This concerns newsletters promoting products similar to those which you purchased through our webshop and customer satisfaction surveys. We select products for personalized recommendations in accordance with the statutory requirements and in particular on the basis of your previous purchasing history and information on your interests. From this, we determine your interest in specific products, taking into account any information you may have communicated to us regarding your interests and preferences.

For these analyses we combine data or parts thereof which are mentioned above under 2.1 of this Privacy Policy as well as the web beacons with your e-mail address and an individual ID. Even the links included in the Newsletter have this ID. With the data obtained in this manner, we create a user profile that allows us to tailor the Newsletter in order to better address the interests of our customers. In doing so, we record when you read our Newsletters, the links that you click on and thus deduce your personal interests. We in turn link such data with your actions on our website.

Our legitimate interest in processing data as part of tracking is our desire to tailor the Newsletter in order to better address the interests of our customers.

You can object to the aforementioned tracking at any time by clicking on the respective unsubscribe link provided in each Newsletter e-mail or by sending an e-mail to the contact information mentioned above under 1.1 of this Privacy Policy. The information obtained through tracking will be stored until you have unsubscribed from the Newsletter. After unsubscribing we store the data anonymously purely for statistical purposes.

(5) Tracking is moreover not possible if you have by default turned off the display of images in your e-mail client. In such case, you will not be able to see the Newsletter in its entirety and you may not be able to use all features of the Newsletter. Manually unblocking the display of images activates the above-described tracking.
