III. Provision of website and creation of log files
Every time our website is accessed, our system automatically records data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.
The following data are thereby collected:
(1) information on the browser type and version used
(2) user’s operating system
(3) user’s Internet service provider
(4) user’s IP address
(5) date and time of access
(6) websites from which the user’s system gains access to our website
(7) websites accessed from user’s system via our website

The data are stored in the log files of our system. Based on the IP address, we can allocate to the user those payment options available in his/her country if he/she orders paid services. We moreover have the possibility of detecting cases of attempted fraud.
Additionally, the system temporarily stores the IP address of each user for the purpose of delivering the website to the user’s computer. The data are stored in access logs for a period of 7 days.
For the purpose of preventing fraud, IP addresses are stored until the contract has been terminated.
The legal basis for data processing is provided by Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We have a legitimate interest in data processing in the cases specified here.
IV. Use of cookies
We use cookies on our website. These are small files which are created by your browser automatically and which are stored on your terminal device (laptop, tablet, smart phone, or similar) when you visit our website. Cookies do not damage your terminal device, do not contain any viruses, Trojans or other malware.
A cookie stores information resulting in each case in connection with the specifically used terminal device. However, that does not mean that we thereby directly obtain knowledge of your identity. The use of cookies thus on the one hand serves to make it more convenient for you to use our offering. For example, we use what are referred to as session cookies to detect that you have already visited specific pages of our website. These are deleted automatically after you leave our site.
We also use temporary cookies, stored for a specifically defined period on your terminal device, to optimise user-friendliness. If you visit our site again to use our services, it is automatically detected that you were already on our site, and which data were entered and what settings were made by you. That way you don’t have to enter such data again. Information is also stored to identify what are referred to as webmasters. A webmaster is the operator of a website who has placed an advertisement on its website referring that website. By clicking on this ad, users can gain access to our website. The information identifying the webmaster is provided so that it can be allocated a fee.
On the other hand, we use cookies to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate such use to optimise our offering and improve the visitor experience for you (see V.). These cookies enable us to detect automatically, when you visit our site again, that you had already visited our site. These cookies are automatically deleted after a specifically defined period of time of 50 months maximum.
The data processed by cookies are required for the aforementioned purposes of safeguarding our legitimate interests as well as those of third parties pursuant to the first sentence of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Most browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you may configure your browser in such a way that no cookies are stored on your computer or that a notice is always displayed before a new cookie is created. But completely deactivating cookies may mean that you cannot use all functions of our website.
V. Google Analytics
The basis for performing the tracking measures with Google Analytics is provided by the first sentence of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. With the tracking measures used we want to ensure that our website is designed to meet the needs of users and optimised on a continuous basis. We moreover use the tracking measures to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate such use to optimise our offering for you. Such interests are to be deemed legitimate within the meaning of the aforementioned provision.
For the purpose of ensuring that our website is designed to meet the needs of users and optimised on a continuous basis, we use Google Analytics, a website analysis service of Google Ireland Limited https://www.google.de/intl/de/about/ (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter „Google“) as well as the extension Google Optimize. In this context, pseudonymised user profiles are created and cookies are used (see IV. below). The information generated by the cookie on your use of this website, such as
• browser type/version,
• operating system used
• referrer URL (the previously visited site),
• host name of accessing computer (IP address),

is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to render other services related to the use of the website and of the Internet in general for purposes of market research and designing such websites to meet the needs of users. Where applicable, such information is also transmitted to third parties to the extent prescribed by law and to the extent third parties process such data on behalf of a controller. Under no circumstances will your IP address be linked with other Google data. Since the IP addresses are anonymised, no identification is possible (IP masking).
You may prevent the installation of cookies by configuring your browser software accordingly; however, please note that in this case it may not be possible to make full use of all functions of this website. In addition, you may prevent collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (incl. your IP address) as well as processing of such data by Google by downloading and installing a browser add-on https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
As an alternative to the browser add-on, particularly in the case of browsers on mobile terminal devices, you can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting data by clicking on deactivate Google Analytics. An opt-out cookie preventing your data from being recorded in future when you visit the website is set. The opt-out cookie applies only in this browser and only for our website, and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you must set the opt-out cookie again.
Further information on data protection in connection with Google Analytics can be found e.g. on the Google Analytics help site at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

We use the services of credit service agencies to verify whether you are able to meet your payment obligation under our contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. This purpose also establishes the legitimate interest in such data processing. Moreover, we have engaged service providers that ensure an access and age verification of the users of our services, which are suitable for purposes aged 18 and up, on the legal basis of Article 6(1)(c) GDPR in order to fulfil our legal obligation.

Within the framework of this contractual relationship, we transmit collected personal data for the purpose of requesting, implementing and terminating this business relationship, as well as data regarding noncontractual conduct or fraudulent conduct to CRIF GmbH, Leopoldstraße 244, 80807 Munich/Germany. The legal basis for these transfers is set out in point (b) of Article 6 (1) and point (f) of Article 6 (1) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The exchange of data with CRIF GmbH also serves to comply with statutory duties of conducting creditworthiness assessments (Sections 505 a und 506 German Civil Code). CRIF GmbH processes the data received and also uses it for the purpose of creating profiles (scoring) to provide its contractual partners in the European Economic Area and Switzerland, and where applicable, third countries (if there exists for the country an adequacy decision of the European Commission) with information, among other things, for assessing the creditworthiness of individuals. You may find more detailed information about the operations of CRIF GmbH in their Fact Sheet or online at https://www.crif.de/privacy.

If the disclosure of data constitutes contract processing, we have entered into a contract with the service providers for contract processing and have complied with all other statutory requirements for contract processing. Our service providers are predominantly based in the European Union, and furthermore in Switzerland and the USA. The level of data protection in Switzerland was considered by the European Commission to be adequate and recorded in an adequacy decision. The adequacy decision is called 2000/518/EC: Commission Decision of 26 July 2000 pursuant to Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the adequate protection of personal data provided in Switzerland (notified under document number C(2000) 2304); accessible at https://eu.vlex.com/vid/gem-ischen-angemessenheit-personenbezogener-37729414.
XIII. Consent to Fraud Prevention and Fraud Detection
I hereby consent to this platform automatically checking whether there is any reason to suspect misuse of the platform by collecting, processing and using
1) my ordering data (e.g., item purchased, name, mailing address, e-mail address, delivery address, payment method and bank account data)
2) the user data on my visits to this platform (e.g., start time, end time, extent of the webpages visited as well as the click paths) along with
3) a cookie (i.e., a small text file stored locally in the browser's cache) and/or a visitor ID that may contain anonymous control data on the terminal used (e.g., my screen resolution or operating system version), which allow me to be recognized with a certain degree of reliability when I return to the website based on the terminal I use,

for the purpose of securing my user account, the websites I visit and the services I use on the website against fraud (e.g. account takeover, automated creation of fake user accounts by bots, the use of stolen identities or payment data or incorrect ratings for services), or abuse (e.g. by technical attacks on the IT infrastructure, „Man-in-the-middle“-attacks, brute-force-attacks or the usage of malware) or for product optimization and further development.

The provision of personal data is required for the conclusion of a contract. If the data is not provided, the platform reserves the right to interrupt the purchase process.

If, for an order, there is a suspicion of fraud or misuse, an employee of the platform checks the evaluation and the underlying evidence.

If my order is not authorized, I will be told so. Upon request, I will be informed of the main reasons for the decision. I will then be given an opportunity to express my point of view here:  support@visit-x.net  at which point an employee will reconsider the decision.

The platform has commissioned CRIF GmbH, Leopoldstraße 244, 80807 Munich as a service provider to prevent and detect misuse, which, for parts of the data processing, in particular the creation of the Device-ID, has subcontracted Lexisnexis B.V, The Base 3/F, Tower C, Evert van de Beekstraat 1, 1118 CL Schiphol, Netherlands.

• surname (birth name if applicable), first name(s)
• date of birth
• Current address (street, house number, postcode and city)
