VALIDITY OF OUR DATA PROTECTION DECLARATION
With this privacy policy, we fulfill the information requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for our website and for the personal data we collect via our websites. In addition, the national data protection laws of the member states apply, in Germany in particular the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG). For third-party applications and websites to which links are provided, for example, the privacy policies of those websites apply. Unless otherwise stated, we are not responsible for the processing of your data within the scope of websites or applications that are not operated by us, nor are we responsible for their content.
LEGAL BASIS FOR THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA
Insofar as we obtain your consent for the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
Data deletion and storage period
Your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. Storage may also take place if this has been provided for by European or national legislators in EU regulations, laws, or other provisions to which we are subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless further storage of the data is necessary for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.
PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA WHEN VISITING OUR WEBSITE
(2) When you visit our website, your device's browser automatically sends information to our website's server, which is temporarily stored in log files. The log files contain information such as your IP address, the URL of the website accessed, the date and time of access, information about a successful page view, loading time, the website from which you accessed our website, the type and version of your browser, the operating system of your device, and the name of your Internet service provider.
(3) The technical data collected does not allow any direct conclusions to be drawn about your identity. We do not store this data together with other personal data about you.
(4) The legal basis for data processing is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). The data is technically necessary for us to display our website to you, to ensure a smooth connection, the stability and security of the system, and to protect against misuse.
(5) Since the processing of the data is absolutely necessary for the provision and operation of our website, you have no right to object.
(6) The connection data is deleted immediately after the https request has been made. The log file data is automatically deleted after seven days.
USE OF COOKIES
(1) When you visit our website, our web server sends so-called cookies. Cookies are very small text files that are stored on the hard drive of your end device (computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) and assigned to the browser you are using when you visit our website. Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses or Trojans to your end device. Personal data is not stored in a cookie.
(2) In order to simplify the use of our website for you, we use strictly necessary (“essential”) cookies. Essential cookies (“temporary cookies,” e.g., “session cookies”) store a so-called session ID, which allows various requests from your browser to be assigned to your session. Temporary cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. In addition, we use permanent cookies (also known as “persistent cookies”). When you visit our website again, it automatically recognizes that you have already visited our website and which entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again. Permanent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete cookies at any time in your browser's security settings. In addition to our own cookies, we also use cookies from other providers (“third-party cookies”) to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing our offer for you. We provide separate and individual information about the third-party cookies used in the following sections; these cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period of time.
(3) Most browsers accept cookies by default. You can allow or block temporary, permanent, and other cookies independently of each other in your browser's security settings. Help menus for common browsers can be found at the following links:

(4) The use of technically necessary cookies and functionality cookies is based on legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Our legitimate interest lies in ensuring the functioning of our websites and their optimal usability. We also use third-party cookies (such as analytics cookies) based on legitimate interests in order to optimize the quality of our websites and their content.
CONSENT TO THE USE OF COOKIES, OBJECTION
(1) The use of technically necessary cookies does not require consent and there is no option to object. Technically necessary cookies include, for example, session cookies that temporarily store certain settings you have made (e.g., login data, language settings, or other settings on our website), session cookies for load balancing on the server, multimedia cookies for playing media content (e.g., Flash Player), cookies set by integrated payment service providers (which do not analyze specific usage behavior, but only serve to prepare possible payments or to check payment legitimacy), opt-out cookies, which can be used to revoke cookie consent, the cookie that records the consent status for other cookies, cookies from live chat systems and messenger services. You can only deactivate these cookies by adjusting your browser settings.
(2) We require your consent to store and read cookies that are not technically necessary. We point this out on our website.
(3) If you do not agree to the storage and evaluation of data from your visit, you can object to the storage and use of technically unnecessary cookies at any time. If you object, cookies will not be used and the associated data processing will be discontinued in the future. Your objection will not affect your use of our website unless you also deactivate the functions of the technically necessary cookies.
(4) You can object to the use of third-party cookies and the associated data processing at any time as follows: (i) You can adjust your browser settings to prevent our website from setting cookies. (ii) You can click on the opt-out link provided by the respective service provider for each individual processing operation and deactivate the further use of cookies and the associated data processing there. (iii) You can download and install the Google opt-out add-on for your browser, for example. Opt-out cookies prevent Google services from collecting your data in the future when you visit this and other websites. To prevent data collection on different devices, you must install the opt-out add-on on all devices you use.
We use the consent tool “Real Cookie Banner” to manage the cookies and similar technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, etc.) we use and the related consent. Details on how “Real Cookie Banner” works can be found at https://devowl.io/de/rcb/datenverarbeitung/.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data in this context is Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR and Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the management of the cookies and similar technologies used and the related consent.
The provision of personal data is neither contractually required nor necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide personal data. If you do not provide the personal data, we cannot manage your consent.
PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA WHEN CONTACTING US
(1) If you contact us by post, telephone, fax, email, or via a contact form, we will process the personal data you provide and the content of the communication only to process your request and, if necessary, to comply with existing legal recording obligations. (2) Data processing for the purpose of contacting us is generally voluntary. The legal basis depends on the specific purpose of the communication. If consent has been given, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. The legal basis for data processing will often be the protection of our legitimate interests in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (such as conducting business correspondence, responding to inquiries about data protection). If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR is the additional legal basis for data processing. Insofar as further processing is necessary to fulfill statutory retention obligations, Article 6(1)(c) GDPR is the legal basis. (3) We delete the communication data incurred as soon as storage is no longer necessary to fulfill the purpose, unless statutory retention obligations prevent deletion. (4) You have the option of revoking your consent to data processing at any time under the statutory conditions (see section “Rights of data subjects”). If you contact us by email, you can object to data processing at any time, e.g. by email. The data stored in the course of contacting us will then be deleted so that communication with you can no longer be continued.

(4) We will delete the personal data collected as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless longer statutory limitation periods or statutory retention obligations (e.g., up to 10 years in accordance with the German Commercial Code or the German Fiscal Code) prevent deletion.
