Privacy Policy

The protection of personal data is important to us. Therefore, we process personal data in accordance with the applicable European and national legislation.

You can of course withdraw your declaration(s) of consent at any time, with future effect. To do this, please contact the Controller in accordance with § 1.

The following policy provides an overview of what kind of data is collected, how this data is used and disclosed, what security measures we take to protect your data and how you can obtain information about the details submitted to us.
 

Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Provided we obtain the Data Subject's consent to process their personal data, Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. When processing personal data that is required to fulfil a contract to which the Data Subject is a party, Art. 6 Para. 1 S. b) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to any processing that is required to implement pre-contractual measures. If the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which we are subject, Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 c) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing is required to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and basic freedoms of the Data Subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, then Art. 6 Para. 1 S.1 f) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

Data deletion and storage duration
The Data Subject's personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the reason for its storage no longer applies. Data may also be stored if this is specified by European or national legislators in EU statutory regulations, laws or other provisions to which we are subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted when a storage period prescribed by the specified standards expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data in order to conclude or fulfil a contract.

§ 2 DEFINITIONS

This Privacy Policy is based on the terms used by the European regulator when adopting the EU General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as: "GDPR"). The Privacy Policy should be easy to read and understand. To ensure that this is the case, the main terms are explained below:

a.    Personal data is any information that refers to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as "Data Subject"). An identifiable natural person is considered to be anyone who can be directly or indirectly identified, especially by assigning an identifier such as a name, to an ID number, location data, online identifier or one or more special characteristics that describe the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, financial, cultural or social identity of this natural person. 

b.   The Data Subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is processed by the Controller.

c.    Processing is any process performed with or without the help of automated procedures or any such series of processes in connection with personal data, such as collection, recording, organisation, filing, storage, adaptation or amendment, selection, querying, use, disclosure by transmission, distribution or any other form of provision, comparison or linking, restriction, deletion or destruction.

d.    Profiling is any kind of automated processing of personal data that consists of using this personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects that refer to a natural person, especially to analyse or predict aspects relating to the professional performance, financial situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, whereabouts or change of location of this natural person.

e.    Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be assigned to a specific Data Subject without the use of additional information, provided this additional information is stored separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data cannot be assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person.

f.    The Controller is the natural person or legal entity, authority, agency or other body that alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. If the purposes and means of this processing are specified by EU legislation or the law of the Member States, then the Controller or the specific criteria for their appointment can be specified in accordance with EU legislation or the law of the Member States.

g.    The Processor is a natural person or legal entity, authority, agency or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the Controller.

h.    The Recipient is a natural person or legal entity, authority, agency or other body to whom personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether this is a third party or not. However, authorities that may receive personal data as part of a specific investigation mandate in accordance with EU legislation or the law of the Member States are not considered to be Recipients.

i.    A third party is a natural person or legal entity, authority, agency or other body other than the Data Subject, Controller, Processor and anyone who is authorised to process personal data under the direct responsibility of the Controller or Processor.

j.    Consent is any voluntary, informed and unambiguous declaration of intent provided by the Data Subject for the specific case, in the form of a declaration or other clearly affirmative action, with which the Data Subject indicates that they consent to the processing of their personal data.

§ 3 WEBSITE PROVISION AND CREATION OF LOG FILES

1.    If you only use the website for information purposes, i.e. if you do not register or provide us with any other data, we will automatically collect the following data and information from the visiting computer system every time you access the website:

a.    The user's IP address
b.    Information about the browser type and version used
c.    The user's operating system
d.    The user's internet service provider
e.    Date and time of access
f.    Websites from which the user's system accessed the website
g.    Websites that the user's system accessed via our website
h.    Content accessed (specific pages)
i.    Amount of data transmitted in each case
j.    Language and version of the browser software
k.    Search engines used
l.    Names of downloaded files

2.    Data will also be stored in our system's log files. This data is not stored together with other personal user data

3.    The legal basis for the temporary storage of log files is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. f) of the GDPR.

4.    The system's temporary storage of the IP address is necessary to

a.    allow 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.
b.    optimise the content of our website and any adverts.
c.    to ensure the functionality of our information technology systems and the technology behind our website.
d.    to provide law enforcement authorities with the information required for law enforcement in the event of a cyber attack.

Data will be stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website. We will also use the data to optimise the website and ensure the security of our information technology systems. In this context, the data will not be evaluated for marketing purposes. For this purpose, we also have a legitimate interest in the data processing in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 f) of the GDPR.

5.    The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected – in this case at the end of the session.
If the data is stored in log files, this will be after seven days at the latest. Extended storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses are deleted or anonymised, so that they can no longer be assigned to the accessing client.

6.    The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files are mandatory for the operation of the website, which is why there is no opt-out option.

§ 4 USE OF COOKIES

1.    This website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that are sent to your browser by a web server as soon as you visit a website, are stored locally on your device (PC, notebook, tablet, smartphone, etc.), are stored on your computer and provide the user (i.e. us) with certain information. Cookies are used to make the website more customer-friendly and secure and in particular to collect usage-related information, such as usage frequency, number of page visits and website usage behaviour, for example. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. This cookie contains a distinctive character string (cookie ID) that allows your browser to be clearly identified when you next access the website.

2.    We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require the accessing browser to be identified even after you have left the site. The cookies therefore store and transmit the following data:
o    Log-in information

We also use cookies on our website that enable an analysis of your browsing behaviour. The following data can be transmitted in this way:
o    Entered search terms
o    Frequency of page views
o    Use of website functions

The data collected in this way is technically pseudonymised. So it is no longer possible to assign the data to the accessing user. The data will not be stored together with other personal data. When accessing our website, an info banner will notify you of the use of cookies for analysis purposes and refer you to this Privacy Policy. In this context, you will also be told how to prevent the storage of cookies in your browser settings.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 f) of the GDPR.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using technically necessary cookies is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 f) of the GDPR.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies for analysis purposes with the user's consent is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 a) of the GDPR.

3.    The purpose of using technically required cookies is to make it easier for you to use websites. Some features of our website cannot work without the use of cookies. These require your browser to be recognised again even after you have left the site.

We need cookies for the following applications:
o    Remembering search terms

The user data collected by technically required cookies will not be used to create user profiles.
The purpose of using cookies that are not technically required is to improve the quality of our website and its content. Analysis cookies tell us how the website is used, allowing us to continuously optimise our service. [To be more precise] This information is used to automatically recognise you and make it easier for you to navigate when you revisit the website from the same device. For this purpose, we also have a legitimate interest in the processing of personal data in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 f) of the GDPR.

4.    Cookies will also be stored after the browser session has ended and can be re-accessed when you revisit the site. However, cookies are stored on your computer and transmitted to our website from there. You therefore have full control over the use of cookies. If you do not want cookies to collect data, you can adjust your browser via the "Settings" menu so that you are notified about the placing of cookies or can prevent the placing of cookies in general and also delete individual cookies. Please note, however, that disabling cookies may restrict the functionality of this website. As far as session cookies are concerned, these will be automatically deleted when you leave the website.

§ 6 DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA TO THIRD PARTIES

1. Fonts

1.    Google web fonts

This site uses web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When accessing a site, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to correctly display text and fonts.
For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to the Google servers. Google is therefore notified that our website has been accessed by your IP address. Google web fonts are used in the interests of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online services. This represents a legitimate interest within the context of Art. 6 Para. 1 f) of the GDPR. If your browser does not support web fonts, your computer will use a standard font.

More information about Google web fonts is available at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google's Privacy Policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/ 

2.    Web fonts 
For the uniform display of fonts, this site uses web fonts provided by Monotype Imaging Inc. or one of the subsidiaries of MyFonts Inc. or Linotype (address: 600 Unicorn Park Drive, Woburn, MA 01801, USA). When accessing a site, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to correctly display text and fonts. For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to the Monotype servers. Monotype is therefore notified that our website has been accessed by your IP address. Monotype is used in the interests of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online services. This represents a legitimate interest within the context of Art. 6 Para. 1 f) of the GDPR. If your browser does not support web fonts, your computer will use a standard font.
Monotype does not collect or store any personal data; more information about data protection at Monotype is available at:
https://www.monotype.com/de/rechtshinweise/datenschutzrichtlinie/web-font-tracking-privacy-policy/ 

§ 7 CONTACT FORM AND EMAIL CONTACT

1.    A contact form is available on our website that can be used to contact us electronically. If you use this option, the data entered in the input screen will be transmitted to us and stored. When the message is sent, the following data will also be stored:
o    User's IP address
o    Date and time of registration

As part of the submission process, your consent to the processing of the data will be obtained and reference made to this Privacy Policy.
Alternatively, you can contact us via the email address provided. In this case, the personal data transmitted with the email will be stored.
If this involves information about communication channels (e.g. email address, telephone number), you also consent to us contacting you via this communication channel to answer your query.
In this context, the data will not be disclosed to third parties. The data will only be used to manage the conversation

2.    With the user's consent, the legal basis for processing the data is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. a) of the GDPR. The legal basis for processing the data transmitted when sending an email is Art. 6 Para. 1 S.1 f) of the GDPR. If the aim of the email contact is to conclude a contract, then the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 Para. 1S. 1 b) of the GDPR.

3.    We only use the processing of personal data from the input screen to manage the contact. We will of course only use the data from your email enquiry for the purpose for which you provided it when contacting us. If you contact us via email, our response also represents a necessary legitimate interest for processing the data. The other personal data processed during the submission process is used to prevent any misuse of the contact form and ensure the security of our information technology systems.

4.    The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of personal data from the contact form input screen and that submitted via email, this occurs when the respective conversation with the user comes to an end. The conversation comes to an end when circumstances lead us to believe that the issue in question has been finally resolved.

5.    You have the option of withdrawing your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time. If you contact us via email, you can object to the storage of your personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued. With regard to the withdrawal of consent/objection to storage, please contact the Controller or Data Protection Officer via email or post in accordance with § 1. In this case, any personal data that has been stored during the contact process will be deleted.

§ 8 WEB ANALYSIS BY GOOGLE ANALYTICS (WITH PSEUDONYMISATION)

1.    We use "Google Analytics" and "Google Remarketing" on our website. These are services provided by Google Inc. (Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Monutain View, CA 94043, USA) to analyse our users' browsing behaviour. The software places a cookie on your computer (for cookies, see above). If individual pages of our website are accessed, the following data will be stored:

a.    Two bytes of the IP address of the user's accessing system
b.    The accessed website
c.    Entry and exit pages
d.    The time spent on the website and the drop-off rate
e.    The frequency of accessing the website
f.    Country of origin and regional origin, language, browser, operating system, screen resolution, use of Flash or Java
g.    Search engines and search terms used

The information generated by the cookie about the use of this website by the user is usually transmitted to a Google Server in the US, where it is stored.
This website uses Google Analytics with the "_anonymizeIp()" extension. The software is set so that IP addresses are not stored in full, but only in abbreviated form. This means that it is no longer possible to assign the shortened IP address to the accessing computer. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the US, where it is abbreviated. However, the IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. Google may also transmit this information to third parties, if legally required to do so or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. Please note that Google has its own data protection guidelines (http://www.google.de/intl/de/privacy.html) that are separate to ours. We assume no responsibility or liability for these guidelines and processes.

Google will only use the (anonymous) information obtained on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate the use of the website. For example, to compile reports on website activity and provide the website operator with other services associated with website & internet usage.

Third-party providers, including Google, advertise on websites on the internet. Third-party providers, including Google, use stored cookies to display adverts based on a user's previous visits to this website.

Google Remarketing technology addresses users who have already visited this website and our online services, in the form of targeted advertising on Google Partner Network websites. These adverts are placed using the above-mentioned cookies, which help to analyse user behaviour when visiting the website and are then used for targeted product recommendations and interest-based advertising.

2.    The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 f) of the GDPR. For exceptional cases when personal data is transmitted to the US, Google is subject to the EU-US Privacy Shield, www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

3.    Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website and compile reports on website activity. By evaluating the data obtained, we are able to compile information about the use of the individual components of our website. This helps us to continuously improve our website and its user-friendliness. For this purpose, we also have a legitimate interest in processing the data in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 f) of the GDPR. By anonymising the IP address, users' interests in protecting their personal data are adequately taken into account.

4.    The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for recording purposes. In our case, after 26 months.

5.    The cookies used will be stored on your computer and transmitted from there to our website. If you do not consent to the collection and evaluation of usage data, you can prevent this by disabling or restricting the use of cookies in your browser software settings. Cookies that have already been stored can be deleted at any time. In this case, however, you may be unable to fully use all the features of this website.

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

Alternatively, you can simply object to the use of cookies on our website, by ticking the box below. In this case, an "opt-out cookie“ will be installed in your computer browser and no more session data will be collected. Please note, however, that when deleting cookies from your computer, this opt-out cookie will also be deleted and will have to be reactivated, if necessary.

By clicking the following link: Disable Google Analytics, you can disable data collection by Google Analytics. An "opt-out cookie" will therefore be stored on your computer that will prevent the future collection of your personal data when visiting our website.

6.    The third-party provider is Google Dublin, Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436?1001. More information is available in the terms and conditions of use at www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html, in the data protection overview at www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/learn/privacy.html and in the Privacy Policy at www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

§ 9 INTEGRATION OF GOOGLE MAPS

1.    We use the Google Maps service on our website. This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website, enabling you to conveniently use the maps function.

2.    When you visit the website, Google is notified that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. The data collected when visiting our website is also transmitted. This happens regardless of whether you are logged into your Google user account or not. If you are logged into Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want this data to be assigned to your Google profile, you must log out before activating the button. Google will store your data as a user profile and use it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its website. Such an evaluation is conducted to provide needs-based advertising, in particular, and to inform other users of the social network about your activity on our website (even if you are not logged in). You have the right to object to the creation of this user profile, although you must contact Google to exercise this.

3.    Further information about the purpose and scope of this data collection and its processing by the plug-in provider is available in the provider's Privacy Policy, along with more information about your rights in this regard and settings to protect your privacy: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy. Google also processes your personal data in the US and is subject to the EU-US Privacy Shield, www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

§ 10 SOCIAL MEDIA PLUG-INS

Social plug-ins in general:

1. Facebook

1.    This website uses social plug-ins from the Facebook social network (Facebook, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA). These plug-ins enable you to place bookmarks on this website and share these with other users of the social network. You can recognise these plug-ins by the Facebook logo or its typical "Like" button. An overview of Facebook plug-ins is available at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

2.    We use the two-click solution. This essentially means that when you visit our website, no personal data is initially disclosed to Facebook. We give you the option of communicating directly with Facebook via the icon. Facebook is only notified that you have accessed the corresponding page of our website when you click the marked field, thereby activating it. Data is disclosed regardless of whether you have a Facebook account or not and are logged into this.

a.    If you click the Facebook "Like" button while logged into your Facebook account, the content of these pages may also be linked to your Facebook profile. In this case, Facebook can also assign your visit to this website to your user account. If you click the activated icon and link the page, for example, Facebook will also store this information in your user account and publicly share it with your contacts. We recommend that you regularly log out after using a social network, and especially before clicking the icon, so as to avoid this being assigned to your profile.

b.    If you are not a member of Facebook or logged out of Facebook before visiting this website, it is still possible that Facebook will be notified of and store your IP address. If you do not want Facebook to be able to assign your visit to our website to your Facebook user account, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website and/or avoid activating the plug-in.
The following data will essentially be transmitted to Facebook:

c.    Browser-related data such as IP address, browser type, operating system, date and time of access, website visited.

d.    User ID (if logged into your Facebook account)

According to Facebook in Germany, IP addresses are anonymised as soon as they are collected. By enabling the plug-in, your personal data will be transmitted to Facebook and stored in the US. As Facebook uses cookies, in particular, to collect data, we recommend that you delete all cookies using your browser's security settings before clicking the greyed-out box.

3.    We have no influence over the data collected and the data processing procedures, nor do we have any knowledge of the full extent of the data collection, processing purposes or storage periods. We also have no information about the deletion of the data collected by Facebook.

4.    Facebook stores the data collected about you as a user profile and uses this for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its website. Such an evaluation is conducted for the display of needs-based advertising, in particular, and to inform other users of the social network about your activity on our website (even if you are not logged in). The plug-ins give you the opportunity to interact with the social network and other users, so that we can improve our service, making it more interesting for you as a user.

5.    The legal basis for the use of plug-ins is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 a) of the GDPR. Facebook is subject to the EU-US Privacy Shield, www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

6.    You have the right to object to the creation of this user profile, although you must contact Facebook to exercise this.

7.    Settings and objections to the use of data for advertising purposes are possible within Facebook profile settings at www.facebook.com/settings. Further information about the purpose and scope of this data collection and its processing, as well as your rights as an effect of and vis-a-vis Facebook is available at www.facebook.com/policy.php, www.facebook.com/help/186325668085084, www.facebook.com/about/privacy/your-info-on-other and www.facebook.com/about/privacy/your-info.
 
 2. Instagram

1.    This website uses social plug-ins from the Instagram social network of Instagram Inc. (Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA, 94025, USA). These plug-ins enable you to place bookmarks on this website and share these with other users of the social network. You can recognise these plug-ins by the square camera symbol and possibly the Instagram logo.

2.    We use the two-click solution. This essentially means that when you visit our webite, no personal data is initially disclosed to Instagram. We give you the option of communicating directly with Instagram via the icon. Instagram is only notified that you have accessed the corresponding page of our website when you click the marked field, thereby activating it. Data is disclosed regardless of whether you have a Facebook account or not and are logged into this.

a. If you click the Instagram icon while logged into your Instagram account, the content of these pages may also be linked to your Instagram profile. In this case, Instagram can also assign your visit to this website to your user account. If you click the activated icon and link the page, for example, Instagram will also store this information in your user account and publicly share it with your contacts. We recommend that you regularly log out after using a social network, and especially before clicking the icon, so as to avoid this being assigned to your profile.

b. If you are not a member of Instagram or logged out of Instagram before visiting this website, it is still possible that Instagram will be notified of and store your IP address. If you do not want Instagram to be able to assign your visit to our website to your Instagram user account, you must log out of Instagram before visiting our website and/or avoid activating the plug-in. The following data will essentially be transmitted to Instagram:

c.    IP address, browser type, date and time of access, source page, operating system, screen resolution

d. Linking this data to your account data by the social media operator

By enabling the plug-in, your personal data will be transmitted to Instagram and stored in the US.

3.    We have no influence over the data collected and the data processing procedures, nor do we have any knowledge of the full extent of the data collection, processing purposes or storage periods. We also have no information about the deletion of the data collected by Instagram.

4.    Instagram stores the data collected about you as a user profile and uses this for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its website. Such an evaluation is conducted for the display of needs-based advertising, in particular, and to inform other users of the social network about your activity on our website (even if you are not logged in). The plug-ins give you the opportunity to interact with the social network and other users, so that we can improve our service, making it more interesting for you as a user.

5.    The legal basis for the use of plug-ins is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 a) of the GDPR.

6. You have the right to object to the creation of this user profile, although you must contact Instagram to exercise this.

7.    Further information about the purpose and scope of this data collection and its processing, as well as your rights as an effect of and vis-a-vis Instagram is available at http://instagram.com/about/legal/privacy/.

§ 11 CHILDREN

Our service is essentially aimed at adults. Anyone under the age of 18 should not transmit any personal data to us without their parent or guardian's consent.
