Gathering, processing and use of data when using email functions/internal messaging system
-
SMP offers various email functions on the Portal. Among these are, in particular, the "Send Message" function (for sending inquiries to advertisers) and the "Email Alerts" function (in order to receive up-to-date information on new Offers).
-
When using an email function users are required to submit an email address and, in the case of "Send message", also a name. Such data is processed and used solely in order to carry out the corresponding function (i.e. in particular for the transfer of the message to an advertiser or the sending of Email Alerts). In the case of the alert function the data is stored until the corresponding alert expires.
-
In some cities, an internal messaging system is implemented to get in contact. To be able to use it, the user has to be registered. The account stores a title, a first name and surname as well as the user鈥檚 email address. In case an Ad is contacted, the email address is stored at SMP for the exchange of messages. Thus, the user can view the messages based on the conversation history in the menu item 鈥淢essages鈥. The user can choose whether he or she would like to receive a notification about new messages to the private email address. If the user has saved a picture in his or her profile, this profile picture is displayed as well as the public name in the conversation history. If the user deletes his or her account, the personal data given in the registration process will be deleted. The conversation history remains unchanged; the personal data is replaced by the information 鈥渄eleted user鈥.
Data processing when placing an advertisement/upon signing up
-
When placing an advertisement users are simultaneously registered on the Portal. The scope of the data to be gathered is determined by the online form which can be accessed at any time by clicking on the menu item "Create an Ad". In the "Personal information" section SMP requests a title, a first name and surname, post and email address, a user name and password chosen by the user, as well as a date of birth.
-
The data collected when placing an advertisement/upon signing up is used to set up a user account and to develop the publication of advertisements. It is always evident from the online form what personal information is publicly visible when an advertisement is published. All fields marked with an asterisk are required.
-
In the registration process at the portal, the user is asked for several different consents to the processing of data.
-
The user鈥檚 consent that SMP processes and saves his or her personal data for using the portals run by SMP is obligatory to be able to create an account and an ad. The user should confirm the following by clicking: 鈥淚 agree that SMP GmbH & Co. KG processes and saves my personal data for using the portals run by SMP GmbH & Co. KG.鈥
What does that mean? We never have and never will give your personal data to third parties unauthorized. We treat your data with the utmost privacy. When creating an account at 黑料不打烊.de or Onu.com you have to select a title and to indicate your first name and last name as well as your email address. This information is necessary to create an account, to get in contact with other users and thus, to allow the successful brokerage of housing.
When creating an ad you additionally have to indicate your date of birth and your address. Your date of birth can later be used for verifying you as the account holder in case of login problems for instance. The object address is displayed in the ad. This has proven its worth since an existing address gives people searching for accommodation a reliable impression and many users limit their search to a restricted geographical area. You can choose from five options how your name is displayed publicly. Entering a telephone number is possible, it is voluntary though.
-
If the user wishes to receive individual tips and hints for his or her search, he or she can give his or her consent. If the user does not agree, he or she will still be able to use the service of 黑料不打烊.de. The user can edit the settings via 鈥淢y Profile鈥 at any time. If the user wishes to receive the said information, we will ask him to confirm this by clicking: 鈥淚 agree that the customer care sends individual tips and hints for my search to me.鈥
What does that mean? It is our aim to help you find a new home or a new roommate or your next tenant quickly. Therefore, we would love to send tips to you by email occasionally. This does not refer to an automated newsletter, but to hints specifically designed for your search.
-
If the user wishes to receive general information about the service of 黑料不打烊.de, he or she can give his or her consent. If the user does not agree, he or she will still be able to use the service of 黑料不打烊.de. The user can edit the settings via 鈥淢y Profile鈥 at any time. If the user wishes to receive the said information, we will ask him to confirm this by clicking: 鈥淚 agree that the customer care sends general information about the service of 黑料不打烊.de to me.鈥
What does that mean? The satisfaction of our users is very important to us. Therefore, we would be pleased if we could occasionally send surveys on how to improve our service or newsletters regarding new features to you. We do not send any advertising mails by third parties.
-
In the case of a registered user accessing the Portal (in particular where a user accesses advertisements he has placed) SMP asks for the user's email address or user name and password in order to identify the latter as a registered user.
