Collection of general information when visiting our website

Nature and purpose of processing

When you access our website, i.e. even if you do not register or otherwise submit information, information of a general nature is automatically collected. This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your internet service provider, your IP address and the like.

Specifically, they are processed for the following purposes:

  • Ensuring a smooth connection to the website,
  • Ensuring smooth use of our website,
  • Evaluating system security and stability, and
  • for other administrative purposes.

We do not use your data to draw conclusions about your person. Information of this kind may be statistically evaluated by us to optimise our website and the technology behind it.


Legal basis

The processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.


Recipients

Recipients of the data may be technical service providers who act as order processors for the operation and maintenance of our website.


Storage period

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. For data used to provide the website, this is generally the case when the respective session has ended.


Provision prescribed or required

The provision of the aforementioned personal data is neither legally nor contractually required. However, without the IP address, the service and functionality of our website cannot be guaranteed. In addition, individual services and services may not be available or may be restricted. For this reason, an objection is excluded.


Cookies

Nature and purpose of processing

Like many other websites, we also use so-called "cookies". Cookies are small text files that are placed and stored on your end device (laptop, tablet, smartphone or similar) when you visit our website.

This provides us with certain data such as IP address, browser used and operating system. This makes it possible to recognise returning users of the website. This makes it easier for users to use the website. For example, when using cookies, the visitor does not have to re-enter access data each time he visits the website. This is then handled by the website and the cookie stored on the visitor's computer.

Cookies cannot be used to start programmes or to transfer viruses to a computer.

On our website, we distinguish between necessary and non-necessary (e.g. preferences, statistics, marketing) cookies. Necessary cookies help to make a website usable by enabling basic functions such as page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies. They are required.

Cookies from statistical services help us to track user behaviour on our website and thus improve our service and website for you. We only use these cookies with your prior consent.

Marketing cookies store information about websites you have used. This information is used to display advertisements tailored to your interests. Marketing cookies may only be used with your prior consent. We have decided not to use these cookies.

Under no circumstances will the data we collect be passed on to third parties without your prior consent or linked to personal data without your consent.

Newsletter

Type and purpose of processing

Your data will only be used to send you the newsletter you have subscribed to by email. Your name is provided to be able to address you personally in the newsletter and, if necessary, to identify you if you wish to exercise your rights as a data subject.

To receive the newsletter, it is sufficient to provide your e-mail address. When registering to receive our newsletter, the data you provide will be used exclusively for this purpose. Subscribers may also be informed by email about circumstances relevant to the service or registration (e.g. changes to the newsletter offer or technical circumstances).

For an effective registration, we require a valid e-mail address. In order to verify that a registration is actually made by the owner of an email address, we use the "double-opt-in" procedure. For this purpose, we log the order for the newsletter, the sending of a confirmation e-mail and the receipt of the response requested herewith. No further data is collected. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter and is not passed on to third parties.


Legal basis

On the basis of your express consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR), we will regularly send you our newsletter or comparable information via email to your specified email address.

You can revoke your consent to the storage of your personal data and its use for sending the newsletter at any time with effect for the future. You will find a link to this effect in every newsletter. You can also unsubscribe directly on this website at any time or inform us of your revocation using the contact option provided at the end of this data protection notice.

Recipients of the data are, if applicable, order processors.


Storage period

The data will only be processed in this context as long as the corresponding consent is given. After that, they will be deleted.


Provision mandatory or required

The provision of your personal data is voluntary, based solely on your consent. Unfortunately, we cannot send you our newsletter without your consent.


Contact form

Type and purpose of processing

The data you enter will be stored for the purpose of individual communication with you. For this purpose, it is necessary to provide a valid email address and your name. This serves the purpose of assigning the enquiry and subsequently answering it. The provision of further data is optional.


Legal basis

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is based on a legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

By providing the contact form, we would like to enable you to contact us in an uncomplicated manner. The information you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing the enquiry and for possible follow-up questions.

Use of analysis tools

Use and application of Google Analytics

We have integrated the components Google Universal Analytics and Google Analytics 4 of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA on this website.

 

Google Analytics is a web analysis service that creates pseudonymous user profiles and uses cookies. We use web analysis to optimise our website and to analyse the costs and benefits of marketing activities.

We use Google Analytics with active IP anonymisation for web analysis. This means that the IP address of your internet connection is shortened and anonymised by Google if access to our website is from a member state of the European Union or from another state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

Google Universal Analytics uses a so-called user ID, which is assigned to you as a user and not only to a specific end device. Apart from this ID, we will not transmit any other personal data from which your identification could be derived.

We have concluded an order processing contract with Google that includes the EU standard contractual clauses. This contract ensures that your data is processed in compliance with the regulations of the GDPR and that the protection of your data is guaranteed.


Third country transfer

Google processes your data in the USA. The USA is a so-called unsafe third country. This means that there is no level of data protection in the United States comparable to that in the EU. There is therefore a risk that US authorities may gain access to the personal data due to legal provisions applicable there. As an EU citizen, you have no effective legal protection against such access either in the USA or in the EU.

However, we have concluded a contract with Google that includes the EU standard contractual clauses. This ensures that a level of protection comparable to that in the EU exists.


Legal basis

The legal basis for the integration of Google Analytics and the associated data transfer to Google is your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO), which can be revoked at any time.

Further information on Google Analytics can be found at developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.


Google Tag Manager

We use the Google Tag Manager of Google LLC.

This service allows website tags to be managed via an interface. Tags are small sections of code that, for example, record (track) your activities on our website. The Google Tag Manager itself does not set cookies, only tags and does not collect any personal data. The service provides for the triggering of other tags, which in turn may collect data. However, Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If a deactivation has been made at domain or cookie level, this remains in place for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.


Legal basis

The legal basis for the integration of Google Tag Manager is your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO), which can be revoked at any time.

 

Social Plugins

Type and purpose of processing

Type and purpose of processing We offer you the option of using so-called "social media buttons" on our website. To protect your data, we rely on the "Shariff" solution for implementation. This means that these buttons are only integrated on the website as a graphic that contains a link to the corresponding website of the button provider. By clicking on the graphic, you are thus redirected to the services of the respective provider. Only then will your data be sent to the respective providers. If you do not click on the graphic, there is no exchange between you and the providers of the social media buttons. Information about the collection and use of your data in the social networks can be found in the respective terms of use of the corresponding providers. You can find more information about the Shariff solution here: http://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html

We have integrated the social media buttons of the following networks on our website:

  • Facebook

SSL encryption

To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption methods (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS.

Processors used

The following organisations, companies or persons have been commissioned by the operator of this website to process data:

 

Changes to our data protection policy

We reserve the right to adapt this data protection declaration so that it always complies with the current legal requirements or in order to implement changes to our services in the data protection declaration, e.g. when introducing new services. The new data protection statement will then apply to your next visit.
