Collection of general information when visiting our website
When you access our website, a cookie automatically collects information of a general nature. This information (server log files) contains, for example, the type of web browser and operating system used, the domain name of your internet service provider, or similar. This is all information which does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person.
This information is technically necessary so that the content which you have requested from our website can be provided correctly, and is mandatory when using the internet. It is specifically processed for the following purposes:
• to ensure trouble-free connection to our website,
• to ensure smooth use of our website,
• to evaluate system security and stability, as well as for
• additional administrative purposes.
The processing of your personal data is based on our legitimate interest for the purposes mentioned above for data collection. We do not use your information to draw conclusions about your person. The only recipient of the data is the responsible body and possibly the contract processor.
Anonymous information of this kind may be statistically evaluated by us in order to optimise our web presence and the underlying technology.
Cookies
Like many other websites, we also use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small text files which are transferred from a website server to your hard-drive. In this way, we automatically receive certain data such as IP address, browser and operating system used, and your internet connection.
Cookies cannot be used to start programs or transfer viruses to a computer. Using the information gained from the cookies we are able to simplify navigation and allow for the correct display of our website.
Under no circumstances is the data collected by us transferred to third parties or used to create a link with your personal data without your consent.
Of course, in principle, you can also view our website without cookies. Internet browsers are usually set to accept cookies. You can, however, deactivate use of cookies at any time via your browser settings. Please use the help function of your internet browser to learn how to change the settings. Please be aware that deactivation of cookies may mean that certain website features do not function.
SSL encryption
To protect the security of your data during transference, we use state-of-the-art encryption techniques (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS.
Newsletter
On the basis of your express consent, we regularly send you our newsletter or similar information material via email to your email address provided.
Your email address is all we need for you to receive the newsletter. When registering for our newsletter the data provided by you is only used for this purpose. Subscribers may be informed by email about circumstances which are relevant for this service or the registration (for example, changes to newsletter delivery or technical concerns).
We require a valid email address for effective registration. To check that the registration is being carried out by the owner of the email address, we use the “double opt-in” procedure. We log the newsletter order, the sending of a confirmation email and the receipt of the requested answer. Addition data is not collected. The data is used exclusively for the delivery of the newsletter and is not passed on to third parties.
You can revoke your consent to the storage of your personal data and its use for delivery of the newsletter at any time. Each newsletter contains a corresponding link. Furthermore, you are also able to unsubscribe directly on this website or communicate your request to us via the contact details provided at the bottom of this data protection notice.
Contact form
If you have questions of any kind and contact us via email or contact form, you will have provided us with your voluntary consent for these purposes. In this case a valid email address is required. This serves to allocate the inquiry and the subsequent answer. The specification of further details is optional. The details provided by you will be used for the processing of the inquiry and for any possible follow-up queries. As soon as your inquiry has been completed, your personal data is automatically deleted.
Use of Matomo
This website uses Matomo (formerly Piwik), an open source software for statistical analysis of user access. Matomo uses so-called cookies, i.e. text files which are stored on your computer and enable analysis of your use of the website.
The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is stored on a server in Germany.
The IP address is anonymised immediately after processing and before storage. You have the option of preventing installation of cookies by changing your browser software settings. Please be aware that changing these settings, may mean that some features of this website no longer function.
You can decide here whether explicit web analysis cookies may be stored in your browser to allow the collection and analysis of statistical data by the website provider. If you decide against this, please click the following link to store the Matomo deactivation cookie in your browser.
Social media online presence
We maintain an online presence within social networks and platforms in order to communicate with customers, users and interested parties active therein and to inform them of our services.
We draw your attention to the fact that in this way, user data may be processed outside the European Union. This may pose a risk to users in such that e.g. the enforcement of user rights may be hampered. We would like to make it known that US providers certified under the Privacy Shield are obligated to meet the data protection standards of the EU.
Furthermore, as a rule, user data is processed for market research and advertising purposes. User profiles are generated on the basis of user behaviour and the inferred interests of users. The user profiles can be used to influence targeted advertisements which may correspond with the user’s interests, both within and outside the platforms. It is generally for these purposes that cookies are stored on computers, in which the user behaviour and interests of the user may be stored. Moreover, in the user profiles, data may be stored separately from the user devices (particularly if the user is a member of the specific platform and is logged in to the platform).
Processing of the user’s personal data is carried out on the basis of our justified interests for providing effective information and communication with users in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO. If a provider requests that the user gives permission for data processing (i.e. their consent by checking a box or confirming by clicking a button) the legal basis of processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7 DSGVO.
For a detailed statement of each type of processing and the options for objection (Opt-Out), we refer you to the following links with details of the providers.
We also wish to draw your attention to the fact that in the case of requests for information and the enforcement of user rights, these can most effectively be enforced directly with the providers. It is only the providers who have access to the user data and can take any appropriate measures and provide information. However, we will be happy to help if you require any assistance in this.

Embedded YouTube videos
We embed YouTube videos on some of our websites. The corresponding plug-ins are operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. If you visit a page with a YouTube plug-in, a connection to the YouTube servers will be established. YouTube will be informed which pages you visit.

If a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies which collect information about user behaviour.
Anyone who has deactivated the storage of cookies for the Google Ad program can expect that there are no such cookies even when watching YouTube videos. YouTube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in the browser.
