Data Processing

1. access data and hosting

You can visit our website without providing any personal data. Each time a website is accessed, the web server only automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access.

2. data collection and use for contract processing

We collect personal data when you provide it to us as part of your order or when you contact us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail). Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we need the data to process your contact and you cannot send the contact without providing it. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 DSGVO (GDPR)

3. Cookies and web analysis

In order to make visiting our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, to display suitable products or for market research, we use so-called cookies on various pages. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a balancing of interests, in an optimized presentation of our offer in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR. Cookies are small text files that are automatically stored on your end device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted again at the end of the browser session, i.e. after you close your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your end device and enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit (persistent cookies). The duration of storage can be found in the overview in the cookie settings of your web browser. You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and decide individually whether to accept them or to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general. Each browser differs in the way it manages cookie settings. This is described in the help menu of each browser, which explains how you can change your cookie settings.
If you do not accept cookies, the functionality of our website may be restricted.

 

4. Web analysis with Matomo (formerly Piwik)

Our website uses the web analysis service Matomo. Matomo is an open source solution.

Matomo uses “cookies.” These are small text files that your web browser stores on your end device and that enable website usage to be analyzed. Information generated by cookies about the use of our website is stored on our server. Your IP address is anonymized before it is stored.

Matomo cookies remain on your device until you delete them.

Matomo cookies are set on the basis of § 25 TTDSG . As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in the anonymized analysis of user behaviour in order to optimize both our website and, if necessary, advertising.

The information stored in the Matomo cookie about the use of this website is not passed on. The setting of cookies by your web browser can be prevented. However, some functions of our website may be restricted as a result.

You can deactivate the storage and use of your data here. Your browser sets an opt-out cookie that prevents the storage of Matomo usage data. If you delete your cookies, the Matomo opt-out cookie will also be removed. When you visit our website again, the opt-out cookie must be set again to prevent the storage and use of your data.

6. use of plugins – YouTube

A YouTube plugin is used on our website.

Our website uses YouTube plugins to integrate and display video content. The provider of the video portal is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When a page with an integrated YouTube plugin is accessed, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells YouTube which of our pages you have visited.

YouTube can assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile if you are logged into your YouTube account. You can prevent this by logging out beforehand.

The use of YouTube is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. The processing of personal data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 subpara. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent).

Details on the handling of user data can be found in YouTube’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy
