In principal, we collect and use personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website, our contents and our services. Collection and utilization of personal data regularly occurs only with the consent of the user. An exception applies to cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for reasons of fact and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing personal data, article 6, paragraph 1, lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. Article 6, paragraph 1, lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, article 6, paragraph, 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis. Article 6, paragraph 1, lit. d GDPR serves as a legal basis in the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person necessitate the processing of personal data. If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, then article 6, paragraph 1, lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
The personal data of the affected person will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage ceases to exist. In addition, storage may also occur if this storage is intended by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other guidelines to which the responsible authority is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data also occurs upon the expiration of a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.
We use state-of-the-art encryption procedures (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS to safeguard the security of your data during transmission.
Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling computer.
The following data are collected in this context:
These data are also stored in our system’s log files. The complete anonymization of the IP address does not lead to the storage of data which could facilitate their correlation with a specific user. Storage of these data does not occur together with other personal data of the user.
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is article 6, paragraph 1, lit. f GDPR.
The system temporarily stores the IP address because this storage is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user’s computer. To accomplish this delivery, the user’s IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
Storage in log files is undertaken to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data enable us to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our IT systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not occur in this context.
These purposes also involve our legitimate interest in the processing of data pursuant to Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f GDPR.
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer needed to accomplish the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of collecting the data in order to provide the website, this deletion occurs when the respective session is ended.
In the case of data stored in log files, this deletion occurs no later than 7 days after the date of initial storage. Storage beyond this date is possible.
The collection of data for provision of the website and the storage of data in log files are essential for the operation of the website. There is consequently no possibility for the user to object to it.
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in the Internet browser or by the Internet browser on the user’s computer system. When a user visits a website, a cookie can be stored on the user’s operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string of characters which enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is accessed again.

The following data are stored and transmitted in the cookies:
In addition to this, we also use cookies on our website which enable us to analyze the surfing behaviour of our users. These analytical cookies are used for the purpose of improving the quality of our website and its contents. Analytical cookies tell us how the website is used and enable us to continually optimize our services. You can find more information about this in the “Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager” section.
The user data collected in this way are pseudonymized by technical precautionary measures. It is therefore no longer possible to correlate the data to the specific users who accessed the site. The data are not stored together with other personal data of the users.
When users access our website, an information banner notifies the users about our use of cookies for analytical purposes and refers the users to this Data Protection Declaration. In this context, there is also an indication as to how the storage of cookies in the browser settings can be prevented.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies is article 6, paragraph 1, lit. f GDPR. The legal basis for the processing of personal data using technically necessary cookies is article 6, paragraph 1, lit. f GDPR. The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies for analytical purposes is article 6, paragraph 1, lit. a GDPR.
The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of websites for users. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For thesefunctions, it is necessary that the browser can also be recognized after a page change. We need cookies for the following applications:
The user data which are collected by technically necessary cookies are not used to create user profiles. In these purposes, our legitimate interest lies in the processing of personal data in accordance with article 6, paragraph 1, lit. f GDPR.
Cookies are stored on the user’s computer, which transmits them to our website. Therefore you, as the user, have full control over the use of cookies. You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your internet browser. Please use the help features of your internet browser to learn how you can change these settings. Previously stored cookies can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically.

Description and scope of data processing
We use the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform as a consent management tool as part of the analytics activities on our website.
The Usercentrics Consent Management Platform collects log file and consent data using JavaScript. This JavaScript enables us to inform users about their consent to certain tags on our website and to obtain, manage and document this consent.
We process the following data in this process:
1. (1) Consent data or data of consent (anonymized log data (Consent ID, Processor ID, Controller ID), Consent Status, Timestamp).
2. (2) Device data (e.g., shortened IP addresses (IP v4, IP v6), device information, timestamp)
3. (3) User data (e.g. eMail, ID, Browser information, SettingIDs, Changelog)
The ConsentID (contains the above data), the Consent status incl. timestamp are stored in the local memory of your browser and simultaneously on the cloud servers used. Further processing will only take place if you submit a request for information or revoke your consent. In this case, the relevant information is provided to the responsible party (FIELD M) in a compact data format in an easily readable text form for the purpose of data exchange (JSON file).
No user information is stored for the statistics of the use of the granted or not granted consent. Only the frequency and locations of clicks are stored.
Personal data is stored on a Google Cloud server located in the EU (Brussels, Frankfurt am Main).
Purpose of data processing
The purpose of the data processing is the analysis and management of the consents granted in order to comply with our obligation of a DSGVO-compliant consent management. The use of Usercentrics serves the purpose of proving granted and non-granted consents as well as their management.
The specific processing purposes of the personal data named in 5.1 are:
4. (1) Obtaining and providing the Consents.
5. (2) Providing evidence of which device you used to provide the consent and at what time
6. (3) Legitimization of access to the settings and documentation of changes.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the management of your consents for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest lies in the legally compliant documentation and verifiability of consents, the targeting of marketing measures based on the consent granted, and the optimization of consent rates.
Duration of storage
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required. The associated cookie has a duration of 60 days. The revocation document of a previously granted consent is stored for a period of three years. The retention is based on the one hand on our accountability pursuant to Art. 5 (2) DSGVO. This obligates us to comply with the processing of personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation. On the other hand, retention is based on the regular statute of limitations pursuant to Section 195 of the German Civil Code (BGB) of three years. This limitation period begins at the end of the year in which the claim arose (§ 199 BGB). Consequently, the three-year limitation period begins at the end of 31.12. and ends three years later on 31.12., 24.00 hours.
Possibility of objection and removal
The function can be switched on and off in our "Privacy settings" by checking the checkbox.
Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, web analysis services of Google Inc, (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter “Google”), are used on this website. The use includes the “Universal Analytics” mode of operation. This makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across several devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus to analyze the activities of a user across all devices. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, i.e. text files which are placed on your computer to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website will generally be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to 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, where it will be shortened. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be combined with other data from Google. 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 relating to website activity and Internet usage to the website operator. Our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is § 15, paragraph 3 TMG or article 6, paragraph 1, lit. f GDPR. Sessions and campaigns are terminated after a certain period of time. By default, sessions are terminated after thirty minutes without activity and campaigns are ended after six months. The time limit for campaigns can be a maximum of two years. You can find further information on terms of use and data protection at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html or https://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/.
You may prevent the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; 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 Google from collecting the data which are generated by the cookie and are related to your use of the website (including your IP address), and you can prevent Google from processing these data, by downloading and installing the following browser add-on: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
This website uses Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"), which can be used to analyze the use of websites.
When using Google Analytics 4, so-called "cookies" are used as standard. Cookies are text files that are stored on your terminal device and enable an analysis of your use of a website. The information collected by cookies about your use of the website (including the IP address transmitted by your terminal device, shortened by the last digits, see below) is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored and processed there. This may also result in the transmission of information to the servers of Google LLC, a company based in the USA, where the information is further processed.
When using Google Analytics 4, the IP address transmitted by your terminal device when you use the website is always collected and processed by default and automatically only in an anonymized manner, so that a direct personal reference of the collected information is excluded. This automatic anonymization is carried out by shortening the IP address transmitted by your terminal device by Google within member states of the European Union (EU) or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA) by the last digits.
On our behalf, Google uses this and other information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports (reports) on your website activities or your usage behavior and to provide us with other services related to your website usage and internet usage. In this context, the IP address transmitted and shortened by your terminal device within the scope of Google Analytics 4 will not be merged with other data from Google. The data collected in the context of the use of Google Analytics 4 will be retained for 2 months and then deleted.
Google Analytics 4 also enables the creation of statistics with statements about age, gender and interests of website users on the basis of an evaluation of interest-based advertising and with the involvement of third-party information via a special function, the so-called "demographic characteristics". This makes it possible to determine and distinguish between groups of website users for the purpose of targeting marketing measures. However, data collected via the "demographic characteristics" cannot be assigned to a specific person and thus not to you personally. This data collected via the "demographic characteristics" function is retained for two months and then deleted.
All processing described above, in particular the setting of Google Analytics cookies for the storage and reading of information on the terminal device used by you to use the website, will only take place if you have given us your express consent for this in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a DSGVO. Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 will not be used during your use of the website. You can revoke your consent once given at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, please deactivate this service via the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.
We have concluded a so-called order processing agreement with Google for our use of Google Analytics 4, by which Google is obliged to protect the data of our website users and not to pass it on to third parties.
To ensure compliance with the European level of data protection, even in the event of any transfer of data from the EU or EEA to the USA and possible further processing there, Google refers to the so-called standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which we have contractually agreed with Google.
Further legal information on Google Analytics 4, including a copy of the aforementioned standard contractual clauses, can be found at the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de

In order to present our contents correctly and in a graphically attractive format across all browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries such as Google Web Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) on this website. Accessing script libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library’s operator. In this context, it is possible that the operators of such libraries might collect data. Google Web Fonts is a service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Web Fonts are transferred to the cache of your browser to avoid multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Web Fonts or prevents access to them, contents will be displayed in a standard font. These web fonts are integrated via a server call, usually to a Google server in the USA. This call will tell the server which of our web pages you have visited. Google also stores the IP address of the browser of the terminal device of the visitor to these Internet sites.

If you do not wish to be analysed by CleverReach, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a link for this purpose in every newsletter message. You can also unsubscribe from the newsletter directly on the website.
The data you provide us with for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.
After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with the legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

Conclusion of a contract for order processing
We have concluded an order processing contract with the provider of CleverReach and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using CleverReach.
On our website, we offer you the option of using so-called “social media buttons”. To protect your data, we use the “Shariff” solution during implementation. This means that these buttons on the website are integrated only as a graphic, which contains a link to the corresponding website of the button’s provider. When you click on the graphic, you will accordingly be forwarded to the services of the respective provider. Only then will your data be sent to the respective providers. If you do not click on the graphic, there will be no exchange of data between you and the providers of the social media buttons. You can find information about the collection and use of your data in the social networks by consulting the terms of use of the respective providers. You can find more information about the Shariff solution here: https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html
We have included the social media buttons of the following companies on our website:
Our website uses social media plugins or widgets from Walls.io. IP-address and cookie data are transmitted to Walls.io when these plugins are called. Walls.io is operated by “Die Socialisten” Social Software Development GmbH in Vienna, Austria.
If your personal data are processed, you are the data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you are entitled to the following rights vis-à-vis the controller:
You can request confirmation from the controller (i.e. the data controller) as to whether personal data relating to you will be processed by us. In the event of such processing, you may request the following information from the controller:
You have the right to request information as to whether the personal data concerning you will be transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate guarantees in connection with the transfer pursuant to article 46 GDPR.
If the personal data processed concerning you are inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to have your personal data corrected and/or completed by the controller (i.e. the data controller), who must immediately carry out the requested rectification.
Under the following conditions, you can demand the restriction of the processing of the personal data that apply to you:
If the processing of personal data that apply to you has been restricted, these data – with the exception of their storage – may only be used with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or one of its member states.
If the restriction of the processing according to the abovementioned conditions is curtailed, you will be notified by the controller or authority before the restriction is lifted.
If one of the following reasons exists, then you can demand that the controller or authority immediately delete the personal data which apply to you and the controller or authority is obliged to delete these data without delay:
If the controller or authority has made public personal data that apply to you, and if the controller or authority is obliged to delete these data pursuant to Art. 17 Abs. 1 GDPR, then the controller or authority shall undertake appropriate activities, including activities of a technical nature, taking into consideration the available technology and the cost of implementation, to notify the controllers or authorities responsible for processing the personal data, that you, as the affected person, have demanded the deletion of all links to these personal data or to copies or replications of these personal data.
The right to deletion does not exist if the processing is necessary:
If you have exercised the right to rectification, deletion or restriction vis-à-vis the controller or authority, this person or authority is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data that apply to you have been disclosed about this rectification or deletion of the data and about the restriction in the data’s processing, unless such notification proves to be impossible or would involve a disproportionately great effort.
You have the right to demand that the controller or authority inform you about these recipients.
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the responsible person in a structured, common and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to communicate these data to another controller (i.e. another data controller) without being hindered by the data controller to whom the personal data was first made available, provided that:
In exercising this right, you also have the right to request that the personal data concerning you be transferred directly from one controller to another responsible individual, insofar as this is technically feasible. Freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this. The right to data transfer does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
You have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of your personal data on the basis of article 6, paragraph 1, lit. e or f GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The responsible individual will no longer process the personal data relating to you unless he or she can prove compelling reasons for processing which are worthy of protection and which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the process serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. If the personal data concerning you are processed for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of the personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected with such direct advertising. If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes. You have the option of exercising your right of objection in relation to the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, by means of automated procedures in which technical specifications are used.
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of your consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until you revoke it.
You have the right not to be subject to any decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that has any legal effect on you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision:
However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to article 9, paragraph 1 GDPR, unless article 9, paragraph 2, lit. a or g GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests. With regard to 1) and 3) above, the controller shall take reasonable measures to protect your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests, including at least the rights to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to state your own position and to challenge the decision.
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, especially to an authority in the member state in which you reside, in which you work, or which contains the location of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of the personal data that apply to you violates the GDPR.
The supervisory authority to which the complaint was submitted shall notify the complainant about the status and the results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.
