This privacy policy also applies to our websites and social media profiles. With regard to the definition of terms such as "personal data" or "processing", we refer to Art. 4 GDPR.

Types of data, purposes of processing and categories of data subjects
Below we inform you about the type, scope and purpose of the collection, processing and use of personal data.
1. types of data that we process
2. purposes of processing in accordance with Art. 13 para. 1 c) GDPR
3. categories of data subjects pursuant to Art. 13 para. 1 e) GDPR
The data subjects are collectively referred to as "users".
Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Below we inform you about the legal basis for the processing of personal data:
If we have obtained your consent for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR is the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
If the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject (e.g. statutory retention obligations), the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c) GDPR.
If the processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. d) GDPR is the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party and your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms do not prevail in this respect, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR is the legal basis.
Disclosure of personal data to third parties and processors
We do not pass on any data to third parties without your consent. Should this nevertheless be the case, the data will be passed on on the basis of the aforementioned legal bases, e.g. when passing on data to online payment providers for contract fulfillment or due to a court order or due to a legal obligation to hand over the data for the purpose of criminal prosecution, to avert danger or to enforce intellectual property rights.
We also use processors (external service providers, e.g. for web hosting of our websites and databases) to process your data. If data is passed on to the processors as part of an agreement on order processing, this is always done in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. We select our processors carefully, monitor them regularly and have been granted the right to issue instructions regarding the data. In addition, the processors must have taken appropriate technical and organizational measures and comply with the data protection regulations according to BDSG n.F. and GDPR
Data transfer to third countries
The adoption of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has created a uniform basis for data protection in Europe. Your data is therefore primarily processed by companies to which the GDPR applies. However, if processing is carried out by third-party services outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, these must fulfill the special requirements of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR must be met. This means that the processing takes place on the basis of special guarantees, such as the EU Commission's officially recognized determination of a level of data protection corresponding to that of the EU or compliance with officially recognized special contractual obligations, the so-called "standard contractual clauses". In the case of US companies, submission to the so-called "Privacy Shield", the data protection agreement between the EU and the USA, fulfills these requirements.
Deletion of data and storage duration
Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies, unless further storage is required for evidence purposes or this is contrary to statutory retention obligations. This includes, for example, commercial law retention obligations for business letters in accordance with Section 257 (1) HGB (6 years) and tax law retention obligations for documents in accordance with Section 147 (1) AO (10 years). If the prescribed retention period expires, your data will be blocked or deleted unless storage is still required for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.
Existence of automated decision-making
We do not use automated decision-making or profiling.
Provision of our website and creation of log files
If you only use our website for information purposes (i.e. no registration and no other transmission of information), we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect the following data: . IP address;
. Internet service provider of the user;
. Date and time of access;
. Browser type ;
. Language and browser version;
. Content of the retrieval;
. Time zone;
. Access status/HTTP status code;

. Operating system.
This data is not stored together with your other personal data.
This data serves the purpose of user-friendly, functional and secure delivery of our website to you with functions and content as well as their optimization and statistical evaluation.
The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR, which also lies in the above purposes.
For security reasons, we store this data in server log files for a storage period of days. After this period has expired, they are automatically deleted, unless we need to retain them for evidence purposes in the event of attacks on the server infrastructure or other legal violations.
Newsletter
You can subscribe to our newsletter with your voluntary consent by entering your e-mail address. Only this is mandatory. The provision of further data is voluntary and serves only to address you personally. We use the so-called "double opt-in procedure" for registration. After you have registered with your e-mail address, you will receive an e-mail from us with a confirmation link to confirm your registration. If you click on this confirmation link, your e-mail will be added to the newsletter distribution list and stored for the purpose of sending e-mails. If you do not click on the confirmation link within hours, your registration data will be blocked and automatically deleted after a few days.
We also log your IP address used for registration as well as the date and time of the double opt-in (registration and confirmation). The purpose of this storage is to comply with legal requirements regarding proof of your registration and to prevent misuse of your e-mail.
The contents (e.g. advertised products/services, offers, advertising and topics) of the newsletter are specifically described in your declaration of consent.
We use the following service provider to send emails:
Newsletter2Go (), whose privacy policy can be found here . We have concluded an agreement with the mailing service provider for order processing in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.
When sending the newsletter, we evaluate your user behavior. The newsletters contain so-called "web beacons" or "tracking pixels", which are called up when the newsletter is opened. For the analysis, we link the web beacons to your email address and an individual ID. Links received in the newsletter also contain this ID. The data is only collected in pseudonymized form, i.e. the IDs are not linked to your other personal data, and direct personal identification is excluded. We can use this data to determine whether and when you have opened the newsletter and which links in the newsletter have been clicked. This serves the purpose of optimizing and statistically evaluating our newsletter.
We use the above data to create a user profile in order to identify the reading habits and interests of our users and thus personalize the newsletter. If you have also carried out other actions on our website, we also link this data to this in order to adapt our newsletter content to your interests.
The legal basis for sending the newsletter, measuring success and storing the email is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 7 para. 2 no. 3 UWG and for logging the consent Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR, as this serves our legitimate interest in legal provability.
You can object to tracking at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the end of the newsletter. In this case, however, you will also stop receiving the newsletter. If you deactivate the display of images in your e-mail software, tracking is also not possible. However, this may restrict the functions of the newsletter and any images contained therein will not be displayed.
You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at any time. You can revoke your consent by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the end of the newsletter, sending an e-mail or sending a message to our contact details above. We will store your data for as long as you have subscribed to the newsletter. After you unsubscribe, your data will only be stored anonymously for statistical purposes.

When you click on a Google ad from us, a cookie is stored in your browser, which is valid for about 30 days. If you then visit our website, we and Google can use the cookie to evaluate whether you have visited our website and which of our pages you have visited. Google compiles statistics on this. We do not know the full extent of the data processing. The data is also transferred to the USA and analyzed there.

Google Analytics
We have integrated the website analysis tool "Google Analytics" (Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountainview, California 94043, USA, EU branch: Google Dublin, Google Ireland Ltd, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) on our website.
When you visit our website, Google places a cookie on your computer in order to analyze your use of our website. The data collected is transferred to the USA and stored there. If personal data is transferred to the USA, Google's certification in accordance with the Privacy Shield Agreement (https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework) guarantees that European data protection law is complied with.
We have activated IP anonymization "anonymizeIP", which means that IP addresses are only processed in abbreviated form. On this website, your IP address will therefore be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the controller. We have also activated the cross-device analysis of website visitors, which is carried out via a so-called user ID. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. Google Analytics is used for the purpose of analyzing, optimizing and improving our website.
The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR, which also lies in the above purposes.
The data sent by us and linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g. user ID) or advertising IDs are automatically deleted after 12 months. Data that has reached the end of its retention period is automatically deleted once a month.
Further information on the use of data by Google Analytics can be found here: https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html (Terms of use for Analytics), https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de (Privacy policy for Analytics) and Google's privacy policy https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Objection and "opt-out": You can generally prevent cookies from being stored on your hard disk by selecting "Do not accept cookies" in your browser settings.

Presence in social media
We maintain profiles or fan pages on social media to communicate with the users connected and registered there and to provide information about our products, offers and services.
