Benötige ich einen Opt-In für den Einsatz von Trackboxx?
The use of an Opt-In is not necessary from our perspective.
We are aware that one or the other privacy expert disagrees and argues that Trackboxx stores and processes the IP address of the visitor.
Here is a brief statement from our data protection officers:
"The storage of personal data does not necessarily require consent. This is also not derived from the TTDSG. The TTDSG addresses cookies and the like in Section 25 TTDSG.
Art. 6 GDPR provides the legal basis. Legitimate interest should be applicable to Trackboxx.
The IP address is processed by Trackboxx "only", namely to anonymize it or pseudonymize it for the duration of the hash validity."
Trotzdem möchten wir so datenschutzfreundlich wie möglich agieren und haben daher auch eine Option zum "Optout". bereitgestellt.
This can already be found in the section for your privacy statement HERE. Additionally, it is described HERE how you can also completely manually integrate the opt-out.
Since there are still uncertainties here.
The term "Cookie Box" or "Consent Banner" fundamentally refers to the same concept as an Opt-In.
In the first step, a Cookie Box / Consent Banner informs about relevant data protection matters, and in the second step, it "actively" requests consents in order to subsequently block or execute "services."
You have questions, need support or just want to get something off your chest, then we look forward to your request.
