II General information on data processing

We collect and use the personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The collection and use of personal data of our users only takes place regularly with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

Information on the scope, purpose and legal basis of the processing of personal data can be found in the respective sections of this privacy policy.

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Data may also be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

III Provision of the website and creation of log files

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.
The following data is collected:

a) Information about the browser type and version used
b) The user’s operating system
c) The Internet service provider of the user
d) The IP address of the user
e) Date and time of access
f) Websites from which the user’s system accesses our website
g) Websites that are accessed by the user’s system via our website

The data is also stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

Storage in log files takes place to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. The data is not analyzed for marketing purposes in this context. These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility for the user to object.

IV. Use of cookies

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in the Internet browser or by the Internet browser on the user’s computer system. When a user accesses a website, a cookie may be stored on the user’s operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string of characters that enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is called up again. We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies. These functions require the browser to be recognized even after a page change. The user data collected by technically necessary cookies is not used to create user profiles.

The aforementioned purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in the processing of personal data in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

We also use cookies on our website that enable an analysis of the user’s surfing behavior (third-party cookies). Further information on the scope, purpose, legal basis and objection options can be found in the respective sections of Chapter VI of this Privacy Policy.

Cookies are stored on the user’s computer and transmitted by it to our site. As a user, you therefore also have full control over the use of cookies.

V. Contact form and e-mail contact

There is a contact form on our website which can be used to contact us electronically. If a user makes use of this option, the data entered in the input mask will be transmitted to us and stored. The data collected can be found in the respective input mask.

Your consent is obtained for the processing of the data as part of the sending process and reference is made to this privacy policy.

Alternatively, you can contact us via the e-mail address provided under point 1. In this case, the user’s personal data transmitted with the e-mail will be stored.

No data will be passed on to third parties in this context. The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation.

The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. If the e-mail contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.

The processing of the personal data from the input mask serves us solely to process the contact. In the case of contact by e-mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in the processing of the data.

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. For the personal data from the input screen of the contact form and those sent by email, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.

The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.

If the user contacts us by e-mail, they can object to the storage of their personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued.

All personal data stored in the course of contacting us will be deleted in this case.

VI Third party cookies

Google Analytics

This website uses the “Google Analytics” service provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), a company incorporated and operated under Irish law with its registered office at Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”. These are text files that are stored on your computer and enable your use of the website to be analyzed. The information generated in this way is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

Only in rare exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and then shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of the website operator to evaluate your use of the website. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

The storage of cookies can be prevented by setting your browser software accordingly. In this case, however, it is possible that not all functions of this website can be used to their full extent.

You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the Google cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link(https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).

Further information can be found in Google’s terms of use at https://policies.google.com/terms?hl=de and in Google’s privacy policy at

https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

If you would like to block Google Analytics in general, we recommend using the browser add-in “NoScript” or “Ghostery”.

The collection by Google Analytics can be prevented by setting an opt-out cookie:

You have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data as long as the accuracy of your data, which you dispute, is being verified, if you refuse to delete your data due to inadmissible data processing and instead demand the restriction of the processing of your data, if you need your data to assert, exercise or defend legal claims after we no longer need this data after the purpose has been achieved or if you have lodged an objection for reasons of your particular situation, as long as it is not yet clear whether our legitimate reasons prevail.

If the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data may only be processed – apart from being stored – with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.

If the restriction of processing has been restricted, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

  1. Right to erasure

You can demand from the controller that the personal data concerning you be deleted immediately if and insofar as the requirements for this are met. The controller is obliged to delete this data immediately.

If the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged to do so in accordance with Art. Art. 17 para. Where the controller has made the personal data public and is obliged pursuant to Article 1 GDPR to erase the personal data, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that you as the data subject have requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data.

The right to erasure does not exist if the processing is necessary

(1) to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;

(2) for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;

(3) for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h) and i and Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR;

(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing, or

(5) for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.

  1. Right to information

You have the right to be informed by the controller of the recipients to whom the controller has informed you that you have asserted your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against the controller.

  1. Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to the controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

  1. Right of objection

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Article 6 (1) GDPR. 1 lit. e) or f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

  1. Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

  1. Right to non-automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.
