We have taken the appropriate organisational, contractual and technical security measures to ensure compliance with data protection laws and to prevent accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons. However, please be aware that it is not possible to guarantee 100% security when transferring data over the Internet.

In accordance with statutory provisions, the log data is not assigned to the specific person of the visitor to the site and no additional profiling is carried out; the data is used exclusively for statistical analyses for the operation, security and the optimisation of the online offer. However, the provider reserves the right to subsequently review the log data if, based on demonstrable evidence, a legitimate suspicion of unlawful use exists.
We store IP addresses in the log files for a limited period if such storage is required for security purposes, if this is necessary to provide services or if a legitimate suspicion of unlawful use exists in connection with the use of our website.
Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 (f) GDPR based on our legitimate interest to improve the stability and functionality of our website. We neither transfer data nor use it for any other purpose.
Personal data is collected when you contact us (e.g. via email). We only store and use additional personal data if you submit this information voluntarily, for example, when you contact us. Insofar as you have submitted personal data, we will only use such data to respond to your enquiries, to transact contracts concluded with you and for technical administration.

If your contact is to fulfil a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para. 1 (b) GDPR. Your data will be deleted after the definitive processing of your request.

The visitor to the website can influence the use of cookies. Most browsers have an option that limits or blocks the storage of cookies. We design our online offer so that the use of cookies is not necessary, but please note that the use and, in particular, the ease of use of the website will be compromised if cookies are not used.

- Right of information pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR: In particular, you have a right to information about the personal data processed by us, the purposes of such processing, the categories of personal data processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the anticipated period of storage or the criteria for determining such storage period, the right of correction, deletion, restriction of processing, objection to processing, complaint to a supervisory authority, information on the origin of your data, if such data was not collected by us, the existence of automated decision-making including profiling and any potentially meaningful information about the logic involved and the relevant scope, the intended effects of such processing and your right to information regarding the guarantees implemented pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR when forwarding your data to third countries;
- Right to correction pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR: You have the right to the immediate correction of incorrect data concerning you and/or the completion of your incomplete data stored by us;
- Right to deletion in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR: You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data if the conditions of Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR are fulfilled. This right shall not apply in particular if the processing is essential to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information, to fulfil a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or to assert, exercise or defend legal rights;
- Right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR: You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data provided the correctness of the relevant data is checked, if you decline the deletion of your data following unlawful data processing but instead wish to restrict the processing of your data, if you require your data to assert, exercise or defend legal rights after we no longer need such data after the intended purpose has been fulfilled or if you have objected for reasons arising from your particular situation, insofar as it is not established in law that our legitimate reasons to process such data prevail;
- Right to information pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR: If you have asserted the right of rectification, deletion or restriction of the processing with respect to the controller, the controller must rectify or delete the data with respect to all recipients to whom the personal data relating to you has been disclosed or limit the processing of such, unless such action proves to be impossible or disproportionate.

- Right to revocation of consent pursuant to Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR: You have the right to withdraw your previous consent to the processing of data at any time with effect for the future. In the event of a revocation, we will delete the relevant data immediately, provided further processing has no legal basis for processing without your consent. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out based on consent up to the point of the revocation;
- Right to complain pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR: If you assert that the processing of your personal data conflicts with the provisions of the GDPR, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, in particular in the Member State of your place of residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.
- Right to object: If we process your personal data in the context of a balance of interests due to our prevailing legitimate interest, you may object to such processing with effect for the future at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation.
If you exercise this right of objection, we will cease processing the relevant data, but reserve the right to further processing if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate reasons for such processing that prevail over your interests, basic rights and fundamental freedoms or if the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
You can contact a competent supervisory authority regarding our processing as follows:
State Representative for Data Protection and Freedom of Information, North Rhine-Westphalia:
However, we would hope that you will have no cause for complaint and that we can address your concerns to your satisfaction through direct and personal contact with us.
