Privacy Policy

Security Measures

We implement organizational, contractual, and technical security measures in accordance with the state of the art to ensure compliance with data protection laws and to protect the data we process against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction, or unauthorized access. Security measures particularly include the encrypted transmission of data between your browser and our server.

Disclosure of Data to Third Parties and Third-Party Providers

Data is only disclosed to third parties within the framework of legal requirements. We only transfer user data to third parties if this is necessary for contractual purposes pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR or based on legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR in the economic and efficient operation of our business.

If we use subcontractors to provide our services, we take appropriate legal precautions and corresponding technical and organizational measures to ensure the protection of personal data in accordance with relevant legal regulations.

If, as part of this privacy policy, content, tools, or other resources from other providers (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") are used and their stated headquarters are in a third country, it is assumed that a data transfer to the headquarters of the third-party provider takes place. Third countries are defined as countries where the GDPR is not directly applicable law, i.e., generally countries outside the EU or the European Economic Area. Data transfer to third countries occurs either when an adequate level of data protection is ensured, the users have given their consent, or another legal permission is present.

Contacting Us

If you contact us via email, your provided data will be stored for six months for the purpose of processing the request and for potential follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent.

Recording of Server Logs

Every access to our website and every retrieval of a file stored on this site is logged. Storage serves internal system-related and statistical purposes. Logged data includes information about requested content, date and time of access, transmitted data volume, Internet Protocol address ("IP address"), and technical information about the visitor’s device. The technical information (operating system, browser software, browser version, and screen resolution) does not allow identification of a specific visitor or person. Detailed logs are deleted after statistical evaluation.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies, which are small text files that are stored on your device via your browser. They do not cause any harm. We use cookies to make our website user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. They enable us to recognize your browser upon your next visit. If you do not wish this, you can configure your browser to notify you about cookie settings and allow cookies only in individual cases. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our website. More information about cookies can be found on Wikipedia.

Changing Cookie Settings

Users can configure how their web browser handles cookies, including allowing or rejecting them, in their browser settings. The exact location of these settings depends on the browser being used. Detailed information can be accessed via the help function of the respective browser. If cookie usage is restricted, some website functionalities may no longer be fully available.

Cookies used on our Website

Our website uses the following cookies:

– Cookie Consent (cb-enabled): Stores consent to cookie usage
– Google Analytics (_ga, _gat, _gid): Stores user data related to Google Analytics website statistics
– Google Maps (gstatic.com, CONSENT): Stores user data related to Google Maps integration

Integration of Third-Party Services and Content

We use third-party content or services within our online offering based on our legitimate interests (i.e., interest in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our online offering pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). This includes embedding content such as videos or fonts (hereinafter referred to as "content"). This always requires that the third-party providers of this content perceive users’ IP addresses since they cannot deliver content to users' browsers without the IP address. The IP address is therefore necessary for displaying this content. We strive to use only content where providers use the IP address solely for content delivery. Third-party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also called "web beacons") for statistical or marketing purposes. Through "pixel tags," information such as visitor traffic on our website can be analyzed. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on users’ devices and contain technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, visit duration, and other details about our online offering. Such data may also be linked with information from other sources.

The following overview lists third-party providers and their content, along with links to their privacy policies, which contain further information about data processing and, in some cases, opt-out options:

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"), 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses cookies that store information about your use of the website (including your IP address), which is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google uses this information to analyze your use of the website, generate reports on website activities for operators, and provide other services related to website and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required by law or where third parties process the data on Google's behalf. Google will never associate your IP address with other Google data. You can prevent cookie storage via your browser settings; however, in this case, you may not be able to use all website functions fully. By using this website, you consent to Google's processing of your data in the manner and for the purpose described above. You can opt out of Google Analytics data collection for the future by installing a deactivation add-on (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout). This website uses Google Analytics with the "anonymizeIp" extension, so IP addresses are only processed in a truncated form to prevent direct personal identification.

We use maps from Google Maps, a service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Privacy Policy: www.google.com/policies/privacy/, Opt-Out: www.google.com/settings/ads/.

Changes to the Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy to reflect changes in legal requirements, services, or data processing. However, this only applies to statements about data processing. If user consent is required or if elements of the privacy policy affect contractual relationships, changes will only be made with user consent.
