We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., communication by email) can have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Information about the responsible party

The responsible party for data processing on this website is:

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email to us is sufficient for revoking consent. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority

In the event of breaches of data protection law, the data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection issues is the data protection officer of the federal state in which our company is based.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Encrypted payment transactions on this website

If, after the conclusion of a paid contract, there is an obligation to provide us with your payment details (e.g., account number for direct debit authorization), this data is required for payment processing.

Payment transactions using common payment methods (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are made exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

With encrypted communication, your payment data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, blocking, deletion

In accordance with applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, the right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data.

The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited promotional information, such as spam emails.

3. Data collection on our website

Cookies

Our website uses cookies in some areas. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain any viruses. They serve to make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies." They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit.

You can set your browser to notify you about the placement of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, reject the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Cookies that are necessary for the electronic communication process or for the provision of certain functions you request (e.g., shopping cart functionality) are stored based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If other cookies (such as cookies used for analyzing your browsing behavior) are stored, they will be addressed separately in this privacy policy.

Server log files

The provider of the website automatically collects and stores information in server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• Browser type and browser version

• Operating system used

• Referrer URL

• Hostname of the accessing computer

• Time of the server request

• IP address

These data will not be merged with other data sources.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, which allows the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact form

If you submit inquiries to us via the contact form, your information from the inquiry form, including the contact details provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this information without your consent.

The processing of the data entered into the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal notification by email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - especially retention periods - remain unaffected.

Storage of IP address

Our comment function stores the IP addresses of users who post comments. Since we do not check comments on our site before they are activated, we need this data to be able to take action against the author in the event of legal violations such as insults or propaganda.

4. Social Media

Sharing Content via Plugins (Facebook, Google+1, Twitter & Co.)

The content on our pages can be shared on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google+ in compliance with data protection regulations. This website uses the eRecht24 Safe Sharing Tool for this purpose. This tool establishes direct contact between the networks and users only when the user actively clicks on one of these buttons.

This tool does not automatically transfer user data to the operators of these platforms. If the user is logged into one of the social networks, an information window appears when using the social buttons of Facebook, Google+1, Twitter & Co., in which the user can confirm the text before submitting.

5. Analysis Tools and Advertising

Google Analytics

This website uses features of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your website usage. 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.

The storage of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.

IP Anonymization

We have activated the IP anonymization feature on this website. This means that 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 before it is transmitted to the USA. 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 activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google.

Browser Plugin

You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all the features of this website to their full extent. Furthermore, you can prevent Google from collecting and processing the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plugin available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

Objection to Data Collection

You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent your data from being collected on future visits to this website: Disable Google Analytics.

For more information on how Google Analytics handles user data, please refer to Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

Data Processing Agreement

We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

Demographic Features in Google Analytics

This website uses the "demographic features" function of Google Analytics. This allows reports to be generated containing statements about the age, gender, and interests of site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising by Google and visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot be attributed to any specific individual. You can disable this feature at any time by adjusting the ad settings in your Google account or by using the opt-out option described above ("Objection to Data Collection").

Google AdSense

This website uses Google AdSense, a service for integrating advertisements provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google AdSense uses so-called "cookies," which are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your website usage. Google AdSense also uses web beacons (invisible graphics). Through these web beacons, information such as visitor traffic on these pages can be evaluated.

The information generated by cookies and web beacons about the use of this website (including your IP address) and the delivery of advertising formats is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. This information may be transferred by Google to Google's contractual partners. However, Google will not merge your IP address with other data stored by you.

The storage of AdSense cookies is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.

You can prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly. However, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all the features of this website to their full extent. By using this website, you agree to the processing of the data collected about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes described above.

Google Analytics Remarketing

Our websites use the features of Google Analytics Remarketing in conjunction with the cross-device capabilities of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

This feature allows the advertising target groups created with Google Analytics Remarketing to be linked with the cross-device capabilities of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. This way, interest-based, personalized advertising messages that have been customized based on your previous usage and browsing behavior on one device (e.g., mobile phone) can also be displayed on another of your devices (e.g., tablet or PC).

If you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browser history to your Google Account for this purpose. This allows the same personalized advertising messages to be displayed on every device you log into with your Google Account.

To support this feature, Google Analytics captures Google-authenticated user IDs that are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data in order to define and create cross-device ad targeting.

You can permanently opt out of cross-device remarketing/targeting by disabling personalized advertising in your Google Account. Follow this link to do so: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.

The summary of the data collected in your Google Account is based solely on your consent, which you can give or withdraw from Google (Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). For data collection processes that are not merged into your Google Account (for example, if you do not have a Google Account or have objected to the merge), the collection of data is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing anonymous website visitors for advertising purposes.

For more information and Google's privacy policy, please visit: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking

This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).

As part of Google AdWords, we use a feature called Conversion Tracking. When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is set. Cookies are small text files that are placed on the user's computer by the internet browser. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked across AdWords customers' websites. The information obtained through the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. The customers are provided with 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 information that personally identifies users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can opt out of this use by easily disabling the Google Conversion Tracking cookie through your internet browser's user settings. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The storage of "conversion cookies" is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both the website offering and advertising.

For more information on Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking, please refer to Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

You can configure your browser to notify you about the use of cookies and to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, refuse the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and enable the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Google reCAPTCHA

We use "Google reCAPTCHA" (hereinafter "reCAPTCHA") on our websites. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google").

reCAPTCHA is used to check whether data entry on our websites (e.g., in a contact form) is done by a human or by an automated program. For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g., IP address, duration of the website visitor's stay on the website, or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.

The reCAPTCHA analysis runs entirely in the background. Website visitors are not notified that an analysis is taking place.

Data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offerings against abusive automated spying and spam.

For more information on Google reCAPTCHA and Google's privacy policy, please refer to the following links: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/android.html.

Facebook Pixel

Our website uses the visitor action pixel from Facebook, Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"), for conversion measurement.

This allows tracking of the behavior of website visitors after they have been redirected to the website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This enables the evaluation of the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes and optimization of future advertising campaigns.

The data collected is anonymous to us as the operator of this website, and we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook, which allows a connection to the respective user profile and Facebook to use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook Data Policy. As a result, Facebook can display ads on Facebook pages and outside of Facebook. As the website operator, we have no influence on this use of the data.

For further information on the protection of your privacy, please refer to Facebook's privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

You can also disable the "Custom Audiences" remarketing function in the ad settings section at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen if you are logged into Facebook.

If you do not have a Facebook account, you can disable Facebook's usage-based advertising on the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/.
