• You have given your express consent to do so,

Collection of General Information when Visiting Our Website

When you access our website, general information is automatically collected by means of a cookie. This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your internet service provider, and similar. This is exclusively information that does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person.

This information is technically necessary to correctly deliver content from websites requested by you and is mandatory when using the internet. It is processed in particular for the following purposes:

• Ensuring a smooth connection setup of the website,
• Ensuring a smooth use of our website,
• Evaluation of system security and stability, and
• For other administrative purposes.

The processing of your personal data is based on our legitimate interest for the aforementioned purposes of data collection. We do not use your data to draw conclusions about your person. The recipients of the data are only the responsible body and, if applicable, processors.

Anonymous information of this kind may be statistically evaluated by us to optimize our internet presence and the underlying technology.

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, and your connection to the internet.

Cookies cannot be used to start programs or transfer viruses to a computer. Based on the information contained in cookies, we can make navigation easier for you and enable the correct display of our websites.

Under no circumstances will the data collected by us be passed on to third parties or a link to personal data be established without your consent.

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

Registration on our Website

When registering for the use of our personalized services, some personal data is collected, such as name, address, contact and communication data such as telephone number and email address. If you are registered with us, you can access content and services that we only offer to registered users. Registered users also have the option to change or delete the data provided during registration at any time if required. Of course, we will also provide you with information about the personal data stored about you by us at any time. We will gladly correct or delete it at your request, as long as no legal retention obligations conflict with this. To contact us in this regard, please use the contact details provided at the end of this privacy policy.

SSL encryption

To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use encryption procedures (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS that correspond to the current state of technology.

Newsletter

Based on your expressly given consent, we will regularly send you our newsletter or comparable information by e-mail to your specified e-mail address.

Your e-mail address is sufficient for receiving the newsletter. When you register for our newsletter, the data you provide will be used exclusively for this purpose. Subscribers may also be informed by e-mail about circumstances relevant to the service or registration (e.g. changes to the newsletter offer or technical circumstances).

For an effective registration, we need a valid e-mail address. To verify that a registration is actually made by the owner of an e-mail address, we use the "double opt-in" procedure. For this purpose, we log the order of the newsletter, the dispatch of a confirmation e-mail and the receipt of the requested answer. Further data is not collected. The data will be used exclusively for sending the newsletter and will not be passed on to third parties.

You can revoke your consent to the storage of your personal data and its use for newsletter dispatch at any time. A corresponding link can be found in every newsletter. In addition, you can unsubscribe at any time directly on this website or inform us of your corresponding wish via the contact option provided at the end of this data protection notice.

Contact form

If you contact us with questions of any kind by e-mail or contact form, you give us your voluntary consent for the purpose of making contact. For this, the provision of a valid e-mail address is required. This serves to assign the inquiry and subsequently answer it. The provision of further data is optional. The information you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing the inquiry and for possible follow-up questions. After your inquiry has been dealt with, personal data will be automatically deleted.

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 will be displayed in a standard font.

Calling up script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible – although currently unclear whether and, if so, for what purposes – that operators of corresponding libraries collect data.

The data protection policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Use of Google Maps

This website uses Google Maps API to display geographical information visually. When using Google Maps, Google also collects, processes, and uses data about the use of map functions by visitors. More detailed information about data processing by Google can be found in the Google privacy policy. There you can also change your personal data protection settings in the data protection center.

Detailed instructions on managing your own data in connection with Google products can be found here.

Google AdWords

Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you have reached our website via an advertisement placed by Google, Google Adwords will set a cookie on your computer. The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies expire 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 can therefore not 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. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that allows users to 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, by means of a browser setting that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies or by setting your browser to block cookies from the "googleleadservices.com" domain.

Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not wish to record measurement data. If you have deleted all your cookies in the browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.

Use of Google Analytics

Type and purpose of processing:

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA (hereinafter: "Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", i.e. text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. 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. However, 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 use to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

The purposes of data processing are the evaluation of the use of the website and the compilation of reports on activities on the website. Further related services are then to be provided based on the use of the website and the internet.

Legal basis:

The data is processed based on the user's consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).

Recipient:

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

Storage duration:

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for our recording purposes.

Third country transfer:

Google processes your data in the USA and has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework. In addition, we have concluded standard data protection clauses with Google for the use of Google Analytics.

Provision prescribed or required:

The provision of your personal data is voluntary, solely based on your consent. If you prevent access, this may lead to functional restrictions on the website.

Revocation of consent:

You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out 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 plug-in available under the following link: Browser Add-on for deactivating Google Analytics.

In addition or as an alternative to the browser add-on, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our pages by clicking this link: Set Google Analytics Opt-Out Cookie. An opt-out cookie will be installed on your device. This will prevent future collection of data by Google Analytics for this website and for this browser as long as the cookie remains installed in your browser.

Profiling:

With the help of the tracking tool Google Analytics, the behavior of website visitors can be evaluated and interests analyzed. For this purpose, we create a pseudonymous user profile.

Changes to our Data Protection Regulations

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 renewed visit.
