3. Information on data processing
Your data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies, the deletion of the data does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations and no other information is provided below on individual processing procedures.
I. Server data
For technical reasons, in particular to ensure a secure and stable Internet presence, data is transmitted to us or to our web space provider by your Internet browser. With these so-called server log files, the type and version of your Internet browser, the operating system, the website from which you have switched to our Internet presence (referrer URL), the website(s) of our Internet presence that you visit, the date and time of the respective access and the IP address of the Internet connection from which our Internet presence is used are collected, among other things.
The data collected in this way is stored temporarily, but not together with other data about you.
This storage takes place on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality and security of our website.
The data will be deleted after seven days at the latest, unless further storage is required for evidence purposes. Otherwise, the data is excluded from deletion in whole or in part until an incident has been finally clarified.
II. Cookies
1. Session cookies
We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your end device by the Internet browser you use. These cookies are used to process certain information from you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, on an individual basis.
This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as the processing enables, for example, the reproduction of our website in different languages or the offer of a shopping basket function.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies process data for contract initiation or contract fulfilment.
If the processing does not serve to initiate or fulfil a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
These session cookies are deleted when you close your Internet browser.
2. Third-party cookies
Our website may also use cookies from partner companies with whom we work for the purposes of advertising, analysing or the functionalities of our website.
Please refer to the following information for details, in particular the purposes and legal basis for processing such third-party cookies.
3. Possibility of elimination
You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. You can also delete cookies that have already been saved at any time. However, the steps and measures required for this depend on the specific Internet browser you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation of your Internet browser or contact its manufacturer or support. In the case of so-called Flash cookies, however, processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings. Instead, you must change the settings of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the specific Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please also use the help function or documentation of your Flash player or contact the manufacturer or user support.
However, if you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may mean that not all functions of our website can be used to their full extent.
III. User login
Prior registration or login is required to access the digitised film material. As part of this registration process, we collect users’ email addresses. Login is carried out using a one-time password (OTP), which is sent to the user via email for each access. No permanent password is issued.
The email address is processed for the following purposes:
- Protection of copyright-protected content against unauthorised access
- Prevention of automated access by bots and scraping services
- Ensuring individual and controlled use of the content provided
- Traceability of access to prevent misuse
- Enforcement of the terms of use, in particular the prohibition on the distribution and reproduction of the film material
By registering, users also confirm that they will use the content provided exclusively for private purposes and will not reproduce, distribute or make it available to third parties without authorisation.
Processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR (legitimate interest). Our legitimate interest lies in protecting copyright-protected content and in ensuring the secure and trouble-free operation of the website.
The email addresses collected are stored only for as long as is necessary to provide access and to achieve the purposes set out above.
Log data (e.g. login times) is stored for a limited period for security reasons and subsequently deleted, unless security-related incidents necessitate longer retention.
The email address is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose of access control or the user requests its deletion, provided that no statutory retention obligations prevent this.
Data is not disclosed to third parties as a matter of principle, unless this is necessary for technical provision (e.g. email service providers) or we are legally obliged to do so.
IV. Matomo (formerly: PIWIK)
Our website uses Matomo (formerly: PIWIK). This is open-source software with which we can analyze the use of our site. Data such as your IP address, the pages you visit, the website from which you came (referrer URL), the duration of your visit, and the frequency of your visits is processed.
In case you have granted your consent to this processing the legal basis is Article 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The legal basis can also be Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis and optimization of our website.
We use Matomo with the "Automatically Anonymize Visitor IPs" function. This anonymization function truncates your IP address by two bytes so that it is impossible to assign it to you or to the internet connection you are using.
If you do not agree to this processing, you have the option of preventing the installation of cookies by making the appropriate settings in your browser. Further details can be found in the section about cookies above.
In addition, you have the option of terminating the analysis of your usage behavior by opting out. By deactivating the checkbox below a cookie is stored on your device via your browser to prevent any further analysis. Please note, however, that you must deactivate the checkbox again if you delete the cookies stored on your end device.
V. Contact
If you contact us via contact form or e-mail, the data you provide will be used to process your enquiry. The provision of the data is necessary for processing and answering your enquiry - without it we cannot answer your enquiry or can only answer it to a limited extent.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted if your enquiry has been conclusively answered and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations, such as in the case of any subsequent contract processing.
