Where the GDPR applies, we process personal data on one or more of the following legal bases:
Consent
Where you have given consent, we may process your personal data for the specific purposes described when consent was requested.
You may withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
Performance of a Contract
We may process personal data where processing is necessary to provide a service, subscription, membership, transaction or other contractual arrangement requested by you.
Legal Obligation
We may process personal data where necessary to comply with applicable legal, tax, accounting, regulatory or other legal requirements.
Legitimate Interests
We may process personal data where necessary for our legitimate interests, provided those interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms.
These interests may include operating and improving our publication and website, maintaining security, preventing misuse, responding to professional enquiries, protecting our legal rights and managing business relationships.
5. Newsletters and Marketing Communications
Where permitted by applicable law, icönik may send newsletters, editorial updates, promotional communications or other marketing communications.
Where consent is required, we will request it before sending relevant marketing communications.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe mechanism included in the relevant communication or by contacting us.
Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not necessarily stop essential service, transaction, account or legal communications.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
icönik may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand website usage, improve performance, maintain security and, where applicable, measure or deliver advertising.
Cookies may include:
-
strictly necessary cookies;
-
functionality or preference cookies;
-
analytics cookies;
-
advertising or measurement technologies; and
-
cookies or technologies associated with embedded third-party content.
Where required by law, non-essential cookies and similar technologies will only be used after the appropriate consent has been obtained.
You may be able to manage your preferences through the website's Cookie Settings interface.
Further information may be provided in our Cookie Policy.

9. International Data Transfers
Because icönik operates as an international digital publication and may use service providers located in different countries, personal data may in some circumstances be processed outside Germany or the European Economic Area ("EEA").
Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we will take appropriate measures required by applicable data protection law, which may include an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses or other legally recognized transfer mechanisms.
10. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

the purpose for which the information was collected;
-
contractual requirements;
-
legal, accounting or tax obligations;
-
applicable limitation periods; and
-
legitimate business or security requirements.
When personal data is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to delete it, anonymize it or otherwise securely dispose of it.
11. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no method of transmission or storage over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
