When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., communication by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Information about the Responsible Party

Phone: Available upon request

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage Duration

Unless a more specific storage period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent for data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods). In the latter case, deletion will take place after these reasons no longer apply.

General Information on the Legal Basis for Data Processing

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data based on Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR if special categories of data under Art. 9 (1) GDPR are processed. In the case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR. If you consent to the storage of cookies or access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing is additionally based on § 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required for contract fulfillment or pre-contractual measures, we process your data based on Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if necessary to fulfill a legal obligation based on Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR.

The relevant legal bases for each individual case are provided in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Note on Data Transfer to Third Countries Not Covered by Data Protection Laws and Transfer to US Companies Not DPF-Certified

Among other tools, we use tools from companies based in third countries not covered by data protection laws and US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. We note that in third countries not covered by data protection laws, a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed.

We note that the USA is generally considered a safe third country with a data protection level comparable to the EU. Data transfer to the USA is permissible if the recipient is certified under the "EU-US Data Privacy Framework" (DPF) or has appropriate additional guarantees. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.

Recipients of Personal Data

In the course of our business activities, we collaborate with various external entities. This sometimes requires the transfer of personal data to these external entities. We only pass on personal data to external entities if necessary for contract fulfillment, legally required (e.g., tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the transfer. When using processors, we only transfer personal data of our customers based on a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent at any time. The legality of data processing carried out before revocation remains unaffected.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 (1) (E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING IS FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21 (1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Supervisory Authority

In the event of GDPR violations, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the member state of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. The right to complain exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
