This privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") explains how we process and protect your personal data when you use this Website or our services provided via www.blackdor.com (together, the "Website").
The Website is operated by Blackdor GmbH, Stülerstraße 11, 10787 Berlin (the "COMPANY", "we", "our", or "us"). The Company is the controller for the data processing described below.
Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, the definitions used in this Privacy Policy have the same meaning as in the EU General Data Protection Regulation.
We may collect or receive personal information for a number of purposes connected with our business operations when you use our website or our services. This may include the following:
We collect information about our users when they use our Website or our services, including taking certain actions within it.
Directly
Indirectly
Our legal basis for collecting and using the personal data described in this Privacy Policy depends on the personal data we collect and the specific purposes for which we collect it.
Contract: To perform our contractual obligations or take steps linked to a contract with you. In particular:
Consent: We may rely on your freely given consent at the time you provided your personal data. In particular:
Legitimate interests: We may rely on legitimate interests based on our assessment that the processing is fair and reasonable and does not override your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. In particular:
Necessity for compliance with legal obligations: To meet regulatory and public interest obligations. In particular:
We may send newsletters and other notifications by email and through other communication channels. We may have newsletters and other notifications sent by third parties or send them with the help of third parties.
In principle, you must expressly consent to the use of your e-mail address and other contact addresses, unless the use is permitted for other legal reasons.
Newsletters and other notifications may contain web links or tracking pixels that record whether an individual newsletter or notification has been opened and which web links were clicked (performance measurement). Such web links and tracking pixels record the use of newsletters and other notifications. We need this statistical recording of usage, including success and reach measurement, in order to be able to offer newsletters and other notifications effectively and in a user-friendly manner, as well as permanently, securely and reliably, based on the reading habits of the recipients.
You can unsubscribe from newsletters and other notifications at any time and thereby object in particular to the aforementioned collection of usage. You can do so by contacting us directly or following the link included in the footer of each newsletter we send you.
The Company may engage third party companies ("Service Providers") to facilitate the operation of our Website, assist in analyzing the usage of the Website, or perform Website and service-related services, such as payment and the provision of IT infrastructure services. These third parties have access to the user’s personal data only to the extent necessary to perform these tasks on behalf of the Company.
Type(s) of service providers who might access your personal data:
We may use service providers who are partly located in so-called third countries (outside the European Union or the European Economic Area) or process personal data there, i.e. countries whose level of data protection does not correspond to that of the EU.
We safeguard your personal data per our contractual obligations and applicable data protection legislation when transferring data abroad.
Such safeguards may include:
If a third country transfer takes place and there is no adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards, it is possible and there is a risk that authorities in the third country (e.g. intelligence services) can gain access to the transferred data and that the enforceability of your data subject's rights cannot be guaranteed.
We may disclose your personal data in the good faith belief that such action is necessary:
We take reasonable technical and organisational security measures that we deem appropriate to protect your stored data against manipulation, loss, or unauthorised third-party access. Our security measures are continually adapted to technological developments.
We also take internal data privacy very seriously. Our employees and the Service Providers that we retain are required to maintain secrecy and comply with applicable data protection legislation. In addition, they are granted access to personal data only insofar as this is necessary for them to carry out their respective tasks or mandate.
The security of your personal data is important to us but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We recommend using antivirus software, a firewall, and other similar software to safeguard your system.
You have the below data protection rights. To exercise these rights, you may contact the above address or send an e-mail to: hi@blackdor.com. Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before responding to such requests.
Our website may contain links to websites or apps that are not operated by us. When you click on a third party link, you will be directed to that third party's website or app. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third party websites or services.
We maintain online presences on social networks to, among other things, communicate with customers and prospective customers and to provide information about our products and services. If you have an account on the same network, it is possible that your information and media made available there may be seen by us, for example, when we access your profile. In addition, the social network may allow us to contact you. The content communication via the social network and the processing of the content data is thereby subject to the responsibility of the social network. As soon as we transfer personal data into our own system, we are responsible for this independently. This is then done in order to carry out pre-contractual measures and to fulfil a contract. For the legal basis of the data processing carried out by the social networks under their own responsibility, please refer to their data protection declarations. Below is a list of social networks on which we operate an online presence:

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your device by the browser. Comparable technologies are in particular web storage (local / session storage), fingerprints, tags or pixels. Most browsers are set by default to accept cookies and similar technologies. However, you can usually adjust your browser settings so that cookies or similar technologies are rejected or only stored with your prior consent.

If you have given your consent to use certain tools, we will (also) transfer the data processed when using the tools to third countries on the basis of this consent.
