The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest arises from the purposes listed above for data collection.

Cookies

Like many other websites, we also use „cookies“. Cookies are small text files that are transferred from a website server to your hard drive. This automatically provides us with certain data such as IP address, browser used, operating system, and your connection to the Internet. Cookies cannot be used to start programs or transmit viruses to a computer. The information contained in cookies allows us to facilitate navigation and enable the correct display of our websites. Under no circumstances will the data collected by us be passed on to third parties or linked with personal data without your consent. Of course, you can also view our website without cookies. Internet browsers are regularly set to accept cookies. In general, you can disable the use of cookies at any time via your browser settings. Please use the help functions of your Internet browser to find out how to change these settings. Please note that some functions of our website may not work if you have disabled the use of cookies.

Registration on Our Website

When registering to use our personalized services, some personal data is collected, such as name, address, contact and communication data such as phone number and email address. Once registered, you can access content and services that we only offer to registered users. Registered users also have the option of changing or deleting the data provided during registration at any time. Of course, we will also provide you with information about the personal data we have stored about you at any time. We will gladly correct or delete this data upon your request, provided there are no legal storage obligations. To contact us regarding this matter, please use the contact details at the end of this privacy policy.

Provision of Paid Services

To provide paid services, we ask for additional data, such as payment details, in order to complete your order. We store this data in our systems until the legal retention periods have expired.

SSL Encryption

To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption techniques (such as SSL) over HTTPS.

Comment Function

When users leave comments on our website, the time they were created and the username previously chosen by the website visitor are stored in addition to these details. This is for our security, as we can be held liable for illegal content on our website, even if it was created by users.

Newsletter

Based on your explicit consent, we will send you our newsletter or comparable information regularly via email to your specified email address. Providing your email address is sufficient to receive the newsletter. When registering for 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 conditions). For a valid registration, we need a valid email address. To verify that a registration is actually made by the owner of an email address, we use the „double opt-in“ procedure. This involves logging the request for the newsletter, the sending of a confirmation email, and the receipt of the requested reply. No further data is collected. The data will only be used for the newsletter and not disclosed to third parties. You can revoke your consent to the storage of your personal data and its use for the newsletter at any time. Each newsletter contains a corresponding link. You can also unsubscribe at any time directly on this website or inform us of your request via the contact option provided at the end of this privacy notice.

Contact Form

If you contact us by email or contact form with any inquiries, you voluntarily consent to us contacting you for this purpose. A valid email address is required for this. This serves to allocate the request and subsequently answer it. Providing further data is optional. The data you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing the request and for possible follow-up questions. After the request you made is completed, personal data will be automatically deleted.

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (hereinafter: Google). Google Analytics uses so-called „cookies“, which are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Due to the activation of IP anonymization on these websites, your IP address will, however, be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the USA and truncated 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 activities, and to provide the website operator with further services related to website and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google. The purpose of the data processing is to evaluate the use of the website and to compile reports on activities on the website. Further associated services are then to be provided based on the use of the website and the internet. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of the website operator. You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, please note that in this case, you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: Browser Add On to deactivate Google Analytics.

Use of Script Libraries (Google Webfonts)

To display our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries on this website, such as Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google Webfonts are transferred to your browser’s cache to avoid multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Webfonts or prevents access, content is displayed in a standard font. Calling script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library operator. It is theoretically possible – currently unclear if and for what purposes – that operators of corresponding libraries collect data. You can find the privacy policy of the library operator Google here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Embedded YouTube Videos

We embed YouTube videos on some of our websites. The operator of the corresponding plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube servers is established. YouTube is informed which pages you are visiting. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your surfing behavior to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand. When a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior. Anyone who has disabled the storage of cookies for the Google ad program will also not have to expect such cookies when watching YouTube videos. However, YouTube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in the browser. Further information on data protection at „YouTube“ can be found in the provider’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/

Google AdWords

Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you arrived at our website via an ad placed by Google, Google Adwords will place a cookie on your computer. The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. The customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can refuse the setting of a cookie required for this – for example, via a browser setting that generally disables the automatic setting of cookies or sets your browser to block cookies from the domain „googleleadservices.com“. Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not want measurement data to be recorded. If you have deleted all your cookies in the browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.

Use of Google Remarketing

This website uses the remarketing function of Google Inc. The purpose of this function is to present interest-based advertisements to website visitors within the Google advertising network. A „cookie“ is stored in the browser of the website visitor, which makes it possible to recognize the visitor when they visit websites that belong to Google’s advertising network. On these sites, visitors can be presented with advertisements that relate to content that the visitor previously accessed on websites that use Google’s remarketing function. According to Google, no personal data is collected in this process. If you still do not wish to use Google’s remarketing function, you can generally deactivate it by setting the corresponding settings at http://www.google.com/settings/ads. Alternatively, you can disable the use of cookies for interest-based advertising via the Network Advertising Initiative by following the instructions at http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.

Use of Facebook Remarketing

We use the remarketing function „Custom Audiences“ from Facebook Inc. (1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA; „Facebook“) on our website. This function is used to target visitors of the website with interest-based advertisements within the Facebook social network. The Facebook remarketing tag has been implemented on the website for this purpose. This tag establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers when visiting the website. This informs the Facebook server which of our pages you have visited. Facebook assigns this information to your personal Facebook user account. When you visit the Facebook social network, you will then be shown personalized, interest-based Facebook ads. Processing is based on Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR from the legitimate interest in the above-mentioned purpose. You have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to this processing of personal data concerning you based on Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. To do this, you can deactivate the „Custom Audiences“ remarketing function here. For more information on the collection and use of data by Facebook, your rights in this regard, and options for protecting your privacy, please see Facebook’s privacy policy at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

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