As a rule, your browsing behaviour is analysed anonymously; your browsing behaviour cannot be traced back to you. You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools. You can find detailed information on this in the further sections of this Privacy Policy below.
You can object to this analysis. We provide information in this Privacy Policy about how you can object.
2. General and mandatory information
Privacy
As the operator of this website, we take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We handle your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy.
When you use this website, different types of personal data are collected. “Personal data” means any data that can be used to identify you personally. This Privacy Policy explains which data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how we collect and use data.
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (for example, when communicating by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to protect data completely against access by third parties.
Information on the controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:
Müritzeum gemeinnützige GmbH (Müritzeum gGmbH)
Represented by its Managing Director, Dr Mathias Küster
Zur Steinmole 1
17192 Waren (Müritz), Germany
Phone: (03991) 633 68 -0
E-Mail: info@mueritzeum.de
“Controller” means the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (such as names, email addresses or similar information).
Withdrawing your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are possible only with your express consent. You can withdraw a consent that you have granted at any time. To do so, you can simply send us an email. No form is required. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of data processing performed before the withdrawal of consent.
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of an infringement of data protection legislation, you (the data subject) have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection matters is the state data protection commissioner of the federal state in which our company has its registered office. A list of the data protection commissioners for the federal states and their contact details can be found here: bfdi.bund.de.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we are processing automatically on the basis of your consent, or in order to perform a contract, delivered to you or a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transmission of your data to another controller, this will be implemented only where it is technically feasible.
SSL or TLS encryption
This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and in order to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries, that you send to us – the website operator. You can tell if a connection is encrypted because the address bar in your browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and a padlock symbol appears in your browser bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data that you send to us cannot be read by third parties.
Encrypted payment transactions on this website
If there is an obligation to transmit your payment data (for example, your bank account number where a direct debit mandate is being set up) after a contract against payment has been concluded, this data is required to process the payment.
All payment transactions using standard means of payment (Visa/Mastercard, direct debit) are completed via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can tell if a connection is encrypted because the address bar in your browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and a padlock symbol appears in your browser bar.
Your payment data that you send to us cannot be read by third parties when encrypted communication is used.
Information, blocking and erasure
Within the scope of the legal provisions in force, you have the right to receive free information at any time on your personal data that is stored, as well as its source, the recipients, the purpose of the data processing and, where applicable, you also have the right to have this data corrected, blocked or erased. To do so, or if you have any further questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time using the address provided in our Legal Notice.
Objection to advertising emails
We hereby object to the use of the contact information that we are legally required to publish in our Legal Notice for the purpose of sending us advertising or information material that we have not expressly requested. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event that unsolicited advertising information is sent, for example via spam emails.

4. Data collection on our website
Cookies
This website uses cookies in some cases. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. They are used to make our website more user-freindly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer and stored by your browser. Most of the cookies that we use are known as “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognise your browser the next time you visit.
You can configure your browser to notify you whenever cookies are placed, to allow cookies only in certain cases, to disable them in specific cases or completely, or to automatically delete cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies that are required to complete the electronic communication process or to provide particular functions that you have requested (such as a shopping basket function) are stored on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. If other cookies (such as cookies to analyse your browsing behaviour) are stored, they are addressed separately in this Privacy Policy.
Server log files
The provider of this website automatically collects and stores in what are known as server log files any information that your browser automatically transmits to us. This includes:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Hostname of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
This data is not merged with other data sources.
The basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(b ) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to perform a contract or to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
Contact form
If you send us enquiries using the contact form, your information from the contact form, including the contact data that you entered in it, is stored by us in order to respond to the enquiry and in case there are any follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent.
The data entered in the contact form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time. To do so, you can simply send us an email. No form is required. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of data processing operations performed before the withdrawal of consent.
We will retain the data that you enter in the contact form until you ask us to erase it, until you withdraw your consent to its storage or until the purpose for which the data is stored ceases to apply (for example, after your enquiry has been fully processed). This does not affect mandatory legal provisions, in particular retention periods.
Data processing (customer and contract data)
We collect, process and use personal data (customer data) only where it is required to establish a contractual relationship, draft its contents or amend them. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to perform a contract or to take steps prior to entering into a contract. We collect, process and use personal data about the use of our website (usage data) only where it is required to enable the user to use the service, or else for invoicing purposes.
The customer data collected is deleted after the conclusion of the contract or the termination of the business relationship. This does not affect statutory retention periods.
Data transfer when concluding a contract with online stores and merchants or for the delivery of goods
We share personal data with third parties only if it is necessary in order to fulfil a contract; for example, data may be shared with the company entrusted with the delivery of goods or with the credit institution commissioned to process payments. Data is not shared in any other cases, or it is shared only if you have expressly agreed to it. Your data is not shared with third parties, for instance for advertising purposes, without your express consent.
The basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to perform a contract or to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
5. Analytic tools and advertising : Google Analytics
This website uses features of the Google Analytics web analytics service. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files stored on your computer to help analyse how you use the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA, where it is stored.
Google Analytics cookies are stored on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to improve both its website and its advertising.
IP anonymisation
We have activated IP anonymisation on this website. This means that before your IP address is transmitted to the USA, it will be truncated by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other countries that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide other services relating to website activity and Internet usage for the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the context of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google.
Browser plug-in
You can prevent cookies from being stored by configuring your browser settings accordingly; however, we should point out that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Objecting to data collection
You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by clicking the link below. This will place an opt-out cookie that prevents the collections of your data during future visits to this website: disable Google Analytics here.
More information on how user data is handled by Google Analytics can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy: support.google.com/analytics.
Commissioned data processing
We have concluded a contract for commissioned data processing with Google and fully implement the rigorous requirements stipulated by the German data protection authorities when Google Analytics is used.
Demographic characteristics with Google Analytics
This website uses the Demographics feature of Google Analytics. This enables reports about the age, gender and interests of website visitors to be compiled. This data comes from interest-based advertising by Google and visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot be associated with a specific person. You can disable this feature at any time using the advertising settings in your Google account or you can generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the section “Objecting to data collection”.
Google Analytics remarketing
Our website uses the Google Analytics remarketing features in conjunction with the cross-device features of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, 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 and Google DoubleClick. This allows interest-based, personalised advertising messages that have been tailored to you based on your previous usage and browsing behaviour on one device (such as your mobile phone) to be displayed on any of your other devices (such as a tablet or PC).
If 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 messages can be displayed on any device on which you are logged 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 generate target groups for cross-device advertising.
You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by disabling personalised advertising in your Google account. To do so, follow this link: google.com/settings.
The data collected in your Google account will be associated only with your consent, which you can give to Google or withdraw (Article 6(1)(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 you have objected to your data being merged), data is collected on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The fact that the website operator has an interest in the anonymised analysis of website visitors for advertising purposes constitutes the legitimate interest.
More information and the privacy provisions can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy at: google.com/policies.
Google AdWords and Google conversion tracking
This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).
As part of Google AdWords, we use conversion tracking. When you click on an advert displayed by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is placed. Cookies are small text files that are stored in the Internet browser on the user’s computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and do not serve to identify users personally. If the user visits particular pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can see that the user has clicked on the advert and been redirected to this page.
Each Google AdWords customer is given a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information gained with the aid of the conversion cookie serves to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. The customers are informed of the total number of users who clicked on their advert and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that would enable them to identify users personally. If you do not want to participate in this tracking, you can object to this use by easily disabling the Google conversion tracking cookie in the user settings in your Internet browser. In this case, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.
Conversion cookies are stored on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to improve both its website and its advertising.
You can find more information on Google AdWords and Google conversion tracking in Google’s Privacy Policy at: google.de/policies/privacy.
You can configure your browser to notify you whenever cookies are placed, to allow cookies only in certain cases, to disable them in specific cases or completely, or to automatically delete cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Facebook pixel
Our website uses a visitor action pixel provided by Facebook, Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”) to measure conversions.
This enables the behaviour of website visitors to be tracked after they click on a Facebook advert and are redirected to the provider’s website. In this way, the effectiveness of Facebook adverts can be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes, and future advertising measures can be optimised.
The data collected is anonymous to us as the operator of this website and we cannot use it to identify users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that it can be linked with the individual user’s profile and so that Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook Privacy Policy. This enables Facebook to display adverts on Facebook pages and outside Facebook. We as the website operator have no influence over this use of the data.
You can find more information on how to protect your privacy in Facebook’s Privacy Policy: facebook.com/about.
You can also disable the custom audiences remarketing feature in the advert settings at: facebook.com/ads. To do so, you must be logged in to your Facebook account.
If you do not have a Facebook account, you can disable behavioural advertising by Facebook on the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: youronlinechoices.com.

We use Google reCAPTCHA (“reCAPTCHA”) on our website. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
reCAPTCHA serves to verify whether data entered in our website (for example in a contact form) has been entered by a person or an automated program. To this end, reCAPTCHA analyses website visitors’ behaviour based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically from the moment the website visitor accesses the website. For the purposes of the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (such as the IP address, the website visitor’s dwell time on the website and the user’s mouse movements). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
The reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not informed that an analysis is taking place.
This data processing takes place on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its website from abusive automated spying and spam.
