In principle, we only process our users' personal data to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users is regularly carried out only with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
Insofar as we obtain consent from the data subject for processing personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.
When processing personal data that is necessary to fulfill a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Storage may also take place if this has been provided for by European or national legislators in EU regulations, laws or other regulations to which the person responsible is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted when a storage period prescribed by the above standards expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.
Each time you visit our website, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling computer.
The following data is collected here:
(1) Information about the browser type and version used
(2) The user's operating system
(3) The user's Internet service provider
(4) The user's IP address
(5) Date and time of access
(6) Websites from which the user's system accesses our website
(7) Websites that are accessed by the user's system via our website
The data is also stored in our system's log files. This does not affect the user's IP addresses or other data that makes it possible to assign the data to a user. 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 DSGVO.
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the website to be delivered to the user's computer. To do this, the user's IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.
They are stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website. We also use the data to optimize the website and ensure the security of our information technology systems. There is no evaluation of the data for marketing purposes in this context. For these purposes, there is also our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. If the data is collected to provide 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. Further storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or distorted so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.
The collection of data to provide the website and the storage of data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. There is therefore no option for the user to object.

When a user calls up a website, a cookie can be stored on the user's operating system.

d) Duration of storage, right of objection and removal
Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted from it to our site. As a user, you therefore also have full control over the use of cookies.

This website uses features of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The use includes the “Universal Analytics” operating mode. This makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus analyze a user's activities across devices.
Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies.” These are text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
We have activated the IP anonymization feature on this website. As a result, your IP address is abbreviated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there.
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and Internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google.
Our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The data sent by us and linked to cookies, user IDs (e.g. user ID) or advertising IDs is automatically deleted after 14 months. Data whose storage period has been reached is automatically deleted once a month. You can find more information about terms of use and data protection at Google Analytics terms or at Google policies.
You can prevent cookies from being saved by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website in full. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading the browser plug-in available at the following link and install.

In this case, all personal data that was stored in the course of contacting us will be deleted.
If the legal requirements are met, you have the right to request information from us about personal data or data processing concerning you (Article 15 GDPR), correction, deletion and restriction of personal data or data processing concerning you (Articles 16 to 18 GDPR) and transfer of personal data concerning you (Article 20 GDPR).
