Privacy Policy for La Comba

Privacy and data protec­tion laws

La Comba takes the protec­tion of your personal data seriously and adheres strictly to all appli­cable data protec­tion laws. However, every transfer of data via the internet entails a poten­tial secu­rity risk that makes complete protec­tion from third-party access impos­sible. The legal basis for data protec­tion in Germany is mainly set out in the Bundes­da­ten­schutz­ge­setz (BDSG /​Federal Data Protec­tion Act) and Tele­me­di­en­ge­setz (TMG /​German Tele­ser­vices Act). The provi­sions described below provide you with infor­ma­tion in regard to the type, scope and purpose of captu­ring, usage and proces­sing of personal data by the provider:

Personal data

In accordance with appli­cable law, use of this website follows as a matter of prin­ciple without disclo­sure of the iden­tity of the visitor to the website. Personal data, such as name and email address, are only regis­tered if visi­tors to the website provide such data actively and of their own accord, as for example is the case when filling out a contact form. However, data transfer is not encrypted, making it impos­sible to abso­lutely exclude the possi­bi­lity of third parties gaining unaut­ho­rised know­ledge of such data. Personal data provided by visi­tors to the website will only be stored, processed or used for the purposes of proces­sing the request. Such data are not sold, leased or passed on to any third party. Data refer­ring to the user are captured only to the extent required for tech­nical purposes and are rendered anonymous.

La Comba will tempo­r­a­rily auto­ma­ti­cally store on its server infor­ma­tion from log files trans­mitted by the user’s browser. These include the type and version of the browser, opera­ting system used, referrer URL (the previously visited site), host­name of the computer acces­sing the site (IP Address), and date and time of server request. This data cannot be allo­cated to any specific person by the owner of the website. The data is not combined with data from other sources. It is also deleted follo­wing statis­tical evalua­tion Follo­wing the same prin­ciple, La Comba makes statis­tical infor­ma­tion available to the Verwer­tungs­ge­sell­schaft Wort (VG Wort). To this end, La Comba inte­grates so-called coun­ters in the texts so that authors on the website have access to their royal­ties from second utiliza­tion rights. Each counter consists of a tiny invi­sible diagram that is stored on the VG Wort server. It gives VG Wort the option of retrie­ving the above-mentioned statis­tical infor­ma­tion from all internet pages where such tracking pixels have been included. Other than that, the inac­tive diagram does not interact with visi­tors‹ personal data and does not provide any custo­mized information.

Cookies

La Comba uses cookies in several places they are needed. They serve to make our services more user-friendly, more effi­cient and safer. Cookies are small text files that are placed on the user’s computer and stored by the user’s browser, allo­wing La Comba to read this speci­fi­cally created brief piece of infor­ma­tion at a later time. The IP address stored in the cookies allows La Comba to draw conclu­sions about any earlier contact with the user, but does not in any way allow analysis of the user’s internal data. The use of cookies is normally limited to session cookies that are auto­ma­ti­cally deleted when the visit has ended. If cookies are stored until after a session has been closed, they can easily be deleted via specific browser func­tion­a­li­ties. Brow­sers can also be set to always reject cookies. This setting does, however, make the website less user friendly. Cookies do not cause damage to your computer and do not contain any viruses.
