Collection and Processing of Personal Information

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. A natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, identification number, location data, online identifier, or to one or more specific characteristics that express the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.

The processing of personal data may be carried out with or without the aid of data processing systems and includes the following activities: collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.

We process your personal information that you provide to us via this website only for correspondence with you and solely for the purpose for which you provided the data.

Each time you access our website, we automatically and temporarily collect and store information that your browser transmits during your use of our website and each time a file is retrieved in a so-called log file. Before storage, each data record is anonymized by modifying the IP address. The following data is stored for each access/retrieval:

  • Anonymized IP address
  • Date and time of access
  • Accessed page / name of the retrieved file
  • Web browser and requesting domain
  • Amount of data transmitted
  • Notification whether the access was successful

Processing is carried out pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data will not be transferred or used for any other purpose. However, we reserve the right to subsequently review the server log files if there are concrete indications of unlawful use.

Use and Disclosure of Personal Information

Your personal data (e.g., surname, first name, telephone number, address, email address) that you provide to us via this website, for example through our contact form, will only be processed for correspondence with you, to process your request, or for the purpose for which you provided the data.

No other evaluation of the data will take place, except for statistical purposes and generally in anonymized form.

If we engage service providers to carry out tasks on our behalf, the contractual relationships are governed in writing in accordance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG new). This concerns the following categories of recipients: IT service providers to ensure security and confidentiality, transport service providers.

In addition, we may share anonymized data with partners for statistical analysis purposes. All such parties are prohibited from using your personal information unless it is used for the provision of our services.

Data Retention Period

Your personal data communicated to us via our website will only be stored until the purpose for which it was entrusted to us has been fulfilled and storage is necessary. Where commercial, tax, or administrative retention periods must be observed, the storage period for certain data may be up to 6 or 10 years.

Your Rights

As a data subject whose data we process, you are entitled to extensive rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation. You have the right to obtain information about your personal data processed by us, in particular regarding the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, and the planned storage period or the criteria used to determine that period.

If you no longer agree with the processing or storage of your personal data or if your data is incorrect, you have the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing. Upon your request or withdrawal, we will make the necessary corrections or arrange for the deletion or restriction of processing of your data, insofar as this is possible under applicable law.

Furthermore, if you have given your consent, you have the right to object to processing for the future at any time, the right to data portability, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Use of Cookies

To make visiting our website user-friendly and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages. Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your computer or mobile device by the websites you visit. This allows the website to recognize your device when you use the website and also when you return at a later time. This helps make the use of the pages easier and more personalized. When using cookies, we collect and process certain user information from you within the respective scope of the text files, such as browser and location data as well as IP address. Cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie. If you neither deactivate cookies nor use the opt-out option as described below, we assume that you accept the use of cookies.

Use of Script Libraries (Google Web Fonts)

In order to display the content of our website correctly and in a visually appealing manner across different browsers, we use script and font libraries such as Google Web Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google Web Fonts are transferred to your browser’s cache to avoid multiple loading. If your browser does not support Google Web Fonts or blocks access, content will be displayed in a standard font.

When script or font libraries are accessed, a connection to the operator of the library is automatically established. It is theoretically possible, although currently unclear whether and for what purposes, that the operator of such libraries also collects data.
