Privacy Policy
We are very pleased that you are interested in our company. Data protection is a top priority for the management of Tiger Moon Records. In general, you can use the Tiger Moon Records website without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use specific services offered by our company via our website, the processing of personal data may be necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
The processing of personal data—such as a data subject’s name, address, email address, or phone number—is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Tiger Moon Records. Through this Privacy Policy, our company aims to inform the public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, this Privacy Policy informs data subjects of their rights.
As the data controller, Tiger Moon Records has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most comprehensive protection possible of the personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions may generally involve security vulnerabilities, meaning that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to provide personal data to us through alternative means, such as by telephone.
1. Definitions
The Tiger Moon Records Privacy Policy is based on the terminology used by European legislators and regulators when enacting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our Privacy Policy is intended to be easy to read and understand for the general public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance.
In this Privacy Policy, we use the following terms, among others:
a) Personal Data
Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter “data subject”). A natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by association with an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more specific characteristics that reflect the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.
b) Data Subject
A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.
c) Processing
Processing means any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, distribution, or any other form of making available; the alignment or combination; the restriction, erasure, or destruction.
d) Restriction of Processing
Restriction of processing means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its future processing.
e) Profiling
Profiling is any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of such personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements.
) Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures that ensure the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Data Controller or Controller
The controller is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union law or the law of the Member States, the controller or the specific criteria for its designation may be provided for by Union law or the law of the Member States.
h) Processor
A processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
i) Recipient
A recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body to whom personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether or not that entity is a third party. However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the course of a specific investigative mandate under Union law or the law of the Member States are not considered recipients.
j) Third Party
A third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor, and the persons authorized to process the personal data under the direct responsibility of the controller or the processor.
k) Consent
Consent means any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes, expressed by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, by which the data subject signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.
2. Name and Address of the Data Controller
The data controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation, other data protection laws applicable in the Member States of the European Union, and other provisions relating to data protection is:
Tiger Moon Records
Stargarder Str. 67
10437 Berlin
Germany
Tel.: 0049 30 44 32 86 44
E-Mail: info@tigermoonrecords.de
Website: www.tigermoonrecords.de
3. Cookies
The Tiger Moon Records website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via a web browser.
Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain what is known as a cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier for the cookie. It consists of a string of characters that allows websites and servers to associate the cookie with the specific web browser in which it was stored. This enables the visited websites and servers to distinguish the data subject’s individual browser from other web browsers that contain different cookies. A specific web browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.
By using cookies, Tiger Moon Records can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without setting cookies.
Cookies allow us to optimize the information and content on our website to better serve our users. As mentioned earlier, cookies enable us to recognize users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to navigate our website. For example, a user of a website that uses cookies does not have to re-enter their login credentials every time they visit the site, as this information is retrieved by the website from the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the shopping cart cookie in an online store. The online store uses a cookie to remember the items a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart.
The data subject can prevent our website from setting cookies at any time by adjusting the settings of the web browser they are using, thereby permanently objecting to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common web browsers. If the data subject disables the setting of cookies in the web browser they are using, not all features of our website may be fully usable under certain circumstances.
4. Collection of General Data and Information
The Tiger Moon Records website collects a range of general data and information each time a data subject or an automated system accesses the website. This general data and information is stored in the server’s log files. The following may be collected: (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (known as the referrer), (4) the subpages on our website accessed via an accessing system, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet Protocol (IP) address, (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information used to prevent threats in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using this general data and information, Tiger Moon Records does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) correctly deliver the content of our website, (2) optimize the content of our website and the advertising on it, (3) ensure the ongoing functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement agencies with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyberattack. Tiger Moon Records therefore evaluates this anonymously collected data and information both for statistical purposes and with the aim of enhancing data protection and data security within our company, ultimately to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data from the server log files is stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.
5. Registration on Our Website
The data subject has the option to register on the data controller’s website by providing personal data. The specific personal data transmitted to the data controller in this process is determined by the respective input form used for registration. The personal data entered by the data subject is collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the data controller and for its own purposes. The data controller may arrange for the transfer of this data to one or more processors, such as a package delivery service, which will also use the personal data exclusively for internal purposes attributable to the data controller.
When a user registers on the data controller’s website, the IP address assigned by the data subject’s Internet service provider (ISP), as well as the date and time of registration, are also stored. This data is stored because it is the only way to prevent misuse of our services, and, if necessary, this data enables us to investigate criminal offenses that have been committed. In this respect, the storage of this data is necessary to protect the data controller. This data is generally not disclosed to third parties, unless there is a legal obligation to do so or the disclosure serves the purposes of criminal prosecution.
The data subject’s registration, which involves the voluntary provision of personal data, enables the data controller to offer the data subject content or services that, by their very nature, can only be made available to registered users. Registered users are free to modify the personal data provided during registration at any time or to have it completely deleted from the data controller’s database.
The data controller will, upon request, provide any data subject with information at any time regarding which personal data has been stored about that data subject. Furthermore, the data controller will correct or delete personal data at the request or upon notification by the data subject, provided that no statutory retention obligations prevent this. All employees of the data controller are available to the data subject as points of contact in this regard.
6. Subscription to Our Newsletter
On the Tiger Moon Records website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our company’s newsletter. The personal data transmitted to the data controller when subscribing to the newsletter is determined by the input form used for this purpose.
Tiger Moon Records periodically informs its customers and business partners about the company’s offers via a newsletter. In general, a data subject can only receive our company’s newsletter if (1) the data subject has a valid email address and (2) the data subject registers to receive the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation email is sent to the email address provided by a data subject when first registering for the newsletter using the double-opt-in procedure. This confirmation email serves to verify that the owner of the email address, as the data subject, has authorized receipt of the newsletter.
When registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) to the computer system used by the data subject at the time of registration, as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary to be able to trace any (potential) misuse of a data subject’s email address at a later date and therefore serves to provide legal protection for the data controller.
The personal data collected when subscribing to the newsletter is used exclusively for sending our newsletter. In addition, newsletter subscribers may be notified by email if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or for registration purposes, such as in the event of changes to the newsletter content or technical changes. Personal data collected as part of the newsletter service is not disclosed to third parties. The data subject may cancel their subscription to our newsletter at any time. Consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has provided to us for the purpose of sending the newsletter may be revoked at any time. A link to revoke consent is included in every newsletter. Furthermore, it is possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the data controller’s website or to notify the data controller of this in another manner.
7. Newsletter Tracking
Tiger Moon Records’ newsletters contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a tiny graphic embedded in emails sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and analysis. This allows for a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Using the embedded web beacon, Tiger Moon Records can determine whether and when an email was opened by a data subject and which links contained in the email were clicked by the data subject.
Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters is stored and analyzed by the data controller to optimize newsletter distribution and to tailor the content of future newsletters even better to the data subject’s interests. This personal data is not disclosed to third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to revoke the separate declaration of consent provided via the double opt-in procedure. Following revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the data controller. Tiger Moon Records automatically interprets unsubscribing from the newsletter as a revocation of consent.
8. Routine Deletion and Blocking of Personal Data
The data controller processes and stores the data subject’s personal data only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or to the extent provided for by the European legislative bodies or other legislative bodies in laws or regulations to which the data controller is subject.
If the purpose of storage no longer applies or if a retention period prescribed by the European legislative and regulatory authorities or another competent legislative authority expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.
9. Rights of the Data Subject
a) Right to Confirmation
Every data subject has the right, granted by European legislation, to request confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning them is being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to confirmation, they may contact a representative of the controller at any time.
b) Right of Access
Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by European legislation, to obtain from the controller, free of charge, information at any time regarding the personal data stored about them and a copy of such information. Furthermore, European legislation grants the data subject the right to receive the following information:
the purposes of the processing
the categories of personal data being processed
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organizations
if possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored, or, if this is not possible, the criteria used to determine that duration
the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of the personal data concerning them, or to restriction of processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing
the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
if the personal data are not collected from the data subject: all available information regarding the origin of the data
the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and—at least in such cases—meaningful information regarding the logic involved, as well as the scope and intended consequences of such processing for the data subject
Furthermore, the data subject has the right to be informed whether personal data has been transferred to a third country or to an international organization. If this is the case, the data subject also has the right to receive information about the appropriate safeguards in connection with the transfer.
If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, they may contact a representative of the data controller at any time.
c) Right to Rectification
Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by European legislation, to request the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning them. Furthermore, the data subject has the right to request that incomplete personal data be completed—including by means of a supplementary statement—taking into account the purposes of the processing.
If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, they may contact a representative of the data controller at any time.
d) Right to Erasure (Right to Be Forgotten)
Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by European legislation, to request that the controller immediately erase the personal data concerning them, provided that one of the following grounds applies and provided that the processing is not necessary:
The personal data was collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which it is no longer necessary.
The data subject withdraws their consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
The personal data has been processed unlawfully.
The erasure of the personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
The personal data was collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Article 8(1) of the GDPR.
If any of the above reasons apply and a data subject wishes to request the erasure of personal data stored by Tiger Moon Records, they may contact a representative of the data controller at any time. The Tiger Moon Records representative will ensure that the request for erasure is complied with without delay.
If the personal data has been made public by Tiger Moon Records and our company, as the data controller, is obligated to erase the personal data pursuant to Article 17(1) of the GDPR, Tiger Moon Records shall take appropriate measures, including technical measures, taking into account available technology and implementation costs, to inform other data controllers who process the published personal data that the data subject has requested that these other data controllers delete all links to such personal data or copies or replicas of such personal data, provided that the processing is not necessary. A Tiger Moon Records employee will take the necessary steps on a case-by-case basis.
e) Right to Restriction of Processing
Every data subject whose personal data is being processed has the right, granted by European legislation, to request that the controller restrict the processing if any of the following conditions are met:
The data subject disputes the accuracy of the personal data, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
The processing is unlawful, the data subject objects to the erasure of the personal data, and instead requests the restriction of the use of the personal data.
The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the data subject needs it to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.
The data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR, and it has not yet been determined whether the controller’s legitimate grounds override those of the data subject.
If any of the above conditions are met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by Tiger Moon Records, they may contact a representative of the data controller at any time. The Tiger Moon Records representative will arrange for the restriction of processing.
f) Right to Data Portability
Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right, as granted by European legislation, to receive the personal data concerning them—which they have provided to a data controller—in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. They also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was provided, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) of the GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
Furthermore, when exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject has the right to have their personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, provided that this is technically feasible and does not infringe upon the rights and freedoms of others.
To exercise the right to data portability, the data subject may contact a Tiger Moon Records employee at any time.
g) Right to Object
Any data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by European legislation, to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them that is carried out pursuant to Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
In the event of an objection, Tiger Moon Records will no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If Tiger Moon Records processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for such marketing purposes. This also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to Tiger Moon Records regarding processing for direct marketing purposes, Tiger Moon Records will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, the data subject has the right to object, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them that is carried out by Tiger Moon Records for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.
To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact any employee of Tiger Moon Records or another employee directly. The data subject is also free, in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise their right to object by means of automated procedures that use technical specifications.
h) Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling
Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing—including profiling—that produces legal effects concerning the data subject or similarly significantly affects the data subject, provided that the decision (1) is not necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, and that law provides for appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms as well as the legitimate interests of the data subject, or (3) is based on the data subject’s explicit consent.
If the decision (1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is it made with the data subject’s explicit consent, Tiger Moon Records shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms as well as their legitimate interests, including at a minimum the right to request human intervention by the controller, to present their point of view, and to contest the decision.
If the data subject wishes to exercise rights relating to automated decision-making, they may contact a representative of the data controller at any time.
i) Right to Withdraw Consent Under Data Protection Law
Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by European legislation, to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
If the data subject wishes to exercise their right to withdraw consent, they may contact a representative of the data controller at any time.
10. Payment Method: Privacy Policy Regarding PayPal as a Payment Method
The data controller has integrated PayPal components into this website. PayPal is an online payment service provider. Payments are processed via so-called PayPal accounts, which are virtual personal or business accounts. PayPal also allows users to make virtual payments via credit cards if they do not have a PayPal account. A PayPal account is managed using an email address, which is why there is no traditional account number. PayPal enables users to initiate online payments to third parties or to receive payments. PayPal also acts as an escrow agent and offers buyer protection services.
PayPal’s European operating company is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, 2449 Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
If the data subject selects “PayPal” as the payment method during the ordering process in our online store, the data subject’s data is automatically transmitted to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data subject consents to the transmission of personal data necessary for payment processing.
The personal data transmitted to PayPal generally includes first name, last name, address, email address, IP address, phone number, cell phone number, or other data necessary for payment processing. Personal data related to the respective order is also necessary for the fulfillment of the purchase agreement.
The purpose of transmitting this data is to process payments and prevent fraud. The data controller will transmit personal data to PayPal, in particular, when there is a legitimate interest in doing so. The personal data exchanged between PayPal and the data controller may be transmitted by PayPal to credit bureaus. The purpose of this transmission is to verify identity and creditworthiness.
PayPal may disclose personal data to affiliated companies, service providers, or subcontractors to the extent necessary to fulfill contractual obligations or where the data is to be processed on its behalf.
The data subject has the option to revoke their consent to the processing of personal data at any time by notifying PayPal. A revocation does not affect personal data that must be processed, used, or transferred for the mandatory (contractual) processing of payments.
PayPal’s current privacy policy can be accessed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full.
11. Legal Basis for Processing
Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for our company’s processing activities in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party—as is the case, for example, with processing operations required for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration—then the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. The same applies to processing operations necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, such as in cases of inquiries regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data—such as to fulfill tax obligations—the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.
In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured on our premises and their name, age, health insurance information, or other vital information had to be disclosed to a doctor, a hospital, or other third parties. In such cases, the processing would be based on Article 6(1)(d) of the GDPR.
Finally, processing operations may be based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. This legal basis applies to processing operations not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases, provided that the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, unless the interests, fundamental rights, and fundamental freedoms of the data subject override those interests. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they were specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this regard, the legislator took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47, Sentence 2 of the GDPR).
12. Legitimate interests in processing pursued by the controller or a third party
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, our legitimate interest is the conduct of our business operations for the benefit of all our employees and shareholders.
13. Period for which personal data is stored
The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the applicable statutory retention period. Upon expiration of this period, the relevant data is routinely deleted, provided it is no longer necessary for the performance of a contract or for entering into a contract.
14. Legal or contractual requirements regarding the provision of personal data; Necessity for the conclusion of a contract; obligation of the data subject to provide personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data
We hereby inform you that the provision of personal data is in some cases required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or may also result from contractual provisions (e.g., information regarding the contractual partner).
In some cases, it may be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data in order to conclude a contract, which we must then process. For example, the data subject is required to provide us with personal data when our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.
Before providing personal data, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will explain to the data subject, on a case-by-case basis, whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract, or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract; whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data; and what the consequences of failing to provide the personal data would be.
15. Automated Decision-Making
As a responsible company, we do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling.
16. Data Processing in Connection with the Electronic Cancellation Function
Effective June 19, 2026, we will provide an electronic cancellation function in accordance with Section 356a of the German Civil Code (BGB). When this function is used, we process only the data necessary to handle the cancellation:
Name
Order number / Contract number
Date of contract conclusion and cancellation
Email address for the acknowledgment of receipt
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(c) of the GDPR (compliance with a legal obligation) in conjunction with Section 356a of the German Civil Code (BGB).
Purpose: Processing and documenting the cancellation, as well as sending the legally required acknowledgment of receipt.
Retention period: The data will be stored for the duration of the statutory retention obligations (generally 3 years from the date of withdrawal; up to 10 years under commercial and tax law).
No data beyond what is necessary for the withdrawal process will be collected. A reason for withdrawal does not need to be provided and will not be requested.
This privacy policy was created using the privacy policy generator of DGD Deutsche Gesellschaft für Datenschutz GmbH, which acts as the external data protection officer for Upper Bavaria, in cooperation with data protection attorney Christian Solmecke.
