d) When playing a movie (Intertrust ExpressPlay)

Our movies are copyrighted. To view the movies it is necessary to use the service "Intertrust ExpressPlay" of Intertrust Technologies Corporation, 920 Stewart Drive, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, USA (Intertrust). To do this, the user browser connects to Intertrust's license servers to retrieve the keys required to decrypt the movies. The browser transmits the data required for proper viewing to Intertrust's servers, including the user's IP address.

If processing is carried out by us in this context, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) DSGVO, as well as Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) DSGVO.

The described data exchange is necessary for the presentation and playback of the films within the scope of our contractual offer. It also serves to prevent misuse. Our legitimate interest also lies in the aforementioned reasons, provided that we process the data in the process.

The Intertrust keys provided for decryption are valid for a limited period of time. We do not store any further information about the use of Intertrust services. The other data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected.
