Integration Of Services and Contents of Third Parties
We use within our online offer on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR), content or services offered by third-party providers in order to integrate their content and services. This always requires that the third-party providers of this content are aware of your IP address, since the content or service could not send to your browser without the IP address. The IP address is thus required for the display of this content, and we endeavour to use providers that only use your IP address for the delivery of the content or services. However, Third-party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as “web beacons”) for statistical or marketing purposes. The “pixel tags” can be used to evaluate information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on the user’s device and may contain, among other things, technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, time of visit and other information about the use of our online offer, as well as be linked to such information from other sources.

Deletion Of Data and Storage Period
Your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies. This is generally the case after the purpose of the data processing has ceased to exist. In addition, data may be stored if this has been provided for by the legislator in regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

Who is the recipient of data? To whom is your data disclosed?
Data is only disclosed to third parties if there is a legal basis for the processing. For example, we disclose personal data to persons or companies that act as processors for us in accordance with Art. 28 of the GDPR. A processor is anyone who processes personal data on our behalf, i.e., in particular in an instruction and control relationship with us. In accordance with the requirements of the GDPR, we conclude a contract with each of our processors to oblige them to comply with data protection regulations and thus to provide your data with comprehensive protection.

What security measures have we taken to protect your data?
The data we collect from you may be stored, with appropriate technical and organisational security measures applied to it, on our servers. In all cases, we follow generally high data protection standards and advanced security measures to protect the personal data submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.

Hosting
The services for hosting and displaying the App and website are partly provided by our service provider as part of processing on our behalf.

If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our relationship with them, please contact us.

Content Delivery Network
For the purpose of a shorter loading time, we use a so-called Content Delivery Network (“CDN”). With this service, content, e.g., large media files, are delivered via regionally distributed servers of external CDN service providers. Therefore, access data is processed on the servers of the service providers. Our service providers work for us within the framework of order processing. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please contact us.

Zoom
The “Zoom” tool is used to conduct learning sessions, online meetings and/or webinars (hereinafter: “online meetings”). “Zoom” is a service provided by Zoom Video Communications, Inc. which is based in the USA.

Insofar as you call up the website of “Zoom”, the provider of “Zoom” is responsible for data processing. However, accessing the website is only necessary to use “Zoom” in order to download the software for using “Zoom”. You can also use “Zoom” if you enter the respective meeting ID and, if applicable, further access data for the meeting directly in the “Zoom” app. If you do not want to or cannot use the “Zoom” app, the basic functions can also be used via a browser version, which you can find on the “Zoom” website.

When using Zoom, the user information listed below may be collected. The scope of the data also depends on the data you provide before or during participation in an “online meeting”.

The following personal data are subject to processing:

User information: first name, last name, telephone (optional), e-mail address, password (if “single sign-on” is not used), profile picture (optional), department (optional).
Meeting metadata: Topic, description (optional), participant IP addresses, device/hardware information.
For recordings (optional): MP4 file of all video, audio and presentation recordings, M4A file of all audio recordings, text file of the online meeting chat.
For dial-in with the telephone: information on the incoming and outgoing call number, country name, start and end time. If necessary, further connection data such as the IP address of the device can be stored.
Text, audio and video data: You may have the opportunity to use the chat, question or survey functions in an “online meeting”. In this respect, the text entries you make are processed in order to display them in the “online meeting” and, if necessary, to record them. In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your terminal device and from any video camera of the terminal device are processed accordingly during the meeting. You can switch off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time via the “Zoom” applications.

To participate in an “online meeting” or to enter the “meeting room”, you must at least provide information about your name. If you are registered as a user at “Zoom”, then reports on “online meetings” can be stored at “Zoom” for up to one month.

Social Media
Social Media Presences
We maintain online presences on the basis of our legitimate interests. We maintain online presences within social networks and platforms in order to communicate with customers, interested parties and users who are active there. Unless otherwise stated in this policy, we process the data of users if they communicate with us within the social networks and platforms, e.g., write articles on our online presences or send us messages.

Social Media Plugins
Social media plugins normally result in every visitor to a page being immediately recorded by these services with their IP address and their further browsing behaviour being logged. This can happen even if you do not click the button.

To prevent this, we use the Shariff method. This means that our social media buttons only establish direct contact between the social network and you when you click on the respective share button. If you are already logged in to a social network, this is done without another window for Facebook. On Twitter, a pop-up window appears in which you can still edit the text of the tweet.

You can thus publish our content on social networks without them being able to create complete surf profiles. The Shariff method is already used by many web sites to protect their users.

But at the latest when you call up the social media platform, your data will be processed there. The social media platform will usually store cookies on your device or even save your usage behaviour to your account, especially if you are logged in yourself. The social media platform can use your data to analyse your user behaviour and use it for (interest-based) advertising. This may result in advertisements being displayed to you inside and outside the social media platform.

Social Media Links
We refer to our offered social media presences with links. Unlike social media plugins, links do not lead to the social media platform finding out about your visit when you call up our site. However, like any link, they will lead to your data being processed by the social media platform at the latest when you click on the link. As a rule, the social media platform will save cookies on your device or even save your usage behaviour to your account, especially if you are logged in yourself. The social media platform can use your data to analyse your user behaviour and use it for (interest-based) advertising. This may result in advertisements being displayed to you inside and outside the social media platform.

Changes to this privacy policy
DJ Near Me may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Such changes will be displayed on the DJ Near Me website or within the DJ Near Me app.

If you send us enquiries, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact data you have provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent. The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b of the GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been requested. The data you provide to us will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after we have completed processing your enquiry). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Live Chat

(Olark), for the purpose of web analytics and to operate the live chat system used to respond to live support requests. Usage profiles can be created from this anonymised data under a pseudonym.

Additions for the DJ Near Me app

Downloading the app
We have no influence on and are not responsible for the collection of data required to download the app from the app store, e.g., username, email address and customer number of your account and time of download. When using the app, we collect data for support purposes (device name, device type, OS model information).

Push notifications
In the settings of your device, you can confirm whether you want to receive news via push notification, even if you are not actively using our app at the moment or the device is in idle mode.

You can switch this function on or off at any time later in the settings of your mobile device. The delivery of push notifications takes place with the help of servers that are provided by the manufacturers of the operating systems. The mobile devices must therefore be registered with these servers, which requires the transmission of a UUID (iOS) or the device ID assigned to the device (Android).

The legal basis here results from Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b GDPR for the provision of our services based on the request you have made, as well as from our legitimate interest, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Creating and editing a profile
A user profile will be created for you based on the information you provide during the sign up. Your Email, Name, Phone number, Country. You have the option of adjusting, changing, or deleting the information in your profile to edit within the app or by contacting our team.

The data processing carried out in this context is necessary in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. b GDPR to provide our service on the basis of the requests made by you. The data processing is also based on a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, as our interest in providing users with a platform for exchanging information with other users does not conflict with any overriding interest or right of yours. It should be noted that the majority of the data you provide is voluntary.

Contacting us
You have the possibility to contact us via the corresponding button and to send us questions and suggestions. Contacting us is done by sending an email via the app responsible for this on your device. When sending an e-mail, your e-mail and the content of your message will inevitably be communicated to us, and your e-mail will be stored on our servers. This data processing is necessary to make contacting us by e-mail technically possible at all and to make the e-mail retrievable for us. The data processing in this context is thus based on a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1S. 1 lit. f GDPR, which is not opposed by any overriding interest or right of the data subject. Furthermore, the data processing is necessary to enable this function, so that the data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Firebase
The App uses the Firebase tool, which is part of the Firebase platform of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, to obtain statistics on how the App is used, in particular active user numbers, session length, stability rating and storage time. Answers logs the use of the app, and we evaluate user behaviour and user activity in general, i.e. not on a personal basis.

For this purpose, the following data is transferred to the Analytics Engine: name and AppStore ID, build version, individual device installation key (e.g. IDFA [iOS], Advertising ID, and Android ID), timestamp, device model, device name, device operating system name and version numbers, the language and country settings of the device (iOS), the number of CPU cores on the device (iOS), whether a device has the status “jailbreak” (iOS) or “root ” (Android), app lifecycle events (iOS) and app activities (Android);

The legal basis for data processing is our legitimate interest. In the settings under data services, you can select whether you want to send crash reports or not. This setting also applies to the use of Google.

Authorisations and Access
We may request access or permission to certain functions from your mobile device. The legal basis for data processing is our legitimate interest and the provision of contractual or pre-contractual measures.
