Other data is collected automatically, or with your consent, by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is mainly technical data (e.g. internet browser, operating system, or time of page access). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter our website.

What do we use your data for?
Some of the data is collected to ensure the website is provided without errors. Other data may be used to analyse your user behaviour.

What rights do you have regarding your data?
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 can contact us at any time using the address given in the imprint if you have further questions on the subject of data protection. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

Analytics and third-party tools
When you visit our website, your browsing behaviour may be statistically analysed. This happens mainly through cookies and so-called analytics programs. The analysis of your browsing behaviour is usually carried out anonymously; the browsing behaviour cannot be traced back to you. You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools. Detailed information can be found in the privacy policy below.

2) General Information and Mandatory Notices

Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various pieces of personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Note on the Responsible Party

The party responsible for data processing on this website is:

Gong Space Mallorca • Matthias Dahms
Camí de Sa Barrala 236
07630 Campos

Phone: +34-601 922 044
Email: info (at) gongspacemallorca.com

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient for this. The legality of the data processing carried out until the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of a violation of data protection law, the data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection matters is the state data protection officer of the German federal state in which our company is headquartered.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

SSL/TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser line.

If SSL/TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, Blocking, Deletion

Within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time using the address given in the imprint if you have further questions on the subject of personal data.

Objection to Promotional Emails

We hereby object to the use of contact data published in the context of our imprint obligation for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information material. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of promotional information, for example through spam emails.

3) Data Collection on Our Website

Cookies

Our website partly uses so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognise your browser the next time you visit.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Cookies required for the electronic communication process or for the provision of certain functions you want (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are treated separately in this privacy policy.

Server Log Files

The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, which allows the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact Form

If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient for this. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you entered in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your enquiry has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions — in particular retention periods — remain unaffected.

4) Social Media

Sharing Content via Plugins (Facebook, Google+1, Twitter & Co.)

The content on our pages can be shared on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or Google+ in compliance with data protection law. This site uses a safe-sharing tool for this purpose. This tool only establishes direct contact between the networks and users once the user actively clicks on one of these buttons.

This tool does not automatically transmit user data to the operators of these platforms. If the user is logged in to one of the social networks, an information window will appear when using the social buttons of Facebook, Google+1, Twitter (X) & Co., in which the user can confirm the text before sending it.

Our users can share the content of this page on social networks in compliance with data protection law, without complete browsing profiles being created by the network operators.

Facebook Plugins (Like & Share Button)

Plugins of the social network Facebook, provider Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA, are integrated on our pages. You can recognise the Facebook plugins by the Facebook logo or the “Like” button on our page.

When you visit our pages, the plugin establishes a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook server. This gives Facebook the information that you have visited our page with your IP address. If you click the Facebook “Like” button while logged in to your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages to your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate your visit to our pages with your user account. Please note that, as the provider of these pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Facebook. Further information can be found in Facebook’s privacy policy at: https://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php.

If you do not want Facebook to associate your visit to our pages with your Facebook user account, please log out of your Facebook user account.

Twitter (X) Plugin

Functions of the Twitter service are integrated on our pages. These functions are offered by Twitter Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. By using Twitter and the “Re-Tweet” function, the websites you visit are linked to your Twitter account and made known to other users. Data is also transmitted to Twitter in this process. Please note that, as the provider of these pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Twitter. Further information can be found in Twitter’s privacy policy at: https://twitter.com/privacy.

You can change your privacy settings on Twitter in the account settings at https://twitter.com/account/settings.

Instagram Plugin

Our pages use functions of Instagram. The provider/data controller is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Meta”). Information on Instagram’s data protection can be found here: https://help.instagram.com/196883487377501?ref=dp

Collection and sharing of information: The Instagram button allows you to publish information worldwide. Through the Instagram button, you and other users receive personalised content from Meta and our partners. Meta stores both the information that you have liked content and information about the page you viewed when clicking Like. Your likes may be displayed as hints together with your profile name and photo in Meta services, such as your Instagram profile, or elsewhere on websites and advertisements on the internet.

Meta records information about your Instagram activities in order to improve Meta’s services for you and others. To use the Instagram button, you need a globally visible, public Instagram profile that must at least contain the name chosen for the profile. This name is used throughout all Instagram services and may, in some cases, replace another name you used when sharing content via your Instagram account. The identity of your Instagram profile may be displayed to users who know your email address or have other identifying information about you.

Use of collected information: In addition to the uses explained above, the information you provide is used in accordance with the applicable Meta privacy policy. Meta may publish aggregated statistics about users’ Instagram activities or share them with users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers or affiliated websites.

5) Analytics Tools and Advertising

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”. These are text files that are stored on your computer and that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

The storage of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise both its website and its advertising.

IP Anonymisation
We have activated the IP anonymisation function on this website. As a result, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area prior to transmission to the USA. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other data from Google.

Browser Plugin

You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google, as well as the processing of this data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

Objecting to Data Collection

More information on how Google Analytics handles user data can be found in Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

Data Processing Agreement

We have entered into a data processing agreement with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

This website uses Google Ads. Ads is an online advertising program of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).

As part of Google Ads, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an ad served by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. These cookies are small text files placed by the internet browser on the user’s computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification of users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognise that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.

Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of Ads customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that personally identifies users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by easily deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie via the user settings in your internet browser. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The storage of “conversion cookies” is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise both its website and its advertising. More information on Google Ads and Google conversion tracking can be found in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
