Newsletter
The website provider gives information on individual offers using this newsletter.
If users of this website would like to receive the newsletter, your name and an e-mail address are required. The e-mail address will only be used if the user has expressly consented pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR. This e-mail address will be checked to see if the user is also the owner/authorised user of the e-mail address. The data will only be used for sending the newsletter and will not be transferred to third parties. No other data is collected.
When registering to receive the newsletter, the IP address and the date of registration are stored. The storage serves exclusively as security in the event that a third party has misused the address and has registered for the newsletter without the knowledge of the owner or authorised person.
The consent to the storage of the data and its use can be revoked at any time via a link in the newsletter itself, in the profile area or by notification to the above-mentioned contact options or by e-mail to direktmarketing@conventus.de.
Newsletter tracking
The newsletters of Conventus Congressmanagement & Marketing GmbH contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a component that can be embedded in sent emails to enable anonymised recording and analysis in a log file. By means of an embedded tracking pixel, we can see whether and when an email has been opened and which links it contains have been called up by data subjects. The anonymised data storage and analysis enables Conventus Congressmanagement & Marketing GmbH to statistically evaluate the success or failure of online marketing campaigns in order to optimise newsletter mailings.
This anonymised data may be passed on to third parties for the purpose of measuring the success of a newsletter mailing and for the fulfilment of contracts.
You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the link provided in the newsletter or directly at www.conventus.de/en/unsubscribe-from-mailing-list/unsubscribe-e-mail/.
