Basic Information on Data Processing

We collect, process, and use personal data of users only in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations. This means that the data of users is only used if there is a legal permission or consent is present.
It is expressly pointed out that any data transmission on the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) can have security gaps. A complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible. However, we take organizational, contractual, and technical security measures according to the state of the art to ensure that the provisions of data protection laws are complied with and to protect the data we manage against accidental or intentional manipulations, loss, destruction, or access by unauthorized persons.

Collection, Processing, and Use of Personal Data

The personal data of users is used for the provision of our website and the services, service, and user benefits associated with it.
We forward the data to third parties if this is done on the basis of consent or is legally permitted to fulfill our contractual obligations to the users.
When contacting us, the information is stored for the purpose of processing the request and in case follow-up questions arise.
The personal data will be deleted if they are no longer required or if there are no legal retention obligations that oppose the deletion.

Contact Form

If you contact us by email or contact form, the information you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing the request and for possible follow-up questions.

Collection of Access Data

We collect data about every access to the server on which this offer is located (so-called server log files). The access data includes the name of the accessed website, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful retrieval, browser type and version, the user’s operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address, and the requesting provider.
We use the log data without assignment to the person of the user or other profiling according to the legal provisions only for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operation, security, and optimization of the offer. However, we reserve the right to check the log data retrospectively if there is a justified suspicion of unlawful use based on concrete indications.

Cookies

Like many other websites, we also use so-called “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 about your computer, and your connection to the Internet.

Cookies cannot be used to start programs or transmit viruses to a computer. Based on the information contained in cookies, we can facilitate your navigation and enable the correct display of our websites.
In no case will the data we collect be passed on to third parties or linked to personal data without your consent.

Of course, you can also view our website without cookies. Internet browsers are regularly set to accept cookies. You can deactivate the use of cookies at any time via the settings of your browser. Please use the help functions of your Internet browser to find out how to change these settings. Please note that individual functions of our website may not work if you have deactivated the use of cookies.

You can manage many online ad cookies from companies via the US site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices/.

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies,” which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. 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. Due to the activation of IP anonymization on these websites, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened 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 and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google. You can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser software; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link:

Additionally or as an alternative to the browser add-on, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our pages by clicking this link:

An opt-out cookie will be installed on your device. This will prevent the collection by Google Analytics for this website and for this browser in the future, as long as the cookie remains installed in your browser.

Use of Web Fonts

External fonts, Google Fonts, are used on these Internet pages. Google Fonts is a service of Google Inc. (“Google”). The integration of these web fonts is done by a server call, usually a Google server in the USA. This transmits to the server which of our Internet pages you have visited. The IP address of the browser of the visitor’s terminal device is also stored by Google. More information can be found in Google’s privacy policy, which you can access here:

Integration of Third-Party Services and Content

It may happen that third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, map material from Google Maps, RSS feeds, or graphics from other websites, is integrated into our website. This always requires that the providers of this content perceive your IP address, as they could not send the content to your browser without the IP address. The IP address is therefore required for the presentation of this content. We strive to use only such content whose respective providers use the IP address solely for the delivery of the content.

Within the website, YouTube videos from the third-party provider Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, are used in particular. The privacy policy of Google, Inc. can be found at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/, opt-out options for the use of data by Google at: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/. The YouTube videos are used, if possible, in enhanced privacy mode, whereby data of the users is only transmitted to YouTube when the videos are called up.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to occasionally adapt this privacy policy so that it always complies with the 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 renewed visit.
