Additional features and services offered by our website

(1) In addition to purely informational use of our website, we offer various services that you can use if you are interested. For this, you will generally need to provide additional personal information that we will use to provide the respective service and to which the aforementioned data-processing principles will apply.

(2) In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. These providers have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions and are regularly inspected.

(3) Furthermore, we may disclose your personal data to third parties, if we offer participation in sales campaigns, the conclusion of contracts or similar services in conjunction with partners. You will be provided with further relevant information when entering your personal data or below in the description of the service.

Opposition to or revocation in respect of the processing of your data

(1) If you have consented to the processing of your data, you may revoke this consent at any time. This will affect the legitimacy of the processing of your personal data after you have pronounced such revocation to us.

(2) Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on a balancing of interests, you may object to the processing. This applies if, in particular, processing is not required in order to fulfill a contract with you, which we describe in each case in the description of functions below. If you make such an objection, we will ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data in the way we have done. If your objection is justified, we will review the situation and will either discontinue or adapt the data processing, or inform you of our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue to process your data.

(3) You may of course object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes at any time. You can inform us about your objection to advertising by contacting us as follows: request@baramundi.com

Use of the baramundi Forum

(1) Our forum can only be read if you are registered. If you would like to actively participate in the forum, you must register by entering your e-mail address, a password of your own choice and your freely selectable user name. There is no requirement to use a real name for the user name; pseudonymized use is possible. You must also provide information about your first name, last name, company name, country, zip code, city, street and house number. We require this last-mentioned information in order to be able to accurately identify an existing contractual relationship between you and baramundi software GmbH. We use the so-called double-opt-in process for registration, which means that your registration is only complete if you have previously confirmed your registration via a confirmation e-mail sent to you for this purpose by clicking on the link contained therein. If you do not confirm your registration in this way, it will be automatically deleted from our database.

(2) If you sign up for a forum account, we will – until cancellation of your registration and in addition to the information provided at the time of registration – store all the information which you post in the forum, such as public posts, bulletin board entries, friendships, private messages, etc., for the purpose of operating the forum. The legal basis for this storage is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. Storage takes place for security reasons if the rights of third parties are violated or illegal content is left behind (insults, slander, incitement to hatred, etc.). In this case we can be prosecuted ourselves for the contribution and are therefore interested in the identity of the author. These data will not be passed on to third parties unless such a passing on is legally prescribed or serves our legal defence.

(3) If you delete your account, your public statements, including in particular contributions to the forum, will remain visible to all readers, but your account will no longer be available and will be identified in the forum with "[guest]". All other data will be deleted.

Use of the baramundi Knowledge Base

(1) Our Knowledge Base can only be read if you are logged in. If you would like to actively participate in the Knowledge Base, you must register and log in to the baramundi Forum. When you visit the Knowledge Base, a Knowledge Base account is created with your user name, first name and surname selected in the forum.

(2) Until you cancel your Knowledge Base account, in addition to your registration data, we store all information that you provide in the Knowledge Base, i.e. comments and likes of the Knowledge Base articles as well as search queries, and use these for anonymous statistical evaluations to optimize and expand the information offered by the Knowledge Base articles. This serves our interest as Knowledge Base operators to provide you with comprehensive information about our products. The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f DS-GVO. In addition, for security reasons, storage is carried out if the rights of third parties are violated or illegal content is left behind in articles (insults, slander, seditionary content, etc.). In this case we can be prosecuted ourselves for the contribution and are therefore interested in the identity of the author. This data will not be passed on to third parties, unless such a transfer is required by law or serves our legal defence.

(3) If you delete your Knowledge Base account, your public statements, especially the article comments, will remain visible to all readers, but your account will no longer be accessible and will be marked as "[Guest]". All other data will be deleted.

Use of Social-Media-plugins

(1) We currently use the following social media plugins: Facebook, Twitter, Xing and LinkedIn. We use the so-called double-click solution. This means that by default, no personal data are initially sent to plugin providers when you visit our website. You can recognize the provider of the plugin through the marking on the box, through its initial or logo. We offer you the option to communicate directly with the plugin provider through a button. The plugin provider only receives information that you have accessed the respective website of our online portfolio if you click on the marked field and therefore activate it. The above-mentioned data will also be transmitted. According to the relevant providers in Germany, Facebook and Xing anonymize the IP address immediately after it is collected. By activating the plugin, therefore, your personal data are transmitted to the respective plugin provider and stored there (in the case of US providers in the USA). Since plugin providers acquire these data mainly through cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies via your browser’s security settings before you click on the grayed-out box.

(2) We have no influence over the collected data or data processing procedures, nor do we have knowledge about the full scale of data acquisition, the purposes for which data are processed, or the storage durations. Similarly, we do not have any information about the deletion of the collected data by the plugin provider.

(3) The plugin provider stores the data collected about you as user profiles and utilizes them for advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of their website. Such an analysis is in particular used to create tailored advertising (even for users who are not logged in) and to inform other users of the respective social network about your activities on our website. You have a right to object to the creation of such user profiles and must contact the respective plugin provider directly if you wish to exercise this right. Through the plugins we enable you to interact with the social networks and other users. The processing of your personal data when you visit one of our social media services is based on our legitimate interests in a diverse external presentation of our company and the use of an effective information opportunity and communication with you. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Under certain circumstances, you have also given a platform operator consent to data processing, in which case Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR is the legal basis.

(4) Data are forwarded irrespective of whether you have an account with the plugin provider or whether you are currently logged in to said account. If you are logged in with the plugin provider your data which are collected by us are directly associated with your account with the plugin provider. If you use the activated button and, for example link to the site, the plugin provider also stores this information in your user account and shares this publicly with your contacts. We recommend logging out regularly after using a social network, but especially before you activate the button. In this way you can avoid any association with your profile at the plugin provider. 

(5) Additional information about the purpose and scale of data collection and the processing of these data by the plugin provider is contained in the data protection declarations of these providers notified below. These declarations also provide you with additional information concerning your associated rights and settings options for the protection of your privacy.
