We are pleased about your visit to our website www.destinyinc.eu and your interest in our company and our products. Despite careful review, we assume no liability for external links to third-party content, as we did not initiate the transmission of this information, nor did we select or modify the recipient or the information itself.

The protection of your personal data during collection, processing and use when you visit our websites is important to us and is carried out in accordance with legal regulations, which you can find out more about, for example at www.bfd.bund.de.

Below we explain what information we collect during your visit to our websites and how it is used:

​

1. Collection and storage of personal data as well as the type and purpose of its use

a) When visiting the website

​

Each time a customer (or other visitor) accesses our website, the internet browser used on your device (computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) automatically sends information to our website's server. This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file.

​

The following data is collected without your intervention and stored until automated deletion:

• IP address of the requesting computer, as well as device ID or unique device identifier and device type,

• Name of the retrieved file and amount of data transferred, as well as date and time of retrieval,

• Notification of successful retrieval,

• requesting domain,

• Description of the type of internet browser used and, if applicable, the operating system of your device, as well as the name of your access provider,

• Your browser history data and your standard weblog information,

• Location data, including location data from your mobile device. Please note that on most mobile devices, you can control or disable the use of location services in the device's settings menu.

 

Our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR for collecting the data is based on the following purposes: ensuring a smooth connection and comfortable use of the website, evaluating system security and stability, and for other administrative purposes.

 

Under no circumstances will we use the collected data to draw conclusions about you personally.

​

b) When using our contact form

​

For any questions, you can contact us using the form provided on our website. At least the following information is required so that we know who the inquiry is from and can respond. Providing additional information is optional.
Data processing for the purpose of contacting us is carried out in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter a of the GDPR based on your freely given consent.
The personal data collected by us for the use of the contact form will be automatically deleted after your inquiry has been processed.

​

c) Upon conclusion of a contractual relationship

​

When concluding a contractual relationship on our website, we ask you to provide the following personal data:

Data that personally identifies you, such as name and email address, date of birth, contact details (e.g., address, billing and shipping address/telephone number), photos, academic title; data that identifies your company (e.g., company name, address, communication details (email address, telephone, fax number), VAT ID or tax number if applicable); information about your payment method

- other personal data that we are legally obligated or entitled to collect and process, and which we need for your authentication, identification, or to verify the data we have collected.

​

The aforementioned data will be processed for the purpose of fulfilling the contractual relationship. This data processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. The storage period is limited to the purpose of the contract and, where applicable, statutory and contractual retention obligations.

​

d) Use of payment service providers

​

To process payments for contracts concluded with us that are subject to a fee, we also work with payment service providers. We forward your payment data to the commissioned payment service provider as part of the payment processing – specifically for the purpose of processing the payment – ​​insofar as this is necessary for the payment transaction. The legal basis for the transfer of data is Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR.

​

e) When you subscribe to our newsletter

​

If you have expressly consented in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter a of the GDPR, we will use your email address to send you our newsletter regularly. You can unsubscribe at any time, for example via a link at the end of a newsletter. Alternatively, you can also send your unsubscribe request by email at any time (preferably with the subject line: "Unsubscribe Newsletter").

​

2. Disclosure of personal data

Your data will not be transmitted to third parties for purposes other than those listed below.

​

We only share your data with third parties if:

• You have given your explicit consent in accordance with (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR),

• this is necessary for the performance of a contract with you (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR),

• a legal obligation to disclose exists (Art.6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR),

• The disclosure is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding legitimate interest in not disclosing your data (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR).

 

In these cases, however, the scope of the transmitted data is limited to the necessary minimum.

Our privacy policy complies with applicable data protection regulations, and data is processed exclusively within the Federal Republic of Germany/European Union. Data is not transferred to third countries, nor is this intended.

​

3. Rights of data subjects

Upon request, we will gladly inform you whether and which personal data concerning you is stored (Art. 15 GDPR), in particular about the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right to lodge a complaint, the origin of your data if it was not collected from us, and the existence of automated decision-making including profiling.

​

You also have the right to have any incorrectly collected personal data corrected or incompletely collected data completed (Art. 16 GDPR).

​

Furthermore, you have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your data, provided that the legal requirements for this are met (Art. 18 GDPR).

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or to request its transmission to another controller (Art. 20 GDPR).

​

Furthermore, you have the so-called “right to be forgotten”, i.e. you can request that we delete your personal data, provided that the legal requirements for this are met (Art. 17 GDPR).

 

Regardless, your personal data will be automatically deleted by us if the purpose of the data collection no longer applies or if the data processing was unlawful.

​

According to Article 7(3) of the GDPR, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. This means that we will no longer be permitted to process your data based on this consent in the future.

​

You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, provided that a right to object is legally stipulated. In the event of a valid objection, your personal data will also be automatically deleted by us (Art. 21 GDPR).

 

If you wish to exercise your right of withdrawal or objection, simply send an email to: destiny@destinyinc.eu

​

5. Cookies

We use cookies on our website. These are small text files that your browser automatically creates and stores on your device when you visit our website. Information is stored in the cookie that relates to the specific device used. However, this does not mean that we gain direct knowledge of your identity. These cookies are set as so-called first-party cookies ("our own cookies") or third-party cookies ("third-party cookies"). First-party cookies are set by the website you are currently visiting and are not accessible across domains by browsers. A third-party cookie, on the other hand, is set by a third party, i.e., not by the actual website you are currently visiting. Cookies are also distinguished as technically necessary and technically unnecessary. Both technically necessary and technically unnecessary cookies are set on our website in accordance with the following paragraphs.

​

Technically necessary cookies are essential for the operation of our website and, for example, enable certain functions to be used in the first place. These technically necessary cookies, which are only required and set for the individual necessary online session, are automatically deleted after you leave our website.

​

If you have given your consent, we use so-called non-essential cookies on our website. These cookies primarily serve to analyze website usage and user behavior, compile reports on visitor activity, and provide other services related to website use. The non-essential cookies we use are explained in our cookie banner with regard to their function, duration, and potential third-party recipients of the data. If certain third-party providers we use set cookies as part of their services, this will be specifically mentioned in our privacy policy. The legal basis for the use of non-essential cookies is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, provided you have given your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Furthermore, you can configure the setting of cookies at any time. For example, you can configure your browser to notify you before setting cookies or to block cookies entirely.

Our website uses Java applets and JavaScript. If you wish to disable these programs or active content for security reasons, you should adjust the corresponding setting in your browser.

​

6. Online marketing/analysis tools

Through statistical analysis via online marketing measures, we aim to tailor our website to your needs and continuously adapt and optimize its use for you, our user. Unless otherwise stated below, the use of our online marketing and tracking measures is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a GDPR. If your data is transferred to the USA, this is done on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 49 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a GDPR. Furthermore, the relevant service providers have committed to us, within the framework of a standard contractual clause, that a level of data protection equivalent to that of the EU is guaranteed in third countries outside the EU to which data is exported.

​

Google Analytics

​

Provided you have given your consent, this website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited ("Google"). This includes the use of "Universal Analytics," which allows data, sessions, and interactions across multiple devices to be assigned to a pseudonymous user ID, thus enabling the analysis of a user's activities across devices. Google Analytics uses "cookies," which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website will generally be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Please note that Google Analytics has been extended on this website to include IP anonymization in order to ensure the anonymized collection of IP addresses (IP masking). The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at (https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html and https://policies.google.com/?hl=de). On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.

 

Data we send, linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g., user ID), or advertising IDs, is automatically deleted after 14 months. Data whose retention period has expired is automatically deleted once a month.

​

Further information on the terms of use and data protection of Google Analytics can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html and at http://www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/privacyoverview.html.

 

You can prevent the installation and storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings accordingly; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to fully utilize all the functions of this website.

 

Furthermore, you can prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

 

As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent data collection by Google Analytics by clicking the following link. This will set an opt-out cookie that prevents the future collection of your data when you visit this website: Disable Google Analytics. The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you will need to set the opt-out cookie again.

 

Google Ads / Conversion Tracking

 

We also use the online advertising program "Google Ads" and, within the framework of Google Ads, conversion tracking. Google Conversion Tracking is an analytics service provided by Google. When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is placed on your device. These cookies expire after 30 days, do not contain any personally identifiable information, and are therefore not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. This means that cookies cannot be tracked across websites of different Ads customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. Here, customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag.

​

If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies from the domain "googleadservices.com" through a corresponding setting in your browser software (opt-out option). You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. Further information and Google's privacy policy can be found at: http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/ and http://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

 

Google AdSense

​

This website uses Google AdSense, a service for integrating advertisements from Google Inc. ("Google"). Google AdSense uses "cookies," which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. Google AdSense also uses web beacons (invisible graphics). These web beacons allow information such as visitor traffic on these pages to be evaluated. The information generated by cookies and web beacons about your use of this website (including your IP address) and the delivery of advertising formats is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. This information may be transferred by Google to Google's contractual partners. However, Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

​

Google Tag Manager

​

This website uses Google Tag Manager. Google Tag Manager allows you to manage website tags through a single interface. The Tag Manager tool itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-less domain and does not collect any personally identifiable information. The tool triggers other tags, which may in turn collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If you have disabled tracking at the domain or cookie level, this setting will remain in effect for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager. Further information about Google Tag Manager can be found at https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html

 

WhatsApp

​

Our website integrates plugins from the instant messaging service WhatsApp, operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. Clicking on the plugin (green speech bubble with a telephone handset) establishes a connection to WhatsApp's servers. If you are logged into WhatsApp, you can share our page. This sends log data to WhatsApp's servers. This data may include your IP address, the address of the websites you visit that also contain WhatsApp functions, your browser type and settings, the date and time of the request, your usage of WhatsApp, and cookies. Even if you are not logged into WhatsApp, we cannot guarantee that your IP address will not be stored by WhatsApp. For more information, please see WhatsApp's privacy policy: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/#privacy-policy

 

Facebook

​

Our website uses social plugins (“plugins”) from the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”). When you access our website with the plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook's servers. This transmits information to Facebook that you have visited the page.

If you are logged into your Facebook account, clicking the plugin may directly associate your visit to our website with your profile. Even if you do not have a profile, it cannot be ruled out that Facebook will store your IP address.

For information on the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by Facebook, as well as your related rights and settings options to protect your privacy, please refer to Facebook's privacy policy (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/).

​

If you are a Facebook member and do not want Facebook to collect data about you via our website and link it to your member data stored on Facebook, you must log out of Facebook and delete any Facebook cookies before visiting our website. It is also possible to block Facebook social plugins using browser add-ons, such as the "Facebook Blocker".

 

Instagram

​

Our website integrates plugins from the social network Instagram (Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland). You can recognize the Instagram plugin by the “Instagram button” on our website. If you click the Instagram button while logged into your Instagram account, you can link the content of our website to your Instagram profile. This allows Instagram to associate your visit to our site with your user account.

 

Please note that as the provider of this website, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Instagram. Further information on Instagram's privacy policy can be found at http://instagram.com/about/legal/privacy/.

 

YouTube

​

Our website uses plugins from YouTube (owned by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA).

If you are logged into your YouTube account, your visit to our website and all your interactions with the plugin (e.g., clicking the YouTube button) can be associated with your YouTube profile and stored by YouTube. Even if you do not have a YouTube profile, it cannot be ruled out that YouTube will store your IP address. Please also refer to the YouTube Privacy Policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

 

To prevent YouTube from collecting data when you visit our website, please log out of YouTube before visiting. To generally prevent YouTube from accessing your data across websites, you can block YouTube plugins using a browser add-on (e.g., https://www.youtube.com/user/disconnecters).
