Privacy Policy

In the following, we provide information about the collection of

personal data when using

● our website talon.one

● our profiles in social media.

Personal data is any data that can be related to a specific natural

person, such as their name or IP address.

The controller within the meaning of Art. 4 para. 7 EU General Data

Protection Regulation (GDPR) is Talon.One GmbH, Wiener Strasse 10,

10999 Berlin, Germany, email: privacy@talon.one. We are legally

represented by Christoph Gerber; Sebastian Haas.

Our data protection officer can be reached via heyData GmbH,

Schützenstraße 5, 10117 Berlin, www.heydata.eu, E-Mail:

datenschutz@heydata.eu.

bases below. In principle, the following come into consideration as the

legal basis for data processing:

● Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. a GDPR serves as our legal basis for

processing operations for which we obtain consent.

● Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. b GDPR is the legal basis insofar as the

processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a

contract, e.g. if a site visitor purchases a product from us or we

perform a service for him. This legal basis also applies to

processing that is necessary for pre-contractual measures, such

as in the case of inquiries about our products or services.

● Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. c GDPR applies if we fulfill a legal obligation

by processing personal data, as may be the case, for example, in

tax law.

● Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis when we can

rely on legitimate interests to process personal data, e.g. for

cookies that are necessary for the technical operation of our

website.

Insofar as we transfer data to service providers or other third parties

outside the EEA, the security of the data during the transfer is

guaranteed by adequacy decisions of the EU Commission, insofar as

they exist (e.g. for Great Britain, Canada and Israel) (Art. 45 para. 3

GDPR).

4 /

In the case of data transfer to service providers in the USA, the legal

basis for the data transfer is an adequacy decision of the EU

Commission if the service provider has also certified itself under the EU

US Data Privacy Framework.

In other cases (e.g. if no adequacy decision exists), the legal basis for

the data transfer are usually, i.e. unless we indicate otherwise, standard

contractual clauses. These are a set of rules adopted by the EU

Commission and are part of the contract with the respective third party.

According to Art. 46 para. 2 lit. b GDPR, they ensure the security of the

data transfer. Many of the providers have given contractual guarantees

that go beyond the standard contractual clauses to protect the data.

These include, for example, guarantees regarding the encryption of

data or regarding an obligation on the part of the third party to notify

data subjects if law enforcement agencies wish to access the respective

data.

Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, the data stored by us will

be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for their intended

purpose and no legal obligations to retain data conflict with the

deletion. If the data are not deleted because they are required for other

and legally permissible purposes, their processing is restricted, i.e. the

data are blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies,

for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax law

reasons.

Data subjects have the following rights against us with regard to their

personal data:

● Right of access,

● Right to correction or deletion,

● Right to limit processing,

● Right to object to the processing,

● Right to data transferability,

● Right to revoke a given consent at any time.

Data subjects also have the right to complain to a data protection

supervisory authority about the processing of their personal data.

Contact details of the data protection supervisory authorities are

available at

https://www.bfdi.bund.de/EN/Service/Anschriften/Laender/Laender-

node.html.

Within the scope of the business or other relationship, customers,

prospective customers or third parties need to provide us with personal

data that is necessary for the establishment, execution and termination

of a business or other relationship or that we are legally obliged to

collect. Without this data, we will generally have to refuse to conclude

the contract or to provide a service or will no longer be able to perform

an existing contract or other relationship.

6 /

Mandatory data are marked as such.

As a matter of principle, we do not use a fully automated decision-

making process in accordance with article 22 GDPR to establish and

implement the business or other relationship. Should we use these

procedures in individual cases, we will inform of this separately if this is

required by law.

When contacting us, e.g. by e-mail or telephone, the data provided to

us (e.g. names and e-mail addresses) will be stored by us in order to

answer questions. The legal basis for the processing is our legitimate

interest (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR) to answer inquiries directed to us.

We delete the data accruing in this context after the storage is no

longer necessary or restrict the processing if there are legal retention

obligations.

Occasionally, we offer competitions via our website or in other ways.

We process the data requested in these competitions in order to

determine and notify the winners. Afterwards, we delete the data. It

may also be that we only offer competitions for existing customers. In

7 /

this case, we only process the name to determine the winners and the

contact data to notify the winners. It is our legitimate interest to offer

competitions to attract customers or to interact with our existing

customers. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f

GDPR.

From time to time, we conduct customer surveys to get to know our

customers and their wishes better. In doing so, we collect the data

requested in each case. It is our legitimate interest to get to know our

customers and their wishes better, so that the legal basis for the

associated data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit f GDPR. We delete the

data when the results of the surveys have been evaluated.

We reserve the right to inform customers who have already used

services from us or purchased goods from time to time by e-mail or

other means about our offers, if they have not objected to this. The

legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our

legitimate interest is to conduct direct advertising (recital 47 GDPR).

Customers can object to the use of their e-mail address for advertising

purposes at any time without incurring additional costs, for example via

the link at the end of each e-mail or by sending an e-mail to our above-

mentioned e-mail address.

8 /

Interested parties have the option to subscribe to a free newsletter. We

process the data provided during registration exclusively for sending

the newsletter. Subscription takes place by selecting the corresponding

field on our website, by ticking the corresponding field in a paper

document or by another clear action, whereby interested parties

declare their consent to the processing of their data, so that the legal

basis is Art. 6 para. p. 1 lit. a GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time,

e.g. by clicking the corresponding link in the newsletter or notifying our

e-mail address given above. The processing of the data until revocation

remains lawful even in the event of revocation.

Based on the consent of the recipients (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. a GDPR),

we also measure the opening and click-through rate of our newsletters

to understand what is relevant for our audience.

(Telekommunikation-Digitale-Dienste-Datenschutzgesetz,

website visitor's consent (Section 25 para. 1 TDDDG).

The subsequent data processing is carried out in accordance with the

following sections and on the basis of the provisions of the GDPR.

During the informative use of the website, i.e. when site visitors do not

separately transmit information to us, we collect the personal data that

the browser transmits to our server in order to ensure the stability and

basis is Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR.

● Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)

● Content of the request (specific page)

● Access status/HTTP status code

government agencies access the data.
