Privacy policy

As a user of our website, this privacy policy provides you with all the necessary information on how, to what extent and for what purpose we or third-party providers collect data from you and use it. The collection and use of your data are strictly according to the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the Digital Services Act (DDG). We feel particularly committed to the confidentiality of your personal data and therefore work strictly within the limits set by the law. The collection of this personal data is done on a voluntary basis, if this is possible for us. We also only pass this data on to third parties with your express consent. We ensure a high level of security for particularly confidential data such as payment transactions or with regard to your inquiries to us by using SSL encryption. However, we would like to take this opportunity to point out the general dangers of the use of the internet over which we have no control. Especially in e-mail traffic, your data is not secure without further precautions and can possibly be captured by third parties.

Provision of chargeable services

If you wish to use the chargeable services offered on our website, we may need to collect further data from you for billing purposes and for security reasons. As a rule, this involves your name, a valid e-mail address and, if applicable, your address and telephone number, as well as other information depending on the individual case. This may also involve content that allows us to verify the data provided, such as your ownership with regard to the e-mail address provided. For legal reasons, we must ensure that you actually wish to receive the services offered and that we can properly invoice you for the service. We work in payment transactions to secure your data with the encryption standard SSL, recognizable by the browser line "https://".

​

Collection of access data

The delivery and presentation of content via our website technically requires the collection of certain data. When you access our website, these so-called server log files are collected by us or the provider of the web space. These log files do not allow any conclusions to be drawn about you and your person. The corresponding information consists of the name of the website, the file, the current date, the amount of data, the web browser and its version, the operating system used, the domain name of your Internet provider, the referrer URL as the page from which you accessed our site, and the corresponding IP address. We use this data for the presentation and delivery of our content as well as for statistical purposes. The information supports the provision and continuous improvement of our offer. We also reserve the right to check the aforementioned data retrospectively should there be any suspicion of illegal use of our offer.

​

Third-party content and services

The offer on our website may also include content, services and performances from other providers that complement our offer. Examples of such offers are maps from Google maps, YouTube videos or graphic representations of third parties. Calling up these third-party services regularly requires the transmission of your IP address. This makes it possible for these providers to perceive your user IP address and also to store it. We make every effort to include only those third-party providers that use IP addresses solely for the purpose of delivering content. However, we have no influence on which third-party provider stores the IP address, if any. This storage may serve statistical purposes, for example. If we become aware of storage processes by third-party providers, we will immediately inform our users of this fact. In this context, please also note the specific privacy statements of individual third-party providers and service providers whose services we use on our website. You will also find them in this privacy policy.

​

Newsletter

On our website you can register to receive our newsletter. For this purpose, we need your e-mail address. In addition, we have to check, in compliance with the relevant legal regulations, whether you are actually the owner of the specified e-mail address and would like to receive the newsletter. We therefore collect information that makes such verification possible. The data collected in this context is used for sending and receiving newsletters. They have no other purpose and are not passed on to third parties. No other data is collected from our side apart from the information necessary for sending the newsletter. Since the newsletter dispatch and reception is dependent on your consent, you can revoke this consent to the collection and storage of your data at any time without reasoning. To do so, use the "unsubscribe” link provided in the newsletter.

​

Personal data

In the context of data avoidance and data economy, we collect personal data only to the extent and for the duration necessary for the use of our website or as required by law. We take the protection of your personal data seriously and strictly adhere to the relevant legal regulations and this privacy policy when collecting and processing personal data. If the purpose of the data collection ceases to apply or the end of the legal storage period is reached, the collected data will be blocked or deleted. As a rule, our website can be used without disclosing personal data. If we collect personal data - such as your name, address or e-mail address - this data collection is voluntary. Without your explicit consent, this data will not be disclosed to third parties. Please note that data is generally not always transmitted securely on the Internet. Especially in e-mail traffic, protection during data exchange cannot be guaranteed.

​

Server log files

The server log files are anonymized data files that are collected when you access our website. This information does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about you personally, but is indispensable for technical reasons for the delivery and presentation of our content. Furthermore, they serve for statistical purposes and for the continuous optimization of our content. Typical log files are the date and time of access, the amount of data, the browser used for access and its version, the operating system used, the domain name of your provider, the page from which you came to our site (referrer URL) and your IP address. Log files also enable a precise check in the event of suspicion of illegal use of our website.

​

SSL encryption

Our website uses SSL encryption when transmitting confidential or personal content of our users. This encryption is activated, for example, during the processing of payment transactions and when you send us inquiries via our website. Please make sure that SSL encryption is activated for corresponding activities on your part. The use of encryption is easy to recognize: The display in your browser bar will change from "http://" to "https://". Data encrypted via SSL cannot be read by third parties. Only transmit your confidential information when SSL encryption is activated and contact us in case of doubt.

​

Objection advertising e-mails

In the context of the legal imprint obligation we must publish our contact data. These are sometimes used by third parties to send unsolicited advertising and information. We hereby object to any sending of advertising material of any kind not expressly authorized by us. Furthermore, we expressly reserve the right to take legal action against the unwanted and unsolicited sending of advertising material. This applies in particular to so-called spam e-mails, spam letters and spam faxes. We would like to point out that the unauthorized transmission of advertising material can affect both competition law, civil law and criminal law. Spam e-mails and spam faxes in particular can lead to high claims for damages if they disrupt business operations by overfilling mailboxes or fax machines.

Use of Facebook Remarketing

This website uses the remarketing function "Custom Audiences" of Facebook Inc. ("Facebook"). This function is used to present interest-based advertisements ("Facebook Ads") to visitors of this website when visiting the social network Facebook. For this purpose, the remarketing tag of Facebook has been implemented on this website. Via this tag, a direct connection to the Facebook servers is established when visiting the website.

​

Google AdWords

We use Google AdWords on our website, an online advertising program from Google Inc. that also uses conversion tracking. With this tool, Google AdWords sets a cookie on your PC when you come to our website via a Google ad. The cookie is no longer valid after 30 days. It does not serve any personal traceability. If you visit our website as a user and the cookie is still working, it will be recognizable to us together with Google that you clicked on the corresponding ad and were redirected to our site. In the process, a different cookie is assigned to each Google AdWords customer. Cookies are thus not traceable via the websites of AdWords customers. Conversion statistics for AdWords customers are created with the data collected by conversion cookies. As customers, we thus learn the total number of users who responded to our ad and were then redirected to a web page that was tagged with a conversion tracking tag. We do not receive any information during this process that would allow us to personally identify you as a user. If you reject the tracking procedure, the Google conversion tracking cookie can be deactivated via your Internet browser. If necessary, use the help function of the browser for further information. You can find out more about Google's privacy policy at www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

Use of Google Analytics

We use the web analysis service Google Analytics from Google Inc. on our website, which uses cookies. These are text files that are stored on your PC and allow an analysis of your user behavior in relation to our website. The cookies generate information that is transferred to a Google server. These servers are usually located in the United States, but follow agreements for the use of the European Economic Area and shorten your IP address before transmission to the United States. Only in exceptional cases is the IP address shortened only after transmission to the USA. Google evaluates the transmitted information and provides further services for us website operators in this context. In this context, the determined IP address is not merged with other Google services. You can prevent cookies from being stored on your computer by changing your browser settings. However, this may result in display and functional restrictions when using our website. A browser plug-in also prevents the collection and use of the data generated by the cookies. You can download it from the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
