When you use this website, various personal data are collected.

Personal data:

These are all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as the “data subject”); a natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or to one or more specific characteristics that express the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person;

This privacy policy explains which data we collect and how we use it. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

 

How do we collect your data?

Your data is collected, on the one hand, when you provide it to us. This may include, for example, data that you enter into a contact form.

Other data is automatically collected by our IT systems when you visit the website. This primarily includes technical data (e.g., web browser, operating system, or the time of page access). The collection of this data occurs automatically as soon as you enter our website.

When you visit our website, your browsing behavior may be statistically analyzed. This is mainly done using cookies and so-called analytics programs. The analysis of your browsing behavior is usually anonymous. You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools.

Detailed information on this can be found in the following privacy policy.

 

What do we use your data for?

We use your data to provide our products and services (fulfillment of contractual purposes), as well as to analyze visitor and access numbers, and to optimize and protect our website.

With your consent, we use the data you provide to respond to your contact request/message.

 

Sharing of Data

Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed below.

We only share your personal data with third parties if:

  • You have given your explicit consent to this in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR,
  • the transfer is necessary in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures carried out at your request.
  • in the event that there is a legal obligation for the transfer in accordance with Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.
  • the transfer is necessary in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for asserting, exercising, or defending legal claims, and there is no reason to believe that you have an overriding legitimate interest in not disclosing your data.

 

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the change in the browser address line from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser’s address bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

However, we point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., communication by email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.

 

Data Subject Rights

You have the right:

  • In accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR, you have the right to withdraw your consent given to us at any time. This means that we may no longer continue the data processing based on this consent in the future;

  • In accordance with Art. 18 GDPR, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data, where the accuracy of the data is contested by you, the processing is unlawful but you refuse its deletion, and we no longer need the data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or you have objected to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR;
  • In accordance with Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, or to request the transfer of these data to another controller;

Right to Object

If your personal data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR, insofar as there are reasons arising from your particular situation, or if the objection is directed against direct marketing.

2. Data Collection on Our Website

Server Log Files

The provider of the site automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

The stored data is evaluated exclusively for internal statistical purposes and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person.

The aforementioned data is processed by us for the following purposes:

  • Ensuring a proper and smooth connection to the website
  • Ensuring the use of the website
  • Evaluation of system security and stability

Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR constitutes the legal basis for data collection.

The legitimate interest arises from the described purpose of data collection.

You can visit our website without providing personal information. In no case do we use the collected data to draw conclusions about your person.

 

Cookies

We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files that your browser automatically creates and stores on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website.

Cookies do not harm your device and do not contain viruses, trojans, or other malware. The cookie stores information related to the specific device used. This does not mean that we immediately know your identity. We use cookies to statistically track the use of our website and to optimize our offerings for you. Most browsers automatically accept cookies. You can configure your browser to prevent cookies from being stored on your computer or to always notify you before a new cookie is created. Completely disabling cookies may prevent you from using all functions of our website.

The legal basis for the use of cookies on our website is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Contact Form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact information you provide, will be stored by us for the purpose of handling the request and in case of follow-up questions. We do not share these data without your consent.

Processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore carried out exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time by sending a simple email to us. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the point of withdrawal remains unaffected.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after completion of your inquiry). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
