This privacy policy is intended to inform users of this website about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator.

The website operator takes your privacy very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal regulations. Since new technologies and the continuous development of this website may result in changes to this privacy policy, we recommend that you re-read the privacy policy at regular intervals.

Definitions of the terms used (e.g. "personal data" or "processing") can be found in Art. 4 GDPR.

Legal Bases & Purposes of Data Processing

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is generally – unless more specific legal provisions apply – Art. 6 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
The following options are applicable:

• Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR)
• Data processing for the performance of contracts (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR)
• Data processing on the basis of a balancing of interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR)
• Data processing for compliance with a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR)

Access Data / Server Log Files

We, the website operator or page provider, collect data on accesses to the website on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) and store these as "server log files" on the website's server. The following data is recorded:

• Website visited
• Time of access
• Amount of data sent in bytes
• Source/referrer from which you accessed the page
• Browser used
• Operating system used
• IP address used
• Identification of your web browser (User-Agent)
• Previously visited page
• Success or error code of the request

Server log files are stored for a maximum of 180 days and then deleted. The data is stored for security reasons, for example to be able to investigate cases of misuse. If data must be retained for evidentiary purposes, it is exempt from deletion until the incident has been definitively resolved.

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. The user therefore has no right to object.

Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the browser's address bar ("https://" and padlock symbol).

Contact Options

Email Contact

It is possible to contact us via the provided email address. In this case, the personal data of the user transmitted with the email will be stored. The data will not be passed on to third parties. The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation.

Legal basis for data processing with the user's consent: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. For email contact aimed at concluding a contract: additionally Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Processing is carried out on the basis of legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) in order to prevent misuse and ensure IT security.

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected.

Social Media / Social Media Profiles

We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. Visiting these profiles triggers data protection-relevant processing operations. If you are logged in, the operator can associate this with your account. Even without an account, data such as IP address or cookies are collected.

The legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in effective public representation).

Data processing is carried out under joint responsibility pursuant to Art. 26 GDPR with the respective platform operator. Rights such as access, deletion, restriction, etc. can be exercised both with us and with the operator.

Example Facebook: Provider Meta Platforms Ireland Limited. Data may be transferred to the USA. Advertising settings can be adjusted via: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads

• Right to object to processing for advertising / customer data analysis purposes
• General right to object (Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR)

Complaints may be directed to the competent data protection supervisory authority.

Retention Period

Personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose ceases to apply. Longer storage only takes place in the case of a legal obligation or after consent has been given.
