Collection of General Information When Visiting Our Website

Type and Purpose of Processing:
When you access our website – without registering or providing other information – general information is automatically collected. This information (server log files) includes your web browser type, operating system, domain name of your internet service provider, IP address and similar data.

This information is processed for the following purposes:

  • Ensuring a smooth connection to the website,
  • Ensuring smooth use of our website,
  • Evaluation of system security and stability, and
  • Other administrative purposes.

We do not use this data to draw conclusions about your identity. We may statistically evaluate this kind of information to optimize our website and the underlying technology.

Legal Basis:
Processing is carried out according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR based on our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.

Recipients:
The recipients of the data may be technical service providers who act as processors for the operation and maintenance of our website.

Storage Duration:
Data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected. For data required to operate the website, this is generally when the session ends.

Provision Mandatory or Required:
The provision of the aforementioned personal data is not legally or contractually required. However, without the IP address, the service and functionality of the website cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, objection is excluded.

Contact Form

Type and Purpose of Processing:
The data you enter is stored for the purpose of personal communication with you. A valid email address and your name are required to assign your request and respond to it. Providing additional data is optional.

Legal Basis:
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is based on a legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

By providing the contact form, we want to make it easy for you to get in touch with us. Your details will be stored for processing the request and possible follow-up questions.

If you contact us to request an offer, the data entered will be processed to carry out pre-contractual measures (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).

Recipients:
Recipients of the data may be processors.

Storage Duration:
Data will be deleted no later than 6 months after the request is processed. If a contractual relationship arises, we are subject to the statutory retention periods under the German Commercial Code (HGB) and delete the data after these periods.

Provision Mandatory or Required:
Providing your personal data is voluntary. However, we can only process your request if you provide your name, email address, and reason for inquiry.

Use of Google Analytics

Type and Purpose of Processing:
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer to help analyze how you use the site. The information generated by the cookie is usually transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the USA.

Due to the activation of IP anonymization on this website, your IP address will be truncated within the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

Google will use this information on behalf of the website operator to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide further services related to website and internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Legal Basis:
The data is processed based on the user’s consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

Recipients:
The recipient of the data is Google as a processor. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google for this purpose.

Storage Duration:
Data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer needed for our recording purposes.

Third Country Transfer:
Google processes your data in the USA and is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield:
https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework

Provision Mandatory or Required:
Providing your personal data is voluntary, based solely on your consent. If you prevent access, some functionality on the website may be limited.

Revocation of Consent:
You can prevent cookies from being stored by adjusting your browser settings. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google as well as the processing of this data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at:
Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on

Alternatively, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our website by clicking this link. An opt-out cookie will be set on your device. This will prevent data collection by Google Analytics on this website and in this browser in the future as long as the cookie remains installed.

Profiling:
The Google Analytics tracking tool allows the behavior of website visitors to be evaluated and their interests analyzed. For this purpose, we create a pseudonymous user profile.

Use of Script Libraries (Google Web Fonts)

Type and Purpose of Processing:
To display our content correctly and in a visually appealing manner across all browsers, we use “Google Web Fonts” by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) for font display.

You can find Google’s privacy policy here:
https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Legal Basis:
The legal basis for the integration of Google Web Fonts and the associated data transfer to Google is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

Recipients:
Accessing script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library operator. It is theoretically possible – though currently unclear for what purpose – that Google collects data in this process.

Storage Duration:
We do not collect any personal data through the integration of Google Web Fonts.

Further information on Google Web Fonts is available at:
https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq
and in Google’s privacy policy:
https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Third Country Transfer:
Google processes your data in the USA and is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield:
https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework

Provision Mandatory or Required:
Providing personal data is neither legally nor contractually required. However, proper display of website content may not be possible without it.

Revocation of Consent:
JavaScript is regularly used to display content. You can therefore object to data processing by disabling JavaScript execution in your browser or by installing a JavaScript blocker. Please note that doing so may result in functional restrictions on the website.

SSL Encryption

To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use the latest encryption methods (such as SSL) via HTTPS.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to adapt this privacy policy to ensure 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 apply on your next visit.
