§ 3 Access Data (Server Log Files) When you access our website, we automatically collect access data transmitted to us by your browser and store it in so-called server log files. This includes the following points:

• Browser type and browser version of your PC

As a rule, it is not possible for us, nor is it our intention, to assign this data to a specific person. This data is processed in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR in order to safeguard our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.

§ 4 Cookies We use so-called cookies to make visiting our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Cookies are not capable of executing programs or transmitting viruses to your computer system.

Necessary cookies, which are required for electronic communication or the provision of requested functions, are stored in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest in storing them serves the technically flawless and optimized provision of our services. Other cookies (e.g., for analyzing your surfing behavior) are treated separately in this privacy policy.

We mainly use so-called “session cookies”, which are automatically deleted after your visit. In addition, we use cookies that remain stored on your device until you remove them yourself. These enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit.

The data transmitted in the contact form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent granted pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can withdraw this consent at any time without giving reasons. An informal notification by email to us is sufficient for the withdrawal. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

The protection of your personal data is important to us. Therefore, we generally do not pass your data on to third parties unless there is a legal obligation to do so or you have given us your explicit consent.

§ 7 Encryption (SSL/TLS) Our website uses SSL or TLS encryption to ensure security and to protect the transmission of confidential content. This applies in particular to inquiries that you, as a page visitor, send to us as the website operator. An encrypted connection can be recognized by the “https://” in the address bar of your browser and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.

The activation of SSL or TLS encryption ensures that the data you send to us cannot be read by unauthorized third parties.

§ 8 Storage Period The personal data you transmit to us via our website will only be stored for the duration necessary to achieve the respective purpose of data processing. However, in compliance with commercial and tax law retention obligations, the storage of certain data may last up to 10 years.

§ 9 Your Data Protection Rights As a data subject of the data processing, you have the following rights against the controller regarding your personal data, in accordance with legal provisions:

A. Right of Withdrawal Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. If the processing of your data is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out based on your consent until the withdrawal remains unaffected. The storage of data for billing and accounting purposes is not affected by a withdrawal.

B. Right of Access Pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR, you have the right to request confirmation from us as to whether we process your personal data. If this is the case, you have a right to access this data, including the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the data have been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period or the criteria for determining it, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection to processing, lodgement of a complaint with a supervisory authority, the origin of the data if not collected from you, the existence of automated decision-making including profiling and, where applicable, meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing for you, and your right to be informed about the safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR that exist when transferring your data to third countries.

C. Right to Rectification You have the right to demand from us at any time, pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR, the correction of incorrect personal data concerning you and/or the completion of your incomplete data.

D. Right to Erasure You have the right to request the erasure of your personal data pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR if one of the following reasons applies: a. Your personal data are no longer required for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed. b. You withdraw your consent on which the processing was legitimized pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing. c. You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (2) GDPR. d. The personal data have been unlawfully processed. e. The personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which we are subject. f. The personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Art. 8 (1) GDPR.

Under the following circumstances, this right may be restricted if the processing is essential: a. for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information; b. for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller; c. for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9 (2) (h) and (i) and Art. 9 (3) GDPR; d. for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 (1) GDPR in so far as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or e.for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If we have made your personal data public and are obliged to erase it in accordance with the preceding provisions, we will take reasonable steps, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform the controllers processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the erasure of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data.

E. Right to Restriction of Processing Pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR, you have the right to request the restriction of processing (blocking) of your personal data. To exercise this right, you can contact us at any time. The contact details can be found in the legal notice. A restriction of processing can be requested in the following cases: a. If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. b. If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure. c. If we no longer need your personal data, but you require them to exercise, defend or establish legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of erasure. d. If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests against ours must be carried out. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

Following a restriction of the processing of your personal data, these data may fundamentally only be processed with your consent. Exceptions apply to certain, legally defined cases, such as for the establishment of legal claims or for the protection of public interests.

F. Right to Information If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing of your personal data, we are obliged pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR to inform all recipients to whom the data have been disclosed about this. This does not apply only if the notification proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Upon your request, we will inform you about the recipients of your data.

G. Protection Against Automated Decisions (Profiling) Pursuant to Art. 22 GDPR, you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing—including profiling—which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

This does not apply if the decision: a. is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and us, b.is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or c. is based on your explicit consent.

However, decisions in the cases referred to in (a) to (c) shall not be based on special categories of personal data referred to in Art. 9 (1) GDPR, unless Art. 9 (2) (a) or (g) applies and suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms andlegitimate interests are in place.

In the cases referred to in (a) and (c), we take reasonable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests. This includes at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your own point of view and to contest the decision.

H. Right to Data Portability In the event that your personal data is processed based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR and is carried out by automated means, you have the right under Art. 20 GDPR to receive your data provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transmit those data to another controller or to demand transmission by us to another controller, provided this is technically feasible.

I. Right to Object If we process your personal data based on a balancing of interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to this processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective applicable legal basis for processing can be found in this privacy policy. In the event of an objection, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR).

In the event that your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. In the event of an objection, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Art. 21 (2) GDPR).

In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR In the event of infringements of the provisions of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority. The complaint may be lodged in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint under this provision is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
