If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and \u00a7 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time. <\/p>\n\n We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the aforementioned service.

This enables Cloudflare to analyze the data traffic between your browser and our website and to serve as a filter between our servers and potentially malicious internet traffic. Cloudflare may also use cookies or other technologies to recognize internet users, but these are used solely for the purpose described here. <\/p>\n\n The use of Cloudflare is based on our legitimate interest in providing our website as error-free and securely as possible (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).<\/p>\n\n Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https:\/\/www.cloudflare.com\/privacypolicy\/<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n Further information on security and data protection at Cloudflare can be found here: https:\/\/www.cloudflare.com\/privacypolicy\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n The company is certified under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the USA, which aims to ensure compliance with European data protection standards for data processing in the USA. Every company certified under the DPF commits to adhering to these data protection standards. Further information on this can be obtained from the provider at the following link: https:\/\/www.dataprivacyframework.gov\/s\/participant-search\/participant-detail?contact=true&id=a2zt0000000GnZKAA0&status=Active<\/a> <\/p>\n\n We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the aforementioned service. This is a contract required by data protection law, which ensures that it processes the personal data of our website visitors only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR. <\/p>\n\n The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy. <\/p>\n\n When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens. <\/p>\n\n We point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) can have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data from third-party access is not possible. <\/p>\n\n The responsible party for data processing on this website is:<\/p>\n\n Gunnar Sieg Phone: +49-8122-9598208 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.).<\/p>\n\n Unless a more specific storage period has been stated within this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing ceases to apply. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, provided we have no other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, deletion will occur after these reasons cease to apply. <\/p>\n\n If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, insofar as special categories of data pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR are processed. In the event of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information in your end device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), the data processing is also carried out on the basis of \u00a7 25 para. 1 TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required to fulfill the contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if this is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. Data processing may also be based on our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR must take place. Information on the relevant legal bases in each individual case is provided in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy. <\/p>\n\n Among other things, we use tools from companies based in third countries with inadequate data protection, as well as 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 these countries and processed there. We point out that in third countries with inadequate data protection, a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed. <\/p>\n\n We point out that the USA, as a safe third country, generally has a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU. Data transfer to the USA is therefore permissible if the recipient holds a certification under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF) or has appropriate additional guarantees. Information on transfers to third countries, including the data recipients, can be found in this Privacy Policy. <\/p>\n\n As part of our business activities, we work together with various external bodies. In some cases, it is also necessary to transfer personal data to these external bodies. We only pass on personal data to external bodies if this is necessary in the context of fulfilling a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. passing on data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR or if another legal basis permits the transfer of data. When using processors, we only pass on our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid contract for order processing. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded. <\/p>\n\n Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke any consent already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation. <\/p>\n\n IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 ABS. 1 LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ARTICLE 21(1) GDPR). <\/p>\n\n IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ART. 21 PARA. 2 GDPR). <\/p>\n\n In the event of GDPR violations, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies. <\/p>\n\n You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to yourself or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if it is technically feasible. <\/p>\n\n Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. For this and other questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time. <\/p>\n\n You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases: <\/p>\n\n If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data \u2013 apart from its storage \u2013 may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.<\/p>\n\n For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address bar of the browser changes from “http:\/\/” to “https:\/\/” and by the padlock symbol in your browser bar. <\/p>\n\n When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.<\/p>\n\n If, after concluding a paid contract, there is an obligation to transmit your payment data to us (e.g., account number for direct debit authorization), this data is required for payment processing.<\/p>\n\n Payment transactions via common payment methods (Visa\/MasterCard, direct debit) are carried out exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address bar of the browser changes from “http:\/\/” to “https:\/\/” and by the padlock symbol in your browser bar. <\/p>\n\n With encrypted communication, your payment data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.<\/p>\n\n The use of contact data published within the scope of the imprint obligation for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby objected to. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example, via spam emails. <\/p>\n\n Our websites use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small data packets and do not cause any damage to your device. They are stored on your device either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies). Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit ends. Persistent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or an automatic deletion occurs through your web browser. <\/p>\n\n Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services). <\/p>\n\n Cookies have various functions. Numerous cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to evaluate user behavior or for advertising purposes. <\/p>\n\n Cookies that are essential for the electronic communication process, for providing certain functions you request (e.g., for the shopping cart), or for optimizing the website (e.g., cookies for web audience measurement) (necessary cookies) are stored in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically flawless and optimized provision of its services. If consent for the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively based on this consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TTDSG); consent can be revoked at any time. <\/p>\n\n You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set, to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to reject cookies for specific situations or generally, and to enable automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website. <\/p>\n\n This privacy policy details which cookies and services are used on this website.<\/p>\n\n This website uses Usercentrics’ consent technology to obtain your consent for storing certain cookies on your device or for using certain technologies, and to document this in compliance with data protection regulations. The provider of this technology is Usercentrics GmbH, Sendlinger Stra\u00dfe 7, 80331 Munich, Website: https:\/\/usercentrics.com\/de\/<\/a> (hereinafter “Usercentrics”). <\/p>\n\n When you visit our website, the following personal data is transferred to Usercentrics:<\/p>\n\n Furthermore, Usercentrics stores a cookie in your browser to link your granted consents or their revocation to you. The data collected in this way is stored until you request its deletion, delete the Usercentrics cookie yourself, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Mandatory legal retention periods remain unaffected. <\/p>\n\n The Usercentrics banner on this website was configured with the help of eRecht24. You can recognize this by the eRecht24 logo appearing in the banner. To display the eRecht24 logo in the banner, a connection to the eRecht24 image server is established. Your IP address is also transmitted in this process, but it is only stored in anonymized form in the server logs. The eRecht24 image server is located in Germany with a German provider. The banner itself is provided exclusively by Usercentrics. <\/p>\n\n Usercentrics is used to obtain the legally required consents for the use of certain technologies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR. <\/p>\n\n We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the aforementioned service. This is a contract required by data protection law, which ensures that it processes the personal data of our website visitors only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR. <\/p>\n\n If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your information from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and for any follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent. <\/p>\n\n The processing of this data is carried out based on Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, provided that your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR) if requested; consent can be revoked at any time. <\/p>\n\n The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions \u2013 especially retention periods \u2013 remain unaffected. <\/p>\n\n If you contact us by email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not share this data without your consent. <\/p>\n\n The processing of this data is carried out based on Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, provided that your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR) if requested; consent can be revoked at any time. <\/p>\n\n The data you send us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions \u2013 especially statutory retention periods \u2013 remain unaffected. <\/p>\n\n We have integrated Google Forms on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter “Google”). <\/p>\n\n Google Forms allows us to create online forms to systematically collect messages, inquiries, and other input from our website visitors. All entries you make are processed on Google’s servers. Google Forms stores a cookie in your browser that contains a unique ID (NID cookie). This cookie stores various information, such as your language settings. <\/p>\n\n The use of Google Forms is based on our legitimate interest in determining your request in the most user-friendly way possible (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively based on Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time. <\/p>\n\n The data you enter in the form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions \u2013 especially retention periods \u2013 remain unaffected. <\/p>\n\n For more information, please refer to Google’s privacy policy at https:\/\/policies.google.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n The company is certified under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF).

This is a contract required by data protection law, which ensures that it processes the personal data of our website visitors only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR. <\/p>\n\n We use chatbots to communicate with you. Chatbots can respond to your questions and other input without human assistance. To do this, chatbots analyze additional data besides your input to provide suitable answers (e.g., names, email addresses and other contact details, customer numbers and other identifiers, orders, and chat histories). Furthermore, your IP address, log files, location information, and other metadata can be collected via the chatbot. This data is stored on the chatbot provider’s servers. <\/p>\n\n Based on the collected data, user profiles can be created. Additionally, the data can be used for displaying interest-based advertising, provided that other legal requirements (especially consent) are met. For this purpose, chatbots can be linked with analysis and advertising tools. <\/p>\n\n The collected data can also be used to improve our chatbots and their response behavior (machine learning).<\/p>\n\n The data you enter during communication will remain with us or the chatbot operator until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions \u2013 especially retention periods \u2013 remain unaffected. <\/p>\n\n The legal basis for the use of chatbots is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, provided that the chatbot is used for contract initiation or in the context of contract fulfillment. If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively based on Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time. In all other cases, the use is based on our legitimate interest in the most effective customer communication possible (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). <\/p>\n\n We use Hubspot CRM on this website.

The personal data collected in this way can be evaluated and used for communication with potential customers or for marketing measures (e.g., newsletter mailings).

Since the use of the registration function is voluntary and users can decide on the respective access options themselves, no conflicting overriding rights of the data subjects are apparent. <\/p>\n\n The company is certified under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the USA, which aims to ensure compliance with European data protection standards for data processing in the USA.

This site uses the eRecht24 Safe Sharing Tool<\/a> for this purpose. This tool only establishes direct contact between the networks and users when the user actively clicks on one of these buttons. Clicking the button constitutes consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TTDSG. This consent can be revoked at any time with future effect. <\/p>\n\n This tool does not automatically transfer user data to the operators of these platforms.

The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. However, according to Facebook, the collected data is also transferred to the USA and other third countries. <\/p>\n\n An overview of the Facebook social media elements can be found here: https:\/\/developers.facebook.com\/docs\/plugins\/?locale=de_DE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n When the social media element is active, a direct connection is established between your device and the Facebook server. Facebook thereby receives the information that you have visited this website with your IP address. If you click the Facebook “Like button” while logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of this website to your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate your visit to this website with your user account.
