KG, Frankfurter Allee 69 in 10247 Berlin, Germany (hereinafter &#8220;Lamapoll&#8221;). Through your voluntary participation in the voting and the survey or by clicking on the &#8220;Vote now&#8221; button, you will be forwarded directly to Lamapoll, which will process the data you have provided for us in compliance with the necessary data protection and data security measures.<\/p>\n<p>By using the services of Lamapoll, personal data to be provided voluntarily in individual cases will be collected and processed by Lamapoll. Lamapoll acts as a service provider for me within the scope of an order processing according to Art. 28 DSGVO. Lamapoll uses the collected data exclusively for the purpose stated here, on my behalf. A further use of the data by Lamapoll as well as a transfer to third parties does not take place. A storage of the data collected by Lamapoll together with other personal data of the participant of the voting or survey does not take place.<\/p>\n<p>Further information on the processing of data by Lamapoll can be found at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lamapoll.de\/Datenschutz-Sicherheit\"><span style=\"color: #c8b17a;\">https:\/\/www.lamapoll.de\/Datenschutz-Sicherheit<\/span><\/a> and for the use of the survey tool at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lamapoll.de\/cms\/files\/files\/Datenschutzerkl\u00e4rung%20-%20Umfrage-Tool.pdf\"><span style=\"color: #c8b17a;\">https:\/\/www.lamapoll.de\/cms\/files\/files\/Datenschutzerkl\u00e4rung%20-%20Umfrage-Tool.pdf<\/span>.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Participation in the voting and survey is voluntary. With your participation you give me your consent to the processing of your personal data or by Lamapoll according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO.<\/p>\n<p>This data will only be stored for the duration of the voting and evaluation 6 months. After that, the data will be deleted.<\/p>\n<p>You have the option at any time to revoke your consent to the processing of personal data in the context of the feedback survey or to delete the data you have provided. You can unsubscribe at any time. It can be done by e-mail <a href=\"mailto:ulf.switalski@thebonusawards.com\">(<span style=\"color: #c8b17a;\">ulf.switalski@thebonusawards.com<\/span>)<\/a> to us. A subsequent correction of individual answers after sending the survey is not possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(2) Raffle participation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For the participation in a raffle organized on this website, the processing of certain personal data is necessary for the purpose of a possible prize notification and transmission as well as for your identification.<\/p>\n<p>For your participation in this, I initially only need your e-mail address.<\/p>\n<p>I will only require your contact details (name and address) after the prize has been determined and only in the event that you have been determined as the winner, in order to be able to send you the prize.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the type of prize, it may also be necessary to provide other or additional data (e.g. your membership number if you win bonus points in the relevant bonus program). I will request this additional data by writing to you by e-mail via the e-mail address you have provided. You are not obliged to provide me with this additional data. However, in the event that you do not provide me with this additional data, I may not be able to send you the prize.<\/p>\n<p>Your personal data will be processed by me for the purpose of conducting the sweepstakes on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO.<\/p>\n<p>I conduct the raffles together with cooperation partners. In individual cases, it may be necessary for me to forward certain data to the cooperation partner specifically responsible for the redemption of the prize. For example, for the redemption of bonus points won, it is necessary that the provider of the relevant bonus program is informed of the bonus program membership number of the winner. You will be informed of this cooperation partner before the corresponding data is transferred, as part of your prize notification. Any further transfer of your personal data to third parties or use of the data for advertising purposes (e.g. for sending newsletters) will only take place if this is necessary for the implementation of the competition or if you have previously given your express consent to this.<\/p>\n<p>If you subscribe to a newsletter from us as part of the competition, please note our data protection information on our newsletter dispatch in this statement.<\/p>\n<p>Your personal data will be deleted automatically after the competition has ended, unless you have given us permission to process your data beyond the purpose of the competition or legal regulations prevent deletion.<strong style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) Subscription to the newsletter<br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With your consent, you can subscribe to my newsletter, which I use to inform you about bonus programmes, cashback and travel offers.<\/p>\n<p>The newsletter is sent using \u201cBrevo\u201d, a newsletter software from the German provider Sendinblue GmbH, K\u00f6penicker Stra\u00dfe 126, 10179 Berlin<\/p>\n<p>(hereinafter referred to as \u201cBrevo\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>The data processing is carried out on my behalf on the basis of an order processing contract that I have concluded with Brevo. In this contract, Brevo undertakes to protect my users\u2019 data, to process it only on our behalf and, in particular, not to pass it on to third parties. Brevo undertakes to comply with EU data protection regulations.<\/p>\n<p>I use the so-called double opt-in procedure to subscribe to my newsletter. This means that after you have registered, I send an e-mail to the e-mail address you have provided asking you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. This confirmation is necessary to ensure that no-one can register with other people\u2019s e-mail addresses. Registration for the newsletter is logged in order to be able to prove the registration process in accordance with legal requirements. This includes storing the time of registration and confirmation as well as the IP address. Changes to your data stored by Brevo are also logged. If you do not confirm your registration within 4 weeks, your information will be blocked and deleted after one month.<\/p>\n<p>I only need your e-mail address to send you the newsletter. After your confirmation, I will save your e-mail address for the purpose of sending you the newsletter.<\/p>\n<p>The email addresses of my newsletter subscribers, as well as their other data described in this notice, are stored on Brevo\u2019s servers in the EU.<\/p>\n<p>Information on data protection and compliance with the GDPR at Brevo can be found here.

You can declare your cancellation by clicking on the link provided in every newsletter email or by sending a message to the contact details given in the legal notice.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to point out that after the newsletter has been sent, your user behaviour with regard to my newsletter will be evaluated by me. With Brevo, I have the option of linking your personal data with so-called SmartTags. When you register, you will automatically receive a tag with the name of the relevant registration form. In addition, Brevo automatically sets the tags \u201cemail received\u201d, \u201cemail opened\u201d, \u201cemail clicked\u201d and \u201cemail viewed in browser\u201d. This processing is also based on your consent. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.<\/p>\n<p>If you do not wish to be analysed, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter or revoke your consent (see above).<\/p>\n<p>The data you have provided to me for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by me until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and deleted after you unsubscribe from the newsletter.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-size: 18px;\">4.
