Privacy Policy

Personal data (hereinafter mostly referred to as “data”) is processed by us only to the extent necessary and for the purpose of providing a functional and user-friendly website, including its content and the services offered there.

Pursuant to Art. 4 No. 1 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, i.e. the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter “GDPR”), “processing” means any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

With the following privacy policy, we inform you in particular about the nature, scope, purpose, duration and legal basis of the processing of personal data, insofar as we decide either alone or jointly with others on the purposes and means of processing. In addition, we inform you below about the third-party components we use for optimisation purposes and to increase the quality of use, insofar as this results in third parties processing data under their own responsibility.

Our privacy policy is structured as follows:

I. Information about us as the controller
II. Rights of users and data subjects
III. Information on data processing

II. Rights of users and data subjects

With regard to the data processing described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right

  • to obtain confirmation as to whether data concerning them is being processed, to receive information about the processed data, to obtain further information about the data processing, and to receive copies of the data (see also Art. 15 GDPR);
  • to rectification or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data (see also Art. 16 GDPR);
  • to the immediate erasure of data concerning them (see also Art. 17 GDPR), or, alternatively, insofar as further processing is necessary pursuant to Art. 17(3) GDPR, to restriction of processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR;
  • to receive the data concerning them that they have provided and to have this data transmitted to other providers/controllers (see also Art. 20 GDPR);
  • to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority if they believe that data concerning them is being processed by the provider in violation of data protection provisions (see also Art. 77 GDPR).

In addition, the provider is obliged to inform all recipients to whom data has been disclosed by the provider of any rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing carried out on the basis of Articles 16, 17(1), 18 GDPR. However, this obligation does not apply insofar as such notification is impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Without prejudice to this, the user has a right to information about these recipients.

Users and data subjects also have the right, pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR, to object to the future processing of data concerning them, insofar as the data is processed by the provider in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purposes of direct advertising is permitted.

III. Information on data processing

Your data processed when using our website will be erased or blocked as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies, provided that no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion and no different information is provided below for individual processing procedures.

Cookie Manager

To obtain consent for the use of technically non-essential cookies on the website, the provider uses a cookie manager.

When the website is accessed, a cookie containing the settings information is stored on the user’s device so that, on a subsequent visit, consent does not have to be requested again.

The cookie is required in order to obtain the user’s legally compliant consent.

The user can prevent or end the installation of cookies through the settings of their browser.

Cookies

a) Session cookies

We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your device by the internet browser you use. Through these cookies, certain information about you is processed to an individual extent, such as your browser or location data or your IP address.

This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as it enables, for example, the display of our website in different languages or the provision of a shopping cart function.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies process data for the initiation or performance of a contract.

If the processing does not serve the initiation or performance of a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

These session cookies are deleted when you close your internet browser.

b) Third-party cookies

Where applicable, our website also uses cookies from partner companies with whom we work for the purposes of advertising, analysis, or the functionalities of our website.

Please refer to the information below for details, in particular regarding the purposes and legal bases for processing such third-party cookies.

c) Removal option

You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by adjusting the settings of your internet browser. You can also delete cookies that have already been stored at any time. However, the steps and measures required depend on the specific internet browser you use. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation of your internet browser or contact its manufacturer or support. In the case of so-called Flash cookies, processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings. Instead, you must change the setting of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the specific Flash player you use. If you have any questions, please also use the help function or documentation of your Flash player or contact the manufacturer or user support.

If you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may, however, mean that not all functions of our website can be used to their full extent.

Contact requests / Contact option

If you contact us via contact form or email, the data you provide will be used to process your request. Providing the data is necessary to process and answer your request—without it, we cannot answer your request or can only answer it to a limited extent.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Your data will be deleted once your request has been conclusively answered, provided that no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion, e.g. in the case of any subsequent contract processing.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to our free newsletter, the data requested for this purpose—i.e. your email address and, optionally, your name and address—will be transmitted to us. At the same time, we store the IP address of the internet connection from which you access our website as well as the date and time of your registration. As part of the further registration process, we will obtain your consent to receive the newsletter, describe the content in detail and refer to this privacy policy. We use the data collected exclusively for sending the newsletter—it is therefore not passed on to third parties.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at any time with effect for the future in accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR. To do so, you simply need to inform us of your revocation or click the unsubscribe link included in every newsletter.

User contributions, comments and reviews

We offer you the opportunity to publish questions, answers, opinions or reviews on our website, hereinafter referred to simply as “contributions”. If you make use of this offer, we will process and publish your contribution, the date and time of submission, and any pseudonym you may have used.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future in accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR. To do so, you simply need to inform us of your revocation.

In addition, we also process your IP and email address. The IP address is processed because we have a legitimate interest in initiating or supporting further steps if your contribution infringes the rights of third parties and/or is otherwise unlawful.

In this case, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in any necessary legal defence.

To promote our products and services and to communicate with interested parties or customers, we maintain a company presence on the Facebook platform.

Meta Platforms Ireland Limited may also set cookies to process the data.

If the user does not agree with this processing, it is possible to prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting the browser settings. Stored cookies can also be deleted at any time. The settings for this depend on the respective browser. In the case of Flash cookies, processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings, but by changing the settings of the Flash player. If the user prevents or restricts the installation of cookies, this may mean that not all functions of Facebook can be used to their full extent.
