Each time you access our website, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of access, transferred data volume and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access. These data are evaluated solely to improve our offering and to ensure that this website runs as smoothly as possible. The data cannot be traced back to you personally.
In accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Point (f) of the GDPR, this enables us to safeguard our justified interest in ensuring that our content is displayed properly – an interest which prevails when the interests of all parties are taken into account. All access data will be deleted at the latest seven days after your visit to the website ends.
Hosting services from a third-party provider
A third party provider, which we have commissioned for processing, provides us with hosting and display services for our website. This enables us to safeguard our justified interest in ensuring that our offering is displayed properly – an interest which prevails when the interests of all parties are taken into account. All data collected during your use of this website or in the contact form provided for this purpose, as described below, are processed on the third party’s servers. Data shall be processed on other servers only to the extent described here.
This service provider shall be based in Germany or within a country which is part of the European Union or the European Economic Area.
We collect personal data if you provide them voluntarily when contacting us or placing an order. Mandatory fields are mandatory because we require the data for the processing of contracts or your query, and without these data, we will not be able to process your order or respond when you contact us. The relevant entry forms indicate what data are collected. We use the data that you provide for processing contracts and your queries in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Point (b) of the GDPR. Once we have finished processing the contract, access to your data for further processing will be restricted and your data will be deleted as soon as the retention periods required under fiscal and other laws expire, unless you have explicitly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to make further use of your data in a manner which is permitted by law as set out in this Data Protection Statement.
We use cookies on various pages in order to make our website attractive, to allow the use of specific functions or for market research purposes. In accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Point (f) of the GDPR, this enables us to safeguard our justified interest in ensuring that our content is displayed properly – an interest which prevails when the interests of all parties are taken into account. Cookies are small text files which are automatically stored on your end device. Some of the cookies that we use (“session cookies”) are deleted at the end of the browser session, i.e., when you close your browser.

Use of Google (Universal) Analytics for web analyse
If you have given your consent in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Point (a) of the GDPR, this website will use Google (Universal) Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google LLC (www.google.de), for website analysis purposes. Google (Universal) Analytics uses methods, such as cookies, which allow your use of the website to be analysed. The automatically collected information regarding your use of this website will generally be transferred to and stored by Google on a server in the USA. Through the enabling of IP anonymisation on this website, the IP address is abbreviated within the member states of the European Union or in other European Economic Area member states before data are transferred. The full IP address is only transmitted to a Google server in the U.S. and abbreviated there in exceptional cases. The anonymised IP address provided by your browser for the purpose of Google Analytics shall not be merged with other data held by Google. If we stop using Google Analytics and there is no longer any reason to retain data, the data collected for this purpose shall be deleted.
Google LLC has its headquarters in the USA and is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield. An up-to-date certificate can be found here. Because of this agreement between the USA and the European Commission, the latter has defined an appropriate data protection level for companies certified under the Privacy Shield.
You can revoke your consent for the future at any time by downloading and installing the browser plug-in which is available via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB. Doing this will prevent the data generated by the cookie regarding your use of the website (including your IP address) being collected and processed by Google.
Content from third-party providers is incorporated into this website. This content is provided by Google LLC (“provider”).
YouTube is operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
For YouTube videos which are incorporated into our website, the advanced data protection setting is enabled. This means that YouTube will not collect and store information from website visitors unless they play back the video. In accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Point (f) of the GDPR, videos are incorporated into the website to enable us to safeguard our justified interest in ensuring that our offering is marketed in the optimum manner – an interest which prevails when the interests of all parties are taken into account.
Information regarding the purpose and scope of data collection, the further processing and use of data by the provider as well as your rights and the settings available to protect your privacy can be found in Google’s data protection statements http://www.google.com/intl/de/+/policy/+1button.html.

We use the "Friendly Captcha" service on our website (www.friendlycaptcha.com).
This service is provided by Friendly Captcha GmbH, Am Anger 3-5, 82237 Woerthsee, Germany.
Friendly Captcha is a new type of privacy-friendly security solution to make it increasingly difficult for automated programs and scripts (so-called "bots") to use our website.
For this purpose, we have integrated a program code from Friendly Captcha into our website (e.g. for contact forms) so that the visitor's end device can establish a connection to Friendly Captcha's servers in order to receive a computational task from Friendly Captcha. The visitor's end device solves the computational task, which requires certain system resources, and sends the computational results to our web server. Our server contacts the Friendly Captcha server via an API and receives a response stating whether the puzzle was solved correctly by the end device. Depending on the result, we can apply security rules to requests via our website and thus, for example, further process or reject them.
The data is used exclusively for the protection against spam and bots as described above.
Friendly Captcha does not set or read cookies on the visitor's end device.
IP addresses are only stored in hashed (one-way encrypted) form and do not allow us and Friendly Captcha to draw any conclusions about an individual person.
If personal data is collected, it will be deleted after 30 days at the latest.
The legal basis for the processing is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR in protecting our website against abusive access by bots, i.e. spam protection and protection against attacks (e.g. mass requests).
Further information on data protection when using Friendly Captcha can be found at https://friendlycaptcha.com/legal/privacy-end-users/.
