This website uses the visitor action pixel from Facebook for conversion measurement. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. However, according to Facebook, the data collected is also transferred to the US and other third countries.

In this way, the behaviour of page visitors can be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This allows the effectiveness of the Facebook ads to be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising measures to be optimized.

The collected data is anonymous for us as the operator of this website, we can not draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook, so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes, according to the Facebook data use policy.

5. Plugins and tools

a) YouTube with extended data protection

This website embeds videos from the website YouTube. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode means that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, the transfer of data to YouTube partners is not necessarily excluded by the extended data protection mode. Thus, YouTube - regardless of whether you watch a video - establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Furthermore, after starting a video, YouTube may store various cookies on your end device or use comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device fingerprinting). In this way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve the user experience, and prevent fraud attempts.

If necessary, further data processing operations may be triggered after the start of a YouTube video, over which we have no control.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Insofar as a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

You can find more information about data protection at YouTube in their privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

b) Spotify

On our website functions of the music service Spotify are integrated. The provider is Spotify AB, Birger Jarlsgatan 61, 113 56 Stockholm in Sweden. You can recognize the Spotify plugins by the green logo on this website. You can find an overview of the Spotify plugins at: https://developer.spotify.com.

This means that when you visit our website, a direct connection can be established between your browser and the Spotify server via the plugin. Spotify thereby receives the information that you have visited this website with your IP address. If you click the Spotify button while logged into your Spotify account, you can link the content of this website on your Spotify profile. This allows Spotify to associate your visit to this website with your user account.

We would like to point out that cookies from Google Analytics are used when using Spotify, so that your usage data can also be passed on to Google when using Spotify. Google Analytics is a tool of the Google Group for the analysis of user behaviour based in the USA. Spotify is solely responsible for this integration. We as the website operator have no influence on this processing.

The storage and data analysis through Spotify is based on Art. 6 para.1 lit. a GDPR. Your consent is given via ConsentManager (see point 3. b) (2) ConsentManager) and can be revoked by you at any time.

For more information, please see Spotify's privacy policy: https://www.spotify.com/de/legal/privacy-policy/.

If you do not want Spotify to associate your visit to this website with your Spotify user account, please log out of your Spotify user account.

Brevo

This website uses Brevo for the sending of newsletters. The provider is the Sendinblue GmbH, Köpenicker Straße 126, 10179 Berlin, Germany.

Brevo services can, among other things, be used to organize and analyze the sending of newsletters. The data you enter for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter are archived on servers of Sendinblue GmbH in Germany.

Data analysis by Brevo

Brevo enables us to analyze our newsletter campaigns. For instance, it allows us to see whether a newsletter message has been opened and, if so, which links may have been clicked. This enables us to determine, which links drew an extraordinary number of clicks.

Moreover, we are also able to see whether once the e-mail was opened or a link was clicked, any previously defined actions were taken (conversion rate). This allows us to determine whether you have made a purchase after clicking on the newsletter.

Brevo also enables us to divide the subscribers to our newsletter into various categories (i.e., to “cluster” recipients). For instance, newsletter recipients can be categorized based on age, gender, or place of residence. This enables us to tailor our newsletter more effectively to the needs of the respective target groups.

If you do not want to permit an analysis by Brevo, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a link for you to do this in every newsletter message. Moreover, you can also unsubscribe from the newsletter right on the website.

Data stored for other purposes with us remain unaffected.

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist, if such action is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist is used only for this purpose and not merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with the legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). The storage in the blacklist is indefinite. You may object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

For more details, please consult the Data Protection Regulations of Brevo at: https://www.brevo.com/de/datenschutz-uebersicht/ and https://www.brevo.com/de/legal/privacypolicy/.

Data processing

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract mandated by data privacy laws that guarantees that they process personal data of our website visitors only based on our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

We use the instant messaging service WhatsApp on our website to offer you another way to contact us and keep you up to date with festival news.

The provider is WhatsApp Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland.

Reason for offering this service is that WhatsApp is the most widely used messaging tool. Despite we would like to point out that it has faced criticism in the past as a META company regarding data protection.

In order to address this criticism and still being able to use WhatsApp, we have decided to use the WhatsApp Business API as a technical interface: This way, your personal data is not stored by WhatsApp itself, but by our business solution provider hellomateo, with whom we have concluded a data processing agreement that ensures that personal data may only be processed on our instructions.

The provider is Mateo Estate GmbH, 14467 Potsdam. You can find the data protection information at https://www.hellomateo.de/datenschutz.

The Cloud API is hosted in Germany, and META has no access to the content of your messages. The messages are only stored in the Cloud API for a short time before being forwarded in encrypted form.

The processing is based on our legitimate interest in making it easy for you to contact us (Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR); your consent pursuant to Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR, and, if applicable, the fulfillment of our contract or the implementation of pre-contractual measures with you pursuant to Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR.

c. Facebook-/Instagram-Messaging and E-Mais via hellomateo

In order to respond to your emails and messages on social media channels more efficiently, we have decided to use hellomateo for this purpose as well.

The provider is Mateo Estate GmbH, 14467 Potsdam. You can find the privacy policy at https://www.hellomateo.de/datenschutz.

The processing is based on our legitimate interest in making it easier to contact you (Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR). We have concluded a data processing agreement with hellomateo, which ensures that personal data may only be processed on our instructions.

7. Cashless payment at festivals

Only cashless transactions for payments are possible at our festivals. To offer this service, we use „GET“, a cashless payment tool from Global Event Technologies GmbH & CO KG, Neualmerstraße 37, 5400 Hallein, Austria.

A link on our website will take you directly to GET. You can register on GET´s website with the number of your festival ticket and, if you enter your payment details, transfer money on your chip for payments. The chip itself will be given to you at the festival. The registration with GET and the processing of your personal data is voluntary and is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para.1 lit. a GDPR. For this purpose we have concluded a data processing agreement with GET.

When registering via GET, your personal data may be transferred to the US. Further information on data processing at GET can be found in their data protection information: https://www.get.systems/privacy-policy/.

It is also possible to transfer money on your chip without registering with GET. This can be done directly at the festival in form of a cash deposit at one of our information stands. This option allows you to use our cashless payment function without providing personal data. However, a refund of unused credit requires a registration via GET. This is based on our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para.1 lit. f GDPR to offer refunds as efficiently as possible.

8. Surveys and registration via Typeform

We use the Typeform tool for surveys. The provider is TYPEFORM, S.L., Augusta 29–31, 08006 – Barcelona (Spain).

We use this tool for various purposes:

We would like to receive your feedback in order to continuously improve our products, services, and your customer satisfaction.

We do not collect any personal data for this purpose; however, the processing of technical information may be necessary to ensure the provision, security, and functionality of the service.

In such cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR in providing the service securely and without disruption.

If you participate in occasional sweepstakes, we need your email address for processing purposes. The processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Your data is processed exclusively for the purposes stated above.

Typeform processes personal data on our behalf as a data processor in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR and does not use this data for its own purposes.

For more information on the processing of personal data by Typeform, please see the privacy policy at https://admin.typeform.com/to/dwk6gt

To the extent that personal data is processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area in connection with the use of Typeform, Typeform states that it provides appropriate safeguards for international data transfers. These include, in particular, the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as well as supplementary security measures, where necessary.

We store the collected personal data only for as long as is necessary to conduct and evaluate the customer survey or as required by statutory retention obligations. Once the purpose of processing no longer applies, the data will be deleted or anonymized.

9. Social media

a) General information

Our social media presences are intended to ensure the broadest possible presence on the Internet. We want to communicate with our visitors and inform them about events and news. The specific media portals used are listed under the following points.

Social networks such as Facebook, Instagram, etc. can generally analyze your user behavior comprehensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous processing operations relevant to data protection. In detail:

If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected under certain circumstances if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, this data is collected, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.

With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you inside and outside the respective social media presence. If you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are logged in or have been logged in.

Please also note that we don’t have knowledge of all processing on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. Details on this can be found in the terms of use and privacy policies of the respective social media portals.

Legal basis

Our social media presences are intended to ensure the most comprehensive presence possible on the Internet. This is a legitimate interest of ours within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on deviating legal bases to be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).

Joint Controller and assertion of rights

If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), we are jointly responsible with the operators of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights (information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both against us and against the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. against Facebook).

Please note that despite the joint responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence on the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider.

Storage period

The data collected directly by us via the social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

We have no influence on the storage period of your data, which is stored by the operators of social networks for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).

Your rights

You have the right at any time to receive information free of charge about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have the right to object, data portability and the right to complain to the competent supervisory authority. Furthermore, you can demand the correction, blocking, deletion and, under certain circumstances, the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

b) Facebook Fanpage

Our Facebook page uses the services of Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Meta").

Facebook and we are jointly responsible for the processing of this data according to Art. 26 GDPR. Therefore, we have entered into a joint processing agreement (Joint Controller Addendum) with Meta.

The agreement is limited exclusively to the collection of the data and its forwarding to Facebook. Processing that takes place after the onward transfer by Facebook is not part of the joint responsibility.

We use the statistics function to learn more about the visitors to our profile. Demographic and statistical data in the context of so-called "Insights" data help us to adapt our content to the respective target group. This is aggregated data for us, a personal reference is not possible for us.

Instagram and we are jointly responsible for the processing of this data in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. Therefore, we have concluded a joint processing agreement (Joint Controller Addendum) with Meta.

The agreement is limited exclusively to the collection of the data and its forwarding to Facebook.

10. Transfer of personal data

a) Legal basis

We will only pass on your personal data to third parties if this is necessary to achieve our purposes and at least one of the following legal bases exists:

· you have expressly given your consent to this in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR,

· this is legally permissible and necessary for the processing of contractual relationships according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR,

· in the event that a legal obligation exists for the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit c. GDPR, as well as

· the transfer according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR is necessary to protect our legitimate interests, unless your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms, which require the protection of your personal data, prevail.

b) Data transfer to the USA

We largely, but not exclusively, rely on service providers located within the EU/EEA or a third country for which the European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision within the meaning of Art. 45 of the GDPR. Even in the case of service providers based within the EU/EEA, however, we cannot guarantee in individual cases that they will store or process your data exclusively on servers in countries where a level of protection comparable to that in the EU/EEA prevails.

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in the USA. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these third countries and processed there. We note that the European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision for the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (successor to the "Privacy Shield"). The decision states that the United States will ensure an adequate level of protection - comparable to that of the European Union - for personal data transferred from the EU to U.S. companies within the new framework. Based on this sectoral adequacy decision, personal data can be transferred securely from the EU to U.S. companies participating in the framework ("Data Privacy Framework") without having to implement additional data protection safeguards. To participate, companies must have certified themselves with the U.S. Department of Commerce. If they have not done so, the adequacy decision does not serve as a basis for secure data transmission. In these cases, we enter into Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) with the service providers. By concluding standard contractual clauses within the meaning of Art. 46 para. 1 lit.c GDPR, we provide guarantees for the protection of your data.

In addition, we encrypt or pseudonymize personal data before transferring it to a service provider in a third country, if this is technically possible and appropriate.

11. Data subject rights

You have the right to,

· to request information about your personal data processed by us in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR. In particular, you can request information about the processing purposes, the category of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right of complaint, the origin of your data if it has not been collected by us, as well as the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling and, if applicable, meaningful information about its details;

· in accordance with Art. 16 GDPR, to immediately request the correction of incorrect or completion of your personal data stored by us;

· pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR, to request the erasure of your personal data stored by us, unless the processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims;

· in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data, insofar as the accuracy of the data is disputed by you, the processing is unlawful, but you object to its erasure and we no longer require the data, but you need it for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or you have objected to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR;

· pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR, to receive your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request that it be transferred to another controller;

· in accordance with Art. 7 para.3 GDPR, to revoke your consent given to us at any time. This has the consequence that we may no longer continue the data processing based on this consent in the future; and

· complain to a supervisory authority in accordance with Art. 77 GDPR. Usually you can contact the supervisory authority of your usual place of residence or workplace or our company headquarters for this purpose.

12. Right of objection

If your personal data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para.1 lit. f GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR, provided that there are grounds for doing so that arise from your particular situation or the objection is directed against direct advertising. In the latter case, you have a general right of objection, which is implemented by us without specifying a particular reason.

If you wish to exercise your right to object, simply send an e-mail to datenschutz@eventimpresents.com.

13. Data security

Within the website visit, we use the widespread SSL procedure (Secure Socket Layer) in connection with the highest encryption level supported by your browser. As a rule, this is a 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we use 128-bit v3 technology instead. You can tell whether an individual page of our website is encrypted when you see the closed key or lock symbol in the lower status bar of your browser.

We also use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or against unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

14. Modification of this privacy policy

This privacy policy is currently valid and is dated August 2026.

Due to the further development of our website and offers on it or due to changed legal or regulatory requirements, it may become necessary to change this privacy policy. The current data protection declaration can be accessed and printed out by you at any time on the website at https://www.rock-im-park.com/en/privacy.
