter. No further data will be collected. This data will be used solely to send the requested information and shall not be forwarded to any third party.
You may withdraw the consent you have given for storage of the data, e-mail address and its use to send the newsletter at any time, for example, by using the "Deliver" link in the newsletter.

However, if you are logged into Facebook or have a Twitter or Instagram account, personal data may be exported to the United States.

Contracts are in place with the service providers which comply with the data protection and security requirements of the EU GDPR. Solferino Paris Nord remains controller of processing even if external service providers are commissioned.
SSL encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, for example, for requests, which you send to us as the website operator, this website uses an SSL encryption. You can identify an encrypted link, as the address line in the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the padlock symbol in your browser line. If the SSL encryption is activated, the data that you forward to us cannot be read by third parties.
Right to access, erase and to block
You are entitled, at all times, to be informed, free of charge, about all personal data that we have stored about you, its origin and recipient and for what purpose data is processed, and a right to rectify, block or erase such data.

Demographic features for Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics' "Demographic Features" function. This enables reports to be produced that contain statements about the website owner's age, gender and interests. This data comes from interest-related advertising by Google from the visitor data of third-party providers. This data cannot be attributed to any specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time by using the display settings in your Google account or generally prevent your data from being collected by Google Analytics, as outlined under the point "Objecting to data collection".
Retargeting technology
This website uses retargeting tags. A retargeting tag is a JavaScript element that is placed in the website's source code. When a user visits a page of this website that contains a retargeting tag, an online advertising supplier (e.g. Google) places a cookie on the user's computer and assigns this cookie to corresponding retargeting target group lists. The cookie is then used to activate retargeting campaigns ("interest-based advertising") on other websites. Studies have shown that displaying interest-based advertising has more appeal to internet users than advertising with no direct link to interests or previously visited websites.
Options for changing settings
Third-party users, including Google, use these cookies to activate displays on the basis of a user's previous visits to our website. This process does not involve the storage of any personal data. Users of this website can deactivate the use of cookies on the part of by Google by opening the "Google ads settings" page.
