Applicable are the EU General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).
The legal basis for the purpose of processing our services, implementation of contractual measures and responding to queries is Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR; the legal basis for the processing of fulfilling our legal obligations is Art. 6 (1)(c) GDPR and the legal basis for the processing of the protection of our legitimate interests is Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

You may visit our websites without having to supply any personal details. With every access to our website usage data is transmitted through your internet browser and saved in protocol files (server-logfiles). This (then saved) user data contains, in particular, the name of the accessed page, date, time of access/visit, the transmitted data volume and the requesting provider. This data acquisition is assessed on the basis of our legitimate interest’s subject to Art.6 (1)(f) and serves to ensure that our online services can operate trouble-free and the improvement of our offers and our services. We are not able to associate theses data with a specific person.
As soon as you contact us or request an offer (for example over a contact form, e-mail, telephone, fax or over social media sites) or you place an order, we will raise, store, process and use your personal data as part of the execution of the ordering process but only so far as this is necessary for the fulfilment, handling and execution of your order or for the purpose of facilitating communication with you as well as the necessity to answer your inquiries/requests.
To conclude a contract the provision of data is mandatory. Failure or refusal to supply data has the result that contracts cannot be concluded. The processing is based on Art.6 (1)(b) GDPR and is mandatory for the conclusion of a contract with you and for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Belonging to processing data is communication data, item and continuance data, contract data and data necessary for payment purposes. This applies to our customers and other individuals who send us inquiries. Purpose of the data processing is that we can answer to inquiries as well as to provide contractual services, especially settlements, delivery and customer service.

The scope of forwarded data is limited to the necessary minimum required.
Referred to as cookies are small data files that are saved on the user’s computer. Within the cookies various details can be stored. A cookie mainly serves the purpose to save the details of the user (or rather those of the device upon which the cookies are saved) during and also after the visit within the online offer. Referred to as temporary cookies, also known as “session cookies” or “transient cookies” are cookies which are deleted when the user leaves the online offer and closes the browser. Such a cookie saves for example the contents of an online shopping cart or a login-status. Referred to as “permanent” or “persistant” cookies are those which stay saved also after the browser has been closed. That way for example the login-status can be saved so that the user is still registered when going online on that site after many days past. Just as well can in such a cookie the interests of the user be saved, which are used for range measurement or for marketing purposes. Cookies referred to as “third-party-cookies” are those offered by providers other than the responsible provider who operates the online offer (so-called “first-party-cookies” are those offered by the responsible provider her-/himself).
If you do not wish to save cookies on your devices, then you can deactivate the relevant option in the system settings of your browser. Saved cookies can be deleted in the system settings of your browser.
The exclusion of cookies can possibly lead to functional limitation of online offers.
We collect data based on our justified interests subject to Art.6 (1)(f) DGPR with access to our servers on which this service is running (so-called server-log-files). Belonging to access data is the name of the requested website, data file, date and time of access, transmitted data volume, notification of successful access, browser type as well as version, the operating system of the user, referrer URL (the previously visited site), IP address and the requesting provider.
Log-files information is, out of security reasons (e.g.: investigation of criminal offence related to abusive acts or acts of fraud) saved for a period of maximum 7 days and is deleted after that. Data that needs to be stored for investigation purposes until the respective incident is cleared in final is exempted from deletion.
We host online presence within social media networks and platforms, so that one may communicate with and inform active customers, prospective buyers and users of our services and achievements. When accessing the respective networks and platforms the general terms and conditions as well as the data processing policies of the respective provider prevail.
Unless otherwise declared in the framework of this data protection regulation, we will process the user’s data, provided they communicate with us over social networks and platforms, for example: publication of articles on our online presences or by sending us messages.
Within our online offers we use the service and/or content offers of third-parties, for example: incorporation of videos or fonts (subsequently consistently declared as “contents”) based on our justified interests (which are interest in the analysis, optimisation and economical operation of our online offers subject to Art.6 (1)(f) GDPR).
This always requires that the third-party providers register the contents of the IP addresses of the users, as without the IP address they cannot send the contents to the user’s browser.
The IP address is therefore necessary for the presentation of the contents. We endeavour to only use the contents of the respective provider of the IP addresses merely to deliver the contents. Third-party providers can also use so-called “pixel-tags” (hidden graphics, also known as “web beacons”) for statistical or marketing purposes. In using “pixel-tags” information such as visitor traffic on the pages of the website can be analysed. The pseudonymous information can also be saved in cookies on the devices of the users and amongst other contain, as also linkage data from different sources, technical information about the browser and the operating system, referring websites, visiting time as well other details for usage of our online offers.
