b) Sessions and Cookies
To operate the Internet site, PREMIUM LYRICS may use cookies or server-based sessions to store data. Cookies are, for instance, used here for personalized greetings by using the member's name. Cookies are files, which are stored by a website on the customer's hard drive to automatically recognize this particular computer at the next visit to the website, and adjust the website based on the customer's use.

To protect our customers, lyricists and payments against fraud (for example the use of stolen payment cards or fake accounts), PREMIUM LYRICS sets a security cookie named "pl_dv". It contains only a random identifier of your browser, without your name or e-mail address, and is stored for up to 2 years. When you register, sign in or start a payment, we store this identifier together with your user account, your IP address, your browser type (user agent) and the time. These data are used exclusively to detect and prevent fraud and misuse, not for advertising or statistics, and are not passed on to third parties unless this is necessary to investigate a specific case of fraud (for example with the payment provider) or required by law. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in preventing fraud (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The records are deleted automatically after 12 months. You may object to this processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation by writing to support@premiumlyrics.com.
