2. GENERAL INFORMATION ON DATA PROCESSING

When using this web­site, per­so­nal data may be pro­ces­sed. The data pro­tec­tion term “per­so­nal data” refers to all infor­ma­tion that rela­tes to a spe­ci­fic or iden­ti­fia­ble per­son. The IP address can also be per­so­nal data. An IP address is assi­gned to every device con­nec­ted to the inter­net by the inter­net pro­vi­der so that it can send and receive data. When you use the web­site, we coll­ect infor­ma­tion that you pro­vide yours­elf. We also auto­ma­ti­cally coll­ect cer­tain infor­ma­tion about your use of the web­site during your visit to the website. 

We pro­cess per­so­nal data in com­pli­ance with the rele­vant data pro­tec­tion regu­la­ti­ons, in par­ti­cu­lar the GDPR and the BDSG. Data pro­ces­sing by us only takes place on the basis of legal per­mis­sion. When using this web­site, we only pro­cess per­so­nal data if the pro­ces­sing is neces­sary to pro­tect our legi­ti­mate inte­rests or the legi­ti­mate inte­rests of a third party, pro­vi­ded that your inte­rests or fun­da­men­tal rights and free­doms that require the pro­tec­tion of per­so­nal data do not pre­vail (Art. 6 para. 1 sen­tence 1 f GDPR). 

3. DURATION OF THE SPEICHEARING

Unless other­wise sta­ted in the fol­lo­wing infor­ma­tion, we only store the data for as long as is neces­sary to achieve the pur­pose of pro­ces­sing or to ful­fill our con­trac­tual or legal obli­ga­ti­ons. Such sta­tu­tory reten­tion obli­ga­ti­ons may arise in par­ti­cu­lar from com­mer­cial or tax law regulations. 

4. TECHNICAL SERVICE PROVIDERS

Unless other­wise sta­ted in the fol­lo­wing infor­ma­tion, the data is pro­ces­sed on the ser­vers of tech­ni­cal ser­vice pro­vi­ders com­mis­sio­ned by us for this pur­pose. These ser­vice pro­vi­ders pro­cess the data only in accordance with express ins­truc­tions and are con­trac­tually obli­ged to gua­ran­tee ade­quate tech­ni­cal and orga­niza­tio­nal mea­su­res for data protection. 

5. PROCESSING OF SERVER LOG FILES

When using our web­site for purely infor­ma­tio­nal pur­po­ses, gene­ral infor­ma­tion that your brow­ser trans­mits to our ser­ver is initi­ally pro­ces­sed auto­ma­ti­cally (i.e. not via regis­tra­tion). By default, this includes: brow­ser type/version, ope­ra­ting sys­tem used, page acces­sed, the pre­viously visi­ted page (refer­rer URL), IP address, date and time of the ser­ver request and HTTP sta­tus code. The pro­ces­sing is neces­sary for the pro­vi­sion of our web­site and is car­ried out to pro­tect our legi­ti­mate inte­rests. It is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sen­tence 1 f GDPR. 

6. CONTACT OPTIONS AND INQUIRIES

Our web­site con­ta­ins a cont­act form which you can use to send us mes­sa­ges. All data fields marked as man­da­tory are requi­red to pro­cess your request. If you do not pro­vide this data, we will not be able to pro­cess your request. The pro­vi­sion of fur­ther data is vol­un­t­ary. Alter­na­tively, you can also send us a mes­sage via the cont­act e‑mail. We pro­cess the data for the pur­pose of ans­we­ring your request. The legal basis for data pro­ces­sing is Art. 6 para. 1 sen­tence 1 b GDPR. 

7. COOKIES

We use coo­kies on our web­site. Coo­kies are small text files that are stored by your brow­ser when you visit a web­site. This iden­ti­fies the brow­ser used and can be reco­gni­zed by our web server. 

In par­ti­cu­lar, we use per­sis­tent coo­kies. These coo­kies are auto­ma­ti­cally dele­ted after a spe­ci­fied period, which may vary depen­ding on the coo­kie. If this use of coo­kies results in the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data, this is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sen­tence 1 f GDPR. This pro­ces­sing ser­ves our legi­ti­mate inte­rest in making our web­site more user-fri­endly, effec­tive and secure.
You can delete the coo­kies in the secu­rity set­tings of your brow­ser at any time. You can gene­rally object to the use of coo­kies through your brow­ser settings. 

The Fede­ral Office for Infor­ma­tion Secu­rity pro­vi­des fur­ther infor­ma­tion on this at www.bsi-fuer-buerger.de.

8. GOOGLE MAPS

We use the “Google Maps” ser­vice on our web­site, which is pro­vi­ded by third-party pro­vi­der Google LLC (1600 Amphi­theatre Park­way, Moun­tain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). It is tech­ni­cally neces­sary to pro­cess your IP address so that the con­tent can be sent to your brow­ser. Your IP address is the­r­e­fore trans­mit­ted to the respec­tive third-party provider. 

This data pro­ces­sing is car­ried out to pro­tect our legi­ti­mate inte­rests in the opti­miza­tion and eco­no­mic ope­ra­tion of our web­site and is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sen­tence 1 f GDPR. 

The Java­Script pro­gramming lan­guage is regu­larly used to inte­grate the ser­vice. You can the­r­e­fore object to data pro­ces­sing by deac­ti­vat­ing the exe­cu­tion of Java­Script in your brow­ser or instal­ling a Java­Script blo­cker. Please note that this may result in func­tional rest­ric­tions on the web­site.
Google is cer­ti­fied under the Pri­vacy Shield Agree­ment and thus offers a gua­ran­tee of com­pli­ance with Euro­pean data pro­tec­tion law: www.privacyshield.gov

9. WITHDRAWAL OF CONSENT

If you have given us sepa­rate con­sent to pro­cess your data, you can with­draw this con­sent at any time in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR. Such a revo­ca­tion does not affect the lega­lity of the pro­ces­sing that was car­ried out on the basis of the con­sent until the revocation.

12. EXTERNAL LINKS

Our web­site offers you exter­nal links within our part­ner refe­ren­ces.
