3. Cookies

We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small files automatically created by your browser and stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website. Cookies do not cause any damage to your device and do not contain viruses, trojans, or other malware.

Information related to the specific device used is stored in the cookie. However, this does not mean that we gain direct knowledge of your identity.

The use of cookies serves, on the one hand, to make using our services more convenient for you. For example, we use session cookies to recognize that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted after leaving our site.

In addition, we use temporary cookies to optimize user-friendliness. These are stored on your device for a specified period. If you visit our website again, it will automatically be recognized that you have visited us before and which entries and settings you made so that you do not have to enter them again.

We also use cookies to statistically record the use of our website and evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing our services (see section 5). These cookies allow us to automatically recognize that you have visited our site before. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period.

The data processed by cookies is required for the stated purposes to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

Most browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or so that a message always appears before a new cookie is created. Complete deactivation of cookies may result in you not being able to use all functions of our website.

4. Analytics Tools

a) Tracking Tools

The tracking measures listed below and used by us are carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. With these tracking measures, we want to ensure a needs-based design and the continuous optimization of our website. We also use tracking measures to statistically record the use of our website and evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing our services. These interests are considered legitimate within the meaning of the aforementioned regulation.

The respective data processing purposes and data categories can be found in the corresponding tracking tools.

i) Webalizer

Our website uses the web analytics tool “Webalizer.” Analyzing user behavior is important because it enables us to evaluate demand for content and optimize our online offering accordingly.

In the version we use, “Webalizer” works with anonymized IP addresses. IP addresses are shortened by the last three digits before any analysis of usage behavior takes place, making personal identification impossible and ensuring that users remain anonymous to us.

The anonymized data sets are stored on our web server and evaluated internally for statistical purposes only. This data is not merged with other data sources, especially not with personal data. The data is never shared with third parties.

5. Social Media Plugins

Based on Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, we use social plugins from the social networks Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram on our website in order to increase awareness of our band. The underlying advertising purpose is considered a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR. Responsibility for data protection-compliant operation lies with the respective providers. We integrate these plugins using the so-called two-click method to provide the best possible protection for visitors to our website.

a) Facebook

Our website uses social media plugins from Facebook to make the use of our website more personal. We use the “LIKE” or “SHARE” button for this purpose.

When you access a page on our website containing such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook’s servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly by Facebook to your browser and integrated into the website.

Through the integration of the plugins, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not currently logged into Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.

If you are logged into Facebook, Facebook can directly associate your visit to our website with your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the “LIKE” or “SHARE” button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. Facebook may use this information for advertising, market research, and tailoring Facebook pages to user needs. Usage, interest, and relationship profiles are created for this purpose.

If you do not want Facebook to associate the data collected through our website with your Facebook account, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website.

Further information can be found in Facebook’s privacy policy:
https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/

b) YouTube

Some of our web pages embed YouTube videos. The operator of the corresponding plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When you visit a page containing a YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube servers is established. YouTube is informed about which pages you visit. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can personally associate your browsing behavior with you. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand.

When a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior.

Further information about data protection at YouTube can be found in the provider’s privacy policy:
