The data shall be used for the purposes described in more detail below:
IP addresses
IP addresses are required for diagnosing problems, administering the website and conducting demographic analyses. If the customer watches www.clipmyhorse.tv, only the domain name, however not the customer’s e-mail address, is identified. The e-mail address can only be identified if the customer directly gives it to us by filling in a form or sending us an e-mail.
Cookies
Cookies are used to personalise content, in order to customise the content provided to user behaviour.
User registration
www.clipmyhorse.tv includes forms which customers can fill in to request information or content.
Links to other sites
www.clipmyhorse.tv includes links to other websites, belonging to third party providers. ClipMyHorse.TV Operations GmbH is not responsible for whether the data privacy precautions taken by other websites are sufficient.
Google Analytics
www.clipmyhorse.tv uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies, meaning text files stored on the customer's PC that allow for analysing the customer's use of www.clipmyhorse.tv. The use information generated by the cookie, including the IP addresses, is transmitted to a server of Google in the USA and saved there, in regard to which ClipMyHorse.TV Operations GmbH has extended the Google Analytics Code to include the “_anonymizelp()” function. By including this supplementary code, the last 8 bits of any additional processing of the IP address queried are deleted. Thus, any identification of the visitor to the website is made impossible. However, it remains possible to approximately localise the IP address, which is permissible under data privacy laws.
Google will use this information to evaluate use of the website, compile reports on website activity and traffic for the website operator, and provide further services associated with use of the website and use of the Internet. Google will also, if applicable, transmit such information to third parties, in so far as the latter is statutorily provided for or third parties process such data on behalf of Google.
The customer may prevent the installation of cookies by setting his or her browser settings accordingly. It is, however, pointed out that, in such a case, the customer cannot use all the functions of www.clipmyhorse.tv in their entirety.
In that respect, Google is providing a beta version of the “Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on” for Internet Explorer (7 and 8), Google Chrome (4.x and above) and Mozilla Firefox (3.5 and above). According to Google, the add-on deactivates any transmission of data via Google Analytics JavaScript.
Social plug-ins:
ClipMyHorse.TV Operations GmbH uses social plug-ins of the social network facebook.com, which is run by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”) on the website www.clipmyhorse.tv. The plug-ins are marked with a Facebook logo. If the customer accesses the website www.clipmyhorse.tv, the customer's browser directly connects to Facebook’s servers. The content of the plug-ins is transmitted directly from Facebook to the customer’s browser, and the content of the plug-in is embedded in the website www.clipmyhorse.tv by that browser.
Through the individual plug-ins being embedded, Facebook receives the information that the customer has accessed the corresponding page of www.clipmyhorse.tv. Should the customer be logged in on Facebook, Facebook is able to assign the customer's visit to the page to his or her Facebook account. The purpose and scope of the data being gathered and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as any rights and customisation options of the customer in this respect to protect his or her private sphere is to be inferred from the data privacy notes issued by Facebook.
Should the customer not wish Facebook to gather data in the aforementioned manner, the customer needs to log out of Facebook prior to visiting www.clipmyhorse.tv.
ClipMyHorse.TV Operations GmbH expressly points out to the customer that, according to the current state of the art, data protection and data security cannot be guaranteed for data transmission in public networks such as the Internet. The customer knows that, from a technical perspective, the provider can at any time inspect the customer’s data stored on the web servers. Other participants on the Internet are also, under certain circumstances, technically in a position to access net security without authorisation and monitor the exchange of information. The customer shall himself or herself take care to ensure the security and protection of the data transmitted by him or her over the Internet and stored on web servers.
