Using PayPal Checkout
We use the PayPal Checkout payment service from PayPal (Europe) S.à.rl et Cie, SCA (22-24 Boulevard Royal L-2449, Luxembourg; "PayPal") on our website. The data processing serves the purpose of offering you the option of paying via this service.

Credit card via PayPal, direct debit via PayPal & "Pay later" via PayPal
For certain payment methods, such as credit card via PayPal, direct debit via PayPal, or "Pay Later" via PayPal, PayPal reserves the right to obtain a credit report based on mathematical-statistical methods using credit reference agencies. For this purpose, PayPal transmits the personal data required for a credit check to a credit reference agency and uses the information received about the statistical probability of payment default to make a balanced decision regarding the establishment, execution, or termination of the contractual relationship. The credit report may include probability values (score values) calculated using scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical methods, which may incorporate address data, among other factors. Your legitimate interests are protected in accordance with legal regulations. The data processing serves the purpose of credit assessment for initiating a contract. This processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, due to our overriding legitimate interest in protecting against payment defaults when PayPal provides services in advance.
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of your personal data based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR by notifying PayPal. Providing this data is necessary for concluding the contract with your chosen payment method. Failure to provide this data will result in the contract not being able to be concluded with your chosen payment method.
Third-party providers
When paying via a third-party payment method, the data required for payment processing is transmitted to PayPal. This processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. To process this payment method, PayPal may then forward the data to the respective provider. This processing is also based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Local third-party providers may include, for example:
Purchase on account via PayPal
When paying via invoice, the data required for payment processing is initially transmitted to PayPal.

This processing is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR. Ratepay may conduct a credit check using mathematical-statistical methods (probability or score values) with credit agencies, following the procedure described above. The data processing serves the purpose of credit assessment for initiating a contract. This processing is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f GDPR, due to our overriding legitimate interest in protecting against payment defaults when Ratepay provides services in advance.

Plug-ins and other
Use of social plug-ins
We use social network plugins on our website. The integration of social plugins and the associated data processing serve the purpose of optimizing advertising for our products.
When social plugins are integrated, a connection is established between your computer and the servers of the social network provider. The plugin is then displayed on the page by sending a message to your browser, provided you have explicitly consented to this. In this process, both your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider's servers. This applies regardless of whether you are registered with or logged into the social network. Even unregistered or logged-out users are subject to this transmission. If you are simultaneously connected to one or more of your social network accounts, the collected information can also be associated with your corresponding profiles. When you use the plugin functions (e.g., by clicking the button), this information is also associated with your user account. You can prevent this association by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
The use of cookies or similar technologies is based on your consent pursuant to Section 25 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 of the German Telemedia Act (TDDG) in conjunction with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a of the GDPR.

We use social network plugins on our website. To ensure you retain control over your data, we use the privacy-friendly "Shariff" buttons.
Without your explicit consent, no links to the servers of the social networks will be established and consequently no data will be transmitted.
"Shariff" is a development by the specialists at the computer magazine c't. It enables greater privacy online and replaces the usual "Share" buttons of social networks. More information about the Shariff project can be found here: https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html
When you click the buttons, a pop-up window will appear where you can log in to the respective provider with your credentials. A direct connection to the social networks will only be established after you have actively logged in.
By logging in, you consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social media provider. This includes, among other things, the transmission of your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited. If you are simultaneously logged into one or more of your social network accounts, the collected information will also be associated with your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this association by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.

Using social plug-ins via the "2-click solution"
We use social network plugins on our website via the "2-click solution". This means that no connection to the social network servers is established and consequently no data is transmitted without your explicit consent.
When plugins are integrated in the standard way, a connection is established between your computer and the servers of the social network provider when you visit pages on our website that contain such a plugin. The plugin is then displayed on the page by sending a message to your browser. In this process, both your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider's servers. This applies regardless of whether you are registered with or logged into the social network. Even unregistered or logged-out users are subject to this transmission. If you are also logged into the Facebook social network, this information will be associated with your personal user account. When you use the plugin functions (e.g., by clicking the button), this information will also be associated with your user account, which you can only prevent by logging out before using the plugin. To ensure you retain control over your data, we have decided to initially deactivate the corresponding button. You can recognize this by the grayed-out button. Without your explicit consent – in the form of activating the button – no connection to the social network's server will be established and consequently no data will be transmitted.
Only when you activate the button will it become active (highlighted in color) and a direct connection to the social network's servers will be established.
By activating this feature, you consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social network provider. This includes, among other things, the transmission of your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited. If you are simultaneously logged into one or more of your social network accounts, the collected information will also be associated with your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this association by logging out of your social network accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
The social networks listed below are integrated using the "2-click function". Further information on the scope and purpose of data collection and use, as well as your related rights and options for protecting your privacy, can be found in the linked privacy policies of the providers.

Using social plug-ins via the "2-click solution"
We use social network plugins on our website via the "2-click solution". This means that no connection to the social network servers is established and consequently no data is transmitted without your explicit consent.
When plugins are integrated in the standard way, a connection is established between your computer and the servers of the social network provider when you visit pages on our website that contain such a plugin. The plugin is then displayed on the page by sending a message to your browser. In this process, both your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider's servers. This applies regardless of whether you are registered with or logged into the social network. Even unregistered or logged-out users are subject to this transmission. If you are also logged into the Facebook social network, this information will be associated with your personal user account. When you use the plugin functions (e.g., by clicking the button), this information will also be associated with your user account, which you can only prevent by logging out before using the plugin. To ensure you retain control over your data, we have decided to initially deactivate the corresponding button. You can recognize this by the grayed-out button. Without your explicit consent – in the form of activating the button – no connection to the social network's server will be established and consequently no data will be transmitted.
Only when you activate the button will it become active (highlighted in color) and a direct connection to the social network's servers will be established.
By activating this feature, you consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social network provider. This includes, among other things, the transmission of your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited. If you are simultaneously logged into one or more of your social network accounts, the collected information will also be associated with your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this association by logging out of your social network accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
The social networks listed below are integrated using the "2-click function". Further information on the scope and purpose of data collection and use, as well as your related rights and options for protecting your privacy, can be found in the linked privacy policies of the providers.
