Some of the cookies we use are deleted again after the end of the browser session, i.e. once you have closed your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your device and enable us or our partner companies to recognize your browser on your next visit (persistent cookies). 

You can change your browser settings to generally block cookies or to inform you when cookies are sent to your device. There are several ways of dealing with cookies. Please use your browser instructions or help menu to learn more about how to adjust your browser settings.

  • On our website, we use required and security-relevant cookies. These are cookies that are used to make use of the website and navigate it faster or more safely and that guarantee special functions that are absolutely required for a normal visit to the website and for navigating it. For example, your cookie settings are saved by such cookies so our cookie notice will be displayed only once. They allow for sending forms securely via our website to prevent our systems from being attacked by a CSRF (cross-site request forgery), or ensure that a user is assigned to the services they have booked, his/her digital shopping cart, My Bike area or language and country settings.
  • Data processing is based on point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR. The use of these cookies is technically required to make the website available to you in a legally compliant manner, to be able to store your cookie settings on the website or to enable a purchase or paid services via our website.

  • The website also uses the security cookie "__cfduid" from Cloudflare, Inc, 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, California 94107, USA ("Cloudflare").

    Friendly Captcha is a novel, privacy-friendly protection solution that makes it difficult for automated programs and scripts (“bots”) to access our website. We have integrated a program code provided by Friendly Captcha into our website (e.g. for our contact forms). When visitors access the protected areas of the website, the Friendly Captcha widget forwards the requesting device to the Friendly Captcha servers in order to obtain a calculation task from them. When solving the calculation task, the requesting device uses certain system resources and sends the calculation result back to our web server. The latter contacts the Friendly Captcha server via an interface and receives an answer as to whether the puzzle was solved correctly by the end device. Depending on the result, we can add security rules to enquiries or requests through our website, for instance to process or reject them.
    The data is only used to protect against spam and bots, as described above. Friendly Captcha does not place or read cookies on the requesting device. IP addresses are only stored in hashed (one-way-encrypted) form and do not allow us or Friendly Captcha to draw conclusions about an individual. Any personal data stored will be deleted within 30 days. The legal basis for the processing of data includes our legitimate interests in protecting our website against improper access by bots, including spam, and protecting it against attacks (e.g. bulk requests), Art. 6 para. 1f) GDPR. For more information on privacy with the use of Friendly Captcha, visit https://friendlycaptcha.com/de/legal/privacy-end-users/

The legal basis for the aforementioned processing is your consent under point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR.

 

App version as of 2.0: Transmission of your data to Mapbox and to third countries

c) Push messages

You may subscribe to receive so-called push messages.
You will receive push messages with information about the status of your bike. For one, we use the services of Pusher, which is operated by Pusher Ltd. (07489873) 6 New Street Square, New Fetter Lane, London, England, EC4A 3AQ. Pusher Ltd. is our processor within the meaning of Article 28 GDPR and is contractually bound to compliance with GDPR.

If you use an Android device, we also use the Firebase Cloud Messaging Service (“Firebase”) operated by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4 D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”).

In such cases, a reasonable level of data protection is guaranteed by conclusion of the EU standard contractual clauses. No other Firebase services, such as tracking, are used.
To sign up for push messages you must agree to receive push messages in the RX Connect App. This process will be documented and stored. Login time and a push token or device ID are stored. In case of an Android device, a Firebase installation ID is generated from the device ID and is also stored. This enables Firebase to determine which devices push messages should be sent to. These data serve the purpose of sending you push messages and also are proof of your registration.
We statistically analyze push messages and thus are able to see if and when push messages are displayed and clicked on. This enables us to determine which push messages are of interest to recipients so as to match future messages to the presumed interests of all recipients and hence to increase the interest in our offering.

 

Legal basis

The legal basis for the aforementioned processing is your consent under point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR.

You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. Your withdrawal does not affect the legality of any previous processing. To exercise this right, you may withdraw your consent under "messages" in the system settings.

The Supplement to the Privacy Policy (Riese & Müller RX Services) applies to the processing of your data in connection with your booked RX Services used via the RX Connect App, including the processing of movement, location data and trip statistics.

 

f) Web Views

This means that parts of our website will be displayed in our RX Connect App. Our privacy policy applies to the website in this regard, including the use of cookies as described there, see sections B and C.

In accordance with the applicable data protection regulations, we may disclose your personal data to external processors (Article 28 GDPR) acting on our behalf and providing services in connection with our RX Connected App (e.g. host IT service providers).

C. Data processing when using our X profile

In doing so, profile data (in particular the name of the user) as well as the respective interaction (e.g. the content of the message) are processed by us so that we can deal with the users' enquiries and respond to their requests.

2. As the operator of the X profile, we use the "X Analytics" function provided to us by X. Through X Analytics, we receive statistical data from X (including but not limited to post activity and information about our followers, such as origins and interests).  This statistical data is transmitted to us only in anonymised form, i.e. we cannot assign this data to any specific visitor to our site. In addition, we have no access to the data on which the statistics are based.

3. Further information on data processing by X can be found via the following link: https://twitter.com/en/privacy.

D. Purposes of processing

We maintain our X profile to promote our products and to be able to communicate with you. We also use the data provided by the X Analytics function for this purpose. This data helps us to better understand your interests and to reach our target group more effectively. In turn, this allows us to target interest-based advertising and provide more relevant content on our X profile. You can find more information about us and our products on the following website https://www.r-m.de/; our privacy policy can be found here: https://www.r-m.de/privacy-policy/.

X also uses the data which it collects via our X profile for market research and advertising purposes, i.e. in particular to analyse your behaviour, to create user profiles and to provide personalised advertising (also on behalf of third-party companies).

You can make use of an "opt-out" option here and influence the advertising displayed to you in future as a user of the X service. For more information and links, please see the X privacy policy:

E. Legal basis 

The processing of personal data takes place on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 section 1 p. 1 (f) GDPR in effective communication and interaction with users, as well as to provide optimised presentation of our products and services, from which you as a user also benefit.

At any time, you have the right to refuse this type of data processing, which is based on our legitimate interest, on grounds relating to your particular situation. To exercise this right, you can contact us at any time using the contact details provided in A. and B. above.

F. Processing of your data by  X

X processes your personal data each time you visit our X profile. To the best of our knowledge, X also uses cookies (small text files that are stored on the various end devices of the users). If the user is registered with X, X will assign the collected data to the user's personal X profile; this enables X to track user behaviour (also across different end devices) and to create user profiles. In addition, X processes the data in order to display personalised advertising on the X platform or on third-party sites.

We have no influence on this data processing. The purpose and scope of data processing by X, as well as the relevant rights and setting options for protecting the privacy of users, can be found in X's privacy policy at https://twitter.com/en/privacy, in X's cookie policy at https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-cookies#more-privacy, and in the policy on data use by X when you use websites or apps of X partners at https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-services-and-corporate-affiliates
