§ 3 Principles of data processing
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, information such as your name, age, address, telephone number, date of birth, e-mail address, IP address or user behavior. Information that we cannot link to you personally (or can only do so with disproportionate effort), e.g. by anonymizing the information, is not personal data.
The processing of personal data (e.g. the collection, retrieval, use, storage or transmission) always requires a legal basis or your consent. Processed personal data will be deleted as soon as the purpose of the processing has been achieved and there are no longer any statutory retention obligations to be complied with.
If we process your personal data for the provision of certain services, we will inform you below about the specific processes, the scope and purpose of the data processing, the legal basis for the processing and the respective storage period. We use DomainFactory (www.df.eu) as a subcontractor. This service provider hosts our website.
§ 4 Individual processing operations
1. provision and use of the website
a. Type and scope of data processing
When you access and use our website, we collect the personal data that your browser automatically transmits to our server. This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file. When you use our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure stability and security:
- IP address of the requesting computer

- Website from which the access is made (referrer URL)
- Browser used and, if applicable, the operating system of your computer, as well as the name of your access provider
b. Legal basis
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the aforementioned data processing. The processing of the aforementioned data is necessary for the provision of a website and thus serves to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company.
c. Storage period
As soon as the aforementioned data is no longer required to display the website, it will be deleted. 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. Consequently, the user has no option to object. Further storage may take place in individual cases if this is required by law.
2. contact options on our website

b. Legal basis
The permissibility of data collection is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, as there is a similar interest in establishing contact and communication between you and our company as well as a legitimate company interest in processing the above-mentioned data in order to be able to process your request.

The storage period of the data transmitted by you via the contact form is determined by the contractual or legal obligations for storage.

§ 7 Hyperlinks
Our website contains so-called hyperlinks to websites of other providers. If you activate these hyperlinks, you will be forwarded directly from our website to the website of the other provider.

We cannot accept any responsibility for the confidential handling of your data on these third-party websites, as we have no influence on whether these companies comply with data protection regulations. Please refer directly to these websites for information on how these companies handle your personal data.

- In accordance with Art. 18 GDPR, you can request the restriction of the processing of your personal data if the accuracy of the data is disputed by you, the processing is unlawful, we no longer need the data and you refuse to delete it because you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. You also have the right under Art. 18 GDPR if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR.
- In accordance with Art. 20 GDPR, you can request to receive your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or you can request that it be transferred to another controller.

If your personal data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR if there are reasons for this arising from your particular situation or if the objection is directed against direct advertising. In the case of direct advertising, you have a general right to object, which we will implement without you having to specify a particular situation.
§ 10 Data security and security measures
We are committed to protecting your privacy and treating your personal data confidentially. In order to prevent manipulation, loss or misuse of your data stored by us, we take extensive technical and organizational security precautions, which are regularly reviewed and adapted to technological progress. These include the use of recognized encryption methods. However, we would like to point out that due to the structure of the Internet, it is possible that the rules of data protection and the above-mentioned security measures may not be observed by other persons or institutions outside our area of responsibility. In particular, unencrypted data - e.g. when sent by e-mail - can be read by third parties. We have no technical influence on this. It is the responsibility of the user to protect the data provided by him/her against misuse through encryption or in any other way.
