3.   Newsletter

You have the possibility to subscribe to Materna Radar Cyber Security newsletter that includes periodical information. Therefore we need your email address and your declaration that you agree with the subscription, as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the recipient of the email address.

To ensure that the newsletter is sent to you, we use the double-opt-in procedure. In the course of this procedure, the potential recipient is copied into a distribution list. Afterwards potential subscribers receive a confirmation email to confirm their subscription. Only by giving official acknowledgement, the email address will be included in the distribution list.

In addition to the Materna Radar Cyber Security newsletter, we offer regular publications on cyber security as well as about relevant events. Materna Radar Cyber Security’s Cyber Defense Center occasionally offers Security Advisories and thus processes email address, first name, last name and company name.

Newsletter2Go/Brevo are used as newsletter software. Your data is transmitted to Sendinblue GmbH. The Sendinblue GmbH is prohibited from selling your data and from using it for purposes other than sending newsletters. Sendinblue GmbH is a certified German newsletter software provider, working in accordance with the European directive 95/46, as well as the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

You are asked to provide the following set of personal data:

Optionally, you may also provide information about your business phone number, business street name, street number and business zip code.

If you do not provide this information, we will not be able to process your event registration/subscription data and you will not be able to attend our event and/or receive publications from us.

With publications, the collected data will not be forwarded to any third party. For events, the collected data will be processed for informing you in advance about the event, for the coordination of the event and for review purposes (event photos, videos, summary).

In addition we process any communication with you in relation to the event for which you have registered, including information leaflets prepared for informing you about the event, provided you have informed us about your areas of interest, have subscribed to content or have asked information from us.

Event registrations and event deregistrations may be processed by a software as a service provider (SaaS). We are currently working with Sendinblue GmbH.

Events may be carried out in cooperation with event partners. Thus, your personal data may be transmitted to event partners. For events that are organized together with third party partners, the following personal data is passed on (for the purpose of executing the event) to these event partners:

7.1    Cookies

Without your consent websites of Materna Radar Cyber Security are using cookies if technically necessary (e.g. for securing user sessions) and to improve user experience. If technically not required these do not contain user IDs and do not allow a user tracking across websites. These cookies, which are primarily intended to ensure that your information is preserved during a session, only exist until you end your internet session and completely close your browser. With your consent cookies by third parties may be used. Using your browser settings, you can block, manage, and delete cookies. If you change your browser’s settings, it may occur that you cannot fully use all of the functions of our internet pages.

7.2    Server Logs

For technical reasons, the following data sent by your internet browser to us or to our server provider will be collected, especially to ensure a secure and reliable website: These server log files record the type and version of your browser, operating system, the website from which you came (referrer URL), the webpages on our site visited, the date and time of your visit, as well as the IP address from which you visited our site.

The data thus collected will be temporarily stored, but not in association with any other of your data. The data will be deleted within a reasonable timeframe unless continued storage is required for evidentiary purposes. In which case, all or part of the data will be excluded from deletion until the investigation of the relevant incident is finally resolved.

7.3     Social Media Buttons

The website allows the use of so-called “social media buttons”. (Personal) Data will be forwarded to the services of the respective provider only after clicking. After the forwarding of the user, information about the user is recorded by the respective network. It cannot be ruled out that the data collected in this way will be processed outside the European Union. The implementation is based on the solution “c’t Shariff”. More information about the Shariff solution can be found here 

We have integrated the social media buttons of the following companies on our website:

  • X Inc. 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107
  • YouTube LLC., 901 Cherry Ave., 94066 San Bruno, CA, USA
  • XING AG (Gänsemarkt 43 – 20354 Hamburg – Germany)
  • LinkedIn Corporation (2029 Stierlin Court – Mountain View – CA 94043 – United States)

7.4     Embedded YouTube Videos

The website provides embedded YouTube videos. (Personal) Data will be forwarded to YouTube only after clicking on the video preview image.

The videos are then loaded in advanced privacy mode and a connection is established to be able to display the respective video on our website within your browser. YouTube may collect further personal data. Further information about the collection and use of data as well as your rights and protection options in Google’s privacy policy found at https://policies.google.com/privacy

7.5    Matomo

The software “Matomo” is used for web analysis and measurement. This sets cookies on the end device of the visitors. The user data collected during the use of Matomo is only processed by us and is not shared with third parties. The cookies are stored for a maximum period of 13 months. The cookies have a maximum storage period of 13 months and can also be deleted by the user himself.

7.6 LinkedIn Analytics and conversion tracking

We use LinkedIn conversion tracking of LinkedIn Inc. on our website. An Insight Tag has been implemented on this website. The LinkedIn Insight Tag enables visits to our website to be recorded, including URL, referrer URL, IP address, device and browser properties (user agent), as well as time stamps. The IP addresses are shortened or (if they are used to reach members across devices) hashed. The direct identifiers of the members are removed within 7 days in order to pseudonymize the data. The remaining pseudonymized data will be deleted within 180 days.

LinkedIn does not share any personal data with us, but only provides reports and information on the website’s target group and the advertising performance. LinkedIn also offers retargeting for website visitors, since we can use this data to display targeted advertisements apart from our website without identifying the member. You can find more information on data collection and data use via LinkedIn’s data protection policy at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy. If you are logged in to LinkedIn, you can deactivate the data collection default at any time using the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/enhanced-advertising.

7.7 Twitter

Our website uses social plugins of the social network twitter.com (“Twitter”). Detailed information on the functions of the individual plugins and their appearance can be found on the following website: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/twitter-for-websites

The pages of our website that contain Twitter social plugins establish a direct connection with Twitter’s servers via your browser when you open them. This transmits to Twitter the information that the page of our website containing the social plugin has been accessed by you. If you are logged in to Twitter at this time, your visit to our pages and all of your interactions in connection with the social plugins (e.g. clicking the “Twitter” button) can be assigned to your Twitter profile and stored by Twitter. Even if you do not have a Twitter profile, it cannot be ruled out that Twitter will store your IP address.

With regard to the purpose and scope of the data collection as well as the processing and use of the data by Twitter, we refer to the Twitter privacy policy. There you will also find an overview of the settings options in your personal Twitter profile to protect your privacy and your related rights.

To prevent Twitter from collecting the above-mentioned data through your visit to our website, log out of Twitter before visiting our site. To prevent Twitter from generally accessing your data on our and other websites, you can exclude Twitter social plugins by using an add-on for your browser (e.g. “Twitter Blocker”).

8.   Data Detention
