This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Using Zoho Campaigns, we can analyse our newsletter campaigns, e.g. whether a newsletter message has been opened and which links have been clicked. This allows us to determine, among other things, which links were clicked particularly frequently.
Furthermore, we can recognise whether certain predefined actions were carried out after opening/clicking (conversion rate). For example, we can recognise whether you made a purchase after clicking on the newsletter. If you do not want analysis by Zoho Campaigns, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message. Zoho Campaigns also enables us to categorise newsletter recipients into different categories ("clusters"). Newsletter recipients can be categorised, for example, by age, gender or place of residence. In this way, newsletters can be better tailored to the respective target groups. If you do not want analysis by Zoho Campaigns, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message.

Bewaartermijn
The data you store for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be kept by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter or the newsletter service provider and will be deleted from the newsletter list after unsubscription or once the purpose has been fulfilled. We reserve the right to delete or block email addresses from our newsletter list at our own discretion within the scope of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected.
After you unsubscribe from the newsletter list, your email address may be stored on a blacklist by us or the newsletter service provider if this is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist is used exclusively for this purpose and is not merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Storage on the blacklist is not limited in time. You may object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

In addition, after starting a video, YouTube may store various cookies or comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device fingerprinting) on your device.
