Cookie Policy: Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website is operated using Wix.com. Wix uses cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for the secure and stable operation of the website and for its basic functions. These include, for example, technologies used for session management, security, fraud detection, and technical stability. In addition, depending on the functions, apps, and integrated services used on our website, other cookies and similar technologies may be used. Non-essential cookies are only used with your consent where legally required. You can adjust your cookie settings at any time via our cookie banner or the settings available there. Further information about the cookies used by Wix and their respective purposes can be found in the Wix documentation on cookies.
Data Processing on the Website
As the association does not pursue any commercial objectives and is registered as a non-profit organization, it largely refrains from using marketing tools and third-party providers. Wix.com is used as the website service provider for the implementation and technical operation of our website. As part of operating the website, Wix may use cookies and similar technologies. Details are provided in the section “Cookies and Similar Technologies” of this Privacy Policy. Where additional third-party services or functions are used on the website, their use and the associated processing of personal data are carried out only in accordance with the applicable legal requirements and, where required, with prior consent. Personal data is generally stored only for as long as necessary for the respective purpose or as required by statutory retention obligations. Further information about data protection at Wix and the processing of personal data by Wix can be found in the Wix Privacy Policy
Data for Sending the Monthly Quotation
Visitors to the website can subscribe to receive a monthly quotation. Subscription requires consent. For this purpose, the visitor's email address is collected and electronically processed by Wix.com via a form and transmitted to the association.
The email address collected is subsequently stored locally by the board in an email distribution list and is used exclusively for sending the quotation. Consent to receive the monthly quotation may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future. Notification by email to our email address is sufficient for this purpose.
Contact Form
The website's contact form allows users to send messages to the association. Use of the contact form is voluntary and initiated by the visitor. The name and email address are required for contacting us. Additional information may be provided voluntarily.
The data submitted via the contact form is processed electronically and transmitted to the association by Wix.com. The data is used exclusively to process and respond to the respective inquiry, unless the inquiry gives rise to further processing.
Personal Data in Connection with Association Membership
The Sri Aurobindo Society Deutschland e.V. collects personal data such as name, address, telephone number, email address, and voluntary information about occupation as part of the membership application. Personal data collected in connection with membership is processed on the basis of the data processing consent given by the respective person in the membership application and is retained in accordance with statutory requirements. The data provided is stored locally by the association in electronic data processing systems and is accessible exclusively to authorized members of the board.
Personal data is generally not disclosed to third parties unless there is a legal obligation to do so or disclosure is necessary for the administration of the membership.
Data for Sending the Newsletter
With the express consent of the recipients, the association regularly sends members and interested parties a newsletter by email or post containing current information about the association's program. For this purpose, the contact details required for sending the newsletter, in particular an email address or postal address, are processed. Consent to receive the newsletter may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future. Notification by email to our email address is sufficient for this purpose.
Withdrawal of Consent to Data Processing
The storage and processing of data is based on the consent given in the membership application. Consent may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future. Notification by email to our email address is sufficient for this purpose. The lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal of consent remains unaffected by the withdrawal. Where statutory retention obligations apply, data may also be stored after withdrawal of consent or termination of membership for the duration of the applicable statutory retention period.
Right of Access, Rectification and Erasure
Data subjects have, within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, the right to obtain information about the personal data stored about them, to request the rectification of inaccurate personal data and, where the statutory requirements are met, to request the erasure of their personal data.
