The use of the contact data published within the scope of the imprint obligation by third parties for sending unsolicited advertising and information material is hereby prohibited.

We reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information being sent, for example through spam e-mails.

The legal basis of data protection can be found in the General Data Protection Act.

In this policy, the terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the organization Doctors Against Animal Experiments Germany

2. Access Data / Server Logfiles

We collect data about every access to the offer (so called server log files).

Access data includes:

  • Name of the accessed website,
  • date, time and duration of the access,
  • transferred data volume (in byte),
  • notification of successful access,
  • browser type and version,
  • the user’s operating system,

3. Cookies

Cookies are small files that enable the user’s access device (PC, smartphone etc.) to store specific information relating to the device. They serve on one hand the user-friendliness of web pages and thus the users (e.g. storage of login data). On the other hand, they are used to collect statistical data on the use of the website and to analyze it for the purpose of improving the offer. Users can influence the use of cookies. Most browsers have an option with which the storage of cookies is restricted or completely prevented. However, doing this can limit the use and especially the comfort of use. You can manage many corporate online ad cookies through the US site https://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site https://youronlinechoices.eu/.

4. Establishing Contact / Contact Form

When contacting Doctors against Animal Experiments Germany (e.g. via contact form, press-contact, e-mail, telephone or fax), the user’s details are stored for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event that follow-up questions will arise.

Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e. information that can be traced back to a person. This includes your name, e-mail address or telephone number. But also data about preferences, hobbies, memberships or which websites were viewed by someone count as personal data. Personal data is only collected, used and passed on by the provider if this is legally permitted or if the users agree to the data collection.

6. Integration of third party services content

It may happen that third party content, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, Google Fonts, e.g. from opinion stages, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites, is integrated within this online offer. This always presupposes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third party providers”) perceive the IP address of the users. Without the IP address, they could not send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore required for the display of this content. We make every effort to use only those contents whose respective providers use the IP address only for the delivery of the contents. However, we have no influence on this if third party providers store the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. We inform users about everything that is known to us.
