b. Statistical analysis of the use of the LTM website and reach extension
In order to prepare a statistical analysis of how the LTM website is used, LTM GmbH uses Google Analytics, which also involves the use of cookies to enable an analysis of your browsing habits. In this way, LTM GmbH can improve the quality of the LTM website and its content. LTM GmbH receives information on how the website is used and can use this to continually optimise the LTM website.
LTM GmbH processes your personal data for the purpose of preparing a statistical analysis of use of the LTM website on the following legal basis:
- Your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR.
Google Analytics
LTM GmbH uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc., USA, on the LTM website. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", which are text files stored on your computer, to enable an analysis of how you use the website. The information generated by the cookies about your use of the LTM website is generally sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If IP anonymisation is activated on the LTM website, your IP address will first be truncated by Google. This is done within the Member States of the European Union or other countries that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a server in the USA and truncated there. Google will use this information on behalf of LTM GmbH to evaluate usage of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to provide other services to the website operator relating to website usage and Internet usage. The IP address transmitted from your browser for Google Analytics will not be linked to other data collected by Google.
LTM GmbH uses Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizeIp()” on the LTM website. This truncates the IP addresses for further processing and excludes the possibility of direct personal reference.
LTM GmbH uses Google Analytics only with your consent. Once given, this consent can be revoked by
- preventing cookies from being stored by changing the settings of your browser software accordingly; however, LTM GmbH would like to point out that, if you do so, you may not be able to make full use of all of the features of the LTM website
- downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en
- in order to prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data on the LTM website in future. This sets an opt-out cookie in your browser. It should be noted that the opt-out cookie must be activated in every browser used on all end devices and must also be reactivated if necessary once all cookies in a browser have been deleted.
For more information about the terms of service for Google Analytics and data protection in this context, please visit https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/
Google Analytics Remarketing
The LTM website uses the Google Analytics Remarketing feature in conjunction with the cross-device features of Google AdWords. This is provided by Google Inc., USA.
This feature makes it possible to link the advertising target groups generated by Google Analytics Remarketing with the cross-device features of Google AdWords. This allows personalised advertising tailored to your interests and based on your previous usage and browsing habits on one device (e.g. your mobile phone) to be displayed on any of your other devices (e.g. a tablet or PC).
Provided you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browser history with your Google account for this purpose. This means that the same personalised advertising can be shown on any device that you use to log in to your Google account.
To support this feature, Google Analytics collects users’ Google-authenticated IDs and temporarily links them to our Google Analytics data in order to define and create target groups for cross-device advertising.
You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by deactivating personalised advertising in your own Google account: www.google.com/settings/ads
The data collected in your Google account will only be aggregated with your consent. This consent can be given to Google or revoked according to Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. In the case of data collection operations that are not associated with your Google account (for example, because you do not have a Google account or have objected to your data being aggregated), data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The fact that LTM GmbH, as the website operator, has an interest in the anonymised analysis of website visitors for advertising purposes constitutes the legitimate interest.
More information and the data protection provisions can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.
Facebook Remarketing
LTM GmbH uses the Custom Audiences remarketing feature, provided by Facebook Inc., USA, on the LTM website.
This allows website users to receive targeted, interest-based advertising when visiting the social network Facebook.
The Facebook remarketing tag has been implemented in the LTM website for this purpose. Each time the website is accessed, a direct connection is established to the Facebook servers via this tag. This tag transmits information on the LTM pages you have visited to the Facebook server. Facebook links this information to your personal Facebook account. When you log on to Facebook, you will then receive personalised, interest-based Facebook ads.
Processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR based on the legitimate interest in the above-mentioned purpose.
You have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of your personal data based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. To do so, simply disable the Custom Audiences remarketing feature at https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=ads#_=_

In the shop, you can place individual items from the product range in the shopping basket. All items and quantities are saved in the shopping basket. In order to simplify the ordering process, LTM GmbH saves any order that has not yet been completed so that it can be completed on the next visit.
After you place your order, LTM GmbH acts as an intermediary and forwards it on your behalf to the retailer of local souvenirs, tourist literature or maps that you selected during the order process. In the process, in addition to the data already collected during the registration process such as first and last name, contact details (address, where applicable telephone number, email address, etc.), and an alternative delivery address, where applicable and an alternative delivery address, where applicable, the following data is collected:
- item(s) from the product range

e. Law enforcement
LTM GmbH also processes your personal data to enable it to assert its own rights and enforce its own legal claims. In addition, LTM GmbH processes your personal data to defend the company against legal claims. Finally, LTM GmbH processes your personal data to the extent necessary for the prevention and prosecution of criminal offences.
LTM GmbH processes your personal data for this purpose on the following legal bases:
- to safeguard the legitimate interests of LTM GmbH pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, insofar as LTM GmbH is able to assert legal claims or defend itself in the event of legal disputes, or where this enables criminal offences to be prevented or investigated.
f. Advertising purposes such as newsletters, surveys, etc.
With your consent, LTM GmbH uses your data for advertising purposes, such as sending LTM newsletters or information about current offers, events, etc., in Leipzig and the Leipzig Region. For this purpose, LTM GmbH processes not only mandatory information such as your email address, but also other information that you provide voluntarily. LTM GmbH uses the voluntary information to permanently improve the information experience and make it more customer-friendly, to enable an individualised approach, to analyse preferences and to inform about products that fit best and make advertising more useful and interesting. The notifications can be cancelled at any time by clicking on the link provided in the newsletter and thus cancelling the subscription.
LTM GmbH uses a newsletter service provider to send you its newsletters. This service provider enables LTM to collect information, such as the time the newsletter was opened, information about your email client and device, your click behaviour and the topics that you viewed. LTM GmbH uses this information in pseudonymised form only. By analysing and evaluating this information, LTM GmbH is able to make technical and content-related improvements to the LTM newsletter and its offerings so that it can send you personalised advertising.
The analysis and evaluation of this information helps prevent LTM GmbH from sending you random advertising. Instead, you will be sent advertising such as newsletters, product recommendations or invitations by email or post, that relate to your areas of interest. To this end, LTM GmbH also monitors which advertising emails you open to avoid sending you unnecessary emails. Where you have given your email address to LTM GmbH in connection with the purchase of goods or services, this can be used in future by LTM GmbH to send you newsletters. In this case, the newsletter will only be used for the direct marketing of similar LTM goods or services.
Furthermore, LTM GmbH uses the contact data with your consent for marketing purposes insofar as promotional brochures or other materials are ordered, event registrations are made or you have taken part in a survey.
LTM GmbH processes your data in order to send newsletters and customise communications on the following legal bases:
- provided that LTM GmbH has been granted consent via the double opt-in procedure, in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR.
- provided that LTM GmbH has been informed of the email address in connection with the purchase of goods or services or LTM GmbH sends personalised advertising, in order to safeguard the legitimate interests of LTM GmbH pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. § 7 (3) Act Against Unfair Competition (UWG). The legitimate interest of LTM GmbH is based on its economic interests, such as conducting advertising activities and targeting advertising to specific target groups.
g. Use of data for email marketing and your right to object
If LTM GmbH uses your email address in connection with the conclusion of a contract and the provision of LTM products and you have not objected to this use, LTM GmbH reserves the right to send you offers for similar products from the LTM range by email on a regular basis. You can object to this use of your email at any time by sending a message to the contact details provided below, or by using a link provided in the marketing email for this purpose, without incurring any costs other than transmission costs charged at the basic rate.
IV. Links and social media links
a. Links
Some sections of the LTM website contain links to the websites of external providers. These websites are subject to their own privacy policies. LTM GmbH is not responsible for the operation of these websites or for their handling of data.

b. Social media links
Links to services such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Pinterest are integrated in the LTM website. You will be forwarded to the website of the respective provider after clicking the link.

V. Recipients or categories of recipients of your data
Within LTM GmbH, your data is forwarded to those in-house departments that need this data for compliance with contractual and statutory obligations, or in order to enforce and implement the legitimate interests of LTM GmbH. LTM GmbH also shares your personal data – to the extent permitted or prescribed by law – with other recipients that perform services relating to the LTM website on behalf of LTM GmbH. LTM GmbH limits the disclosure of your personal data to the necessary minimum required, in particular, the minimum required to process your order/booking.

If you use the LTM website for purely informational purposes, LTM GmbH stores your personal data on the servers solely for the duration of your visit to the LTM website. Your personal data is deleted immediately after you leave the LTM website.
Any cookies installed by LTM GmbH are also usually deleted after you leave the LTM website. However, this does not apply to persistent cookies (including cookies used by Google Analytics), which are automatically deleted after a specified period of time. This may vary depending on the cookie – the maximum storage period is one year (see Section III. / 1. / a. or b.).
You also have the option of deleting installed cookies yourself at any time (see Section III /1. / a. or b.).
Active use of the website
If you actively use the website, LTM GmbH stores your personal data initially for the time that we need to respond to your enquiry or for the duration of the business relationship. This also includes steps taken prior to entering into a contract (pre-contractual legal relationship) and the administration of the contract.
In addition, LTM GmbH also stores your personal data until the limitation period for legal claims from the relationship with you has expired, in order to use it as evidence if necessary. The limitation period is usually between 12 and 36 months, but it can be up to 30 years.
Upon expiry of the limitation period, LTM GmbH will delete your personal data unless it is subject to a statutory retention period, for example, under the German Commercial Code (HGB, Sections 238, 257 Para. 4) or the German Fiscal Code (AO, Section 147 Paras. 3 and 4). These retention periods can be between two and ten years.
VII. Transferring data to third countries
LTM GmbH transmits your truncated IP address to the USA when using Google tools. The data is transmitted on the basis of the Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1250 of 12 July 2016 pursuant to Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the adequacy of the protection provided by the EU-US Privacy Shield.
In all other cases, LTM GmbH does not transmit your personal data to countries outside the EU or the EEA or to international organisations.
VIII. Your data protection rights as a data subject
Provided the statutory conditions are met, you as the data subject are entitled to assert the following rights against LTM GmbH.
Right of access: under Art. 15 GDPR, you have the right to obtain confirmation from LTM GmbH at any time as to whether or not personal data relating to you is processed by LTM GmbH. Should this be the case, you have the right of access to this personal data and certain other information under Art. 15 GDPR (including the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data, the categories of recipients, the envisaged storage period, the source of the data, the use of automated decision-making and, where data is transferred to a third country, the appropriate safeguards) and to obtain a copy of your data (subject to possible limitations pursuant to Section 34 BDSG).
Right to rectification: Under Art. 16 GDPR, you have the right to request that LTM GmbH rectifies any stored data relating to you that is inaccurate or incomplete.
Right to erasure: Under the provisions of Art. 17 GDPR, you have the right, at any time, to request that LTM GmbH erases the personal data relating to you without undue delay. The right to erasure does not apply in certain cases, for example where the processing of personal data is necessary for the exercise of the right of freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation to which LTM GmbH is subject (e.g. statutory retention duties) or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Right to restriction of the processing: Under the provisions of Art. 18 GDPR, you have the right to request that LTM GmbH restrict the processing of personal data of its customers.
Right to data portability: Under the provisions of Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive the personal data relating to you and provided to LTM GmbH by you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
Right to withdraw consent: You have the right to withdraw consent to the processing of your personal data at any time with future effect.
Right to object: Under the provisions of Art. 21 GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data with the result that LTM GmbH is obliged to cease processing your personal data. The right of objection exists only within the limits provided in Art. 21 GDPR. In addition, the interests of LTM GmbH may conflict with ceasing the processing, meaning that LTM GmbH may have the right to continue processing your personal data despite your objection.
Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority: Under the provisions of Art. 77 GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State in which you live or work or in which the alleged infringement took place, if you are of the opinion that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR. The right to lodge a complaint does not prejudice any other administrative or legal remedy.
The competent supervisory authority for LTM GmbH is:
Der Sächsische Datenschutzbeauftragte
Devrientstraße 5
01067 Dresden
Phone: +49 (0)351/85471-101
Fax: +49 (0)351/85471-109

However, LTM GmbH recommends that you always send any complaints to our company data protection officer first.
Where possible, your requests to exercise your rights should be sent in writing to the address stated in Section I above or addressed directly to LTM GmbH’s Data Protection Officer.
IX. Scope of your obligations to provide data
There is no general obligation to provide personal data to LTM GmbH. However, if you refuse to do so, LTM GmbH will not be able to respond to your enquiries or enter into a contract with you, and you will not be able to use all features of the LTM GmbH website. Where LTM GmbH does not necessarily require personal data for the above processing purposes, this is indicated by “where applicable” or another symbol. This means that any information of this kind is provided voluntarily.
X. Automated decision-making / profiling in accordance with Art. 22 GDPR
LTM GmbH does not apply any automated decision-making or profiling (automated analysis of your personal circumstances).
XI. Information about your right to object under Art. 21 GDPR
1. You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your data that is carried out pursuant to Art. 6 (1) e GDPR (data processing in the public interest) or Art. 6 (1) f GDPR (data processing on the basis of a balancing of interests), to lodge an objection if there are reasons for doing so which arise from your particular situation. This also applies to any profiling based on these provisions within the meaning of Art. 4 (4) GDPR.
If you object, LTM GmbH will no longer process your personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate reasons for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or unless the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
2. LTM GmbH also processes your personal data in individual cases for direct marketing purposes. If you do not wish to receive any marketing, you have the right to object to this at any time. This also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to this direct marketing. LTM GmbH will note this objection for the future.
Where you object to the processing of data for direct marketing purposes, LTM GmbH will no longer process your data for these purposes.
3. No special requirements apply to the format of objections. Objections should be preferably addressed to:
