If necessary for the resolution of unlawful use or misuse of our webpages or for prosecution, personal data will be passed on to the criminal prosecution authorities and, if necessary, to third parties who have been harmed. However, this will only take place if there are specific indications of unlawful conduct or misuse. We are also legally obliged to provide information to certain public bodies upon request. These are criminal prosecution authorities, authorities that pursue administrative offences punishable by a financial penalty, and the financial authorities.
Forwarding to third parties bound to professional secrecy can only take place if this is necessary for the implementation of the contractual terms and conditions or other agreements, and our claims from contracts that you have concluded with us.
For the provision of our service, we are occasionally reliant on contractually bound third-party companies and external service providers, e.g. for the hosting. In such cases, information will be passed on to these companies or individual people in order to enable further processing. These external service providers are carefully selected by us and checked regularly, to ensure that your privacy remains protected, and they may only process the data for the purposes specified by us. They are also contractually obliged by us to only handle your data exclusively in accordance with this Data Privacy Statement and the German data privacy laws.
As part of the further development of our business, the structure of our company may change, in that the legal form is changed, or subsidiary companies, business units or components are founded, purchased or sold. In the event of such transactions, the customer information will be passed on, together with the part of the company to be transferred, with your consent. During any transfer of personal data to third parties to the specified extent, we will ensure that the further use takes place in accordance with this Data Privacy Statement and the relevant data protection laws, and we will ask for your permission.
We do not create personal user profiles. In connection with the displaying of information requested by you, data is only stored on our servers in anonymised form, for the provision of our various services or for analysis purposes. General information is hereby logged, e.g. which content of our offering is accessed and when, and what pages are visited the most frequently. For these purposes, we use so-called “cookies” (small text files with configuration information). The cookies used serve in particular to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of our websites. This enables us to find out which parts of our websites and which other websites our visitors have visited.
However, these use data cannot be traced back to the users. None of this anonymously compiled use data will be matched with your personal data, and it will be promptly erased after the end of the statistical analysis.
Moreover, our webpages do not store cookies that do not have only technically necessary functions and do not only enable the proper functioning of our webpages if you have not accepted them beforehand. For this purpose, you must agree before the storage of cookies by selecting the types of cookies you desire or accept and clicking on “Akzeptieren” (accept) on the banner that contains the notice on the storage of cookies. Further detailed information about the types of cookies we use and how to configure the use of individual types of cookies, and agree and object to their use, can be found in our cookie settings.
The legal bases for this data processing are Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (which permits the processing of data for the protection of legitimate interests of the data controller) and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (which permits data processing based on your consent).
Most browsers are configured so that they automatically accept cookies. However, you can deactivate the storage of cookies or set your browser so that it notifies you before cookies are stored. Users who do not accept cookies may not be able to access certain parts of our website.
If you have agreed to the use of corresponding cookies, our website may use Google Analytics, a website analysis service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, which are text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website will generally be sent to a Google server in the USA, where it will be stored.
We would also like to point out that Google Analytics has been expanded with the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” within our website in order to guarantee the anonymised logging of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). Before the transmission, your IP address will therefore be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional circumstances will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA, where it will be stored. The IP address sent from your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be matched with other data by Google.
Google will use this information on our behalf in order to analyse your use of our website, compile reports on the website activities, and provide the website operator with services associated with the website use and internet use. Google may also pass on this information to third parties, if this is legally required or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, which allows the processing of data to protect legitimate interests of the data controller.
You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out to you that in this case, you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.
You can also prevent the logging of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
As an alternative to this browser plugin or within browsers on mobile devices, you can prevent the logging by Google Analytics by deactivating the functionality option in the cookie settings.
An opt-out cookie will then be placed, preventing the future logging of your data when visiting this website.
Further information about this can be found at http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de or http://www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/learn/privacy.html (general information about Google Analytics and data privacy).

More information about the use of user data can be found in the Google data privacy statement at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
Your visit to our websites will be automatically logged by our web servers.
The processing of the above-named data hereby takes place for security purposes, for general fraud prevention and as a precaution against attacks on our websites. An automated amalgamation of this data with data from other data sources does not take place.
If your IP address is automatically logged, it will be automatically deleted after 30 days at the latest.
Otherwise, only general information is logged, e.g. when which content of our offering is accessed and what pages are visited the most frequently, the names of the requested files and their dates and times of access. This data is used to improve our services and does not enable matches to be made with you personally.
We will not use this information for any other purposes.
The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, which allows the processing of data to protect legitimate interests of the data controller.
If you conclude contracts with us, we will store and process your personal data for the duration the contract and beyond for the fulfilment of your post-contractual obligations and matters, and for the duration of the statutory retention periods (maximum 10 years).
If you have agreed to the use of your email address for marketing purposes, we will store your email address within our mailing database until you de-register or request that we erase the data.
If you send us a query, we will process your personal data for the duration of the processing of your query.
When we no longer require your personal data, we will erase it from our systems and records, or anonymise it so that it can no longer be identified.
We can retain certain personal data in order to comply with our statutory and regulatory obligations, and to enable us to manage our rights (e.g. the assertion of our rights in court), or for statistical purposes (in anonymised form).
For the secure transmission of your personal data, we use so-called SSL encryption. This form of transfer is recognised as a secure form of data transfer based on our current knowledge. We endeavour to take technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unintentional or unlawful erasure, changes or loss, and against unauthorised forwarding or unauthorised access. Our employees are accordingly obliged to maintain secrecy and data privacy.
In order to prevent the loss or misuse of the data stored by us, we take comprehensive technical and organisational safety precautions, which are regularly reviewed and adjusted to meet technological advances. If it is within our sphere of influence, we use in particular modern encryption techniques as well as a variety of other measures to prevent third parties from obtaining unauthorised information. You will recognise an encrypted connection when the address bar of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and you will see a lock symbol in your browser bar. If there is an SSL or TLS encryption, the data you exchange with us cannot be seen by third parties.
However, we would like to point out to you that due to the structure of the internet, it is possible that the data protection regulations and the above-named security measures of other persons or institutions not within our area of responsibility cannot be observed. In particular, data passed on in a non-encrypted form can be read by third parties, even if it is sent via email. We have no technical influence on this occurrence. In these cases, it is the responsibility of the user to protect the data it provides against misuse, by encryption or other methods.
You can also use the contact details for other general queries and contact requests.
You contact details will hereby be collected and processed by us. You can generally decide yourself which data you provide to us when contacting us. In this case, we will only use your data to respond to your query.

Some forms of data processing are only possible on the basis of your explicit consent. You can withdraw consent already given at any time. The legitimacy of the data processing carried out until the withdrawal will remain unaffected by the withdrawal.
