In which cases will we process personal data

We will process personal data which you transfer to us actively by your entries. Additionally, we will process personal data in an automated way, based on the use of our service. Particularly in the cases stated below your personal data may be processed and the categories are defined by California law and represent the personal data that we have collected about California residents, and how it has been shared, over the past 12 months.

For details, please refer to the following explanations.

Visiting our Website

As soon as you visit our website, the company we have entrusted with the website’s operation will store the public IP address of the computer you are using to visit our website. This includes the access date and time. The IP address is a unique numeric address, through which your computer sends and receives data via the internet. Usually, neither we nor our service provider will know whom the IP address belongs to, unless you provide us with any data permitting us to identify you while using our website. Also, a user can be identified if we take legal action (in cases of cyber-attacks on our website, for instance) and are informed of the user’s identity during the process of investigation. So as a general rule, you will not have to worry we will be able to draw a connection between you and your IP address.

Our service provider is using the IP address to enable you to visit and use our website, and to discover and prevent attacks on our websites. Unfortunately, websites are attacked frequently, in order to harm the operators and users (for example blocking the access, spying on data, distributing malware like viruses or other illegal purposes). Such attacks would adversely affect our website’s intended use as well as the security of our website’s visitors. The IP address, along with the visit’s time, is being processed to prevent such attacks and potential dangers resulting from them for ourselves and for our website’s users. Via our service provider we are pursuing the justified interests of maintaining our business operations as well as of preventing unlawful interference affecting ourselves or our website’s visitors. The stored IP data will be deleted by de-personalization, provided they are no longer necessary for the purpose of identifying or preventing attacks.

We are using DDoS Mitigation to route traffic and scale attacks. Our service partner is Akamai which uses 20 global scrubbing centers around the world. Normally the traffic is routed within your country but for high availability it could be a cross border transfer. Akamai is certificated and committed to compliance with the laws in America, Europe and Asia and runs a data protection and privacy program to protect your personal data.

We will use this to pre-enter this location in your user profile, which you can change. This is done to ensure that the members of our service will use the correct location for local searches and thereby – unless they adapt the location – will find other members.

The data will be stored until the customer account is deleted. In cases in which we are obligated by law to store the data beyond this event (to fulfill accounting obligations, for instance), or if we are legally entitled to store the data beyond this event (in case of a current lawsuit against the user account owner, for instance), the data will be deleted as soon as the obligation or the legal authorization to store the data ceases to exist.
