4. Exhibition invitations (newsletter)
If you sign up for exhibition invitations, we process your first name and email address to send you invitations to our exhibitions. Sign-up uses the double opt-in procedure: you receive an email and must confirm your address before you are added. We store the time of sign-up and confirmation to document your consent. The legal basis is your consent, Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time via the unsubscribe link in every email or by writing to info@shirkoren.com.
The invitations are sent via Brevo, a service of Sendinblue SAS, 17 rue Salneuve, 75017 Paris, France. Your data is stored on Brevo’s servers in the EU. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Brevo. Brevo may record whether an email was opened and which links were clicked, in order to evaluate our mailings.
