Newsletter Tracking
The herFinancialFreedom newsletters utilize what are known as counting pixels. A counting pixel is a small graphic element embedded within emails sent in HTML format. Its purpose is to facilitate log file recording and analysis, allowing for statistical assessment of the success or effectiveness of online marketing campaigns. By means of the embedded counting pixel, herFinancialFreedom is able to ascertain whether an email has been opened by an individual and identify which links within the email have been accessed by that individual.
Any personal data gathered through the counting pixels embedded in our newsletters is stored and analyzed by the data controller. This is done to enhance the distribution of newsletters and to tailor the content of future newsletters more precisely to the preferences of the recipient. Importantly, this personal data is not shared with any third parties. Individuals whose data is collected have the right to withdraw their previously provided consent through the double opt-in process at any time. Upon such withdrawal, the data controller will proceed to delete this personal data. Furthermore, opting out of newsletter reception is automatically regarded as a withdrawal of consent by herFinancialFreedom.

Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update or modify this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be effective upon posting the revised Privacy Policy on our Website. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any updates.
​
Legal or contractual requirements to provide personal data; requirement for contracting; obligation of the affected person to provide personal data; possible consequences of non-provision
We clarify that the provision of personal data is sometimes required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or as a result of contractual obligations (e.g., providing information about contractual partners). In certain instances, it may be necessary to provide personal data in order to enter into a contract that subsequently requires data processing. For example, a data subject may be required to provide personal data if our company is entering into a contract with them. Failure to provide the necessary personal data would result in the inability to conclude the contract with the concerned individual.
Before providing personal data, the data subject must engage with one of our employees. Our employee will assess on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is legally or contractually required, or is necessary for contract fulfillment. They will clarify whether there is an obligation for the data subject to provide the requested personal data, and also explain the potential consequences if the personal data is not provided.
It's imperative that individuals considering the provision of personal data consult our employees beforehand to understand the legal and contractual implications, ensuring informed decision-making. Our employees will provide clarity on the specific circumstances and potential outcomes related to the non-provision of personal data.
