2. General information on data processing

The protection of your personal data is important to us. We treat your personal data as confidential and process it exclusively in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Personal data is any information that can be used to identify you personally or that relates to an identifiable individual.

Below, we set out what personal data is processed when you use our website, the purposes for which this is done, and what rights you have.

3. Provision of the website and server log files

When you visit our website, the web server automatically processes certain information. This may include, in particular:

* IP address of the device accessing the site

* Date and time of access

* page accessed or file requested

* amount of data transferred

* browser and operating system used

* Referrer-URL

* further technical information, if applicable

This data is processed for the purpose of providing the website from a technical perspective, ensuring the security and stability of the website, and identifying and resolving any technical issues.

Data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in ensuring that our website is provided in a secure, stable and technically sound manner.

The server log files are stored only for as long as is necessary for the purposes stated, and are subsequently deleted or anonymised, provided that there are no statutory retention obligations to the contrary.

4. Contact via email

If you contact us by email, the personal data you provide will be processed. This may include, in particular, your email address, your name and any information you provide voluntarily.

Your data is processed in order to deal with and respond to your enquiry and, where applicable, to carry out pre-contractual measures or to fulfil a contract.

Depending on the content of the enquiry, the legal basis is either Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR or Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

The data you have provided will be deleted as soon as your enquiry has been fully processed and there are no statutory retention obligations or other legitimate reasons for further storage.

5. Contact form

On our website, we use the contact form provided by WPForms. The contact form enables you to get in touch with us directly.

If you use the contact form, the data you enter will be processed. This may include, in particular:

* Name

* Email address

* Telephone number, if provided

* Companies, where specified

* the content of your message

* technical data such as the IP address

The information marked with an asterisk is required so that we can process your enquiry. Any further details are optional.

The data submitted via the contact form is processed for the purpose of handling your enquiry and, where applicable, for the purpose of taking pre-contractual measures in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, or on the basis of our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

Data submitted via the contact form is stored on our WordPress system and used solely for the purpose of processing the relevant enquiry. As a general rule, this data is not passed on to third parties, unless there is a legal obligation to do so.

WPForms may process cookies or technical information as part of the technical implementation of the form. In addition, the user’s IP address is processed in connection with the submission of the form.

We use the free version of WPForms. It is not possible to disable IP address logging in the version we are using.

Further information on the processing of personal data by WPForms can be found in the provider’s privacy policy.

6. Fonts

This website uses fonts that are stored locally on our own web server and are loaded from there.

When you visit the website, therefore, no connection is established with Google’s servers to retrieve the fonts used.

As the fonts are embedded locally, no personal data is transmitted to Google in this context.

7. Cookies

Our website uses technically necessary cookies to the extent that this is required for the technical provision and functioning of individual website components.

In addition, technically necessary cookies may be set by WordPress components used on the site or by the contact form.

Technically necessary cookies are used to enable the website’s basic functions and to ensure its secure and reliable operation. They are used in accordance with Section 25(2)(2) of the TDDDG, insofar as this is necessary for the respective function.

Where cookies or similar technologies are used that are not technically necessary, we will obtain the relevant consent before using them.

8. Retention period

We only retain personal data for as long as is necessary for the relevant purpose or as required by statutory retention obligations.

Once the relevant purpose for processing the data no longer applies, the data will be deleted, provided there are no statutory or other legal grounds preventing such deletion.

9. Your rights

You have the following rights in accordance with the statutory requirements:

* Right of access under Article 15 of the GDPR

* Right to rectification under Article 16 of the GDPR

* Right to erasure under Article 17 of the GDPR

* Right to restriction of processing under Article 18 of the GDPR

* Right to data portability under Article 20 of the GDPR

* Right to object to processing under Article 21 of the GDPR

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future. This does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out prior to the withdrawal.

To exercise your rights, you may contact the data controller mentioned above at any time.

10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

If you believe that the processing of your personal data contravenes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.

In particular, you may contact the data protection supervisory authority responsible for our head office.
