The con­trol­ler decides (alone or togeth­er with oth­ers) about the pur­poses and means for the pro­cessing of per­son­al data (e.g. names, con­tact details, etc.).

With­draw­ing your con­sent to data processing

Some data pro­cessing oper­a­tions can only be under­taken with your express con­sent. You may with­draw your gran­ted con­sent at any time. There are no form require­ments for with­draw­ing your con­sent and a simple email is suf­fi­cient. The with­draw­al of con­sent does not affect the legit­im­acy of the data pro­cessing which occurred pri­or to the withdrawal.

Right to lodge a com­plaint with a super­vis­ory authority

As the data sub­ject, you have the right to lodge a com­plaint with the com­pet­ent super­vis­ory author­ity in the event of a viol­a­tion of data pro­tec­tion law. The com­pet­ent super­vis­ory author­ity for mat­ters of data pro­tec­tion is the state data pro­tec­tion com­mis­sion­er (Landes­datens­chutz­beau­ftragter) of the Ger­man state in which our com­pany has its registered office. Please click the fol­low­ing link for a list of the data pro­tec­tion com­mis­sion­ers and their con­tact details: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.

Right to data portability

You have the right to demand that data which are auto­mat­ic­ally pro­cessed based on your con­sent or in the ful­fil­ment of a con­tract are provided to you or to third parties in a machine-read­able format. If you request that the data is provided dir­ectly to anoth­er con­trol­ler, this will only be done where tech­nic­ally feasible.

Right of access, rec­ti­fic­a­tion, block­ing, erasure

Under the applic­able leg­al pro­vi­sions, you have the right to demand, at any time, access to your stored per­son­al data (free of charge) and inform­a­tion about their ori­gin and recip­i­ent and the pur­pose of the data pro­cessing; you also have the right (where appro­pri­ate) to demand rec­ti­fic­a­tion, block­ing or eras­ure of these data. With regard to this or if you have oth­er ques­tions on the mat­ter of per­son­al data, you may con­tact us at any time. You can find our con­tact details in the leg­al notice sec­tion (Imprint).

SSL/TLS encryp­tion

For secur­ity reas­ons and in order to pro­tect con­fid­en­tial con­tent that you sub­mit to us as the web­site oper­at­or, our web­site uses SSL/TLS encryp­tion. This is done to pre­vent third parties from read­ing the data you trans­mit to this web­site. If your con­nec­tion is encryp­ted, your browser’s address bar will dis­play “https://” and the browser status bar will show a pad­lock symbol.

Serv­er log files

The web­site pro­vider uses serv­er log files to col­lect and store inform­a­tion which is auto­mat­ic­ally trans­mit­ted to us by your browser. These are:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Your oper­at­ing system
  • Refer­rer URL
  • Host­name of the access­ing computer
  • Time of the serv­er request
  • IP address

These data are not com­bined with data from oth­er data sources. The data pro­cessing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, which allows the pro­cessing of data for the per­form­ance of a con­tract or to take steps pri­or to enter­ing into a contract.

Con­tact form

Data sub­mit­ted through con­tact forms are stored togeth­er with your con­tact details for the pur­pose of pro­cessing your inquiry and to be ready for any sub­sequent ques­tions. These data will not be passed on except with your consent.

The data you enter in the con­tact form are pro­cessed exclus­ively on the basis of your con­sent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You may with­draw your gran­ted con­sent at any time. There are no form require­ments for with­draw­ing your con­sent and a simple email is suf­fi­cient. The with­draw­al of con­sent does not affect the legit­im­acy of the data pro­cessing which occurred pri­or to the withdrawal.

Data sub­mit­ted via the con­tact form remain with us until you request the eras­ure, with­draw your con­sent to their stor­age or there is no longer any need for stor­ing the data. This has no effect on man­dat­ory pro­vi­sions of the law, in par­tic­u­lar with regard to stat­utory reten­tion periods.

You­Tube

Our web­site uses You­Tube plu­gins to integ­rate and dis­play video con­tent. The video portal is oper­ated by You­Tube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

Call­ing up a webpage which includes an integ­rated You­Tube plu­gin will estab­lish a con­nec­tion to the serv­ers of You­Tube. You­Tube will there­fore learn which of our webpages you have visited.

If you are logged into your You­Tube account, You­Tube will be enabled to attrib­ute your surf­ing activ­it­ies dir­ectly to your per­son­al pro­file. You can avoid this by first log­ging out from your account.

The use of You­Tube serves to improve the attract­ive­ness of our online pres­ence. This con­sti­tutes a legit­im­ate interest with­in the mean­ing of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

For details on the hand­ling of user data, please refer to the You­Tube pri­vacy policy under: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=en.

Cook­ies

This web­site uses cook­ies. Cook­ies are small text files which are stored on your device (computer/smartphone/tablet) by your web browser. Cook­ies help us to make our web­site more user-friendly, more effect­ive and more secure.

Some cook­ies are called “ses­sion cook­ies”. Ses­sion cook­ies are auto­mat­ic­ally deleted once the browser ses­sion is con­cluded. Oth­er cook­ies how­ever remain on your device until you delete them your­self. These cook­ies help us to recog­nise you when you return to our website.

Mod­ern web browsers allow you to mon­it­or, restrict or pre­vent the pla­cing of cook­ies. Many web browsers can be con­figured to delete cook­ies auto­mat­ic­ally once the pro­gramme is closed. Deac­tiv­at­ing cook­ies can have the con­sequence of lim­it­ing the func­tion­al­ity of our website.

Cook­ies which are required to carry out elec­tron­ic com­mu­nic­a­tion or to provide cer­tain func­tions you request (e.g. shop­ping cart) are placed in accord­ance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the oper­at­or of this web­site, we have a legit­im­ate interest in stor­ing cook­ies to enable us to optim­ise the pro­vi­sion of our ser­vices and to elim­in­ate any tech­nic­al mal­func­tions. The place­ment of oth­er cook­ies (e.g. for ana­lyt­ic­al pur­poses) is reg­u­lated sep­ar­ately in this data pri­vacy statement.

Use of script lib­rar­ies (Google Web Fonts)

We use script and font lib­rar­ies on this web­site to ensure the cor­rect and aes­thet­ic­ally pleas­ing present­a­tion of our con­tent by the vari­ous dif­fer­ent browsers, such as Google Web Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). In order to avoid repeatedly hav­ing to re-load data, Google Web Fonts will be loaded into the cache of your browser. If your browser does not sup­port Google Web Fonts or if it pre­vents this access, the con­tents will be shown in the stand­ard font.

Call­ing up script or font lib­rar­ies will auto­mat­ic­ally estab­lish a con­nec­tion to the oper­at­or of the lib­rary. It is the­or­et­ic­ally pos­sible – though cur­rently unclear wheth­er or not this would hap­pen and for which pur­poses – that the oper­at­ors of these lib­rar­ies col­lect data.

For the data pri­vacy policy of the lib­rary oper­at­or Google, please vis­it: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Use of Adobe Typekit

We use Adobe Typekit for the visu­al design of our web­site. Typekit is a ser­vice provided by Adobe Sys­tems Soft­ware Ire­land Ltd., which grants us access to a font lib­rary. In order to integ­rate the fonts used by us, your browser has to estab­lish a con­nec­tion to the Adobe serv­er in the USA and down­load the font required for our web­site. This will tell Adobe that our web­site has been accessed from your IP address. For fur­ther inform­a­tion on Adobe Typekit, please refer to the Adobe pri­vacy notice: www.adobe.com/privacy/typekit.html

Use of Google Maps

This web­site uses the Google Maps API for the visu­al dis­play of geo­graph­ic­al inform­a­tion. When using Google maps, Google also col­lects, pro­cesses and uses data relat­ing to the use of the map func­tions by the vis­it­ors. For fur­ther inform­a­tion on Google’s data pro­cessing prac­tices, please refer to the Google pri­vacy policy. Under this link, you will also be able to access and change your per­son­al data pri­vacy settings.

Google Ana­lyt­ics

Our web­site uses func­tions of the web ana­lyt­ics pro­vider Google Ana­lyt­ics. The web ana­lyt­ics ser­vices are provided by Google LLC 1600 Amphi­theatre Park­way Moun­tain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Ana­lyt­ics uses “cook­ies”. Cook­ies are small web files stored by your web browser on your device (com­puter, smart­phone, tab­let) to enable your use of web­sites. The inform­a­tion gen­er­ated by the cook­ie about your use of our web­site is trans­ferred to and stored on a Google serv­er. These serv­ers are gen­er­ally loc­ated in the USA.

Google Ana­lyt­ics cook­ies are placed in accord­ance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the oper­at­or of this web­site, we have a legit­im­ate interest in ana­lys­ing user beha­viour in order to optim­ise our web­site and also (if applic­able) our advertising.

IP anonym­iz­a­tion

We use Google Ana­lyt­ics in com­bin­a­tion with the IP anonym­iz­a­tion func­tion. It ensures that, if you are loc­ated in a Mem­ber State of the European Uni­on or any oth­er state party to the Agree­ment on the European Eco­nom­ic Area, Google will trun­cate your IP address before it is trans­ferred to the USA. There may be excep­tion­al cases where Google will send the full IP address to a US serv­er and trun­cate it there. Google will use this inform­a­tion at our behest in order to ana­lyse your use of the web­site, pre­pare reports about web­site activ­it­ies and to provide us with oth­er ser­vices relat­ing to web­site and Inter­net use. The IP address trans­ferred by Google Ana­lyt­ics is not com­bined with oth­er Google data.

Browser Plu­gin

You can pre­vent your browser from pla­cing cook­ies, but this may lim­it some of the func­tion­al­ity of our web­site. You can also pre­vent the col­lec­tion of data relat­ing to your web­site use (includ­ing your IP address) and the sub­sequent pro­cessing by Google, by down­load­ing and installing the browser plu­gin avail­able under the fol­low­ing link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

Object­ing to the col­lec­tion of data

You can pre­vent Google Ana­lyt­ics from col­lect­ing your data by click­ing the fol­low­ing link. This will cause the place­ment of an opt-out cook­ie which will pre­vent the col­lec­tion of your data dur­ing future vis­its to our web­site: Deac­tiv­ate Google Analytics.

For details relat­ing to Google Ana­lyt­ics hand­ling of user data, please con­sult the Google data pri­vacy notice: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

Com­mis­sioned data processing

In order to fully com­ply with the stat­utory data pro­tec­tion require­ments, we have con­cluded a data pro­cessor agree­ment with Google.

Demo­graph­ics and Google Analytics

Our web­site uses the Google Ana­lyt­ics “Demo­graph­ics” fea­ture. It enables the cre­ation of reports con­tain­ing inform­a­tion on the age, gender and interests of the page users. These data ori­gin­ate from Google’s interest-spe­cif­ic advert­ising and user data provided by third-party pro­viders. It is impossible to attrib­ute these data to a spe­cif­ic per­son. You can deac­tiv­ate this func­tion at any time. You can do this through the set­tings in your Google account or by issu­ing a blanket objec­tion to the use of your data by Google Ana­lyt­ics as described under “Object­ing to the col­lec­tion of data”.

Changes to our data pri­vacy provisions

We reserve the right to adapt this data pri­vacy state­ment in order to bring it in line with cur­rent leg­al require­ments or to ensure the data pri­vacy state­ment reflects changes to our ser­vices, for example when intro­du­cing new ser­vices. Your next vis­it will then be sub­ject to the new data pri­vacy statement.
