2.1 Scope of the processing of personal data
When you visit our website, we initially only collect and use the data referred to in section 3. Furthermore, we process the personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website as well as our content and services. Obtaining and processing of personal data of our users takes place normally only after consent of the user. An exception applies in those cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for actual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by statutory provisions.
2.2 Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a) of the EU General Protection Basic Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for processing personal data. Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as a legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This shall also apply to processing operations 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, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis. 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, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
2.3 Data erasure and storage duration
The personal data of the person concerned will be erased or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Storage may also take place if the European or national legislator has provided for this in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which the data controller is subject. The data shall also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless it is necessary for further storage of the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.
3.1 Description, purpose and scope of data processing
Each time you access our website, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.
The following data will be collected:
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the IP address of the user must remain stored for the duration of the session. The log files contain IP addresses or other data that allows an assignment to a user. This could be the case, for example, if the link to the website from which the user accesses the website or the link to the website to which the user switches contains personal data. The data is also stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user. The data is stored in log files in order to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimise the website and guarantee the security of our IT systems. The data is not evaluated for marketing purposes in this context.
3.2 Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
3.3 How long we store your data
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. If a collection of the data is required for the provision of the website, this occurs when the respective session has come to an end. If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.
3.4 Possibility of opposition and removal
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is mandatory for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user.
These websites use cookies. Cookies are text files which are stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.
Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which web pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the person concerned from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognised and identified via the unique cookie ID.
The use of cookies allows the users of this website to provide more user-friendly services, which would not be possible without the setting of cookies.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimised in the interests of the user. Cookies enable us, as already mentioned, to recognise the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, users of a website that uses cookies do not have to re-enter their access data each time they visits the website because this is taken over by the website and the cookie stored on the users' computer systems. Another example is the cookie of a shopping basket in the online shop. The online shop remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping basket via a cookie.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.
4.1 Description, purpose and scope of data processing
Our website uses cookies. When a user visits a website, a cookie may be stored on the user's operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic sequence of characters that enables a clear identification of the browser the next time the website is called. We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require that the calling browser can be identified even after a page change.
The following data is stored and transmitted in the cookies:
The user data collected by technically necessary cookies is not used to create user profiles.
4.2 Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
4.3 Duration of storage, possibility of objection and removal
Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted to our site by the user. Therefore, you as a user also 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. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it is possible that not all functions of the website can be used to the full extent.
5.1 Description, purpose and scope of data processing
Alternatively, you can contact us via the e-mail address provided. In this case, the personal data of the user transmitted with the e-mail will be stored. The data will not be passed on to third parties in this context. The data will be used exclusively for the processing of the conversation.
5.2 Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of the data is the existence of a declaration of consent of the user according to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. The legal basis for processing the data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If the objective of the e-mail contact is the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for processing the data is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
5.3 How long we store your data
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For the personal data from the input screen of the contact form and that sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation ends when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the facts in question have been conclusively clarified. The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.
5.4 Possibility of opposition and removal
The user has the possibility to revoke his/her consent to the processing of personal data at any time. If the user contacts us by e-mail, he/she can object to the storage of his/her personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued. The revocation can be formulated in writing or by mail to the appointed data protection officer. All personal data stored within the course of establishing contact is deleted in this case.
If personal data about you is processed, you are the "data subject" in the sense of GDPR and you are entitled to the following rights with regard to us as the data controller. You can exercise your rights by contacting our data protection officer or the staff of the service centre, stating your concern.
6.1 Right of access
Any person subject to the processing of personal data shall have the right at any time to obtain from the data controller, free of charge, information concerning the personal data relating to him/her which has been stored, and a copy of such data.
You can request confirmation from the data controller as to whether personal data relating to you will be processed by us.
6.2 Right to rectification
Any person subject to the processing of personal data has the right to rectification without delay of inaccurate personal data concerning him/her. Furthermore, and having regard to the purposes of the processing, the data subject has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data – including by means of a supplementary statement.
6.3 Right to restriction of processing
Any person subject to the processing of personal data has the right to request the data controller to restrict the processing if the conditions laid down in the legislation in Art. 18 (1) GDPR are met.
6.4 Right to erasure
Any person subject to the processing of personal data has the right to require the data controller to delete the personal data relating to him/her without delay if one of the reasons set out in Art. 17 (1) GDPR applies.
6.5 Right to data portability
Any person subject to the processing of personal data has the right to obtain personal data concerning him/her which has been provided by the data subject to a data controller in a structured, common and machine-readable format. That person also has the right to communicate this data to another data controller without being hindered by the data controller to whom the personal data has been provided, provided that the processing is based on the 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 the processing is carried out using automated procedures.
6.6 Right to object
Any person subject to the processing of personal data has the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to his/her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him/her carried out pursuant to Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The company will no longer process the personal data in the event of an objection unless we can prove compelling reasons for processing worthy of protection which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
If the company processes personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling in so far as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
6.7 Right to revoke declaration of consent under data protection law
Any person subject to the processing of personal data has the right to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent up to when the revocation was given.
6.8 Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you shall have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your residence, place of work or place of presumed infringement, if you consider that the processing of your personal data is in breach of the GDPR.
The data controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymisation function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analysis is the collection, collection and evaluation of data about the behaviour of visitors to websites. Among other things, a web analysis service collects data about which website a data subject came to a website from (so-called referrers), which subpages of the website were accessed or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. A web analysis is mainly used for the optimisation of a website and for the cost/benefit analysis of Internet advertising.
The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
The data controller uses the addition "_gat._anonymizeIp" for the web analysis via Google Analytics. This addition is used by Google to shorten and anonymise the IP address of the Internet connection of the data subject if our website is accessed from a member state of the European Union or from another state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyse the flows of visitors to our website. Google uses the data and information collected, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us showing the activities on our websites and to provide other services in connection with the use of our website.
Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting cookies, Google is able to analyse the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website which is operated by the data controller and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated is accessed, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which Google uses, among other things, to track the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently to enable commission statements to be prepared.
The cookie is used to store personal information, such as the access time, the location from which an access originated and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject. Each time the data subject visits our website, this personal data, including the IP address of the Internet connection used by the data subject, is transferred to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may share this personal information collected through the technical process with third parties.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as already explained above, at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.
Furthermore, it is possible for the data subject to object to and prevent the collection of data generated by Google Analytics and relating to the use of this website and the processing of this data by Google. For this purpose, the person concerned must download and install a browser add-on under the link. This browser add-on tells Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information about visits to websites is allowed to be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered by Google to be an objection. If the data subject's information technology system is later deleted, formatted or reinstalled, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on in order to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or by another person within his/her sphere of influence, the browser add-on can be reinstalled or reactivated.
Further information and Google's applicable privacy policy can be found at here and here.
Google Analytics is explained in more detail under this link.
This website uses so-called Web Fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required Web Fonts in order to display texts and fonts correctly.
The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to Google's servers. This gives Google knowledge that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online information. This represents a legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
If your browser does not support Web Fonts, a standard font will be used by your computer.
More information about Google Web Fonts can be found at FAQ and in Google's privacy policy.
