III. General information on data processing
1. Scope of processing personal data
We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website as well as our content and services. Personal data of our users is generally processed only with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
2. Legal basis for processing personal data
When obtaining the consent of the data subject for processing personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis. For the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. The same applies to processing operations necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures. If processing personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis. If processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, Art. 6 (1) lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis. If processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or a third party, and such interests are not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
3. Data deletion and storage duration
Personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Storage may continue if provided for by European or national legislation in EU regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for contract conclusion or contract performance.
IV. Provision of the Website and Creation of Log Files
1. Description and scope of data processing
Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer. The following data is collected:
a.)Browser type and version
b.)User’s operating system
c.)Internet service provider of the user
d.)IP address of the user
e.)Date and time of access
f.)Websites from which the user’s system accesses our website
g.)Websites accessed by the user’s system through our website
These data are also stored in our system’s log files. They are not stored together with other personal data of the user.
2. Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.
3. Purpose of data processing
Temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to deliver the website to the user's computer. This requires the user’s IP address to be stored for the duration of the session. Storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website and to optimize it and ensure the security of our information technology systems. Data is not evaluated for marketing purposes in this context. These purposes constitute our legitimate interest in data processing under Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.
4. Storage duration
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose of its collection. For data collected for providing the website, this is the case when the session ends. For data stored in log files, this is no later than seven days. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or anonymized so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.
5. Objection and removal possibility
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is essential for the operation of the website. Therefore, the user has no possibility to object.

VI. Analysis tools - Tracking tools
1. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
The tracking measures listed below and used by us are carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
2 Purpose of the data processing
With the tracking measures used, we want to ensure a needs-based design and the continuous optimisation of our website. On the other hand, we use the tracking measures to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimising our offer for you. These interests are to be regarded as legitimate within the meaning of the aforementioned provision.
The respective data processing purposes and data categories can be found in the corresponding tracking tools. You can prevent the recording of your user behaviour by refusing your consent on our website (see III. 1., last paragraph above).
3. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc (https://www.google.de/intl/de/about/) (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter referred to as "Google") for the purpose of designing and continuously optimising our website to meet your needs. In this context, pseudonymised user profiles are created and cookies (see section 4) are used. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website, such as
Browser type/version,
operating system used,
Referrer URL (the previously visited page),
Host name of the accessing computer (IP address),
time of the server enquiry,
are transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to analyse the use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage for the purposes of market research and the needs-based design of this website. This information may also be transferred to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on our behalf. Under no circumstances will your IP address be merged with other Google data. The IP addresses are anonymised so that they cannot be assigned (IP masking).
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 use the full functionality of this website.
You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing a browser add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).
As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting data by clicking on this link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent the future collection of your data when you visit this website. The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you must set the opt-out cookie again.
Further information on data protection in connection with Google Analytics can be found in the Google Analytics help centre (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de).
4. Google Adwords conversion tracking
We also use Google Conversion Tracking to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimising our website for you. Google Adwords places a cookie (see section 4) on your computer if you have reached our website via a Google advert.
These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of the Adwords customer's website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognise that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.
Each Adwords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of Adwords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for Adwords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Adwords customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their advert and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.
If you do not wish to participate in the tracking process, you can also refuse the setting of a cookie required for this - for example, by using a browser setting that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies. You can also deactivate cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain "www.googleadservices.com". You can find Google's privacy policy on conversion tracking here (https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html).

7. Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

9. Automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

b.)is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
c.)with your express consent.
However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a or g GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.
With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.
10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
