We will use this information to improve and update our websites on an ongoing basis, as well as to increase attractiveness.

The collection and storage of data can be objected to at any time with effect for the future. In view of the discussion as to the use of analysis tools with complete IP addresses we wish to point out that this website uses Google Analytics with the add-on “_anonymizelp()” and therefore all IP addresses are processed in an abbreviated form only to prevent direct reference to an individual.
6.1.3. We have concluded an agreement for data processing with Google and completely comply with the stringent defaults of German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.
Moreover our website uses Google Adsense, a web ads service of Google Inc., USA (“Google”). Google Adsense uses so-called "cookies”, text files stored on your computer and enabling the analysis of how you use the website.

6.4. Use of Google Remarketing and “Similar Audiences” function of Google Inc.

These cookies may not be tracked via several websites by different AdWords participants. In “Google AdWords” conversion statistics are created via the cookie. These statistics record the number of users who clicked on one of our ads. Besides the number of users is counted who accessed a target page equipped with a “conversion tag”.

Art 6 I lit. a GDPR shall be the legal basis for processing for which we obtain consent to a certain purpose of the processing. If processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as for instance with processing for the supply of goods or rendering services or return services, processing shall be based on Art 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same shall be applicable for processing necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures, such as inquiries as to our products and services. If a company is subject to a legal obligation which prompts the processing of personal data, such as compliance with tax obligations, processing shall be based on Art 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases the processing of personal data might be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case if a visitor is injured in our company and as a result his or her name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be forwarded to a physician, hospital or another third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. In the end the processing could be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Processing not covered by any of the aforementioned legal grounds is based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to protect a vital interest of our company or a third party, unless interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedom of the data subject prevail. We are entitled to such processing because they are explicitly mentioned by the European legislator. In this regard the latter’s opinion was that a legitimate interest could be assumed, if the data subject is a customer of the controller (recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest will be the performance of our business activities in favor of the welfare of our staff members and our shareholders.
The criterion for the storage period of personal data shall be the respective legal retention period. Upon expiry of the period the respective data shall be routinely deleted, provided that they are no longer necessary for the performance of the contract or contract initiation.
We inform you that the provision of personal data partially is prescribed by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may be a result of contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). From time to time it may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract that a data subject provides us with personal data which subsequently must be processed by us. The data subject shall be obliged to provide personal data, if our company enters into a contract with him or her. The non-provision of personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject cannot be concluded. Prior to the provision of personal data by the data subject the latter must contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer informs the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is prescribed by law or contract or necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide personal data and what consequences would have to be expected if personal data are not provided.
As a responsible company we waive automated decision-making or profiling.
