Privacy policy

Some data-processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time. An informal email is sufficient. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.

As an affected person you have the right to complain to the competent supervisory authority in the event of a data-protection violation. The competent supervisory authority for data-protection questions is the state data-protection commissioner of the federal state where our company is based. The following link provides a list of data-protection officers and their contact details: bfdi.bund.de.

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party. The data is provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this is only done insofar as it is technically feasible.

Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin, the recipient, and the purpose of the data processing, and, where applicable, a right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data. You may contact us at any time via the contact options listed in the legal notice for this and for further questions on the subject of personal data.

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL/TLS encryption. This means that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can identify an encrypted connection by the „https://" prefix in your browser's address bar and the lock icon in the browser bar.

Data submitted via the contact form, including your contact details, is stored for the purpose of processing your request or for follow-up questions. This data is not passed on without your consent.

The data entered into the contact form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time. An informal email is sufficient. The lawfulness of the data-processing operations carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.

Data submitted via the contact form remains with us until you ask us to delete it, withdraw your consent for storage, or there is no longer any need to store the data. Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular retention periods, remain unaffected.

Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your browser stores on your device. Cookies help us make our offering more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Some cookies are „session cookies" and are automatically deleted at the end of your browser session. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Such cookies help us recognise you when you return to our website.

With a modern browser you can monitor, limit, or block the setting of cookies. Many browsers can be configured to delete cookies automatically when the program closes. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our website.

The setting of cookies that is necessary to carry out electronic communications or to provide certain functions you have requested (such as a shopping cart) is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. Where other cookies (for example for analytics functions) are set, they are addressed separately in this privacy policy.

Our website uses functions of the web-analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses „cookies", small text files that your browser stores on your device and that allow analysis of website use. The information about your use of our website generated by the cookie is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. The server location is generally the USA.

The setting of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6 (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, where appropriate, our advertising.

We use Google Analytics with the IP anonymisation function. This ensures that Google shortens your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission to the USA. In exceptional cases the full IP address will be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide further services related to website and internet use. The IP address transmitted by Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

You can prevent your browser from setting cookies. Some features of our website may then be restricted. You can also prevent the collection of data relating to your use of the website, including your IP address and subsequent processing by Google. This is possible by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available via the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by clicking the following link. An opt-out cookie is set that prevents the collection of your data on future visits to our website: Disable Google Analytics.

Details on how Google Analytics handles user data can be found in Google's privacy policy: support.google.com/analytics.

To fully meet the statutory data-protection requirements we have entered into a data-processing agreement with Google.

Our website uses the „demographic characteristics" function of Google Analytics. With it, reports can be created that contain statements about the age, gender, and interests of visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising by Google as well as from visitor data from third-party providers. The data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can disable this function at any time via the advertising settings in your Google account or by generally objecting to the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as explained under „Objection to data collection".

Our website uses Google AdWords. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States.

AdWords is an online advertising programme. Within the online advertising programme we work with conversion tracking. After a click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set for conversion tracking. Cookies are small text files that your browser stores on your device. Google AdWords cookies expire after 30 days and do not serve to personally identify users. The cookie allows Google and us to recognise that you clicked on an ad and were redirected to our website.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. Conversion cookies are used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who use conversion tracking. AdWords customers learn how many users have clicked on their ad and were redirected to pages with a conversion-tracking tag. AdWords customers, however, do not receive any information that allows users to be personally identified. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can object to such use. To do so, deactivate the conversion cookie in your browser's user settings. As a result, you will also not be included in the conversion-tracking statistics.

Conversion cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. As the website operator we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and our advertising.

Details on Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking can be found in Google's privacy provisions: google.de/policies/privacy.

With a modern browser you can monitor, limit, or block the setting of cookies. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our website.
