In principal, we collect and use personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website, our contents and our services. Collection and utilization of personal data regularly occurs only with the consent of the user. An exception applies to cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for reasons of fact and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) serves as the legal basis insofar as we obtain the consent of the affected person for the purposes of processing personal data.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. b DSGVO serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the affected person is a party. This also applies to processing operations which are necessary to carry out pre-contractual actions.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. c DSGVO serves as the legal basis insofar as processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. d DSGVO serves as the legal basis in the event that vital interests of the affected person or another natural person require the processing of personal data.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO serves as the legal basis for the processing if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legal interest of our company or of a third party, and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the affected person prevail over the first-mentioned interest.
The personal data of the affected person will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage ceases to exist. In addition, storage may also occur if this storage is intended by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other guidelines to which the responsible authority is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data also occurs upon the expiration of a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.
We utilize state-of-the-art encryption techniques (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS to protect the security of your data during transmission
Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling computer.
The following data are collected in this context:
These data are also stored in our system’s log files. The complete anonymization of the IP address does not lead to the storage of data which could facilitate their correlation with a specific user. Storage of these data does not occur together with other personal data of the user.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO is the legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files.
The system temporarily stores the IP address because this storage is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user’s computer. To accomplish this delivery, the user’s IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
Storage in log files is undertaken to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data enable us to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our IT systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not occur in this context.
These purposes also involve our legitimate interest in the processing of data pursuant to Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer needed to accomplish the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of collecting the data in order to provide the website, this deletion occurs when the respective session is ended.
In the case of data stored in log files, this deletion occurs no later than 7 days after the date of initial storage. Storage beyond this date is possible.
The collection of data for provision of the website and the storage of data in log files are essential for the operation of the website. There is consequently no possibility for the user to object to it.
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored either in, or by, the internet browser of the user’s computer system. When a user accesses a website, a cookie may be stored on the user’s operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string that allows the browser to be uniquely identified when the same browser accesses the website again.
We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require that the calling browser can also be identified when the caller returns to the website.
The following data are stored in, and transmitted by, the cookies:
In addition, on our website we use cookies that allow an analysis of users’ surfing behaviour. Analysis cookies are used for the purpose of improving the quality of our website and its contents. Through the analysis cookies, we learn how the website is used, thus enabling us to continually optimize our offer.
You can read additional information in the sectioned titled “Google Analytics und Google Tag Manager”.
Technical precautionary arrangements pseudonymize users’ data which are collected in this way. This pseudonymization assures that the data can no longer be assigned to the calling user. The data are not stored together with other personal data of the users.
When users access our website, an information banner notifies them about the use of cookies and calls their attention to this Data Protection Declaration. In this context, a notification also appears explaining how users can modify their browser settings to prevent the storage of cookies.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO is the legal basis for the use of cookies in the processing of personal data.
The purpose of the use of technically necessary cookies is to make it simpler for the user to utilize websites. Some features of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For these features, it is necessary for the browser to recognize the user when the user returns to the website.
We need cookies for the following applications:
User data collected via technically necessary cookies will not be used to create user profiles.
These purposes also involve our legitimate interest in the processing of data pursuant to Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
Cookies are stored on the user’s computer, which transmits them to our website. Therefore you, as the user, 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. Please use the help features of your internet browser to learn how you can change these settings. Previously stored cookies can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies for our website are deactivated, it may not be possible to use all of our website’s functions to their full extent.
Description and scope of data processing
We use the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform as a consent management tool as part of the analytics activities on our website.
The Usercentrics Consent Management Platform collects log file and consent data using JavaScript. This JavaScript enables us to inform users about their consent to certain tags on our website and to obtain, manage and document this consent.
We process the following data in this process:
1. (1) Consent data or data of consent (anonymized log data (Consent ID, Processor ID, Controller ID), Consent Status, Timestamp).
2. (2) Device data (e.g., shortened IP addresses (IP v4, IP v6), device information, timestamp)
3. (3) User data (e.g. eMail, ID, Browser information, SettingIDs, Changelog)
The ConsentID (contains the above data), the Consent status incl. timestamp are stored in the local memory of your browser and simultaneously on the cloud servers used. Further processing will only take place if you submit a request for information or revoke your consent. In this case, the relevant information is provided to the responsible party (FIELD M) in a compact data format in an easily readable text form for the purpose of data exchange (JSON file).
No user information is stored for the statistics of the use of the granted or not granted consent. Only the frequency and locations of clicks are stored.
Personal data is stored on a Google Cloud server located in the EU (Brussels, Frankfurt am Main).
Purpose of data processing
The purpose of the data processing is the analysis and management of the consents granted in order to comply with our obligation of a DSGVO-compliant consent management. The use of Usercentrics serves the purpose of proving granted and non-granted consents as well as their management.
The specific processing purposes of the personal data named in 5.1 are:
4. (1) Obtaining and providing the Consents.
5. (2) Providing evidence of which device you used to provide the consent and at what time
6. (3) Legitimization of access to the settings and documentation of changes.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the management of your consents for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest lies in the legally compliant documentation and verifiability of consents, the targeting of marketing measures based on the consent granted, and the optimization of consent rates.
Duration of storage
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required. The associated cookie has a duration of 60 days. The revocation document of a previously granted consent is stored for a period of three years. The retention is based on the one hand on our accountability pursuant to Art. 5 (2) DSGVO. This obligates us to comply with the processing of personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation. On the other hand, retention is based on the regular statute of limitations pursuant to Section 195 of the German Civil Code (BGB) of three years. This limitation period begins at the end of the year in which the claim arose (§ 199 BGB). Consequently, the three-year limitation period begins at the end of 31.12. and ends three years later on 31.12., 24.00 hours.
Possibility of objection and removal
The function can be switched on and off in our "Privacy settings" by checking the checkbox.
This website uses Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager. These are web-analytics services provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”). The use includes the “Universal Analytics” operating mode, which makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID, thus analyzing the activities of a user across devices.
Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, i.e. text files that are stored on your computer and that make it possible to analyze your use of the website. The data which the cookie generates about your use of this website are usually transmitted to, and stored by, a Google server in the USA. However, in the event of activation of IP anonymization on this website, Google will shorten your IP address beforehand within member states of the European Union or in contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to, and shortened by, a Google server in the USA. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use these data to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities, and to provide the website’s operator with other services related to website usage and internet usage. These purposes also involve our legitimate interest in the processing of data. § 15 Abs.3 TMG or Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO is the legal basis for the use of Google Analytics. Sessions and campaigns will be ended after a specific interval has elapsed. By default, sessions will be ended after 30 minutes have elapsed without any activity, and campaigns will be ended after six months have elapsed. The time limit for campaigns can be maximally two years. You can find further information about terms of use and data protection at https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html or under https://policies.google.com/?hl=en.
You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser’s software accordingly; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all of this website’s features to the fullest extent possible. Moreover, you can prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and you can prevent Google from processing these data. You can accomplish this prevention by downloading and installing the following browser add-on: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en .

This website uses Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"), which can be used to analyze the use of websites.
When using Google Analytics 4, so-called "cookies" are used as standard. Cookies are text files that are stored on your terminal device and enable an analysis of your use of a website. The information collected by cookies about your use of the website (including the IP address transmitted by your terminal device, shortened by the last digits, see below) is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored and processed there. This may also result in the transmission of information to the servers of Google LLC, a company based in the USA, where the information is further processed.
When using Google Analytics 4, the IP address transmitted by your terminal device when you use the website is always collected and processed by default and automatically only in an anonymized manner, so that a direct personal reference of the collected information is excluded. This automatic anonymization is carried out by shortening the IP address transmitted by your terminal device by Google within member states of the European Union (EU) or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA) by the last digits.
On our behalf, Google uses this and other information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports (reports) on your website activities or your usage behavior and to provide us with other services related to your website usage and internet usage. In this context, the IP address transmitted and shortened by your terminal device within the scope of Google Analytics 4 will not be merged with other data from Google. The data collected in the context of the use of Google Analytics 4 will be retained for 2 months and then deleted.
Google Analytics 4 also enables the creation of statistics with statements about age, gender and interests of website users on the basis of an evaluation of interest-based advertising and with the involvement of third-party information via a special function, the so-called "demographic characteristics". This makes it possible to determine and distinguish between groups of website users for the purpose of targeting marketing measures. However, data collected via the "demographic characteristics" cannot be assigned to a specific person and thus not to you personally. This data collected via the "demographic characteristics" function is retained for two months and then deleted.
All processing described above, in particular the setting of Google Analytics cookies for the storage and reading of information on the terminal device used by you to use the website, will only take place if you have given us your express consent for this in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a DSGVO. Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 will not be used during your use of the website. You can revoke your consent once given at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, please deactivate this service via the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.
We have concluded a so-called order processing agreement with Google for our use of Google Analytics 4, by which Google is obliged to protect the data of our website users and not to pass it on to third parties.
To ensure compliance with the European level of data protection, even in the event of any transfer of data from the EU or EEA to the USA and possible further processing there, Google refers to the so-called standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which we have contractually agreed with Google.
Further legal information on Google Analytics 4, including a copy of the aforementioned standard contractual clauses, can be found at the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de

We use the offer of Google Ads Conversion to draw attention to our attractive offers with the help of advertising media (so-called Google Ads) on external websites. In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. In this way, we pursue the interest of displaying advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you and achieving a fair calculation of advertising costs.
These advertisements are delivered by Google via so-called "ad servers". For this purpose, we use ad server cookies, through which certain parameters for measuring success, such as display of the ads or clicks by users, can be measured. If you access our website via a Google ad, Google Ads will store a cookie on your end device. These cookies usually lose their validity after 30 days and are not intended to identify you personally. The unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions) and opt-out information (marking that a user no longer wishes to be addressed) are usually stored as analysis values for this cookie.
These cookies enable Google to recognize your internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of the website of Ads customers and the cookie stored on his computer has not yet expired, Google and the customers can recognize that a user has clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Ads customer is assigned a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of Ads customers. We ourselves do not collect and process any personal data in the aforementioned advertising measures. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google. Based on these evaluations, we can see which of the advertising measures used are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of the advertising tools; in particular, we cannot identify users on the basis of this information.
Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge: Through the integration of Ads Conversion, Google receives the information that you have called up the corresponding part of our website or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, there is a possibility that Google will learn and store your IP address.
Through Google Conversion Linker, ad click information is automatically captured in conversion page URLs and stored in custom cookies in your domain for web pages. The data is then redirected into URLs for AMP pages. We use Google Conversion Linker with other Google Marketing Platform products. This way, unique IDs can also be stored in these cookies.
We use the remarketing function within the Google Ads service. With the remarketing function, we can present users of our website with advertisements based on their interests on other websites within the Google advertising network (in Google Search or on YouTube, so-called "Google Ads" or on other websites). For this purpose, the interaction of users on our website is analyzed, e.g. which offers a user was interested in, in order to be able to display targeted advertising to users on other sites even after they have visited our website. For this purpose, Google stores cookies on the end devices of users who visit certain Google services or websites in the Google display network. These cookies are used to record the visits of these users. The cookies are used to uniquely identify a web browser on a particular end device and not to identify a person.

This website uses Google Maps API for the visual display of geographic information. When visitors use Google Maps, Google also collects, processes and uses data about the visitors’ utilization of the map features. For more information about Google’s data processing, please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy at http://www.google.com/privacypolicy.html.

We use script libraries such as Google WebFonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) on this website in order to display our contents across browsers correctly and in a visually appealing form. Accessing script libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library’s operator. In such instances, it is possible that the operators of such libraries might collect data.
Google WebFonts is a service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google WebFonts are transferred to your browser’s cache to prevent multiple loading.
If the browser does not support Google WebFonts or prohibits access, contents will be displayed in a standard font.
The integration of these web fonts occurs via a call to a server, which is usually a Google server in the USA. This call tells the server which of our websites you have visited. Google also stores the IP address of the browser of the terminal of the visitor of these websites. You can find more detailed information in Google’s Privacy Policy, which you can access here:
We embed YouTube videos on some of our websites. The operator of the corresponding plug-ins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plug-in, it will connect to YouTube’s servers. This will tell YouTube which pages you visit. If you are logged in to your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your surfing behaviour to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand.
When a YouTube video is started, the provider utilizes cookies that collect information about user behaviour.
Anyone who has deactivated the storage of cookies for the Google Ad programme will not have to expect such cookies, also when viewing YouTube videos. However, YouTube does store non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in the browser.
You can find more detailed information about data protection at YouTube in the provider’s data protection declaration at: https://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy/
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will use the information that you provide solely for this purpose or to notify you about circumstances relevant to this service or the subscription. We will not share these data with third parties.
A valid email address is required in order to receive the newsletter. In addition to this email address, we also save the IP address that you used to sign up for the newsletter and the date on which you ordered the newsletter. These data serve us as proof of misuse if a foreign email address is registered for the newsletter. To further ensure that third parties do not misuse an email address in our mailing list, we also work, in accordance with the law, with the so-called “double opt-in” procedure. In the context of this procedure, a record is kept of the order of the newsletter, the sending of the confirmation email, and the receipt of the confirmation of registration.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. a DSGVO is the legal basis for the processing of data after the user has subscribed to the newsletter and after the user has consented to such processing.
You have the option to revoke, at any time, your consent to the storage of data, to the storage of your email address, and to its utilization for sending the newsletter. To facilitate your cancellation, we include a corresponding link in each edition of the newsletter. You also have the option to notify us of your desire to cancel your subscription via the contact options mentioned in this document.
This website uses CleverReach to send newsletters. The provider is CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG, Mühlenstr. 43, 26180 Rastede, Germany. CleverReach is a service that can be used to organise and analyse the sending of newsletters. The data you enter for the purpose of receiving the newsletter (e.g. email address) is stored on CleverReach's servers in Germany or Ireland. Our newsletters sent with CleverReach enable us to analyse the behaviour of newsletter recipients. Among other things, we can analyse how many recipients have opened the newsletter message and how often which link in the newsletter was clicked on. Conversion tracking can also be used to analyse whether a predefined action (e.g. purchase of a product on this website) has taken place after clicking on the link in the newsletter. Further information on data analysis by CleverReach newsletters can be found at: https://www.cleverreach.com/de/funktionen/reporting-und-tracking/. Data processing takes place on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the cancellation.
If you do not wish to be analysed by CleverReach, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a link for this purpose in every newsletter message. You can also unsubscribe from the newsletter directly on the website.
The data you provide us with for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.
After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with the legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.
For more information, please refer to CleverReach's privacy policy at: https://www.cleverreach.com/de/datenschutz/.
Conclusion of a contract for order processing
We have concluded an order processing contract with the provider of CleverReach and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using CleverReach.
We offer you the opportunity to use the so-called “Social Media Buttons” on our website. To protect your data in the implementation, we rely on the “Shariff” solution. This assures that the buttons are integrated on the website only as a graphic which contains a link to the corresponding website of the button’s provider. When you click on the graphic, you will be redirected to the services of the respective provider. Only then will your data be sent to the respective provider. If you do not click on the graphic, no exchange of data occurs between you and the providers of the Social Media Buttons. For more detailed information about the collection and usage of your data in the social networks, please refer to the terms of use the respective providers. You can find additional information about the Shariff solution here: http://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html
We have integrated the Social Media Buttons of the following companies on our website:
Facebook Inc. (1601 S. California Ave., Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA)
Our website uses the so-called “Facebook pixel” of the Facebook social network for analysis, optimization and the economical operation of our online offer. When the website is accessed, a tracking pixel is set and data is transmitted to Facebook and assigned to the user’s account. The pixel enable us to provide users with advertisements (“Facebook ads”) that are relevant to their specific interests.
The legal basis of the data processing is art. 6, para. 1, lit. f DSGVO.
Facebook’s data policy can be accessed at www.facebook.com/about/privacy.
