Data privacy statement

The operators of these web pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and all other relevant data protection regulations as well as this data privacy statement.

The use of our website is usually possible without providing personal information. As far as personal data (for example name, address or email addresses) are collected on our web pages, this occurs, as far as possible, always on a voluntary basis. These data will not be disclosed to third parties without your explicit consent. No storage of personal data on servers outside of the EU takes place.
Please note that data transmission over the internet (for example, when communicating via email) may have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible.

Contact information
If you send us an inquiry via email, phone or the contact form, your details, including the contact details you provide, will be stored by us in order to process your request and for possible follow-up questions. We will not share this information without your consent. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in this case is the consent given by you in conjunction with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

Collection and storage of general data (server log files)
The provider of the web pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Browser type / browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Client version
  • Destination domain or the sub-websites, which are accessed via an accessing system on our website
  • The website from which an accessing system arrives on our website (so-called Referrer URL)
  • Host name, IP address and internet service provider of the accessing system
  • Method of access
  • Date and time of the server request


These data are not attributable to specific persons. A combination of these data with other data sources will not be made and no conclusions will be drawn on the data subjects. Rather, these data are required in order to (1) correctly deliver the contents of our website, (2) to optimize the content of our website and the advertising for it, (3) to ensure the long-term functioning of our IT systems and the technology of our website, and (4) to provide authorities and courts in the event of a cyberattack with the information necessary for law enforcement and danger defense, as well as for the pursuit of our legitimate interests and civil claims. These anonymously collected data and information are therefore evaluated by us only with the aim to increase the data privacy protection and data security in our company.

We reserve the right to check those data retrospectively, if we become aware of specific indications for an illegal use. Incidentally, the data will be erased at the latest after 14 calendar days.

Routine deletion and blocking of personal data
The controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of the storage or as provided for by the GDPR or another data protection regulation governing the controller.

If the storage purpose is no longer applicable or if a storage period prescribed by the GDPR or another applicable provision expires, the personal data will be blocked or erased as a matter of routine and in accordance with the statutory provisions.

Where personal data are processed by us for direct marketing purposes, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

If the decision (1) is required for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller or (2) if it is done with the express consent of the data subject, appropriate action will be taken by us to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express his or her own position and to contest the decision.
