SECTION 2 – What do we do with your information?
2.1 Acquisition, processing and utilization of person-specific data
Person-specific data describes details relating to the actual or personal relationships of a specific or identifiable natural person. Such details include, for example, your e-mail, name, your telephone number, your address, and all existing data that you disclose to us during registration, when sending an inquiry or when contacting us. We collect, store and process your data for the entire processing of your inquiry or when you browse our store. Your person-specific data is only passed on to third parties to the extent that this is legally permissible, including the purpose of processing the contract or for invoicing, for marketing or if you have previously consented to this.

2.2 Use of your data for advertising purposes
Apart from the processing of your data for settlement of your inquiry, we also use your data for the following purposes: to communicate with you about your inquiry, and about certain services or marketing campaigns; and to recommend services that might interest you. To this end we use the information available, such as confirmations of receipts and reading confirmation of e-mails, information on the terminal device used by you, your connection to the internet, operating system and platform, date and time of the visit to the home page, or services that you have looked at, as well as information that we have received from you (including automatically transferred or generated information).

2.2.1 Newsletter
For sending the newsletter we make use of the e-mail address given by you and for this we need your confirmation that, as the owner of the e-mail address, you consent to its receipt. Should you later decide that you no longer want to receive a newsletter from us, you can object to this at any time without thereby incurring any other costs than the transmission costs in keeping with the basic tariffs. Notification in text form sent by one of the contact options given under point 1 (e.g. e-mail, fax, letter) is sufficient for this purpose. There is, of course, also a cancellation link in every newsletter.

2.2.2 Banner Ads
We also use the data collected during your visit to show you so-called banner ads. These are advertisements which we also use on third sites. It usually involves the use of so-called cookies or pixels. Our aim here is to make the advertising offers more useful and more interesting for you, which is why you will see, in the context of the banner ads, mainly services that you have either already looked at on our site or services that are similar to those already looked at by you (so-called re-targeting). Within the framework of the banner ads we work solely with pseudonymous data; clear-text information relating to your person (e.g. your name or your e-mail address) is not used in the cookies. You can find more information on cookies, pixels and re-targeting under Section 8 of this policy statement.

SECTION 3 – Consent
When you provide us with personal information to send an inquiry, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only. If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no. If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw at any time your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, to utilize your person-specific data for advertising purposes, whether all-in-all or as regards individual measures, by contacting us at info{at}white-consulting.co or mailing us at: White Marketing GmbH, Gleimstrasse 43, 10437 Berlin.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. As an example, if you are located in Europe and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.
