Privacy policy
The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (for example, name, address, or e-mail addresses) are collected on our pages, this is always done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.
We point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., communication by e-mail) has security gaps. Complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.
Contact form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your data from the inquiry form including the contact data you provided there will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
Newsletter data
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require you to provide us with an email address and permission that you agree to receive the newsletter.
To ensure a consensual newsletter dispatch, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure. In this process, you will receive a confirmation e-mail after your registration with the option to confirm the registration in a legally secure manner. Only if the confirmation is made, the address is actively included in the distribution list.
We use your data exclusively for the delivery of our newsletter, as well as for subsequent communication with you.
The comment function on this website
For the comment function on this page, in addition to your comment, information on the time of the creation of the comment and, if you do not post anonymously, the username you have chosen will be stored.
Storage of the IP address
Our comment function stores the IP addresses of users who post comments. We need this data to be able to take action against the author in the event of legal violations, such as insults or propaganda.
SSL encryption
In order to protect your transmitted data as good as possible, the website operators use SSL encryption. You can recognize such encrypted connections by the prefix “https://” in the page link in the address bar of your browser. Unencrypted pages are marked with “http://”.
All data that you transmit to this website – for example when making inquiries or logging in – cannot be read by third parties thanks to SSL encryption.
Server-Log-Files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
- Visited website
- Time at the time of access
- Amount of data sent in bytes
- Source/reference from which you came to the page
- Browser used
- Operating system used
- IP address used
This data cannot be assigned to specific persons. A combination of this data with other data sources is not made. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use. (Conclusion of order processing contract)
The use of contact data published within the framework of the imprint obligation by third parties for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby expressly prohibited. We, as operators of the pages, expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example through spam mails.
Privacy policy for cookies
Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that make it possible to store specific information related to the user on the user’s terminal device while the user is using the website. Cookies make it possible, in particular, to determine the frequency of use and number of users of the pages, to analyze behavior patterns of page use, and also to make our offer more customer-friendly. Cookies remain stored beyond the end of a browser session and can be retrieved when you visit the site again. If you do not wish this to happen, you should set your Internet browser so that it refuses to accept cookies.
To manage the cookies and similar technologies used (tracking pixel, web beacons, etc.) and related consents, we use the consent tool “Real Cookie Banner”. Details on how “Real Cookie Banner” works can be found at https://devowl.io/knowledge-base/real-cookie-banner-data-processing/
Legal bases for the processing of personal data in this context are Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DS-GVO and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. Our legitimate interest is the management of the cookies and similar technologies used and the related consents.
The provision of personal data is not yet contractually required and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide personal data. If you do not provide the personal data, we will not be able to manage your consents.
YouTube
Our website uses plugins from the YouTube site operated by Google. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited.
If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
For more information on the handling of user data, please refer to YouTube’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy
Use of web fonts
External fonts, Google Fonts, are used on these web pages. Google Fonts is a service of Google Inc (“Google”). The integration of these web fonts takes place through a server call, usually a Google server in the USA. This transmits to the server which of our Internet pages you have visited. The IP address of the browser of the end device of the visitor to these Internet pages is also stored by Google. You can find more information in Google’s privacy policy, which you can access here:
