General information on data processing
We generally process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary for providing a functioning website and its content. The processing of personal data of our users is based on the following legal grounds:
When we obtain consent from the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a) EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU-GDPR) serves as the legal basis.
For the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.
If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or a third party and such interests are not overridden by the data subject's interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
The personal data of the data subject shall be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage ceases to apply. In addition, data may be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned regulations expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.
Provision of the website and creation of log files
Each time you visit our website, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling computer.
The following data is collected:
The data is also stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.
The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. The user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
The storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.
These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collected for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session is ended and, for data stored in log files, no later than seven days Further storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of users are deleted or anonymised, so that an assignment to the calling client is no longer possible.
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is mandatory for the operation of the website. Therefore, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user.
Use of cookies
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in the Internet browser or by the Internet browser on the user's computer system. Cookies make it possible, in particular, to determine the frequency of use and number of users of the pages, to analyse behaviour patterns of page use, but also to make the offer more customer-friendly. Cookies remain stored beyond the end of a browser session and can be accessed again when you visit the site again.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions that you have requested (e.g. language settings) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies to analyze your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are treated separately in this privacy policy. If you do not want cookies to be stored on your computer, you will be asked to deactivate the corresponding option in the system settings of your browser. Stored cookies can be deleted in the system settings of the browser. The exclusion of cookies can lead to functional restrictions of this website.
Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted by the user to our website. Therefore, as a user, you also have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your Internet browser, you can disable or restrict the transfer of cookies. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be automated. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it may no longer be possible to use all functions of the website to their full extent.
Newsletter
On our website, you have the option to subscribe to a free newsletter. When registering for the newsletter, the information you enter into the input mask is transmitted to us, including your first and last name, salutation, company, and email address.
Additionally, the IP address of the requesting computer, as well as the date and time of registration, are stored.
Your consent is obtained during the registration process, and reference is made to this privacy policy for data processing.
For sending the newsletter, we use a service provider to whom we have contractually obligated to comply with our instructions as part of data processing. Your data will not be passed on to third parties and will be used exclusively for sending the newsletter.
The legal basis for data processing after the user subscribes to the newsletter is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, provided that the user gives their consent.
The user's email address is collected in order to deliver the newsletter. Other personal data collected during the registration process is used to prevent misuse of the services or the email address entered.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Accordingly, the user's email address is stored for as long as the subscription to the newsletter is active. The other personal data collected during the registration process is usually deleted after a period of seven days.
The subscription to the newsletter can be cancelled by the user concerned at any time. For this purpose, there is a corresponding link in every newsletter.

Google Maps
We use the component "Google Maps" of the company Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter "Google", on our website.
With each individual access of the "Google Maps" component, a cookie is set by Google in order to process user settings and data when displaying the page on which the "Google Maps" component is integrated. This cookie is usually not deleted by closing the browser, but expires after a certain time, unless you delete it manually beforehand.
If you do not agree with this processing of your data, you have the option of deactivating the "Google Maps" service and in this way preventing the transfer of data to Google. To do this, you must deactivate the Java Script function in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use "Google Maps" or only to a limited extent. The use of "Google Maps" and the information obtained via "Google Maps" is subject to the Google Terms of Use google.de/intl/de/policies/terms/regional.html and the additional terms and conditions for "Google Maps" google.com/intl/de_de/help/terms_maps.html.
Use of Vimeo plugins
We use Vimeo, among others, as provider for embedding videos. Vimeo is operated by Vimeo, LLC, headquartered at 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011.
In this process, we use plugins provided by Vimeo. When you visit the web pages of our website that are equipped with such a plugin, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established, and the plugin is displayed. This transmits to the Vimeo server which of our Internet pages you have visited. If you are logged in as a member of Vimeo (which is of course not required for viewing only our video), Vimeo assigns this information to your personal user account. When using the plugin, such as clicking the start button of a video, this information is also assigned to your user account. You can prevent this assignment by logging out of your Vimeo user account before using our website and deleting the corresponding cookies from Vimeo.
Further information on data processing and data protection by Vimeo can be found at vimeo.com/privacy.

You have the right to request information on whether personal data concerning you is transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. In this context, you can request to be informed about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR relating to the transfer.
2. Right to rectification
You have the right to request the data controller to correct and/or complete personal data concerning you that is incorrect or incomplete. The data controller must make the correction without undue delay.

(4) if you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate grounds of the data controller override your grounds.
If the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted under the above circumstances, such data may only be processed – except for storage – with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
If processing has been restricted according to the above conditions, you will be informed by the data controller before the restriction is lifted.
4. Right to erasure
a) Obligation to erase
You may request the controller to erase personal data concerning you without undue delay, and the controller is obliged to delete such data without undue delay, if one of the following reasons applies:
(1) The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
(2) You withdraw your consent on which the processing pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

c) Exceptions
The right to erasure does not exist insofar as the processing is necessary
(1) for exercising the right to freedom of expression and information;
(2) for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
(3) for reasons of public interest in the field of public health pursuant to Art. 9 (2) (h) and (i) and Art. 9 (3) GDPR;
(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 (1) of the GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in Section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously prejudice the achievement of the purposes of such processing, or
(5) for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
5. Right to information
If you have asserted your right to rectify, erase, or restrict the processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to communicate this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing to all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
You have the right to be informed about these recipients by the data controller.
6. Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the controller in a structured, common and machine-readable format.

(2) the processing is carried out with the aid of automated procedures.
In exercising this right, you also have the right to obtain that the personal data concerning you be transferred directly from one controller to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. Freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.
The right to data portability does not apply to processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
7. Right of objection
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.
8. Right to withdraw consent under data protection law
You have the right to withdraw your consent to data protection at any time. The withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
9. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Art. 78 GDPR.
