Data collection on this website

Who is responsible for the data collection on this website?

Data pro­cess­ing on this web­site is car­ried out by the web­site oper­a­tor. You can find the con­tact details of the web­site oper­a­tor in the sec­tion “Infor­ma­tion about the respon­si­ble par­ty” in this data pro­tec­tion declaration.

How do we collect your data?

On the one hand, your data is col­lect­ed when you pro­vide it to us. This can be, for exam­ple, data that you enter in a con­tact form.

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

What do we use your data for?

Some of the data is col­lect­ed to ensure error-free pro­vi­sion of the web­site. Oth­er data may be used to ana­lyze your user behavior.

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 also have a right to request the cor­rec­tion or dele­tion of this data. If you have giv­en your con­sent to data pro­cess­ing, you can revoke this con­sent at any time for the future. You also have the right to request the restric­tion of the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data under cer­tain cir­cum­stances. Fur­ther­more, you have the right to lodge a com­plaint with the com­pe­tent super­vi­so­ry authority.

You can con­tact us at any time with regard to this and oth­er ques­tions on the sub­ject of data protection.

Third-party analytics and tools

When vis­it­ing this web­site, your surf­ing behav­ior can be sta­tis­ti­cal­ly eval­u­at­ed. This is done main­ly with so-called analy­sis programs.

Detailed infor­ma­tion about these analy­sis pro­grams can be found in the fol­low­ing pri­va­cy policy.

2. Hosting

We host the con­tent of our web­site with the fol­low­ing provider:

DomainFactory

Provider is Domain­Fac­to­ry GmbH, c/​o WeWork, Neu­turm­straße 5, 80331 Munich (here­inafter Domain­Fac­to­ry). When you vis­it our web­site, Domain­Fac­to­ry col­lects var­i­ous log files includ­ing your IP addresses.

The use of Domain­Fac­to­ry is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. We have a legit­i­mate inter­est in the most reli­able pre­sen­ta­tion of our web­site. Inso­far as a cor­re­spond­ing con­sent has been request­ed, the pro­cess­ing is car­ried out exclu­sive­ly on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, inso­far as the con­sent includes the stor­age of cook­ies or access to infor­ma­tion in the user’s ter­mi­nal device (e.g. for device fin­ger­print­ing) as defined by the TTDSG. The con­sent can be revoked at any time.

Order processing

We have con­clud­ed a con­tract on order pro­cess­ing (AVV) for the use of the above-men­tioned ser­vice. This is a con­tract required by data pro­tec­tion law, which ensures that this process­es the per­son­al data of our web­site vis­i­tors only accord­ing to our instruc­tions and in com­pli­ance with the GDPR.

3. General notes and mandatory information

Privacy

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 per­son­al data are col­lect­ed. Per­son­al data is data with which you can be per­son­al­ly iden­ti­fied. This pri­va­cy pol­i­cy explains what data we col­lect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what pur­pose this is done.

We point out that data trans­mis­sion over the Inter­net (eg com­mu­ni­ca­tion by e‑mail) secu­ri­ty gaps. A com­plete pro­tec­tion of the data against access by third par­ties is not possible.

Note on the responsible entity

The respon­si­ble par­ty for data pro­cess­ing on this web­site is:

Puz­zlepie Event Tech­nol­o­gy Zam­bia Ltd.
12073 Mukala Street
Chudleigh, Lusa­ka
Zam­bia
Man­ag­ing Direc­tor: Benedikt Karpati

Tele­fon: +260 630 371 980
info@puzzlepie.co.zm
The con­troller is the nat­ur­al or legal per­son who alone or joint­ly with oth­ers deter­mines the pur­pos­es and means of the pro­cess­ing of per­son­al data (e.g. names, e‑mail address­es, etc.).

Storage duration

Unless a more spe­cif­ic stor­age peri­od has been spec­i­fied with­in this pri­va­cy pol­i­cy, your per­son­al data will remain with us until the pur­pose for data pro­cess­ing no longer applies. If you assert a legit­i­mate request for dele­tion or revoke your con­sent to data pro­cess­ing, your data will be delet­ed unless we have oth­er legal­ly per­mis­si­ble rea­sons for stor­ing your per­son­al data (e.g. reten­tion peri­ods under tax or com­mer­cial law); in the lat­ter case, the data will be delet­ed once these rea­sons no longer apply.

General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website

If you have con­sent­ed to data pro­cess­ing, we process your per­son­al data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) a DSGVO or Art. 9 (2) a DSGVO, if spe­cial cat­e­gories of data are processed accord­ing to Art. 9 (1) DSGVO. In the case of explic­it con­sent to the trans­fer of per­son­al data to third coun­tries, the data pro­cess­ing is also based on Art. 49 (1) a DSGVO. If you have con­sent­ed to the stor­age of cook­ies or to the access to infor­ma­tion in your ter­mi­nal device (e.g. via device fin­ger­print­ing), the data pro­cess­ing is addi­tion­al­ly car­ried out on the basis of Sec­tion 25 (1) TTDSG. The con­sent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required for the per­for­mance of a con­tract or for the imple­men­ta­tion of pre-con­trac­tu­al mea­sures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO. Fur­ther­more, if your data is required for the ful­fill­ment of a legal oblig­a­tion, we process it on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO. Fur­ther­more, the data pro­cess­ing may be car­ried out on the basis of our legit­i­mate inter­est accord­ing to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Infor­ma­tion about the rel­e­vant legal basis in each indi­vid­ual case is pro­vid­ed in the fol­low­ing para­graphs of this pri­va­cy policy.

Note on data transfer to the USA and other third countries

Among oth­er things, we use tools from com­pa­nies based in the USA or oth­er third coun­tries that are not secure under data pro­tec­tion law. If these tools are active, your per­son­al data may be trans­ferred to these third coun­tries and processed there. We would like to point out that no lev­el of data pro­tec­tion com­pa­ra­ble to that in the EU can be guar­an­teed in these coun­tries. For exam­ple, US com­pa­nies are oblig­ed to hand over per­son­al data to secu­ri­ty author­i­ties with­out you as a data sub­ject being able to take legal action against this. It can there­fore not be ruled out that US author­i­ties (e.g. intel­li­gence ser­vices) process, eval­u­ate and per­ma­nent­ly store your data locat­ed on US servers for mon­i­tor­ing pur­pos­es. We have no influ­ence on these pro­cess­ing activities.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data pro­cess­ing oper­a­tions are only pos­si­ble with your express con­sent. You can revoke con­sent you have already giv­en at any time. The legal­i­ty of the data pro­cess­ing car­ried out until the revo­ca­tion remains unaf­fect­ed by the revocation.

Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 DSGVO)

If the data pro­cess­ing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. E or F DSGVO, you have the right to object to the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data at any time for rea­sons aris­ing from your par­tic­u­lar sit­u­a­tion; this also applies to pro­fil­ing based on these pro­vi­sions. The respec­tive legal basis on which pro­cess­ing is based can be found in this Pri­va­cy Pol­i­cy. If you object, we will no longer process your per­son­al data con­cerned, unless we can demon­strate com­pelling legit­i­mate grounds for the pro­cess­ing which over­ride your inter­ests, rights and free­doms, or the pro­cess­ing serves the pur­pose of assert­ing, exer­cis­ing or defend­ing legal claims (objec­tion under Arti­cle 21(1) DSGVO).

If your per­son­al data are processed for the pur­pose of direct mar­ket­ing, you have the right to object at any time to the pro­cess­ing of per­son­al data con­cern­ing you for the pur­pose of such mar­ket­ing; this also applies to pro­fil­ing, inso­far as it is asso­ci­at­ed with such direct mar­ket­ing. If you object, your per­son­al data will sub­se­quent­ly no longer be used for the pur­pose of direct mar­ket­ing (objec­tion pur­suant to Art. 21 (2) DSGVO).

Right of appeal to the competent supervisory authorit

In the event of breach­es of the GDPR, data sub­jects shall have a right of appeal to a super­vi­so­ry author­i­ty, in par­tic­u­lar in the Mem­ber State of their habit­u­al res­i­dence, their place of work or the place of the alleged breach. The right of appeal is with­out prej­u­dice to oth­er admin­is­tra­tive or judi­cial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process auto­mat­i­cal­ly on the basis of your con­sent or in ful­fill­ment 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 inso­far as it is tech­ni­cal­ly feasible.

Information, deletion and correction

With­in the frame­work of the applic­a­ble legal pro­vi­sions, you have the right at any time to free infor­ma­tion about your stored per­son­al data, its ori­gin and recip­i­ent and the pur­pose of data pro­cess­ing and, if nec­es­sary, a right to cor­rec­tion or dele­tion of this data. For this pur­pose, as well as for fur­ther ques­tions on the sub­ject of per­son­al data, you can con­tact us at any time.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restric­tion of the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data. For this pur­pose, you can con­tact us at any time. The right to restric­tion of pro­cess­ing exists in the fol­low­ing cases:

  • If you dis­pute the accu­ra­cy of your per­son­al data stored by us, we usu­al­ly need time to ver­i­fy this. For the dura­tion of the review, you have the right to request the restric­tion of the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data.
  • If the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data happened/​is hap­pen­ing unlaw­ful­ly, you may request the restric­tion of data pro­cess­ing instead of erasure.
  • If we no longer need your per­son­al data, but you need it to exer­cise, defend or enforce legal claims, you have the right to request restric­tion of the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data instead of deletion.
  • If you have lodged an objec­tion pur­suant to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, a bal­anc­ing of your and our inter­ests must be car­ried out. As long as it has not yet been deter­mined whose inter­ests pre­vail, you have the right to request the restric­tion of the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data.

If you have restrict­ed the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data, this data may – apart from being stored – only be processed with your con­sent or for the asser­tion, exer­cise or defense of legal claims or for the pro­tec­tion of the rights of anoth­er nat­ur­al or legal per­son or for rea­sons of an impor­tant pub­lic inter­est of the Euro­pean Union or a Mem­ber State.

SSL or TLS encryption

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

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

4. Data collection on this website

Cookies

Our Inter­net pages use so-called “cook­ies”. Cook­ies are small data pack­ets and do not cause any dam­age to your end device. They are stored either tem­porar­i­ly for the dura­tion of a ses­sion (ses­sion cook­ies) or per­ma­nent­ly (per­ma­nent cook­ies) on your end device. Ses­sion cook­ies are auto­mat­i­cal­ly delet­ed at the end of your vis­it. Per­ma­nent cook­ies remain stored on your end device until you delete them your­self or until they are auto­mat­i­cal­ly delet­ed by your web browser.

Cook­ies can orig­i­nate from us (first-par­ty cook­ies) or from third-par­ty com­pa­nies (so-called third-par­ty cook­ies). Third-par­ty cook­ies enable the inte­gra­tion of cer­tain ser­vices of third-par­ty com­pa­nies with­in web­sites (e.g. cook­ies for pro­cess­ing pay­ment services).

Cook­ies have var­i­ous func­tions. Many cook­ies are tech­ni­cal­ly nec­es­sary, as cer­tain web­site func­tions would not work with­out them (e.g. the shop­ping cart func­tion or the dis­play of videos). Oth­er cook­ies can be used to eval­u­ate user behav­ior or for adver­tis­ing purposes.

Cook­ies that are nec­es­sary to car­ry out the elec­tron­ic com­mu­ni­ca­tion process, to pro­vide cer­tain func­tions that you have request­ed (e.g. for the shop­ping cart func­tion) or to opti­mize the web­site (e.g. cook­ies to mea­sure the web audi­ence) (nec­es­sary cook­ies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, unless anoth­er legal basis is spec­i­fied. The web­site oper­a­tor has a legit­i­mate inter­est in stor­ing nec­es­sary cook­ies for the tech­ni­cal­ly error-free and opti­mized pro­vi­sion of its ser­vices. If con­sent to the stor­age of cook­ies and com­pa­ra­ble recog­ni­tion tech­nolo­gies has been request­ed, pro­cess­ing is car­ried out exclu­sive­ly on the basis of this con­sent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG); con­sent can be revoked at any time.

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. When deac­ti­vat­ing cook­ies, the func­tion­al­i­ty of this web­site may be limited.

Which cook­ies and ser­vices are used on this web­site can be found in this pri­va­cy policy.

YouTube with enhanced privacy

This web­site embeds videos from the web­site YouTube. The oper­a­tor of the pages is Google Ire­land Lim­it­ed (“Google”), Gor­don House, Bar­row Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in extend­ed pri­va­cy mode. Accord­ing to YouTube, this mode means that YouTube does not store any infor­ma­tion about vis­i­tors to this web­site before they watch the video. How­ev­er, the dis­clo­sure of data to YouTube part­ners is not nec­es­sar­i­ly exclud­ed by the extend­ed data pro­tec­tion mode. Thus, YouTube – regard­less of whether you watch a video – estab­lish­es a con­nec­tion to the Google Dou­bleClick network.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on this web­site, a con­nec­tion to the YouTube servers is estab­lished. This tells the YouTube serv­er which of our pages you have vis­it­ed. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surf­ing behav­ior direct­ly to your per­son­al pro­file. You can pre­vent this by log­ging out of your YouTube account.

Fur­ther­more, after start­ing a video, YouTube may store var­i­ous cook­ies on your end device or use com­pa­ra­ble recog­ni­tion tech­nolo­gies (e.g. device fin­ger­print­ing). In this way, YouTube can obtain infor­ma­tion about vis­i­tors to this web­site. This infor­ma­tion is used, among oth­er things, to col­lect video sta­tis­tics, improve the user expe­ri­ence, and pre­vent fraud attempts.

If nec­es­sary, fur­ther data pro­cess­ing oper­a­tions may be trig­gered after the start of a YouTube video, over which we have no control.

YouTube is used in the inter­est of an appeal­ing pre­sen­ta­tion of our online offers. This rep­re­sents a legit­i­mate inter­est with­in the mean­ing of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Inso­far as a cor­re­spond­ing con­sent has been request­ed, the pro­cess­ing is car­ried out exclu­sive­ly on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, inso­far as the con­sent includes the stor­age of cook­ies or access to infor­ma­tion in the user’s ter­mi­nal device (e.g. device fin­ger­print­ing) with­in the mean­ing of the TTDSG. The con­sent can be revoked at any time.

For more infor­ma­tion about pri­va­cy at YouTube, please see their pri­va­cy pol­i­cy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.
