Analoge Botschaften statt lauter Schlagzeilen

„Wo früher Schlagzeilen schrien, lädt heute die Stille des Papiers zum Nachdenken ein.“

Where BILD and Kölner Express once catered to quick tabloid consumption, today you'll find two newspaper dispensers with entirely new content. Benjamin Knabe has redesigned the housings and, together with Ardi Goldman, developed his own newspapers, which are now available there. Anyone who opens the flap will not find fleeting news, but texts that last.

You don't need coins to operate the lever – curiosity is enough. Those who engage today receive impulses for their own being instead of yesterday's news. The yellow machine is dedicated to a special edition on „Magical Triangle of Life“, while the blue to „Art of Unionität“ leads. Here, you can experience what holds this terrain together at its core – a symbiosis of attitude, aesthetics, and community.

In an era of fleeting screen information, these objects deliberately embrace the haptic. The rustling of paper and the conscious decision to pause transform the former tabloid vending machines into places of deceleration. It is a plea that the most important news is often that which we find within ourselves when we leave the noise of the world behind for a moment.

Data privacy

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data will be collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and how we use it. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., in email communication) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to protect data completely against access by third parties.

Information on the Responsible Party

The data controller for this website is:

Ardi Goldman
Carl Benz Street 35
60386 Frankfurt

Phone: +49 (069) 94 74 13 0
E-Mail: info@ardi-goldman.de

The controller is the natural or legal person that, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage duration

Unless a more specific retention period is mentioned within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing ceases to apply. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent for data processing, your data will be deleted, provided we have no other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, deletion will occur after these grounds cease to apply.

General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website

To the extent that you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 (2) lit. a GDPR, insofar as special categories of data pursuant to Art. 9 (1) GDPR are processed. In the event of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing shall also be based on Art. 49 (1) lit. a GDPR. To the extent that you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your end device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing shall additionally be based on § 25 (1) TDDDG. The consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required for the fulfillment of a contract or for the execution of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if it is required for the fulfillment of a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The relevant legal bases in each individual case are explained in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Recipients of personal data

In the course of our business activities, we collaborate with various external entities. This sometimes necessitates the transfer of personal data to these external entities. We only disclose personal data to external entities when it is necessary for the performance of a contract, when we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., disclosure of data to tax authorities), when we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or when another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using contract processors, we only transfer personal data of our customers based on a valid contract for contract processing. In the case of joint processing, a contract for joint processing is concluded.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent that has already been given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to data collection in special cases, as well as to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If the data processing is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. You can find the respective legal basis on which a processing is based in this data protection declaration. If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR SUCH MARKETING, INCLUDING PROFILING WHEN IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to complain to the competent supervisory authority

In case of infringements of the GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to complain shall be without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have the data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.

Information, Rectification, and Deletion

Under applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time for this and for further questions on the subject of personal data.

Right to restrict processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally need time to verify it. For the duration of the check, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request a restriction on the processing of data instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
  • If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of interests between yours and our interests must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data may, apart from storage, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State.

5. Newsletter

Newsletter data

If you wish to subscribe to the newsletter offered on the website, we require your email address and information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified email address and agree to receive the newsletter. No further data will be collected, or only on a voluntary basis. We use newsletter service providers for the processing of the newsletter, which are described below.

Brevo

This website uses Brevo for sending newsletters. The provider is Sendinblue GmbH, Köpenicker Straße 126, 10179 Berlin, Germany.

Brevo is a service that can be used, among other things, to organize and analyze the sending of newsletters. The data you enter for the purpose of newsletter subscription will be stored on the servers of Sendinblue GmbH in Germany.

Data Analysis by Brevo

With the help of Brevo, we can analyze our newsletter campaigns. For example, we can see if a newsletter message was opened and which links were potentially clicked. This way, among other things, we can determine which links were clicked particularly often.

Furthermore, we can see if certain predefined actions were performed after opening/clicking (conversion rate). For example, we can see if you made a purchase after clicking on the newsletter.

Brevo also allows us to segment („cluster“) newsletter recipients based on various categories. For example, newsletter recipients can be segmented by age, gender, or place of residence. This allows for better tailoring of newsletters to the respective target groups.

If you do not want analysis by Brevo, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message.

Data processing is carried out on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing operations already carried out remain unaffected by the revocation.

Storage duration

The data you provided for the purpose of subscribing to our newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter or from our newsletter service provider. After unsubscribing from the newsletter, your data will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list. Data stored by us for other purposes will remain unaffected by this.

After you are removed from the newsletter distribution list, your email address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider on a blacklist if this is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves your interest as well as our interest in complying with legal requirements for sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Storage on the blacklist is not limited in time. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.
