We process your data to manage the contractual relationship between you and us and to send you invitations, promotional materials, and information.

For all forms on our website, we collect only the personal data that is strictly necessary for the fulfillment of the contractual relationship or for your request for information. This information is marked with an asterisk.

The collection of data that is not strictly necessary but in which we are interested is optional. In this case, you decide on a voluntary basis whether and what data you wish to provide to us.

The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

3.2 Data Processing for Communication with You

In addition to your contract information, we process your contact information (address, phone number, email address) so that we can get in touch with you. The personal data you provide to us via email or through the contact form on our website (Berlin mondiale website URL) will be processed solely for the purpose of corresponding with you or for the specific purpose for which you provided the data to us.

The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

The data is processed on the basis of your consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. You may withdraw your consent at any time. The lawfulness of any data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

3.7 Cookies

The Jugendkultur.eu website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via a web browser.

Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain what is known as a cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier for the cookie. It consists of a string of characters that allows websites and servers to associate the cookie with the specific web browser in which it was stored. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the data subject’s individual browser from other web browsers that contain different cookies. A specific web browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.

By using cookies, the Berlin Mondiale website can provide users with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without cookies.

Cookies help us tailor the information and content on our website to the user’s needs. As mentioned earlier, cookies allow us to recognize users on our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to navigate our website.

This means that users of a website that uses cookies do not have to re-enter their login credentials every time they visit the site, as the website handles this automatically and the cookie is stored on the user’s computer.

The data subject may prevent our website from setting cookies at any time by adjusting the settings of the web browser being used, thereby permanently objecting to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common web browsers. If the data subject disables the setting of cookies in the web browser they are using, not all functions of our website may be fully usable under certain circumstances.

4. Categories of recipients of personal data

Your personal data will only be disclosed to third parties or otherwise transferred if this is necessary for the purpose of contract fulfillment or billing (e.g., disclosure of your name and address to sponsors), or if you have given your prior consent, or if there is a legal basis for such disclosure.

To the extent necessary for the performance of the contract, data will be disclosed to partner companies that have been engaged to assist in the performance of the contract.

Our partners are required to comply with and adhere to our privacy policy. Our partners are not permitted to use the data for any purpose other than fulfilling the terms of the contract.

In the case of partnerships where we act solely as an intermediary, your personal data will only be shared with the partner if this is necessary for the partner to enter into and fulfill the contract. Both the partner and we are obligated to comply with data protection regulations throughout the course of our collaboration. This obligation remains in effect even after the respective contract has ended.

5. Duration of data storage

As a general rule, we delete your data as soon as it is no longer required for the purposes mentioned above, unless temporary storage is still necessary. We store your data in accordance with legal documentation and retention requirements arising, among other things, from the German Commercial Code and the German Fiscal Code. The retention periods in such cases are up to ten full years. In addition, we retain your data for the period during which claims against our company may be asserted (statutory limitation period of three to thirty years).

6. Rights of Data Subjects/Information

In accordance with applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to request, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its source and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as the right to have this data corrected, restricted, or deleted, if applicable. For this and any other questions regarding personal data, you may contact us at any time using the contact information provided in Section 1.

You may also have the right to restrict the processing of your data and the right to receive the data you have provided in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

If you have given us your consent to process your personal data for specific purposes, you may withdraw your consent at any time with future effect.

If we process your data to protect our legitimate interests, you have the right to object to such processing on grounds relating to your particular situation.

Additional Privacy Policies

1. Content of the Website

The author assumes no liability for the timeliness, accuracy, completeness, or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against the author relating to material or immaterial damage caused by the use or non-use of the information provided, or by the use of incorrect or incomplete information, are generally excluded, unless there is evidence of willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the author. All offers are non-binding and subject to change. The author expressly reserves the right to change, supplement, or delete parts of the pages or the entire website without prior notice, or to discontinue publication temporarily or permanently.

2. References and Links

In the case of direct or indirect references to external websites ("hyperlinks") that lie outside the author’s area of responsibility, liability would arise only if the author were aware of the content and it were technically possible and reasonable for him to prevent use in the event of illegal content. The author hereby expressly declares that at the time the links were created, no illegal content was discernible on the linked pages. The author has no influence whatsoever on the current and future design, content, or authorship of the linked pages. Therefore, the author hereby expressly distances himself from all content on all linked pages that has been modified since the links were created. This statement applies to all links and references within the author’s own website, as well as to third-party entries in guestbooks, discussion forums, link directories, mailing lists, and all other forms of databases established by the author to which external writing access is possible. The provider of the page to which reference is made is solely liable for illegal, incorrect, or incomplete content and, in particular, for damages arising from the use or non-use of such information; not the party who merely refers to the respective publication via links.

3. Copyright and Trademark Law

The author makes every effort to ensure that the copyrights of the images, graphics, audio files, video clips, and text used in all publications are respected, to use images, graphics, audio files, video clips, and text created by the author, or to rely on royalty-free graphics, audio files, video clips, and text. All brand names and trademarks mentioned on this website and possibly protected by third parties are subject without restriction to the provisions of the applicable trademark law and the ownership rights of the respective registered owners. The mere mention of a trademark does not imply that it is not protected by the rights of third parties. The copyright for published objects created by the author remains solely with the author of the pages. Any reproduction or use of such graphics, audio files, video clips, and text in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without the express consent of the author.

4. Privacy Policy

Wherever the website offers the option to enter personal or business data (email addresses, names, addresses), the disclosure of such data by the user is expressly voluntary. The use and payment for all services offered is permitted—if and to the extent technically possible and reasonable—even without providing such data or by providing anonymized data or a pseudonym. The use by third parties of contact data published in the legal notice or similar sections—such as postal addresses, telephone and fax numbers, and email addresses—to send unsolicited information is not permitted. We expressly reserve the right to take legal action against senders of so-called spam emails in the event of violations of this prohibition.

5. Legal Validity of This Disclaimer

This disclaimer is to be considered part of the website from which this page was linked. Should any parts or individual provisions of this text not, no longer, or not fully comply with applicable law, the remaining parts of the document shall remain unaffected in terms of their content and validity.
