Types of data collected and purposes of processing

We process personal data only to the extent necessary for providing and securing blackout-tip.com, for communication with users, downloads, payments, donations, technical functions or legal obligations.

Data that you actively provide: This may include in particular name, email address, phone number, message texts, payment information, donation information, download requests, language settings or other information that you submit to us through forms, payment processes, emails or other contact channels. We use this data to process your request, provide digital content, process payments, communicate with you and fulfill legal or contractual obligations.

Automatically collected technical data: When visiting the website, the IP address, date and time of access, pages accessed, referrer URL, browser type, browser version, operating system, device information, transferred data volume and server status codes may be processed for technical reasons. This data serves the technical provision of the website, error analysis, system security, misuse detection and stability of the service.

We do not use personal data for hidden user profiles, automated decisions with legal effect or the sale of personal data to third parties.

Legal bases of processing

The processing of personal data takes place only on the basis of a permissible legal basis. Depending on the processing, the following legal bases in particular may be relevant:

Consent: If processing requires consent, it takes place only after prior approval. This may apply in particular to optional services, newsletters, analysis functions, marketing functions or external content if such functions are used in the future. Consent that has been given may be revoked at any time with effect for the future.

Performance of a contract and pre-contractual measures: If you purchase paid downloads, access digital content, make a payment, submit a request or use another service, we process the data required for carrying out the respective process.

Legal obligation: Certain data may be processed or retained if legal obligations exist, in particular tax, accounting, commercial-law or official retention and documentation obligations.

Legitimate interests: We may process data if this is necessary to secure the website, prevent misuse, analyze errors, perform technical maintenance, enforce claims or communicate properly and if no overriding interests of the affected person conflict with this.

Where additional national data protection regulations of the Dominican Republic or other mandatory applicable regulations apply, we observe them to the extent required in each case.

Cookies and technical functions

blackout-tip.com currently uses only technically necessary cookies and comparable technical functions to the extent required for operating the website, security, language settings, forms, sessions, login functions, download access or payment processes.

Essential cookies: These may include in particular session cookies, security cookies, CSRF protection mechanisms, language settings, login or admin sessions and technical features for detecting form misuse. These functions are necessary for the website to work securely and reliably.

Analytics, statistics, marketing or advertising cookies are currently not used unless they are expressly activated on the website and explained in advance accordingly.

A cookie banner is generally not required for purely technically necessary cookies. If optional cookies, external tracking services, advertising networks, embedded external content or comparable services are used in the future, they will be integrated only in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

You can delete, block or restrict cookies through your browser settings. This may limit individual website functions, especially forms, login areas, language settings or download functions.

Technically necessary cookies are stored only as long as required for the respective purpose or as specified by the technical function.

Disclosure of personal data

Personal data is disclosed only if this is necessary for the respective purpose, if a legal obligation exists, if consent has been given or if there is a legitimate interest.

For the technical operation of the website, data may be processed by hosting providers, server service providers, technical maintenance providers or security services. This processing takes place only to the extent necessary.

Mail servers, email service providers or technical dispatch services may be used for emails, contact requests, automatic confirmations or system messages.

For paid downloads, payments or donations, payment data may be transmitted to the respective integrated payment service provider, in particular PayPal or a comparable service provider. The privacy and terms of use of the respective payment service provider also apply to payment processing.

For affiliate links or product recommendations, we generally do not actively transmit personal data to the retailer. However, if you click an external link, you leave our website. From that point on, the privacy policy of the respective external provider applies.

Disclosure to authorities, courts, tax advisors, legal advisors or other bodies may take place if we are legally obligated to do so or if this is necessary to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

International data transfer

Corporacion Lutz S.R.L. is based in the Dominican Republic. Depending on the origin of the user, hosting structure, payment service provider, email communication or external service, personal data may be processed or transferred outside the country in which the user is located.

For users from the European Union or the European Economic Area, this may constitute a transfer to a third country within the meaning of the GDPR. In such cases, we ensure that the transfer takes place only to the extent necessary for the respective purpose or where a suitable legal basis exists.

For payment services, especially PayPal or comparable payment providers, data processing may take place by the respective provider in its own systems and, where applicable, in several countries. The privacy information of the payment service provider is also authoritative.

When clicking external affiliate links, retailer pages or other third-party offers, data processing may also take place by providers outside your country. We have no influence over this after you leave our website.

Storage period

We store personal data only as long as required for the respective purpose or as long as statutory retention obligations exist.

Contact requests and email communication are stored as long as necessary to process the request, follow up communication or protect legitimate interests.

Data relating to paid downloads, payments, donations or business transactions may be stored longer due to tax, accounting or legal obligations.

Technical server log files are generally stored only as long as necessary for security, error analysis, misuse detection and proper operation of the website.

Session data and technically necessary cookies are usually deleted after the session ends or after the respective technically intended storage period expires.

Download accesses, download IDs, payment status, transaction references or comparable technical records may be stored as long as necessary for provision, traceability, misuse prevention or legal documentation.

Data that is no longer required and for which no retention obligation exists is deleted or anonymized.

If deletion is not immediately possible in an individual case, processing will be restricted where possible.

Rights of affected persons

Affected persons may exercise certain rights regarding their personal data within the scope of the respectively applicable data protection laws.

This may include, in particular, the right to obtain information about whether and which personal data is processed about them.

Affected persons may request correction of incorrect or incomplete personal data.

Under certain conditions, deletion of personal data may be requested.

Under certain conditions, restriction of processing may be requested.

Where processing is based on consent, this consent may be revoked at any time with effect for the future.

Where processing is based on legitimate interests, an objection to processing may be lodged under certain conditions.

Where provided by law, there may be a right to data portability.

Affected persons may also lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority or other competent body if they believe that the processing of their personal data violates applicable data protection law.

To exercise rights, you can contact us at [privacy@corporacionlutz.com](mailto:privacy@corporacionlutz.com).

So that we can correctly assign requests and avoid unauthorized disclosures, it may be necessary to verify the identity of the requesting person in an appropriate manner.

Exercising statutory data protection rights is generally free of charge. However, in the case of obviously unfounded or excessively frequent requests, legally permissible restrictions or measures may apply.

Data security

We use technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, alteration or disclosure.

• Use of secure server and hosting structures within the scope of available technical possibilities.
• Use of security mechanisms such as CSRF protection, session protection and form protection against automated misuse.
• Restriction of access to administrative areas and internal functions.
• Processing of personal data only by authorized persons or service providers where necessary.
• Regular technical maintenance, error analysis and security review of the website.

Despite all security measures, data transmission over the internet can never be guaranteed to be completely risk-free.

Users should carefully protect their own login details, download links, payment confirmations and email communication and should not transmit sensitive information if this is not necessary.
