I give Meltwater and Meltwater Clients my consent to the processing of my personal data in the manner and for the purposed described in the Declaration of Consent.
I consent to the processing of my personal data by Meltwater (name, working languages, contact details (e-mail, telephone number, fax, social media contact, website, office address), professional position (editor, freelance journalist, etc.) and specialist interests) for the purpose of the targeted distribution of press releases and communication with PR representatives. This encloses the collection and storage of personal data that has been communicated by me and from public sources (such as news articles, websites or social media platforms) as well as the disclosure of my personal data to Meltwater’s clients and clients of affiliated companies (“Meltwater Clients”) for them to send me press releases. I acknowledge that I can adjust my preferences to receive communications in my profile. In order to encourage Meltwater Clients to send press releases to active and interested journalists and content creators, I also agree that Meltwater may track and show to Meltwater Clients which press releases sent through Meltwater service I have opened and read. For this purpose, there is a so-called tracking pixel embedded in the e-mails sent via the Meltwater service. Additionally, if such e-mails contain links, Meltwater and the Meltwater Clients will also learn whether and how often I have clicked on any of the links.
Potential recipients of my data are communications and marketing departments within businesses or other institutions, or PR agencies. I can request an overview of potential recipients of my data from Meltwater at any time. Upon request, I can receive information to which Meltwater Clients Meltwater has transmitted my data.
I am aware that this consent is voluntary and I can withdraw it at any time by signing in to my Meltwater profile and requesting my profile to be deleted. I can also withdraw my consent in writing Meltwater Deutschland GmbH, Jannowitz Centre, Brückenstrasse 6, 10179 Berlin / or info@journalists.meltwater.com. In case of withdrawal, my data will be deleted without undue delay; only my name and email address will be kept in a Meltwater blacklist to prevent unsolicited contact. The withdrawal of my consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing activities performed before the withdrawal.
Furthermore, I am aware that I have the opportunity, at any time, to update my data by logging into my Meltwater profile. If needed I can also update my data by writing or e-mailing Meltwater at the above address.
