Your personal data to is transferred to countries outside the EU (third party countries) only based on your consent, legal obligations or contractual necessities, but in any event only to the extent that such transfer is permitted. The processing of your personal data in third party countries may result in personal data being processed and stored in unexpected ways.

It is expressly pointed out that according to the opinion of the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. Data processing by US services (such as Google Analytics) may potentially result in personal data not being processed and stored anonymously. In addition, there is the possibility that US government authorities may access individual personal data. It is also possible that personal data collected may be linked to data from other services of the same provider, if you have a corresponding user account. Where possible, we use server locations within the EU.

If data is transferred to third party countries, we will inform you about this at the relevant points in this data protection declaration.

To ensure the protection of personal data, we have implemented technical and organisational measures. As far as possible, personal data is encrypted or pseudonymised. This ensures that the processing of personal data meets the requirements of the DSGVO and that your rights are protected.

Upon contacting us, your personal data may be processed. The personal data processed will be processed for the purpose of dealing with your request and will only be stored for as long as is necessary for the processing or as required by law.

Data subjects are those persons who contact us by whatever means.

If you contact us by telephone, the call data will be stored on the respective terminal device and with the telecommunications provider. Further data, such as your name and telephone number, may be sent and stored in the course of processing your request by e-mail.

The data will be deleted as soon as your request has been dealt with and there are no legal regulations to the contrary.

If you contact us by e-mail, the corresponding data (e-mail address, name etc) will be stored on the respective end device and the e-mail server.

The data will be deleted as soon as your request has been dealt with and there are no legal regulations to the contrary.

If you contact us using our online form, data is stored on the web server, forwarded to an e-mail address and stored accordingly on end devices and the e-mail server.

The data will be deleted as soon as your request has been dealt with and there are no legal regulations to the contrary.

The processing of your data is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) to process and store your data for the purpose of processing your request, to fulfil a contract concluded with you (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO), based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) to be able to process customer requests professionally, or several of these legal bases.

This website uses cookies. These are small text files that are placed and stored on a computer by the internet browser. These cookies store personal data, such as language settings or which browser is used. When you visit our website again, the cookies are sent back to our website and we can display the website according to your settings.

There are 4 categories of cookies that can be distinguished:

Necessary cookies

Such cookies are necessary to provide the functions of our website as intended. For example, settings are saved so that they are not lost each time the website is reloaded or changed.

Performance cookies

Such cookies collect information about user behaviour, whether error messages are displayed, but also loading times and the behaviour of the website is measured with performance cookies.

Functional cookies

Such cookies are not absolutely necessary for the operation of the website, but improve the user experience. For example, form data can be saved so that it does not have to be entered again.

Advertising or targeting cookies

Such cookies make it possible to display individualised advertising to the user.

You decide yourself on the use of cookies and the extent to which they are used. It is possible to delete existing cookies at any time. You can find this option in the settings of your internet browser. You also have the option of deactivating or restricting the use of cookies by our website.

If you would like to find out which cookies are stored on your device, you can also find this information in the settings of your browser.

We process personal data through cookies, insofar as they are absolutely necessary cookies, on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art 6 para 1 lit f DSGVO). We only process cookies that go beyond this on the basis of consent (Art 6 para 1 lit a DSGVO).

In the following sections of this data protection declaration, you will be informed in more detail about the use of cookies, insofar as the software used uses cookies.

When visiting our website, information, including personal data, is automatically collected and stored. This data processing is subject to the principles of the DSGVO such as data economy and purpose limitation and lawfulness.

This website and all sub-pages are provided by a web hosting provider to ensure reliable and error-free operation. When establishing a connection and transferring data between your terminal device and the web server, personal data may be processed in order to enable proper operation.

The purposes of data processing are:

  1. hosting the website and securing its operation;
  2. maintenance of operational and IT security;
  3. anonymised evaluation of access behaviour to improve our offer and, if necessary, for criminal prosecution or prosecution of claims.

During the visit to the website, the following data in particular are collected:

The complete Internet address (URL), the browser used and its version, the operating system used, the Internet address, the website previously visited, host name and IP address of the device from which access is made, date and time.

As a rule, this data is automatically deleted after two weeks. With the exception of inspection by the authorities in the event of unlawful conduct, the data is not passed on.

The basis for processing personal data in the context of web hosting is the protection of legitimate interests (Art 6 para 1 lit f DSGVO), as professional hosting is necessary to ensure a user-friendly, secure presentation of the company on the Internet.

There is a contract on commissioned processing between us and the hosting provider in accordance with Art 28f DSGVO, which ensures compliance with data protection rules and guarantees data security.

We use Digital Ocean, a cloud infrastructure service, for our website. The service provider is the American company DigitalOcean LLC, 101 6th Ave, New York, NY, USA.

Digital Ocean also processes data in the USA, among other places. In the opinion of the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for the transfer of data to the USA. This may be associated with different risks for the lawfulness and security of the data processing.

Digital Ocean uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. para. 2 and 3 DSGVO) as the basis for data processing with recipients based in third party countries (in particular in the USA) or a transfer of data there. These clauses oblige Digital Ocean to comply with the EU level of data protection when processing relevant data outside the EU. These clauses are based on the EU Commission’s Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914 on standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data to third party countries.

You can find out more about the data processed through the use of Digital Ocean in the privacy policy at https://www.digitalocean.com/legal/privacy-policy/.

  • Your user behaviour (for example, clicks, dwell time, bounce rates);
  • Your approximate location (region);
  • Your IP address (in shortened form);
  • Technical information about your browser and the end devices you use (e.g. language setting, screen resolution);
  • your internet service provider;
  • the referrer URL (via which website/ via which advertising medium you came to this website).

On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, and compiling reports on website activity. The reports provided by Google Analytics are used to analyse the performance of our website and the success of our marketing campaigns.

The recipient of the data is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland as a processor. We have concluded an order processing agreement with Google for this purpose.

Social sharing functions

On our website, we use functions that allow you to share posts from our website directly on your social media channels. The service provider is the operator of the respective social network.

Purposes of using the social sharing features

We use social sharing features to enable you to share our posts and to achieve our marketing objectives.

Scope and duration of data processing

The social sharing functions collect personal data such as, in particular, IP addresses, browser and terminal device information, date and time at which the function is used and Internet addresses.

This data is stored in cookies and can be linked to your profile.

All data collected via a social sharing function is stored on the servers of the providers. Therefore, only they have access to the data and can provide you with information or make changes.

If possible, you should address requests for information and the assertion of other user rights directly to the operators of the social medium, as only they have access to all user data and can provide the requested information or take action.

You can obtain further information about the data processing in the respective social medium, its duration, as well as your option to object to the processing of your personal data (opt-out) via the links listed below, which each refer to the information of the operators of the respective social network.

You also have the right and the possibility to revoke your consent to the use of cookies or third-party providers such as embedded social media elements at any time. This works either via our cookie management tool or via other opt-out functions. For example, you can also prevent data collection through cookies by managing, deactivating or deleting cookies in your browser.

Since cookies may be used with social media tools, we also recommend that you read our general data protection declaration on cookies. To find out exactly what data is stored and processed by you, you should read the privacy statements of the respective tools.

The social sharing functions process personal data only after and on the basis of your consent (Art 6 para 1 lit a DSGVO). If you have given your consent for the data processing, the personal data will also be processed on the basis of a legitimate interest (Art 6 para 1 lit f DSGVO). This is the interest in providing social sharing services in a user-friendly and secure manner.

We may embed YouTube videos on our website to present videos directly to you on our website. The service provider is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all data processing in Europe. If you call up a page on our website on which a YouTube video is embedded, a connection is automatically established with the servers of YouTube or Google. This also involves the transfer of personal data.

In order to offer you the best possible user experience, we use the option of presenting videos directly from Youtube on our site.

YouTube sets at least one cookie that stores your IP address and our internet address. If you are logged into your Google account, YouTube may be able to associate your interactions on our website with your profile through cookies. In particular, data such as session duration, bounce rate, approximate location, technical information such as browser type, screen resolution, your ISP, contact details, any ratings, sharing of content via social media or adding to your favourites on YouTube are processed.

YouTube stores your data on servers located both in the EU and in third party countries.

Google stores the collected data for different lengths of time. The exact periods can be found in Google’s privacy policy, here: Privacy Policy – Privacy & Terms – Google.

As the data is processed and stored by Youtube or Google, we recommend that you address requests for information and the assertion of other user rights directly to the operators, if possible, as only they have access to all user data and can provide the requested information or take measures. Of course, you have all the rights provided for by the DSGVO vis-à-vis them.

If you have consented to your data being processed and stored by embedded YouTube elements, this consent is deemed to be the legal basis for data processing (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). In principle, your data will also be stored and processed on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) in fast and good communication with you or other customers and business partners.

YouTube also processes data in the USA, among other places. According to the opinion of the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for the transfer of data to the USA. This may be associated with various risks to the lawfulness and security of data processing.

As a basis for data processing with recipients located in third party countries (in particular in the USA) or a data transfer there, YouTube uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. para. 2 and 3 DSGVO). These clauses oblige YouTube to comply with the EU level of data protection when processing relevant data outside the EU. These clauses are based on an implementing decision of the EU Commission.
