"fashionfreax.net" constitutes the services set forth in this contract and/or the FashionFreax GmbH. This Privacy Policy supplements the "Terms of Use of the fashionfreax.net". Delicate and responsible handling of the individual-related data of all users is an issue of extreme importance to fashionfreax.net. All laws and regulations regarding privacy are meticulously complied with by fashionfreax.net. These data privacy laws mainly include the data privacy regulations of the TMG (German Act for Telemedia Services), the BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act), the data privacy regulations of the TKG §§ 85 ff. (German Telecommunications Act) and the legal provisions specified by the EU. The following Privacy Policy gives information about how the protection and the security of all individual-related data at fashionfreax.net is ensured according to the currently effective statutory regulations.

1. Individual-related data

1.1 Information required for registration

fashionfreax.net is a social network. As does any network among people, fashionfreax.net relies on the principle that its users, communicate, to a certain extent, information about themselves to the other users which is also accurate. That is in fact the only way a network such as fashiofreax.net can function. Therefore, right from the start, i.e. while registering, all users are asked to provide the following information about themselves:

• - User name
• - Email address
• - Password and password repetition
• - City
• - Country

Only individual parts of this information is made accessible to other users, namely:

• - User name
• - City
• - Country

The remaining information, i. e. email address and the password only serve administrative purposes of the user account by fashionfreax.net. Of course, the password remains confidential and is encrypted. The user can approve private information for friends.

1.2 Voluntary information

Furthermore, there are numerous opportunities for users to voluntarily provide additional information about themselves in the various categories of fashionfreax.net (e.g. favourite designer, handbag contents, geodata, etc.). Although this information is not required, it can be helpful and useful in contacting other users. Each user independently decides as he/she sees fit, which information he/she would like to provide and which not.

1.3 Degree of privacy in the profile

By means of the personal settings in your own profile, there is also the opportunity of only making certain information accessible to a specific group of people (friends).

2. Purpose

2.1 Collection, storage, processing

The collection, storage, processing and application of the individual-related data stated above under item 1. by fashionfreax.net is effected according to the legal provisions (in particular of the §§ 12 ff. TMG -German Act for Telemedia Services and §§ 28, 29 ff. BDSG - Federal Data Protection Act).

2.2 Intended uses

fashionfreax.net uses the collected data for the following purposes, whereas not all data is actually used for all purposes:

• - The data provided by the user during registration (item 1.1) is used by fashionfreax.net for the grounds and administration of the contractual relationship.

• - The data which accumulates while using the fashionfreax.net platform is used by fashionfreax.net for the provision of the services offered by fashionfreax.net.

• - To continuously improve the services of fashionfreax.net, e. g. to establish new categories or offers, for advertising purposes and market research, fashionfreax.net can analyse the behaviour of its users in the network and create pseudonymised user profiles, provided that the user has not exercised his/her legal rights and objected to this use. This enables fashionfreax.net e.g. to find out on which days and at what time of day the offers of the fashionfreax.net websites are particularly popular and how much data volume is created on the fashionfreax.net websites. Furthermore, by using the log files fashionfreax.net can recognise possible errors, e.g. inaccurate links or programme errors and therefore, use the log files for the enhancement of the fashionfreax.net websites. Under no circumstances does the evaluation of these user profiles take place using individual-related data, i.e. the user's identity remains unknown. In any case, fashionfreax.net ensures that according to technical as well as personal and organisational aspects the pseudonymised user profiles are not consolidated with the users' personal data (§ 15 subsection 3 TMG - German Act for Telemedia Services).

3. No data is transferred to third parties

fashionfreax.net does not transfer its users individual-related data to third parties unless the user has previously given his/her explicit consent or there is a legal obligation to transfer data. As far as the user has given his/her consent, he/she can revoke it at any time with effect for the future by means of brief notification (email, fax, letter).

4. Cookies

Cookies are small text files which are either temporarily filed in the main memory or permanently saved on the hard drive ("session Cookie" or "permanent Cookie"). Session Cookies are not saved on the user's hard drive but rather expire automatically when the Internet browser is closed. The users are assigned anonymous user IDs by the placement of Cookies but in no case are programmes carried out on the users' computers or let alone computer viruses transmitted. fashionfreax.net uses Cookies for the authentication of the user during login. The application of Cookies serves the purpose of guaranteeing smooth operation and improving the services of fashionfreax.net. Using the settings of their Internet browser programme, all users can decide for themselves whether they choose to accept Cookies, to be informed each time Cookies are placed or to object to all Cookies. However, fashionfreax.net points out that the use of the fashionfreax.net offers is not possible if Cookies are not accepted.

5. Server Log Files

Each time a page is accessed by a user, his/her Internet browser transmits access data which is automatically stored in so-called server log files by fashionfreax.net. fashionfreax.net cannot readily attribute this data to specific individuals. A consolidation of this data with other data sources, in particular with the individual-related user data, does not take place. To maintain the database fashionfreax.net creates so-called backups which in each case are overwritten after approx. four weeks and are thus irrevocably deleted. As far as these backups contain server log files, these are also deleted. In the case of a complete deletion of a user profile the server log files are also deleted. The server log files contain the following information: IP address with which the computer (however not the user) can be identified, remote host (name and IP address of the computer which requested the site), time, status, amount of transferred data and the Internet site from which the user accessed the requested site (referrer), product and version information of the used browser (user agent). For this purpose fashionfreax.net uses the standardised "combined" logfile format of the Apache webserver. However, fashionfreax.net reserves the right to subsequently inspect the logfiles using the last known IP address of such fashionfreax.net members who, due to concrete facts, are suspected of using these fashionfreax.net websites and/or the fashionfreax.net services in an illegal manner or in a manner contrary to contract. This serves the protection of the fashionfreax.net members, the security of the fashionfreax.net member data as well as the fashionfreax.net websites and the fashionfreax.net services.

6. Data security (firewalls, antivirus technologies, etc.)

The firewalls applied and continuously updated by fashionfreax.net and other security systems are to protect the users against viruses and unauthorised external access to the fashionfreax.net as far as possible. fashionfreax.net is obligated to maintain an appropriate level of protection and to regularly adapt the applied security technologies to the currently best available technology. Nevertheless, users should be aware of the fact that due to new viruses which are constantly emerging and other means of attacking secured data systems of Internet services, a one hundred percent reliable protection against attacks cannot be guaranteed. fashionfreax.net is not responsible for antivirus protection outside of the network. fashionfreax.net is also not responsible for damage and destruction of data by unknown viruses. fashionfreax.net will take criminal and civil legal action against every detected attack by hackers and the like.

7. Information

Every user has the right to receive free information from fashionfreax.net regarding his/her stored individual-related data. The request for information is to be sent to fashionfreax.net in the written form. A notarised copy of an official and valid ID card is to be attached to the information request. The information will be sent to the address indicated on the user's ID card by mail.

8. Correction, deletion and blocking

8.1 Previous data

As far as the user alters or corrects information he/she has provided and in doing so deletes old entries, the data previously entered by him/her is automatically completely deleted. An application for correction or deletion is not required.

8.2 Correction of data

Regardless of that, users have the right to demand the correction of incorrect data which is stored on them at fashionfreax.net at all times. But the easiest alternative for users is to change their entries accordingly by themselves.

As far as users have irrevocably deleted their profile and in doing so ended their membership at fashionfreax.net, all data which has previously been entered by them is automatically completely deleted. An application for deletion is not required.

8.4 Deletion

Regardless of that, users have the right to demand the deletion of all of their collected individual-related data which is stored on them at fashionfreax.net at all times. In this case however, the easiest alternative is also for users to delete their entries themselves.

8.5 Contact

As far as the user demands the alteration, correction or deletion of his/her individual-related data, this can be effected via email, fax or letter. The request must at least contain the following information for the correct allocation:

• - Name, first name
• - Email
• - Password
• - Address
• - Identification by means of copy of identification (valid passport or ID card)

8.6 Deleted data

fashionfreax.net points out that due to caching systems and the interconnection of proxy servers deleted data can, under certain circumstances, still be accessible up to 24 hours. Image files can, if applicable, be accessible for an even longer period of time.
