Nonetheless, with static IP addresses, it is in principle possible to clearly assign the user data using this feature. We can only link your IP address to your user data through "manual" research. We only use this in exceptional cases when we have to prevent misuse and fraud and deny access to individual IP addresses.

Personal data for the purpose of soliciting donations, sponsorship services and general postal advertising activities to meet the goals of the organization are processed on the basis of the legitimate interests of the organization.

The fulfillment of these publicly recognized organizational goals is not possible without donations and is therefore necessary.
