You will also receive information on how your data is used and what rights you have with regard to the use of your data.

You have the right to receive information about your personal data stored by us at any time. You also have the right to have your personal data corrected, blocked or, apart from the mandatory data storage for business transactions.

Passing on your data to third parties

We only pass on your personal data if you have given your express consent, there is a legal obligation to do so, or if this is necessary to enforce our rights, in particular to enforce claims from a contractual relationship with you.

Data collection

This website can be used regularly without providing personal data. If such personal data is nevertheless collected on this website, this is done in the form of a voluntary data entry by the user. The personal data will not be passed on to third parties unless the user’s express consent has been given. If personal data is collected on our website, this data is always collected within the framework of the data protection law of the Federal Republic of Germany. If personal data is collected, you can find the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data in this data protection declaration. Please note that despite the greatest care, data transmission on the Internet is always associated with risks based on security gaps. The unrestricted protection of data is therefore impossible.

Data transmission

When you access our website, your browser automatically transmits data to our web server. The subject of this transmission is anonymized access data without personal reference, such as date and time, browser type, amount and type of data retrieved and your IP address. This data is stored separately from any other data collected when you use our website. This data cannot be used to identify a specific person. This data is only collected for logging user behavior and for statistical purposes. After an appropriate evaluation, the data will be deleted.

Usage data

If necessary, we collect and use so-called usage data from you. This is personal data that enables the use of our website and billing. In doing so, data is collected that contains both the time criteria for your use of our offer, the scope of use and your identification features.
We would like to point out that we are permitted for advertising purposes, for market research purposes and to design our website, usage profiles, i.e. generate compiled data about the progress of visits to our website. These usage profiles do not provide any information about your person and are not merged with any other data collected by us, so that personal identification cannot be carried out by merging different data. You have the right to object to such use of your data at any time.

Cookies

We use cookies when you visit our website. Cookies help in many ways to make your visit to our website easier, more pleasant and more meaningful. Cookies are information files that your web browser automatically saves on your computer’s hard drive when you visit our website.

By setting cookies, no personal data is transmitted to us. We use cookies, for example, to identify you as a user by means of an anonymous identifier without you having to log in separately. Cookies also allow us to analyze your user behavior when visiting our website in an anonymous form
The use of cookies does not mean that we receive personal data about you. The information stored in the cookie does not allow us to be assigned to a specific person or to draw conclusions about individual visitors to our website.

Most internet browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or that a message always appears when you receive a new cookie. You can also delete cookies that have already been placed.
Deactivating cookies may mean that you cannot use all functions of our website.

Google Analytics

Our website uses the services of Google Analytics. This is a web analysis service from Google Inc. The analysis of your use of the website is made possible by the storage of so-called “cookies” on your computer, which then generate information about your usage behavior and forward it to Google Inc. A shortened version of your IP address is usually forwarded to Google Server. In exceptional cases, the complete IP address can also be forwarded. Google uses this information on our behalf to create a report on user behavior on our pages. The IP address determined by Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. If you do not want cookies to be stored on your computer, you can make the appropriate settings in your browser. Unfortunately, this can result in limited use of our website.

Unless the IP addresses are anonymized (IP masking) by inserting the code “gat._anonymizeIp ();” the data collected is treated in accordance with the applicable statutory provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act and Google’s terms of use, which do not permit the transfer of personal data to Google.

Use of script libraries (Google web fonts)

In order to present our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries such as B. Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google web fonts are transferred to the cache of your browser to avoid multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Webfonts or prevents access, content is displayed in a standard font.
Calling script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible – but currently unclear whether and if so for what purposes – that operators of corresponding libraries collect data. The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
