We are delighted by your interest in our company. Data protection is of particular importance to the management of DICK AUTOMOBILE e.K. The use of the DICK AUTOMOBILE e.K. website is possible without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use specific services via our website, the processing of personal data may become necessary.

Additionally, data subjects are informed of their rights under this Privacy Policy.

To ensure comprehensive protection of the personal data processed through this website, DICK AUTOMOBILE e.K. has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures. However, internet-based data transmissions can have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, every data subject is free to provide personal data to us via alternative means, such as by telephone.

Cookies

4. Cookies

The DICK AUTOMOBILE e.K. website uses cookies to provide a more user-friendly experience. Cookies are text files stored on a user’s device by their web browser.
Users can configure their browsers to disable cookies, but some website functionalities may not work properly without them.

Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier for the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, the DICK AUTOMOBILE e.K. can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized for the benefit of the user. As already mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to re-enter their access data each time they visit the website because this is taken over by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie for a shopping basket in an online store. The online store remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

Subscription to Our Newsletter

6. Subscription to Our Newsletter

Users can subscribe to our newsletter by providing their email addresses. A double-opt-in process is used to confirm the subscription. Subscribers can unsubscribe at any time via a link in the newsletter.

The DICK AUTOMOBILE e.K. informs its customers and business partners regularly by means of a newsletter about enterprise offers. Our company's newsletter can only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid e-mail address and (2) the data subject registers to receive the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation e-mail is sent to the e-mail address entered by a data subject for the first time for the newsletter mailing using the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation email is used to check whether the owner of the email address as the data subject has authorized the receipt of the newsletter.

When registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the computer system used by the data subject at the time of registration, as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to trace the (possible) misuse of a data subject's e-mail address at a later date and therefore serves as legal protection for the controller.

The personal data collected when registering for the newsletter will be used exclusively to send our newsletter. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter may be informed by e-mail if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or a registration in this regard, as could be the case in the event of changes to the newsletter offer or changes to the technical circumstances. The personal data collected as part of the newsletter service will not be passed on to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter can be canceled by the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has given us for sending the newsletter can be revoked at any time. There is a corresponding link in every newsletter for the purpose of revoking consent. It is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the controller's website or to inform the controller of this in another way.

Newsletter Tracking

7. Newsletter Tracking

Our newsletters contain tracking pixels to analyze user interactions with our emails (e.g., which links were clicked). This data is used to improve our newsletter content and is not shared with third parties.

Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and evaluated by the controller in order to optimize the newsletter dispatch and to adapt the content of future newsletters even better to the interests of the data subject. This personal data is not passed on to third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to revoke the separate declaration of consent given in this regard via the double opt-in procedure. After revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the controller. The DICK AUTOMOBILE e.K. automatically regards a withdrawal from the receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.
