Example regarding YouTube services passage:

Our website may use services from the Google-operated site “YouTube”. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube function, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account. The use of YouTube is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

WEBKiosk connected to custom domain

When integrating your magazines using an individual WEBKiosk or via embed with a custom domain, we recommend that you implement the following sections of our privacy policy into yours and supplement your cookie policy accordingly.

Example for a custom domain: https://magazine.thegoodlifefrance.com/


Your privacy policy declaration could include the following text passages:

  1. We use https://www.yumpu.com/ of the company i-magazine AG (“i-mag” - Gewerbestrasse 3, 9444 Diepoldsau, CH) on our website. Yumpu provides a digital platform for publishing magazines, brochures or catalogs. Using Yumpu, the content of PDF files is displayed as a so-called flip catalogue/flipbook and displayed directly in the web browser without loading the PDF files.

Switzerland is recognized by the European Commission as a country with an adequate level of data protection in accordance with Art 45 GDPR. Further information on this can be found here.

Yumpu sets strictly necessary cookies to ensure basic functions of the service. You can opt out of the use of these cookies at any time by adjusting your cookie settings accordingly. The procedure for doing this varies depending on the browser you are using. Browsers can be set to reject a certain type of cookie or certain cookies. The browser can also indicate when a cookie is being sent. You can do this by selecting the settings in your web browser according to your cookie preferences. However, you may then have to manually adjust some settings every time you visit a website. This may result in some services and functions not working properly.

Yumpu uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). It is used on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f. GDPR. Google Analytics uses cookies that enable an analysis of your use of the Yumpu service. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website, such as browser type/version, operating system used, referrer URL (the previously visited page), host name of the accessing computer (IP address), time of the server request, is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. Yumpu has also added the code “anonymizeIP” to Google Analytics. This guarantees that your IP address is masked so that all data is collected anonymously. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

Google Analytics deactivation link: You can prevent Google from recording further visits to this website. Attention: Deleting cookies, using the incognito/private mode of your browser or using a different browser leads to the deactivation of Google Analytics.


Log files

Yumpu automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits. We store these for up to one month, after which they are deleted. These are:

  • Browser type and browser version

  • Operating system used

  • referrer URL

  • Requested URL

  • Time of the server request

  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of the legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of the website. The data will not be passed on or used in any other way.
