With the following information we would like to give you as an "affected person" an overview of the processing of your personal data by us and your rights under the Data Protection Law. A use of our internet pages is basically possible without the input of personal data. However, if you wish to use special services of our company through our website, it may be necessary to process your personal data. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain your consent.
We have implemented many technical and organizational measures as responsible Company in order to ensure the most complete protection possible for personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security holes, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, you are free to transmit personal data to us in alternative ways, such as by phone or by post.
A consent is any voluntarily given and unambiguously expressed act by the affected person in the form of a statement or other unambiguous confirmation on the particular case, by which the affected person indicates that he/she consents and accepts the processing of the concerned personal data.
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. A GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations where we obtain consent for a particular processing purpose.
If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a contract of which you are a party (e.g. in processing operations necessary for the supply of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration), the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries regarding our products or services.
If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR.
In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be required to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our premises were injured and his or her name, age, health insurance or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then processing would be based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR.
Finally processing operations can be based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. On this legal basis, Data will be processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures (‘integrity and confidentiality’). The processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, unless the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the person prevail. Such processing operations are particularly allowed to us since they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In that regard, a legitimate interest may be assumed, if you are a customer of our company (Recital 47, second sentence, GDPR).
This Web site uses an SSL or TLS encryption to ensure the security of the data processing and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders, login details or contact requests that you send to us as the operator or user. An encrypted connection can be recognized by the fact that the address bar of the browser contains an "https: //" instead of an "http: //" and the lock symbol in your browser bar.

The data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by an affected person.

We have integrated the component Matomo on this website. Matomo is an open source software tool for web analysis. Web analysis is the recording, collection and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. Among other things, a web analysis tool collects data about the webseite, from which an affected person accessed our website (so-called referrer), which subpages of the website were accessed or how often and for which length of stay a subpage was viewed. A web analysis is mainly used to optimize the website and make a cost-benefit analysis of the Internet advertising service.
The purpose of the Matomo component is to analyze visitor flows on our website. Among other things, we use the data and information obtained to evaluate the use of this website and to create online reports that show the activities on our websites.
Matomo sets a cookie on your IT system. By setting the cookie, we are enabled to analyze the use of our website. Each time you visit one of the pages on this website, the Internet browser on your IT system will automatically cause the Matomo component to submit data to our server for online analysis. In the course of this technical process, we gain knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the person concerned, which among other things serves to help us understanding the origin of visitors and clicks.
The cookie stores personally identifiable information, such as access time, the location from which access was made, and the frequency of visits to our website. Each time you visit our website, this personal information, including the IP address of the Internet connection you use, is transmitted to our server. These personal data are stored by us. We do not share this personal information with third parties.
You can prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser and thus permanently contradict the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Matomo from setting a cookie on your IT system.

Furthermore, you can decline the detection of the data generated by Matomo and related with the use of this website data. To do so, you must set an opt-out cookie. If your IT system is later deleted, formatted, or reinstalled, you must re-opt-out this cookie. By setting the opt-out cookie, however, our internet pages might be no longer fully usable to you.
When you visit any of the subpages where the Google Maps map is incorporated, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Google's servers in the United States and stored there. This is done regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in to, or if there is no user account. When you're logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not want to associate with your profile on Google, you'll need to log out of your Google Account. Google stores your data (even for non-logged-in users) as usage profiles and evaluates them. According to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, such an evaluation is based on the legitimate interests of Google in the display of personalized advertising, market research and / or customized design of its website.
