("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website will generally be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. IP anonymisation has been activated on this website so that the IP address of Google users within Member States of the European Union or in other Contracting States to the Agreement on the European Economic Area is truncated beforehand. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services relating to website activity and Internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, please note that if you do this you may not be able to take advantage of the full functionality of this website.

The data will only be used to answer your enquiry, not for a sales pitch or otherwise for advertising purposes. 3.3 Social media We also offer you extensive personal support via our pages in social media (LinkedIn, YouTube) on the basis of art. 6 para. 1 sentence1 lit. f GDPR and the opportunity to stay in touch with us. These social media services themselves collect personal data, e.g. via your profile created there or via so-called social plug-ins, which are implemented in third party websites. If you call up a website of our website that contains such a plug-in, your browser establishes a direct connection with the servers of the respective companies. The content of the plug-ins is transmitted directly to your browser and integrated into the website. We therefore have no influence on the extent of the data that the respective companies collect with the help of these plug-ins. We therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge: By integrating the plug-ins, the respective companies receive the information that you have called up the corresponding page of our website. If you are logged into one of the companies listed above, they can assign the visit to your account there. When you interact with the plug-ins, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser to the respective company and stored there. If you do not have an account with one of the above companies, they may still know and store your IP address. It cannot therefore be ruled out that every visitor to our website may be recorded by the company listed above on the basis of the IP address and the URL accessed, even if the user does not click on the plug-ins and is not registered with the company with a user account.

This applies in particular within the group for purposes of group management, internal communication and other administrative purposes.

We will delete your personal data as soon as it is no longer required for the aforementioned purposes or you have exercised your right of objection. After termination of the contractual relationship, your personal data will be stored as long as we are legally obliged to do so. This regularly results from legal obligations to provide evidence and to retain records, which are regulated in the German Commercial Code and the German Tax Code. The storage periods are then up to ten years. In addition, personal information may be retained for the period during which claims may be made against us (statutory limitation period of three or up to thirty years). 5.
