GMB Promotions

Data Protection

Privacy Policy

This policy explains how GMB Promotions processes personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR / DSGVO).

1. Controller

[PLACEHOLDER: FULL LEGAL NAME]
[PLACEHOLDER: STREET ADDRESS]
[PLACEHOLDER: POSTAL CODE AND CITY]
Email: info@gmbpromotions.com

See our Impressum for full legal-entity details.

2. Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted on dedicated cloud servers (Amazon Web Services). When you visit gmbpromotions.com, our hosting infrastructure automatically records technical information sent by your browser — IP address, date and time of the request, browser type and version, operating system, and the referring URL — in server log files. This data is processed to ensure the technical operation and security of the site (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, legitimate interest) and is not merged with any other data source.

3. Cookies

This site does not use analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies, and artist bookings are handled entirely by our own servers — no third-party booking widget or script is loaded on this site. The only cookie set is a strictly necessary NEXT_LOCALE cookie that remembers your language choice (English/German); it is exempt from consent under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR as it is required for the site to function and carries no tracking purpose.

4. Contact and booking inquiries

Every contact point on this site (Contact page, artist booking CTAs) is a plain mailto: link — clicking it opens your own email client. We do not run a server-side contact form, so no message content is transmitted through or stored by this website itself. Once you send an email to info@/bookings@/events@gmbpromotions.com, standard email processing applies: the message and your email address are processed by us (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, to respond to your inquiry) and are retained only as long as needed to handle the correspondence, unless a longer retention period is legally required.

5. Shop and checkout (shop.gmbpromotions.com)

Purchases and checkout are handled on a separate site, shop.gmbpromotions.com (WooCommerce), with payments processed by Stripe. That site has its own privacy policy covering order, account, and payment data — please review it there before completing a purchase. This privacy policy covers gmbpromotions.com only.

6. Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

  • request access to the personal data we hold about you;
  • request correction of inaccurate data;
  • request erasure of your data;
  • request restriction of processing;
  • receive your data in a portable format; and
  • object to processing based on legitimate interest.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@gmbpromotions.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site's functionality changes (e.g. if analytics or a server-side contact form are added in the future). The current version always applies; check back periodically for changes.

Note: this page contains placeholder fields marked [PLACEHOLDER: ...] that must be filled in with real business details before this site is considered launch-ready.
