We attach great importance to the protection of your personal data. As the protection of your privacy as well as your business data are highly important to us, we comply with the data protection regulations applicable in Germany.

In the following, we would like to inform you in detail about the data that is collected when you visit our website and use the services and offerings we provide on it and how it is processed or used by us, as well as which accompanying protective measures we have also taken, both technically and organizationally.

2. Collection and processing of non-personal data

(1) When you simply visit the website, we do not collect any personal data. However, every server automatically saves access to internet pages. Temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session. For system security, our web server temporarily records the IP address of the requesting computer, the browser you are using, the operating system used, the date and time of access, the websites you visit, the Uniform Resource Locators (URL) requested on our websites and the previously visited website (referrer URL). This information is stored anonymously and is not linked to your personal data. It is not possible to draw conclusions about your person or your individual behavior. The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

(2) The website does not use cookies.

(3) The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. When it comes to the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. IP addresses are generally deleted no later than seven days after their collection. Storage beyond this is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or anonymized so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.

(4) The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is essential for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility for the user to object.

3. Collection and use of personal data

(1) We collect, store and process your actively transmitted personal data insofar as this is necessary for the processing of inquiries or the fulfillment of our contractual obligations. The collection and use of personal data of our users only takes place regularly with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for concrete reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
You can contact us via the email address provided. In this case, the user’s personal data transmitted with the email will be stored. No data will be passed on to third parties in this context. The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation. The legal basis for the processing of data with the user’s consent is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an email is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If the email contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

(2) The personal data of the data subject shall be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. For personal data sent by email, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.
The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at most.
If the user contacts us by email, they can object to the storage of their personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued.
Data may also be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator 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 there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

4. Right of access

You can request confirmation from us as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed by us. If such processing has taken place, you can request the following information from us:
(1) the purposes for which the personal data is processed;
(2) the categories of personal data that are processed;
(3) the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been or will be disclosed;
(4) the planned duration of storage of the personal data concerning you or, if specific information on this is not possible, criteria for determining the duration of storage;

(6) the existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority;
(7) all available information on the origin of the data if the personal data is not collected from the data subject;
(8) the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, in accordance with Art. 22 paras. 1 and 4 GDPR and – at least in these cases – meaningful information on the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject.
You have the right to request information as to whether the personal data concerning you is transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you can request to be informed about the appropriate guarantees in accordance with Art. Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.

5. Right to rectification

You have a right of rectification and/or completion vis-à-vis us if the processed personal data concerning you is incorrect or incomplete. We will make the correction immediately.

6. Right to restriction of processing

Under the following conditions, you may request the restriction of the processing of personal data concerning you if:
(1) you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
(2) the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of its use instead;
(3) we no longer need the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but it is required by you for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or
(4) you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and it has not yet been established whether our legitimate reasons outweigh your reasons.
If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, this data – apart from its storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense 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 in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by us before the restriction is lifted.

7. Right to erasure

a) Obligation to delete
You can demand that we delete the personal data concerning you immediately if one of the following reasons applies:
(1) The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
(2) You revoke your consent on which the processing is based in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
(3) You object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.
(4) The personal data concerning you has been processed unlawfully.
(5) The deletion of personal data concerning you is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which we are subject.
(6) The personal data concerning you has been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Art. 8 para. 1 GDPR.
b) Information to third parties
If we have made the personal data concerning you public and, according to Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR, we are obliged to erase personal data, we shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform data controllers which are processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, that personal data.
c) Exceptions
The right to erasure does not exist if the processing is necessary
(1) to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
(2) for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which we are subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us;
(3) for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h and i and Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR;
(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing, or
(5) for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

8. Right to information

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing vis-à-vis us, we are obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.
You have the right to be informed about these recipients.

9. Right to data portability

You have the right to obtain the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from us, provided that
(1) the processing is based on consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR or on a contract in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR and
(2) the processing is carried out by automated means. In exercising this right, you also have the right to ensure that the personal data concerning you is transferred directly by us to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be impaired by this.
The right to data portability does not apply to the 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 us.

10. Right of revocation and objection

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
We will then no longer process the personal data concerning you unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes. Notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you have the option of exercising your right to object in connection with the use of information society services by means of automated procedures that involve technical specifications.

Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

11. 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 violates the GDPR.
The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been submitted shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy in accordance with Art. 78 GDPR.

12. Confidentiality

(1) We shall maintain confidentiality about all information to be treated confidentially which has come to our knowledge within the framework of the contractual relationship and shall only use this information towards third parties – for whatever purpose – with the prior consent of the respective other contractual partner. The information to be treated as confidential includes information expressly designated as confidential by the party providing the information and information whose confidentiality is clearly evident from the circumstances of its provision. Specifically, your personal data and the data used must be treated confidentially by us if we become aware of it.
(2) The obligations under para. 1 shall not apply to such pieces of information for which we can prove that they
> were known to us or generally accessible before the date of receipt;
> were known or generally accessible to the public before the date of receipt;
> become known or generally accessible to the public after the date of receipt, without us being responsible for this.
(3) Public declarations by the parties on cooperation shall only be made by prior mutual agreement.
