We take the protection of your personal data very seriously and want to ensure your safety when visiting our Internet page. We handle data protection, in particular, in compliance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation, the Federal Data Protection Act (BSDG - new) and the German Telemedia Act (TMG). We would herewith like to inform you of the nature, scope and purpose of the processing of your personal data. To begin with, we would like to point out that this Privacy Statement solely refers to our own webpages and does not apply to any third-party websites to which we may refer in the form of a link.
The object of this Privacy Statement is to protect personal data. This includes all information that refers to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as the “data sub-ject”). This includes, in particular, all information that allows conclusions to be drawn as to your identity (e.g. details such as your name, postal address, email address and telephone number).
In order for you to be able to set up a connection to our website, your browser transfers specif-ic data to the webserver of our website. This is a technical requirement that allows the infor-mation you called up to be made available to you by our website. This is achieved by storing your IP address, the date and time of your request, your operating system type and other in-formation which is then stored and used for a maximum period of 7 days. We reserve the right to store these data for a limited period in order to safeguard our legitimate interests so as to be able to derive information from personal data in the case of unauthorized access or the attempt to deliberately cause damage to our company through this route (Art. 6, para. 1 (f) GDPR). These data shall be solely stored or transferred for this and no other purpose, whereby we shall not inform you of this or ask for your consent in advance.
Cookies are small text files that are stored by your browser on your computer or mobile termi-nal device to detect, for example, whether you visit the same websites repeatedly from the same terminal device or browser. In general, we set cookies to analyze the interest in our web-site as well as to improve the user-friendliness of our website. In principle, however, you can also call up our website without using cookies.
As a rule, cookies can be deactivated or removed with the aid of special tools which are of-fered by most commercial browsers. For each browser that you use, you have to determine the settings separately and configure these individually. The different browsers offer a range of functions and options to this purpose.
Is used by Google Analytics to limit the request rate.

When calling up our website, you will be informed about the use of these cookies by way of an informative text in our cookie banner. You automatically accept these cookies, if you continue to use them or by clicking on the “Accept” button.
The usage of session cookies allows users and the changes they make on a website to be identified. They allow the website to track their movements across individual pages so that information that has already been entered/stored does not have to be re-entered/stored again. Webshop shopping baskets are a good example of this. The session cookie stores the selected products in the shopping basket so that this contains the correct articles when payment is made at checkout. Session cookies are deleted when the user logs off or be-come invalid once the session has automatically expired.
A permanent or protocol cookie stores the user’s information and settings on the user’s computer for the duration of the period defined by the respective expiration date. This al-lows quicker and easier access as you do not, for example, have to repeat the language settings or re-enter your login data. These cookies are automatically deleted when the stor-age period expires.
As a rule, third-party cookies have no influence on the usage of the page as they do not originate from the operator of the website. They fulfill, for example, the purpose of collect-ing information for advertising purposes, personalized content and web statistics and for passing these on to the respective third-party provider.
Tracking cookies are special text files which open up the possibility of collecting data on the behavior of the Internet users. This is aimed at gaining information on what the user’s main points of interest are, for example, to be able to launch made-to-measure promotional of-fers. Therefore, tracking cookies are not only set during the login process but are automati-cally set whenever the website is visited.
Our webssite includes a contact form which can be used to contact us electronically. To en-sure that your data are transferred securely, we use a connection which deploys state of the art encryption with an SSL certificate during the transfer process. By clicking on the “Send” button, you automatically consent to the transfer of the data that you entered in the entry form over to us. We store you name and email address, and possibly other information that you have pro-vided us with, in order to be able to contact you and provide you with the best-possible answer to your enquiry. On the one hand, this allows us to offer you the service that you expect from us and, on the other, it provides us with the opportunity to continually improve (Art. 6, para. 1 (f) GDPR).
Our website makes use of the functions provided by a range of different web analysis services offered by other companies, such as Google Inc., for example. In the following, we shall ex-plain in more detail which individual services are involved and which data are analyzed.

The above link can also be used as an alternative to the browser add-on described above as it activates an “opt-out cookie” which is only valid for the browser and domain in question. If cookies are deleted in this browser, this cookie is also lost so that you will have to click on the link again.
