If we commission third parties to process data on the basis of a so-called “contract processing contract”, this is done on the basis of Art. 28 GDPR.

(a) Mailgun - newsletter delivery

Grobmeier Solutions uses the Mailgun service, to send the newsletter. This service allows Grobmeier Solutions to manage a database of email contacts internally to communicate with users via email.

The service manages data on which date and time emails were read, as well as when the user interacted with incoming emails, for example by clicking on links contained in the email. This is done by so-called web beacons, also called tracking pixels. These are small image files that allow an evaluation of user behavior. The user can object to this tracking at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. Such an evaluation is not possible even if the user has disabled the display of images in his email program by default. However, in this case, the newsletter can not be fully displayed and the user may not be able to fully use all features.
