Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent that you have already given at any time. An informal message by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing that took place up until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
If the data is processed on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter e or f GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for reasons that arise from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this data protection declaration. If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims ( Objection according to Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR).

If you request the direct transfer of the data to another person responsible, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data.

If the processing of your personal data happened/is happening unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of being deleted.
If you have lodged an objection in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR, your interests and ours must be weighed up. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – apart from its storage – may only be used with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State are processed.
We hereby object to the use of contact data published as part of the imprint obligation to send unsolicited advertising and information material. The site operators expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising being sent, such as spam e-mails.
Some of the websites use so-called cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions you want (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analyzing your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are treated separately in this data protection declaration.
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
Browser type and browser version
operating system used
Referrer URL
Host name of the accessing computer
Time of server request
IP address.
This data is not merged with other data sources.
This data is collected on the basis of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of his website – the server log files must be recorded for this purpose.
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore exclusively based on your consent (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal message by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations that took place up until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your inquiry including all resulting personal data (name, enquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR if your request is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR) and / or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR), since we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing the inquiries addressed to us.
The data you sent to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”. These are text files that are stored on your computer and that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
The storage of Google Analytics cookies and the use of this analysis tool are based on Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.
IP anonymization
We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. As a result, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before it is transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
Browser plug-in
You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; we would like to point out to you however that in this case you will if applicable not be able to use all functions of this website in full. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading the browser plug-in available under the following link and Install: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de .
Objection against data collection
You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent your data from being collected on future visits to this website: Disable Google Analytics .
You can find more information on how Google Analytics handles user data in Google’s data protection declaration: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de .
Order processing
We have concluded an order processing contract with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.
Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics
This website uses the “demographic characteristics” function of Google Analytics. This allows reports to be created that contain statements about the age, gender and interests of the site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google and visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time via the ad settings in your Google account or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the point “Objection to data collection”.
Our websites use the functions of Google Analytics Remarketing in connection with the cross-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
This function makes it possible to link the advertising target groups created with Google Analytics Remarketing to the cross-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. In this way, interest-related, personalized advertising messages that have been adapted to you depending on your previous usage and surfing behavior on one end device (e.g. mobile phone) can also be displayed on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC).
If you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browser history to your Google account for this purpose. In this way, the same personalized advertising messages can be displayed on every device on which you log in with your Google account.
In support of this feature, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated user IDs, which are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create audiences for cross-device advertising.
You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by deactivating personalized advertising in your Google account; follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/ .
The summary of the recorded data in your Google account is based solely on your consent, which you can give or revoke with Google (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). In the case of data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g. because you do not have a Google account or have objected to the merger), the collection of data is based on Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest results from the fact that the website operator has an interest in the anonymous analysis of website visitors for advertising purposes.
Further information and the data protection regulations can be found in Google’s data protection declaration at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=de .
This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).
As part of Google AdWords, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is set. Cookies are small text files that the Internet browser stores on the user’s computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.
Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked through AdWords advertisers’ websites. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers find out the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified. If you do not wish to participate in the tracking, you can object to this use by easily deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie in your internet browser under user settings.
The storage of “conversion cookies” and the use of this tracking tool are based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.
You can find more information about Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking in Google’s data protection regulations: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de .
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we need an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data is not collected or only collected on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
The processing of the data entered in the newsletter registration form takes place exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you have stored with us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and deleted after you have canceled the newsletter. Data stored by us for other purposes remain unaffected.
Our website uses services provided by Zoho Corporation BV (Hoogoorddreef 15, 1101BA Amsterdam; abbreviated as “Zoho” in the further explanations). The following explains which services are included here and what significance they have for your personal data.
Zoho is committed to complying with European data protection regulations and is certified under the US-EU data protection agreement “Privacy Shield”. Further details can be found on the Zoho website at: https://www.zoho.com/de/privacy.html . In addition, we use the Zoho service “Campaigns” for newsletters (registration and dispatch).
By registering for our newsletter, you agree to the following explanations and to receiving the newsletter. These deal with the newsletter content and procedures regarding registration, dispatch, statistical analysis and the right to object.
Content of the newsletter
The sending of our newsletter, e-mails and other electronic notifications with advertising information (“newsletter” in these explanations) requires the consent of the recipient or legal permission. If the contents of a newsletter registration are specifically described, they are deemed to be decisive for the consent of the user concerned. Furthermore, information about offers, promotions, events as well as current reports and publications from SafeStart are part of our newsletter.
Double opt-in and logging
Registration for our newsletter is based on the so-called double opt-in procedure. After registration, this requires a confirmation of this registration, which is sent via e-mail. This prevents the user from registering third-party e-mail addresses. To ensure that the registration can be proven in accordance with the legal requirements, the newsletter registrations are logged. The data recorded in this way includes the time of registration, the time of confirmation and the IP address. It also logs changes made to data stored at Zoho Campaigns.
Zoho Campaigns
Zoho uses the personal data to send and evaluate the newsletter on our behalf. According to its own information, Zoho can also use the stored data to optimize or improve its own services, for example to technically optimize the dispatch, improve the newsletter display or to evaluate the country from which the recipients come (economic purposes ). However, this use does not include contacting our newsletter recipients themselves or passing on their data to third parties.
SafeStart is convinced of the reliability, IT security, data security and trustworthiness of Zoho. Therefore, we have concluded a so-called data processing agreement with Zoho. This contractually stipulates that Zoho is obliged to protect the data of our users and expressly not to pass it on to third parties. For more information, see Zoho’s privacy policy at: https://www.zoho.com/de/privacy.html .
Evaluations, statistical surveys and analyses
When the newsletter is opened, a so-called “web beacon”, which is contained in the newsletter, is retrieved from the corresponding Zoho server. This is a pixel-sized file that collects some information when it is accessed (technical information, information on the browser used and the user’s system, IP address, time of access). The collection of this information serves to improve the services technically (technical data) and to better understand target groups, reading behavior, access times and retrieval locations (IP address). Information about whether and when the newsletter is opened and which links are clicked on is also statistically recorded. These technical data make it possible to assign this individual information to the respective recipients of the newsletter. However, such assignment and user monitoring is neither in our interest nor in that of Zoho. The aim of these surveys is exclusively to optimize our offer for the reading habits of our newsletter recipients and to select newsletter content that suits the user’s interests.
Online retrieval and data management
Some links included in our newsletters direct our newsletter recipients to Zoho websites. This includes, for example, those links to the web view in the browser or to access the newsletter online, for example to avoid software-related display problems, for example in the e-mail program. In addition, the newsletter recipients have the option of editing and correcting the data they have entered, such as their e-mail address. Furthermore, Zoho’s privacy policy (see above) can only be viewed on their website. It should be noted here that Zoho also uses cookies on its websites. As a result, personal data is processed (by Zoho itself, partners and service providers of Zoho, for example Google services). We have no influence on this collection and processing of the data.https://www.zoho.com/de/privacy.html .
Termination/Revocation
By revoking your consent, you have the option of unsubscribing or terminating our newsletter and receipt at any time. A corresponding cancellation link is an integral part of the newsletter and is located at the end. In addition, you can also send an email to kontakt (at) ssi.safestart.com without giving reasons and object to receiving the newsletter in this way. All of the data you have entered will then be deleted from the system, with the exception of your e-mail address. Your e-mail address will be stored in a so-called blacklist to ensure that no further newsletters are sent to your e-mail address.
Legal bases GDPR
The following information is based on the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which has been in effect since May 25, 2018.
The consent to the newsletter being sent to the e-mail addresses is given on the basis of Article 6, Paragraph 1 lit. a, 7 GDPR and Article 7 Paragraph 2, No. 3 or Paragraph 3 UWG.
On the basis of our legitimate interest (Article 6, paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR), we commission the newsletter shipping service provider Zoho to carry out statistical surveys and analyzes and to log the registration process. SafeStart’s interest relates to our efforts to use a user-friendly and secure newsletter system. This use serves our business interests on the one hand and the expectations of our users who subscribe to our newsletter on the other.
Furthermore, the notice applies that you have the right to object to the future processing of your personal data. This right is based on Article 21 GDPR and relates in particular to the processing of your personal data for advertising purposes, in particular direct mail.
