Privacy policy for the use of Google +1

Our pages use Google +1 functions, which are provided by Google Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Collection and dissemination of information: You can use the Google +1 button to publish information worldwide. You and other users receive personalised content from Google and our partners via the Google +1 button. Google stores both the information that you have given +1 for a content and information about the page that you viewed when you clicked +1. Your +1s can be displayed as references together with your profile name and your photo in Google services, such as in search results or in your Google profile, or in other places on websites and adverts on the Internet. Google records information about your +1 activities in order to improve Google services for you and others. To be able to use the Google +1 button, you need a globally visible, public Google profile, which must contain at least the name chosen for the profile. This name is used in all Google services. In some cases, this name can also replace another name that you have used when sharing content via your Google account. The identity of your Google profile can be displayed to users who know your e-mail address or have other identifying information about you.

Use of the information collected: In addition to the uses described above, the information you provide will be used in accordance with the applicable Google privacy policy. Google may publish summarised statistics about the +1 activities of users or pass these on to users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers or associated websites.

This allows Instagram to associate your visit to our pages with your user account. We would like to point out that, as the provider of the pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Instagram.

How long we store your data

When you post a comment, it is saved indefinitely, including metadata. In this way, we can automatically recognise and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

What rights you have to your data

Where we send your data

Visitor comments could be analysed by an automated spam detection service.

The magazine, which has been published regularly in two languages - German and English - on a quarterly basis since 2005, celebrates the topic of timepieces - not in isolation like all its competitors - but «As in life, the watch is a complementary part of the lifestyle», says founder and current brand ambassador Karl Heinz Nuber. «The wristwatch is an unmistakable statement for women and men» , says Nuber. Over 45 years ago, he was the first journalist to make the subject of “watches” accessible to the general public out of pure passion and genuine enthusiasm and not as a writer for hire like today's so-called “journalists”.
