Privacy Policy
Introduction and overview
We have written this data protection declaration (version 09/14/2021-311829375) in order to explain to you in accordance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and applicable national laws which personal data (short data) we as the responsible party - and the processors commissioned by us (e.g. providers) - process, will process in the future and what legal options you have. The terms used are gender-neutral.
In short: We will provide you with comprehensive information about data that we process about you.
Privacy statements usually sound very technical and use legal jargon. This data protection declaration, on the other hand, is intended to describe the most important things as simply and transparently as possible. As far as transparency is conducive, technical terms are explained in a reader-friendly manner, links to further information are provided and graphics are used. We are thus informing you in clear and simple language that we only process personal data in the course of our business activities if there is a corresponding legal basis. This is certainly not possible if you make the most concise, unclear and legal-technical statements possible, as they are often standard on the Internet when it comes to data protection. I hope you find the following explanations interesting and informative and maybe there is one or two pieces of information that you did not know.
If you still have questions, we would ask you to contact the responsible person named below or in the imprint Contact the site, follow the links provided and see more information on third party sites. Our contact details can of course also be found in the imprint.
Area of application
This data protection declaration applies to all personal data processed by us in the company and to all personal data that companies commissioned by us (processors) process. By personal data we mean information within the meaning of Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR such as a person's name, e-mail address and postal address. The processing of personal data ensures that we can offer and bill our services and products, whether online or offline. The scope of this privacy statement includes:
- all online presences (websites, online shops) that we operate
- Social media appearances and email communication
- mobile apps for smartphones and other devices
In short: The data protection declaration applies to all areas in which personal data is processed in a structured manner in the company via the channels mentioned. If we enter into legal relationships with you outside of these channels, we will inform you separately if necessary.
Legal bases
In the following data protection declaration, we provide you with transparent information on the legal principles and regulations, i.e. the legal bases of the General Data Protection Regulation, which enable us to process personal data.
As far as EU law is concerned, we refer to REGULATION (EU) 2016/679 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL of April 27, 2016. You can of course read this EU General Data Protection Regulation online at EUR-Lex, the gateway to EU law, at https:// eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/TXT/?uri=celex%3A32016R0679.
We only process your data if at least one of the following conditions applies:
- Consent (Article 6 paragraph 1 lit.a DSGVO): You have given us your consent to process data for a specific purpose. An example would be the storage of the data you have entered on a contact form.
- Contract (Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. b GDPR): In order to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual obligations with you, we process your data. For example, if we conclude a sales contract with you, we need personal information in advance.
- Legal obligation (Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. c GDPR): If we are subject to a legal obligation, we process your data. For example, we are required by law to keep invoices for bookkeeping. These usually contain personal data.
- Legitimate interests (Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR): In the case of legitimate interests that do not restrict your fundamental rights, we reserve the right to process personal data. For example, we need to process certain data in order to be able to operate our website securely and economically. This processing is therefore a legitimate interest.
Further conditions such as the perception of recordings in the public interest and the exercise of official authority as well as the protection of vital interests do not generally apply to us. Insofar as such a legal basis is relevant, it will be indicated in the appropriate place.
In addition to the EU regulation, national laws also apply:
- In Austria this is the Federal Act for the Protection of Natural Persons in the Processing of Personal Data (Data Protection Act), in short DSG.
- In Germany the Federal Data Protection Act applies, in short BDSG.
If other regional or national laws apply, we will inform you in the following sections.

Storage time
The fact that we only store personal data for as long as is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and products is a general criterion for us. This means that we delete personal data as soon as the reason for the data processing no longer exists. In some cases, we are legally obliged to store certain data even after the original purpose has ceased to exist, for example for accounting purposes.
If you wish your data to be deleted or revoke your consent to data processing, the data will be deleted as quickly as possible and provided there is no obligation to store them.
We will inform you below about the specific duration of the respective data processing if we have further information on this.
Rights under the General Data Protection Regulation
According to Article 13 GDPR, you have the following rights to ensure that data is processed fairly and transparently:
- According to Article 15 GDPR, you have a right to information as to whether we are processing your data.If this is the case, you have the right to receive a copy of the data and to be informed of the following information:
- for what purpose we carry out the processing;
- the categories, i.e. the types of data that are processed;
- who receives this data and if the data is transferred to third countries, how security can be guaranteed;
- how long the data is stored;
- the existence of the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing and the right to object to processing;
- that you can complain to a supervisory authority (links to these authorities can be found below);
- the origin of the data if we did not collect it from you;
- whether profiling is carried out, i.e. whether data is automatically evaluated in order to obtain a personal profile of you
- According to Article 16 GDPR, you have the right to correct the data, which means that we have to correct data if you find errors.
- According to Article 17 GDPR, you have the right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"), which specifically means that you may request the erasure of your data.
- According to Article 18 GDPR, you have the right to restriction of processing, which means that we may only store the data but not use it any further.
- According to Article 19 GDPR, you have the right to data portability, which means that we can provide you with your data in a common format upon request.
- According to Article 21 GDPR, you have a right of objection, which, after enforcement, will result in a change in processing.
- If the processing of your data is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter e (public interest, exercise of official authority) or Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f (legitimate interest), you can object to the processing. We will then check as quickly as possible whether we can legally comply with this objection.
- If data is used to operate direct advertising, you can object to this type of data processing at any time. We may no longer use your data for direct marketing after this.
- If data is used to operate profiling, you can object to this type of data processing at any time. We may no longer use your data for profiling after this.
- According to Article 22 GDPR, you may have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing (e.g. profiling).
In short: You have rights - do not hesitate to contact the responsible person listed above!
If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection rights have been violated in any other way, you can complain to the supervisory authority. This is the data protection authority for Austria, whose website can be found at https://www.dsb.gv.at/. In Germany there is a data protection officer for each federal state. For more information, you can contact the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (BfDI). The following local data protection authority is responsible for our company:
Hessen data protection authority
State Commissioner for Data Protection: Prof. Dr. Alexander Roßnagel
Address: Postfach 31 63, 65021 Wiesbaden
Telephone number: 06 11/140 80
Email address: poststelle@datenschutz.hessen.de
Website: https://datenschutz.hessen.en/
Data transfer to third countries
We only transfer or process data to countries outside the EU (third countries) if you agree to this processing, this is required by law or contractually necessary and in any case only to the extent that this is generally permitted. In most cases your consent is the most important reason that we have data processed in third countries. The processing of personal data in third countries such as the USA, where many software manufacturers offer services and have their server locations, may mean that personal data is processed and stored in unexpected ways.
We expressly point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. Data processing by US services (such as Google Analytics) may result in data not being processed and stored anonymously. In addition, US government authorities may have access to individual data. In addition, it may happen that collected data is linked to data from other services from the same provider, provided you have a corresponding user account. If possible, we try to use server locations within the EU if this is offered.
We will inform you in more detail about data transfer to third countries at the appropriate points in this data protection declaration, if this applies.
Security of data processing
In order to protect personal data, we have implemented both technical and organizational measures. Where possible, we encrypt or pseudonymise personal data. In this way, we make it as difficult as possible for third parties to derive personal information from our data.
Art. 25 GDPR speaks here of “data protection through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings” and means that you always think about security both with software (e.g. forms) and hardware (e.g. access to the server room) and take appropriate measures . If necessary, we will go into specific measures below.
TLS encryption with https
TLS, encryption and https sound very technical and they are. We use HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure stands for "secure hypertext transfer protocol") to transmit data securely on the Internet.
This means that the complete transmission of all data from your browser to our web server is secured - nobody can “listen”.
We have thus introduced an additional security layer and comply with data protection through technology design Article 25 paragraph 1 GDPR). By using TLS (Transport Layer Security), an encryption protocol for secure data transmission on the Internet, we can ensure the protection of confidential data.
You can recognize the use of this protection for data transmission by the small lock symbol 
in the top left of the browser, left from the internet address (e.g. examplepage.de) and using the https scheme (instead of http) as part of our internet address.
If you want to know more about encryption, we recommend searching Google for “Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure wiki” to get good links to further information.

Cookies
| Cookies summary 👥 Affected parties: Visitors to the website 🤝 Purpose: depends on the specific cookie. More details can be found below or from the manufacturer of the software that sets the cookie. 📓 Processed data: Depends on the cookie used. More details can be found below or from the manufacturer of the software that sets the cookie. 📅 Storage period: depends on the respective cookie, can vary from hours to years ⚖️ Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent), Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.f GDPR (legitimate interests) |
What are cookies?
Our website uses HTTP cookies to store user-specific data.
In the following we explain what cookies are and why they are used so that you can better understand the following data protection declaration.
Whenever you surf the Internet, you use a browser.Well-known browsers include Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge. Most websites save small text files in your browser. These files are called cookies.
One thing cannot be denied: cookies are really useful little helpers. Almost all websites use cookies. More precisely, they are HTTP cookies, as there are other cookies for other areas of application. HTTP cookies are small files that are stored on your computer by our website. These cookie files are automatically stored in the cookie folder, which is basically the "brain" of your browser. A cookie consists of a name and a value. When defining a cookie, one or more attributes must also be specified.
Cookies store certain user data from you, such as language or personal page settings. When you visit our site again, your browser transmits the "user-related" information back to our site. Thanks to cookies, our website knows who you are and offers you the settings you are used to. In some browsers each cookie has its own file, in others such as Firefox all cookies are stored in a single file.
The following graphic shows a possible interaction between a web browser such as e.g. B. Chrome and the web server. The web browser requests a website and receives a cookie from the server, which the browser uses again as soon as another page is requested.
There are both first-party cookies and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are created directly by our site, third-party cookies are created by partner websites (e.g. Google Analytics). Each cookie must be evaluated individually, since each cookie stores different data. The expiry time of a cookie also varies from a few minutes to a few years. Cookies are not software programs and do not contain viruses, Trojans or other "pests". Cookies also cannot access information on your PC.
Cookie data can look like this, for example:
Name: _ga
Value: GA1.2.1326744211.152311829375-9
Purpose: Differentiation of website visitors
Expiry date: after 2 years
A browser should be able to support these minimum sizes:
- At least 4096 bytes per cookie
- At least 50 cookies per domain
- At least 3000 cookies in total
What types of cookies are there?
The question of which cookies we use in particular depends on the services used and is clarified in the following sections of the data protection declaration. At this point we would like to briefly discuss the different types of HTTP cookies.
There are 4 types of cookies:
Required cookies
These cookies are necessary to ensure basic functions of the website. For example, these cookies are needed if a user puts a product in the shopping cart, then continues surfing on other pages and only goes to the checkout later. These cookies do not delete the shopping cart, even if the user closes their browser window.
Appropriate cookies
These cookies collect information about user behavior and whether the user receives any error messages. In addition, these cookies are also used to measure the loading time and behavior of the website in different browsers.
Targeting cookies
These cookies ensure better user-friendliness. For example, entered locations, font sizes or form data are saved.
Advertising cookies
These cookies are also called targeting cookies. They are used to provide the user with individually tailored advertising.This can be very useful, but also very annoying
Usually, when you visit a website for the first time, you will be asked which of these types of cookies you would like to allow. And of course this decision is also saved in a cookie.
If you want to know more about cookies and are not afraid of technical documentation, we recommend https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265, the Request for Comments of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) called “HTTP State Management Mechanism”.
Purpose of processing via cookies
The purpose ultimately depends on the particular cookie. More details can be found below or from the manufacturer of the software that sets the cookie.
What data is processed?
Cookies are little helpers for many different tasks. Unfortunately, it is not possible to generalize which data is stored in cookies, but we will inform you about the processed or stored data in the context of the following data protection declaration.
Storage time of cookies
The storage period depends on the respective cookie and is specified below. Some cookies are deleted after less than an hour, others can remain stored on a computer for several years.
You can also influence the storage period yourself. You can manually delete all cookies at any time via your browser (see also "Right of objection" below). Furthermore, cookies that are based on consent will be deleted at the latest after you withdraw your consent, whereby the legality of storage remains unaffected until then.
Right to object - how can I delete cookies?
You decide for yourself how and whether you want to use cookies. Regardless of which service or website the cookies come from, you always have the option of deleting, deactivating or only partially allowing cookies. For example, you can block third-party cookies but allow all other cookies.
If you want to know which cookies have been stored in your browser, if you want to change or delete cookie settings, you can find this in your browser settings:
Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome
Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari
Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer
Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies
Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies
If you generally do not want any cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. You can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow the cookie or not. The procedure differs depending on the browser. It is best to search for the instructions in Google with the search term “Delete cookies Chrome” or “Deactivate cookies Chrome” in the case of a Chrome browser.
Legal basis
The so-called “cookie guidelines” have been in place since 2009. It states that the storage of cookies requires consent (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR) from you. Within the EU countries, however, there are still very different reactions to these directives. In Austria, however, this directive was implemented in Section 96 (3) of the Telecommunications Act (TKG). In Germany, the cookie guidelines have not been implemented as national law. Instead, this guideline was largely implemented in Section 15 (3) of the Telemedia Act (TMG).
For absolutely necessary cookies, even if no consent has been given. there are legitimate interests (Article 6 para. 1 lit.f DSGVO), which in most cases are of an economic nature. We want to give visitors to the website a pleasant user experience and certain cookies are often absolutely necessary for this.
Insofar as non-essential cookies are used, this will only happen with your consent. The legal basis in this respect is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
In the following sections you will be informed in more detail about the use of cookies if the software used uses cookies.
Web Hosting
|
Web hosting summary 👥 Affected: visitors to the website 🤝 Purpose: professional hosting of the website and security of operation 📓 Processed data: IP address, time of website visit, used Browser and other data. More details can be found below or from the web hosting provider used. 📅 Storage period: depends on the respective provider, but usually 2 weeks ⚖️ Legal basis: Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.f DSGVO (authorized interests) |
What is web hosting?
When you visit websites today, certain information - including personal data - is automatically created and stored, including on this website. This data should be processed as sparingly as possible and only with justification. By the way, by website we mean the entirety of all web pages on a domain, i.e. everything from the start page (homepage) to the very last subpage (like this one). By domain we mean, for example, example.de or example.com.
If you want to view a website on a screen, you use a program called a web browser. You probably know a few web browsers by name: Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple Safari.
This web browser needs to connect to another computer where the website's code is stored: the web server. The operation of a web server is a complicated and time-consuming task, which is why this is usually taken on by professional providers, the providers. These offer web hosting and thus ensure reliable and error-free storage of website data.
When the browser on your computer (desktop, laptop, smartphone) establishes a connection and during data transmission to and from the web server, personal data may be processed. On the one hand, your computer stores data, on the other hand, the web server also has to store data for a period of time in order to ensure proper operation.
For illustration:
Why do we process personal data?
The purposes of data processing are:
- Professional website hosting and operational security
- to maintain operational and IT security
- Anonymous evaluation of access behavior to improve our offer and, if necessary, for criminal prosecution or the pursuit of claims
What data is processed?
Even while you are visiting our website, our web server, which is the computer on which this website is stored, usually automatically saves data such as
- the complete internet address (URL) of the accessed website (e.g. https://www.beispielwebsite.de/beispielunterseite.html?tid=311829375)
- Browser and browser version (e.g. Chrome 87)
- the operating system used (e.g. Windows 10)
- the address (URL) of the previously visited page (referrer URL) (e.g. https://www.beispielquellsite.de/vondabinichkommen.html/)
- the hostname and IP address of the device being accessed from (e.g. COMPUTERNAME and 194.23.43.121)
- Date and time
- in files, the so-called web server log files
How long will data be stored?
As a rule, the above data is stored for two weeks and then automatically deleted. We do not pass on this data, but we cannot rule out that this data will be viewed by authorities in the event of illegal behavior.
In short: Your visit will be logged by our provider (company that runs our website on special computers (servers)), but we will not pass on your data without your consent!
Legal basis
The lawfulness of the processing of personal data in the context of web hosting results from Article 6 Paragraph 1 lit present it in a safe and user-friendly way and to be able to track attacks and claims from this if necessary.
There is usually a contract between us and the hosting provider for order processing in accordance with Art. 28 f. GDPR, which ensures compliance with data protection and guarantees data security.
Website modular systems
|
Website modular systems data protection declaration summary 👥 Affected parties: Visitors to the website 🤝 Purpose: Optimization of our service 📓 Processed data: Data such as technical usage information such as browser activity, clickstream activities, Session heat maps, as well as contact information, IP address, or your geographic location. More details can be found below in this data protection declaration and in the data protection declarations of the providers. 📅 Storage period: depends on the provider ⚖️ Legal basis: Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests), Art. 6 paragraph 1 lit. a GDPR (consent) |
What are website building blocks?
We use a modular website system for our website. Modular systems are special forms of a content management system (CMS). With a modular system, website operators can create a website very easily and without any programming knowledge. In many cases, web hosts also offer modular systems. By using a modular system, your personal data can also be collected, stored and processed. In this data protection text we give you general information about data processing by modular systems. For more information, see the provider's privacy policy.
Why do we use website building blocks for our website?
The biggest advantage of a modular system is its ease of use. We want to offer you a clear, simple and well-arranged website that we can easily operate and maintain ourselves - without external support. A modular system now offers many helpful functions that we can use even without programming knowledge. This allows us to design our web presence according to our wishes and offer you an informative and pleasant time on our website.
What data is stored by a modular system?
The exact data that is stored naturally depends on the website building block system used. Each provider processes and collects different data from the website visitor. However, technical usage information such as the operating system, browser, screen resolution, language and keyboard settings, hosting provider and the date of your website visit are usually collected. Tracking data (e.g. browser activity, clickstream activities, session heat maps, etc.) can also be processed. In addition, personal data can also be recorded and stored.This is usually contact data such as email address, telephone number (if you have provided this), IP address and geographic location data. You can find out exactly what data is stored in the provider's data protection declaration.
How long and where is the data stored?
We will inform you below about the duration of the data processing in connection with the modular website system used, provided that we have further information on this. You will find detailed information about this in the provider's data protection declaration. In general, we only process personal data for as long as is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and products. It may be that the provider stores your data according to its own specifications, over which we have no influence.
Right to object
You always have the right to information, correction and deletion of your personal data. If you have any questions, you can also contact those responsible for the modular website system used at any time. Contact details can be found either in our data protection declaration or on the website of the relevant provider.
Cookies that providers use for their functions can be deleted, deactivated or managed in your browser. Depending on which browser you use, this works in different ways. Please note, however, that not all functions may then work as usual.
Legal basis
We have a legitimate interest in using a modular website system to optimize our online service and present it in an efficient and user-friendly way for you. The corresponding legal basis for this is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use the kit if you have given your consent.
Insofar as the processing of data is not absolutely necessary for the operation of the website, the data will only be processed on the basis of your consent. This applies in particular to tracking activities. The legal basis in this respect is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
With this data protection declaration, we have brought you closer to the most important general information about data processing. If you would like more detailed information on this, you will find further information - if available - in the following section or in the data protection declaration of the provider.
Web Analytics
|
Web Analytics Privacy Policy Summary 👥 Affected: Website visitors 🤝 Purpose: Evaluation of visitor information to optimize the website. 📓 Processed data: Access statistics, data such as locations of access, device data, access duration and time, navigation behavior, click behavior and IP addresses. More details can be found in the web analytics tool used. 📅 Storage period: depends on the web analytics tool used ⚖️ Legal bases: Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent), Article 6(1) 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests) |
What is web analytics?
We use software on our website to evaluate the behavior of website visitors, referred to as web analytics or web analysis. In doing so, data is collected, which the respective analytical tool provider (also called tracking tool) stores, manages and processes. With the help of the data, analyzes of user behavior on our website are made and made available to us as the website operator. In addition, most tools offer various test options. For example, we can test which offers or content are best received by our visitors. For this we show you two different offers for a limited period of time.After the test (so-called A/B test) we know which product or content our website visitors find more interesting. For such test procedures, as well as for other analytics procedures, user profiles can also be created and the data stored in cookies.
Why do we run web analytics?
With our website, we have a clear goal in mind: we want to provide the best web offering on the market for our industry. In order to achieve this goal, on the one hand we want to offer the best and most interesting offer and on the other hand we want to make sure that you feel completely comfortable on our website. With the help of web analysis tools, we can take a closer look at the behavior of our website visitors and then improve our website for you and us accordingly. For example, we can see how old our visitors are on average, where they come from, when our website is visited the most or which content or products are particularly popular. All this information helps us to optimize the website and thus adapt it to your needs, interests and wishes.
What data is processed?
The exact data that is stored naturally depends on the analysis tools used. As a rule, however, what is stored is, for example, what content you view on our website, which buttons or links you click, when you call up a page, which browser you use, which device (PC, tablet, smartphone, etc.) you use Visit the website or what computer system you are using. If you agree that location data may also be collected, these can also be processed by the web analysis tool provider.
Your IP address will also be saved. According to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), IP addresses are personal data. However, your IP address is usually stored in pseudonymised form (i.e. in an unrecognizable and shortened form). For the purposes of testing, web analysis and web optimization, no direct data such as your name, age, address or e-mail address is stored. All of this data, if collected, is stored pseudonymised. In this way you cannot be identified as a person.
The following example shows how Google Analytics works as an example for client-based web tracking with Java Script code.
How long the respective data is stored always depends on the provider. Some cookies only store data for a few minutes or until you leave the website, other cookies can store data for several years.
Duration of data processing
We will inform you below about the duration of data processing if we have further information on this. In general, we only process personal data for as long as is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and products. If required by law, such as in the case of bookkeeping, this storage period can also be exceeded.
Right to object
You also have the right and the option to revoke your consent to the use of cookies or third-party providers at any time. This works either via our cookie management tool or via other opt-out functions. For example, you can also prevent data collection by cookies by managing, deactivating or deleting the cookies in your browser.
Legal basis
The use of web analytics requires your consent, which we have obtained with our cookie popup. According to Art. 6 para. 1 lit.a GDPR (consent) the legal basis for the processing of personal data, as it may occur when it is collected by web analytics tools,
In addition to consent, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing the behavior of website visitors and thus improving our offer technically and economically. With the help of web analytics, we can identify errors on the website, identify attacks and improve profitability. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use the tools if you have given your consent.
Since cookies are used in web analytics tools, we also recommend that you read our general privacy policy on cookies. To find out exactly what data is stored and processed by you, you should read the data protection declarations of the respective tools.
Information on special web analytics tools, if available, is available in the following sections.
Google Optimize Privacy Policy
We use Google Optimize, a website optimization tool, on our website. The service provider is the American company Google Inc. The company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services in Europe.
Google also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can pose various risks to the legality and security of data processing.
As the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there, Google uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. Paragraphs 2 and 3 GDPR). These clauses oblige Google to comply with EU data protection standards when processing relevant data outside of the EU. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the clauses here: https://ec.europa.eu/germany/news/20210604-datentransfers-eu_de.
You can find out more about the data processed using Google Optimize in the Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US .
Facebook Pixel Privacy Policy
We use the Facebook pixel from Facebook on our website. We have implemented code for this on our website. The Facebook pixel is a snippet of JavaScript code that loads a collection of functions that Facebook can use to track your user actions if you came to our website via Facebook ads. For example, when you purchase a product on our website, the Facebook pixel is triggered and stores your actions on our website in one or more cookies. These cookies enable Facebook to compare your user data (customer data such as IP address, user ID) with the data in your Facebook account. Then Facebook deletes this data again. The data collected is anonymous and cannot be viewed by us and can only be used in the context of placing advertisements. If you are a Facebook user yourself and are logged in, your visit to our website will automatically be assigned to your Facebook user account.
We only want to show our services and products to people who are really interested in them. With the help of Facebook pixels, our advertising measures can be better tailored to your wishes and interests.In this way, Facebook users (provided they have allowed personalized advertising) see appropriate advertising. Furthermore, Facebook uses the collected data for analysis purposes and its own advertisements.
In the following, we will show you the cookies that were set on a test page by integrating Facebook pixels. Please note that these are just example cookies. Depending on the interaction on our website, different cookies are set.

What is Google Analytics?
On our website we use the analysis tracking tool Google Analytics (GA) from the American company Google Inc. For Europe, the company is Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) for all Google services responsible. Google Analytics collects data about your actions on our website. For example, if you click on a link, this action is stored in a cookie and sent to Google Analytics. The reports we receive from Google Analytics allow us to better tailor our website and service to your needs. In the following we will go into more detail about the tracking tool and, above all, inform you about which data is stored and how you can prevent this.
Google Analytics is a tracking tool used to analyze data traffic on our website. In order for Google Analytics to work, a tracking code is built into the code of our website. When you visit our website, this code records various actions that you take on our website. As soon as you leave our website, this data is sent to the Google Analytics servers and stored there.
Google processes the data and we receive reports on your user behavior. These reports may include the following:
- Target group reports: We use target group reports to get to know our users better and know more precisely who is interested in our service.
- Ad reports: Ad reports make it easier for us to analyze and improve our online advertising.
- Acquisition Reports: Acquisition reports provide us with useful information on how to attract more people to our service.
- Behavioural Reports: Here we learn how you interact with our website. We can understand which path you take on our site and which links you click on.
- Conversion reports: Conversion is a process in which you perform a desired action based on a marketing message. For example, when you go from being a mere website visitor to a buyer or newsletter subscriber. These reports enable us to learn more about how our marketing measures are resonating with you. This is how we want to increase our conversion rate.
- Real-time reports: Here we always know immediately what is happening on our website. For example, we can see how many users are reading this text.
Why do we use Google Analytics on our website?
Our goal with this website is clear: we want to offer you the best possible service. The statistics and data from Google Analytics help us to achieve this goal.
The statistically evaluated data give us a clear picture of the strengths and weaknesses of our website. On the one hand, we can optimize our site so that interested people can find it more easily on Google. On the other hand, the data helps us to better understand you as a visitor.We therefore know exactly what we need to improve on our website in order to offer you the best possible service. The data also help us to carry out our advertising and marketing measures more individually and more cost-effectively. After all, it only makes sense to show our products and services to people who care.
What data is stored by Google Analytics?
Google Analytics uses a tracking code to create a random, unique ID associated with your browser cookie. This is how Google Analytics recognizes you as a new user. The next time you visit our site, you will be recognized as a "returning" user. All collected data is stored together with this user ID. This makes it possible to evaluate pseudonymous user profiles in the first place.
In order to be able to analyze our website with Google Analytics, a property ID must be included in the tracking code. The data is then stored in the corresponding property. For each newly created property, the Google Analytics 4 property is the default. Alternatively, you can also create the Universal Analytics property. Depending on the property used, data is stored for different lengths of time.
Tags such as cookies and app instance IDs are used to measure your interactions on our website. Interactions are any type of action you take on our website. If you also use other Google systems (such as a Google account), data generated via Google Analytics can be linked to third-party cookies. Google does not pass on Google Analytics data unless we as the website operator approve it. There may be exceptions if required by law.
The following cookies are used by Google Analytics:
Name: _ga
Value: 2.1326744211.152311829375-5
Purpose: By default, analytics.js uses the _ga cookie to store the save user ID. Basically, it is used to differentiate between website visitors.
Expiry date: after 2 years
Name: _gid
Value: 2.1687193234.152311829375-1
Purpose: The cookie is also used to distinguish between website visitors
Expiry date: after 24 hours
Name: _gat_gtag_UA_
Value: 1
Use: Used to lower request rate. If Google Analytics is provided via Google Tag Manager, this cookie is given the name _dc_gtm_ .

Name: __utmz
Value: m|utmccn=(referral)|utmcmd=referral|utmcct=/
Purpose: Das Cookie is used to identify the source of traffic to our website. This means that the cookie stores where you came from on our website. This may have been another page or an advertisement.
Expiry date: after 6 months
Name: __utmv
Value: not specified
Purpose: The cookie is used to save user-defined user data. It is always updated when information is sent to Google Analytics.
Expiry date: after 2 years
Note: This list cannot claim to be complete, as Google keeps changing the choice of its cookies.
Here we show you an overview of the most important data collected with Google Analytics:
Heatmaps: Google creates so-called heatmaps. Heatmaps show exactly those areas that you click on. This is how we get information about where you are on our site.
Session duration: Google describes the session duration as the time you spend on our site without leaving the site. If you have been inactive for 20 minutes, the session ends automatically.
Bounce rate: A bounce is when you only view one page on our website and then leave our website again.
Account creation: If you create an account or place an order on our website, Google Analytics collects this data.
IP address: The IP address is only displayed in abbreviated form so that no clear assignment is possible.
Location: The country and your approximate location can be determined via the IP address. This process is also known as IP location determination.
Technical information: The technical information includes, among other things, your browser type, your Internet provider or your screen resolution.
Source of origin: Google Analytics or we are of course also interested in which website or which advertisement you came to our site from.
Further data is contact details, any ratings, playing media (e.g. if you play a video on our site), sharing content via social media or adding it to your favorites. The list does not claim to be complete and only serves as a general guide to data storage by Google Analytics.
How long and where is the data stored?
Google has distributed their servers all over the world. Most of the servers are located in America and consequently your data is mostly stored on American servers. Here you can read exactly where the Google data centers are located: https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de
Your data is distributed across different physical media. This has the advantage that the data can be called up more quickly and is better protected against manipulation. Every Google data center has emergency programs for your data. For example, if Google's hardware fails or natural disasters paralyze servers, the risk of a service interruption at Google remains low.
The retention period of the data depends on the properties used. When using the newer Google Analytics 4 properties, the retention period of your user data is fixed at 14 months. For other so-called event data, we have the option of choosing a retention period of 2 months or 14 months.
With Universal Analytics properties, Google Analytics has a standardized retention period of 26 months for your user data. Then your user data will be deleted. However, we have the option of choosing the retention period for user data ourselves. We have five variants available for this:
- Deleted after 14 months
- Deleted after 26 months
- deletion after 38 months
- Deleted after 50 months
- No automatic deletion
There is also the option that data will only be deleted if you no longer visit our website within the period we have chosen. In this case, the retention period will be reset every time you visit our website again within the specified period.
When the specified period has expired, the data will be deleted once a month. This retention period applies to your data associated with cookies, user recognition and advertising IDs (e.g. cookies from the DoubleClick domain). Report results are based on aggregated data and are stored independently of user data. Aggregated data is a merging of individual data into a larger unit.
How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?
Under European Union data protection law, you have the right to access, update, delete or restrict your data. You can prevent Google Analytics from using your data by using the browser add-on to disable Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, dc.js). You can download and install the browser add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. Please note that this add-on only disables data collection by Google Analytics.
If you generally want to deactivate, delete or manage cookies (regardless of Google Analytics), there are separate instructions for each browser:
Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome
Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari
Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer
Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies
Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies
Legal basis
The use of Google Analytics requires your consent, which we have obtained with our cookie popup. According to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit
In addition to consent, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing the behavior of website visitors and thus improving our offer technically and economically. With the help of Google Analytics, we can identify errors on the website, identify attacks and improve profitability. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use Google Analytics if you have given your consent. Google also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA.This can entail various risks for the legality and security of data processing As the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there, Google uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. Paragraphs 2 and 3 GDPR). These clauses oblige Google to comply with EU data protection standards when processing relevant data outside of the EU. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the clauses here: https://ec.europa.eu/germany/news/20210604-datentransfers-eu_de. We hope we were able to give you the most important information about data processing by Google Analytics. If you want to learn more about the tracking service, we recommend these two links: http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html and https://support. google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de. We have implemented Google Analytics IP address anonymization on this website. This function was developed by Google so that this website can comply with applicable data protection regulations and recommendations from local data protection authorities if they prohibit the storage of the full IP address. The IP is anonymized or masked as soon as the IP addresses arrive in the Google Analytics data collection network and before the data is stored or processed. You can find more information on IP anonymization at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2763052?hl=de. We have turned on the advertising reporting features in Google Analytics. The Demographics and Interests reports include information about age, gender, and interests. This enables us to get a better picture of our users without being able to assign this data to individual persons. You can find out more about the advertising functions at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/3450482?hl=de_AT&utm_id=ad. You can stop the use of the activities and information from your Google account under "Advertising settings" on https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated by checking the box. We have entered into a direct customer agreement with Google for the use of Google Analytics by accepting the “Data Processing Amendment” in Google Analytics. You can find more about the data processing addendum for Google Analytics here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/3379636?hl=de&utm_id=ad We have activated the Google signals in Google Analytics. In this way, the existing Google Analytics functions (advertising reports, remarketing, cross-device reports and reports on interests and demographic characteristics) are updated to receive aggregated and anonymous data from you, provided you have allowed personalized ads in your Google account.
The special thing about it is that it is a cross-device tracking. That means your data can be analyzed across devices. By activating Google signals, data is collected and linked to the Google account. This allows Google to recognize, for example, when you view a product on our website using a smartphone and only later buy the product using a laptop.Thanks to the activation of Google signals, we can start cross-device remarketing campaigns that would otherwise not be possible in this form. Remarketing means that we can also show you our offer on other websites. In Google Analytics, additional visitor data such as location, search history, YouTube history and data about your actions on our website are also recorded by the Google signals. This gives us better advertising reports and more useful information about your interests and demographics from Google. This includes your age, what language you speak, where you live or what gender you belong to. There are also social criteria such as your job, your marital status or your income. All of these features help Google Analytics to define groups of people or target groups. The reports also help us to better assess your behavior, your wishes and interests. This enables us to optimize and adapt our services and products for you. By default, this data expires after 26 months. Please note that this data collection only takes place if you have allowed personalized advertising in your Google account. This is always aggregated and anonymous data and never personal data. You can manage or delete this data in your Google account. We use the Google Tag Manager from Google Inc. for our website. The company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services in Europe. This tag manager is one of many helpful marketing products from Google. Using the Google Tag Manager, we can centrally install and manage code sections from various tracking tools that we use on our website. In this privacy policy, we want to explain to you in more detail what the Google Tag Manager does, why we use it and how data is processed. The Google Tag Manager is an organizational tool that we can use to integrate and manage website tags centrally and via a user interface. Tags are small sections of code that, for example, record (track) your activities on our website. For this purpose, JavaScript code sections are used in the source code of our site. The tags often come from internal Google products such as Google Ads or Google Analytics, but tags from other companies can also be integrated and managed via the manager. Such tags take on different tasks. They can collect browser data, feed marketing tools with data, embed buttons, set cookies and also track users across multiple websites. As the saying goes: organization is half the battle! And of course that also applies to the maintenance of our website. In order to make our website as good as possible for you and all people who are interested in our products and services, we need various tracking tools such as Google Analytics.The data collected by these tools show us what interests you most, where we can improve our services and to whom we should still show our offers. And for this tracking to work, we have to integrate the appropriate JavaScript code into our website. In principle, we could integrate each code section of the individual tracking tools separately into our source code. However, this requires a relatively large amount of time and it is easy to lose track. That's why we use the Google Tag Manager. We can easily build in the necessary scripts and manage them from one place. In addition, the Google Tag Manager offers an easy-to-use user interface and you do not need any programming knowledge. This is how we manage to keep order in our tag jungle. The Tag Manager itself is a domain that does not set cookies and does not save any data. It acts as a mere "manager" of the implemented tags. The data is recorded by the individual tags of the different web analysis tools. The data is passed through to the individual tracking tools in the Google Tag Manager and not saved. However, the situation is completely different with the integrated tags of the various web analysis tools, such as Google Analytics. Depending on the analysis tool, various data about your web behavior is usually collected, stored and processed with the help of cookies. To do this, please read our data protection texts for the individual analysis and tracking tools that we use on our website. In the Tag Manager account settings, we have allowed Google to receive anonymous data from us. However, this only relates to the use and utilization of our tag manager and not to your data, which is stored via the code sections. We enable Google and others to receive selected data in an anonymous form. We therefore agree to the anonymous transfer of our website data. Despite extensive research, we were not able to find out exactly which summarized and anonymous data is forwarded. In any case, Google deletes all information that could identify our website. Google combines the data with hundreds of other anonymous website data and creates user trends as part of benchmarking measures. In benchmarking, your own results are compared with those of your competitors. Processes can be optimized on the basis of the information collected. When Google saves data, this data is saved on Google's own servers. The servers are spread all over the world. Most are in America. You can read exactly where the Google servers are located at https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de. You can find out how long the individual tracking tools store your data in our individual data protection texts for the individual tools. The Google Tag Manager itself does not set cookies, but manages tags from various tracking websites. In our data protection texts for the individual tracking tools, you will find detailed information on how to delete or manage your data. Please note that when using this tool, your data may also be stored and processed outside of the EU. Most third countries (including the USA) are not considered secure under current European data protection law.Data may not simply be transferred to unsafe third countries, stored there and processed unless there are suitable guarantees (such as EU standard contractual clauses) between us and the non-European service provider The use of the Google Tag Manager requires your consent, which we have obtained with our cookie popup. According to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit
In addition to consent, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing the behavior of website visitors and thus improving our offer technically and economically. With the help of Google Tag Managers you can improve profitability. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use the Google Tag Manager if you have given your consent. Google also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can pose various risks to the legality and security of data processing. As the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there, Google uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. Paragraphs 2 and 3 GDPR). These clauses oblige Google to comply with EU data protection standards when processing relevant data outside of the EU. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the clauses here: https://ec.europa.eu/germany/news/20210604-datentransfers-eu_de. If you want to learn more about the Google Tag Manager, we recommend the FAQs at https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/faq.html. In order to keep you up to date, we also use e-mail marketing. If you have agreed to receive our e-mails or newsletters, your data will also be processed and stored. Email marketing is a subset of online marketing. It involves emailing news or general information about a company, product, or service to a specific group of people who are interested. If you want to take part in our e-mail marketing (usually via newsletter), you usually just have to register with your e-mail address. To do this, fill out an online form and send it off. However, it can also happen that we ask you for your title and your name so that we can write to you personally. Basically, registering for newsletters works with the help of the so-called "double opt-in procedure".After you have registered for our newsletter on our website, you will receive an e-mail confirming your subscription to the newsletter. registered address. We or a notification tool used by us logs every single registration. This is necessary so that we can also prove the legally correct registration process. As a rule, the time of registration, the time of registration confirmation and your IP address are saved. In addition, it is also logged if you make changes to your saved data. Of course we want to stay in touch with you and always present you with the most important news about our company. Among other things, we use e-mail marketing – often just referred to as “newsletter” – as an essential part of our online marketing. If you consent to this or it is permitted by law, we will send you newsletters, system emails or other notifications by email. When we use the term "newsletter" in the following text, we mean mainly e-mails that are sent regularly. Of course we don't want to bother you in any way with our newsletter. That's why we always try to offer only relevant and interesting content. For example, you can find out more about our company, our services or products. Since we are always improving our offers, you will always find out via our newsletter when there is news or we are currently offering special, lucrative promotions. If we commission a service provider who offers a professional sending tool for our e-mail marketing, we do this in order to be able to offer you fast and secure newsletters. The purpose of our e-mail marketing is basically to inform you about new offers and also to get closer to our business goals. If you subscribe to our newsletter through our website, you will confirm membership in an email list by email. In addition to your IP address and e-mail address, your title, your name, your address and your telephone number can also be saved. However, only if you agree to this data storage. The data marked as such are necessary so that you can participate in the service offered. Providing this information is voluntary, but not providing it will result in you not being able to use the service. In addition, information about your device or your preferred content can be stored on our website. For more information about how we store data when you visit a website, see the Automatic Data Storage section. We record your declaration of consent so that we can always prove that it complies with our laws. If you remove your e-mail address from our e-mail/newsletter distribution list, we may store your address for up to three years on the basis of our legitimate interests so that we can still prove your consent at the time. We are only allowed to process this data if we have to defend ourselves against any claims. If you confirm, however, that you have given us your consent to subscribe to the newsletter, you can submit an individual deletion request at any time. If you object to the consent permanently, we reserve the right to save your e-mail address in a blacklist. As long as you have voluntarily subscribed to our newsletter, we will of course keep your e-mail address. You can cancel your subscription to the newsletter at any time.All you have to do is revoke your consent to registering for the newsletter. This normally only takes a few seconds or one or two clicks. Most of the time you will find a link at the end of each email to unsubscribe from the newsletter. If you really cannot find the link in the newsletter, please contact us by email and we will immediately cancel your newsletter subscription. Our newsletter is sent on the basis of your consent (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). This means that we may only send you a newsletter if you have previously actively registered for it. If necessary, we can also send you advertising messages on the basis of § 7 Para. 3 UWG, provided that you have become our customer and have not objected to the use of your e-mail address for direct advertising. Information on special e-mail marketing services and how they process personal data can be found - if available - in the following sections. We also use so-called push notification services on our website, with which we can always keep our users up to date. This means that if you have agreed to the use of such push messages, we can use a software tool to send you short news. Push messages are a form of text messages that appear directly on your smartphone or other devices such as tablets or PCs if you have signed up for them. You will also receive these messages if you are not on our website or are not actively using our offer. Data about your location and usage behavior can also be collected and stored. On the one hand, we use push notifications in order to be able to fully provide our services that we have contractually agreed with you. On the other hand, the messages also serve our online marketing. With the help of these messages we can bring you closer to our service or our products. Especially when there is news in our company, we can inform you about it immediately. We want to get to know the preferences and habits of all our users as well as possible in order to continuously improve our offer. In order to receive push messages, you must also confirm that you want to receive these messages. The data collected during the consent process is also stored, managed and processed. This is necessary so that it can be proven and recognized that a user has consented to receiving the push messages. For this purpose, a so-called device token or push token is stored in your browser. Usually, the data of your location or the location of the end device you are using is also stored. So that we always send interesting and important push messages, the handling of the messages is also statistically evaluated. For example, we can see if and when you open the message.With the help of these insights we can adapt our communication strategy to your wishes and interests. Although this stored data can be assigned to you, we do not want to check you as an individual. Rather, we are interested in the data collected from all our users so that we can make optimizations. You can find out exactly what data is stored in the data protection declarations of the respective service providers. How long the data is processed and stored depends primarily on the tool we use. Below you can find out more about the data processing of the individual tools. The data protection declarations of the providers usually state exactly which data is stored and processed for how long. In principle, personal data is only processed for as long as is necessary to provide our services. When data is stored in cookies, the storage period varies greatly. The data can be deleted immediately after leaving a website, but they can also be stored for several years. Therefore, you should look at each individual cookie in detail if you want to know more about data storage. In most cases, you will also find informative information about the individual cookies in the data protection declarations of the individual providers. It may also be that the push notifications are necessary so that certain obligations in a contract can be fulfilled. For example, so that we can communicate technical or organizational news to you. Then the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. If this is not the case, the push notifications will only be sent based on your consent. In particular, our push messages can have advertising content. The push messages can also be sent depending on your location, which your end device displays. The analytical evaluations mentioned above are also based on your consent to receive such messages. In this respect, the legal basis is Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. Of course, you can revoke your consent at any time in the settings or change various settings. Online marketing refers to all measures that are carried out online to achieve marketing goals such as increasing brand awareness or closing a deal. Furthermore, our online marketing measures aim to draw people's attention to our website. In order to be able to show our offer to many interested people, we do online marketing. This is mostly online advertising, content marketing or search engine optimization. Personal data is also stored and processed so that we can use online marketing efficiently and in a targeted manner.On the one hand, the data helps us to show our content only to those people who are interested in it and, on the other hand, we can measure the advertising success of our online marketing measures We want to show our website to everyone who is interested in what we have to offer. We are aware that this is not possible without deliberate measures. That's why we do online marketing. There are various tools that make it easier for us to work on our online marketing measures and, in addition, always provide suggestions for improvement via data. This allows us to target our campaigns more precisely to our target group. Ultimately, the purpose of these online marketing tools is to optimize our offer. So that our online marketing works and the success of the measures can be measured, user profiles are created and data is stored, for example, in cookies (small text files). With the help of this data, we can not only place advertising in the classic way, but also display our content directly on our website in the way you prefer. There are various third-party tools that offer these functions and collect and store data from you accordingly. The named cookies store, for example, which web pages you visited on our website, how long you viewed these pages, which links or buttons you clicked or from which website you came to us. In addition, technical information can also be stored. For example, your IP address, which browser you are using, which device you are using to visit our website or the time when you accessed our website and when you left it again. If you have agreed that we may also determine your location, we can also store and process this. Your IP address will be stored in pseudonymised form (i.e. abbreviated). Unique data that directly identifies you as a person, such as your name, address or email address, is only stored in a pseudonymised form as part of the advertising and online marketing process. So we cannot identify you as a person, we have only stored the pseudonymised, stored information in the user profiles. The cookies may also be used, analyzed and used for advertising purposes on other websites that work with the same advertising tools. The data can then also be stored on the servers of the advertising tool providers. In exceptional cases, unique data (name, email address, etc.) can also be stored in the user profiles. This storage occurs, for example, if you are a member of a social media channel that we use for our online marketing measures and the network connects previously received data with the user profile. With all the advertising tools we use that store data from you on their servers, we only ever receive aggregated information and never data that makes you identifiable as an individual. The data only show how well set advertising measures worked. For example, we can see what actions have persuaded you or other users to come to our website and purchase a service or product there. Based on the analyzes we can improve our advertising offer in the future and adapt it even more precisely to the needs and wishes of interested persons. We will inform you below about the duration of data processing if we have further information on this.In general, we only process personal data for as long as is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and products. Data stored in cookies are stored for different lengths of time. Some cookies are already deleted after leaving the website, others can be stored in your browser for several years. In the respective data protection declarations of the individual providers you will usually receive detailed information about the individual cookies that the provider uses. You also have the right and the option to revoke your consent to the use of cookies or third-party providers at any time. This works either via our cookie management tool or via other opt-out functions. For example, you can also prevent data collection by cookies by managing, deactivating or deleting the cookies in your browser. The lawfulness of the processing up to the point of revocation remains unaffected. Since cookies can usually be used with online marketing tools, we also recommend our general data protection declaration on cookies. To find out exactly what data is stored and processed by you, you should read the data protection declarations of the respective tools. If you have consented to the use of third-party providers, the legal basis for the corresponding data processing is this consent. According to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit

We use Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) as an online marketing measure to advertise our products and services. In this way we want to make more people aware of the high quality of our offers on the Internet. As part of our advertising measures through Google Ads, we use conversion tracking from Google Inc. on our website. In Europe, however, the company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. This free tracking tool allows us to better tailor our advertising to your interests and needs. In the following article we want to go into more detail about why we use conversion tracking, what data is stored and how you can prevent this data storage. Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) is the in-house online advertising system of Google Inc.We are convinced of the quality of our offer and want as many people as possible to get to know our website In the online area, Google Ads offers the best platform for this. Of course, we also want to get a precise overview of the cost-benefit factor of our advertising campaigns. That's why we use the Google Ads conversion tracking tool. But what actually is a conversion? A conversion occurs when you change from a purely interested website visitor to an acting visitor. This always happens when you click on our ad and then perform another action, such as visiting our website. We use Google's conversion tracking tool to record what happens after a user clicks on our Google Ads ad. For example, we can see whether products are being purchased, services are being used or whether users have signed up for our newsletter. We use Google Ads to draw attention to our offer on other websites. The aim is that our advertising campaigns really only reach those people who are interested in our offers. With the conversion tracking tool, we see which keywords, ads, ad groups and campaigns lead to the desired customer actions. We see how many customers interact with our ads on a device and then convert. This data enables us to calculate our cost-benefit factor, measure the success of individual advertising measures and consequently optimize our online marketing measures. With the help of the data obtained, we can also make our website more interesting for you and adapt our advertising offer even more individually to your needs. We have included a conversion tracking tag or code snippet on our website to better analyze certain user actions. If you now click on one of our Google Ads ads, the "Conversion" cookie from a Google domain will be stored on your computer (usually in the browser) or mobile device. Cookies are small text files that store information on your computer. Here are the data of the most important cookies for Google's conversion tracking: Name: Conversion Name: _gac Note: The _gac cookie only appears in connection with Google Analytics. The list above does not claim to be complete, since Google also uses other cookies for analytical evaluation. As soon as you complete an action on our website, Google recognizes the cookie and saves your action as a so-called conversion. As long as you surf our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google will recognize that you have found us via our Google Ads ad. The cookie is read and sent back to Google Ads with the conversion data. It is also possible that other cookies are used to measure conversions.Google Ads conversion tracking can be further refined and improved with the help of Google Analytics. Ads that Google displays in various places on the web may set cookies under our domain with the name “__gads” or “_gac”. Since September 2017, analytics.js has been storing various campaign information with the _gac cookie. The cookie saves this data as soon as you visit one of our pages for which Google Ads automatic tagging has been set up. Unlike cookies set for Google domains, Google can only read these conversion cookies when you are on our website. We do not collect or receive any personal data. We get a report from Google with statistical evaluations. For example, we learn the total number of users who clicked on our ad and we see which advertising measures were well received. At this point we would like to point out that we have no influence on how Google uses the collected data. According to Google, the data is encrypted and stored on secure servers. In most cases, conversion cookies expire after 30 days and do not transmit any personal data. The cookies named "Conversion" and "_gac" (used in connection with Google Analytics) have an expiry date of 3 months. You have the option not to participate in Google Ads conversion tracking. If you deactivate the Google conversion tracking cookie via your browser, you block the conversion tracking. In this case, you will not be included in the statistics of the tracking tool. You can change the cookie settings in your browser at any time. Each browser works a little differently. Here are the instructions on how to manage cookies in your browser: Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies If you generally do not want any cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. You can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow the cookie or not. Downloading and installing this browser plug-in at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/7395996 will also disable all "advertising cookies". Keep in mind that by disabling these cookies you will not prevent the ads, only the personalized advertising. If you have consented to the use of Google Ads Conversion Tracking, the legal basis for the corresponding data processing is this consent. According to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit
We also have a legitimate interest in using Google Ads Conversion Tracking to optimize our online service and our marketing activities. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use Google Ads Conversion Tracking if you have given your consent. Google also processes data in the USA, among other places.We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfers to the USA. This can be associated with various risks for the legality and security of data processing. As the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there, Google uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. Paragraphs 2 and 3 GDPR). These clauses oblige Google to comply with EU data protection standards when processing relevant data outside of the EU. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the clauses here: https://ec.europa.eu/germany/news/20210604-datentransfers-eu_de. If you would like to find out more about data protection at Google, we recommend Google's general data protection declaration: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de. We use Google AdSense on this website. This is an advertising program from Google Inc. In Europe, the company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. With Google AdSense, we can display advertisements on this website that match our topic. We offer you advertisements that ideally represent real added value for you. In the course of this data protection text about Google AdSense, we explain why we use Google AdSense on our website, which of your data is processed and stored and how you can prevent this data storage. The Google AdSense advertising program has been around since 2003. In contrast to Google Ads (formerly: Google AdWords), you cannot place your own advertising here. Advertisements on websites such as ours are played out via Google AdSense. The biggest advantage of this advertising service compared to some others is that Google AdSense only shows you ads that match our content. Google has its own algorithm that calculates which ads you see. Of course, we only want to show you advertising that interests you and offers added value. Based on your interests or your user behavior and based on our offer, Google checks which advertisements are suitable for our website and for our users. At this point we would also like to mention that we are not responsible for the selection of advertisements. With our website we only offer the advertising space. The selection of the displayed advertising is made by Google. Since August 2013, the ads have also been adapted to the respective user interface. This means that whether you visit our website from your smartphone, PC or laptop, the ads adapt to your end device. Running a quality website takes a lot of dedication and effort Basically, we never finish working on our website. We always try to maintain our site and keep it as up-to-date as possible. Of course, we also want to achieve economic success with this work. That's why we chose advertising as a source of income. However, the most important thing for us is that these ads do not disturb your visit to our website. With the help of Google AdSense, you will only be offered advertising that matches our topics and your interests. Similar to how Google indexes a website, a bot examines the appropriate content and offers on the page. The content of the advertisements is then adapted and presented. In addition to overlapping content between ads and website offerings, AdSense also supports interest-based targeting. This means that Google also uses your data to offer advertising tailored to you. In this way you receive advertising that ideally offers you real added value and we have a better chance of earning a little something. So that Google AdSense can display tailor-made advertising tailored to you, cookies are used, among other things. Cookies are small text files that store certain information on your computer. In AdSense, cookies are intended to enable better advertising. The cookies do not contain any personally identifiable data. It should be noted, however, that Google considers data such as "pseudonymous cookie IDs" (name or another identifier is replaced by a pseudonym) or IP addresses as non-personally identifiable information. However, within the framework of the GDPR, this data can be considered personal data. Google AdSense sends a cookie to the browser after every impression (this is always the case when you see an ad), every click and every other activity that leads to a call to the Google AdSense servers. If the browser accepts the cookie, it will be saved there. As part of AdSense, third-party providers may be able to place and read cookies in your browser or use web beacons to store data that they receive from the display of ads on the website. Web beacons are small graphics that analyze and record the log file. This analysis enables a statistical evaluation for online marketing. Google can use these cookies to collect certain information about your user behavior on our website. These include: In doing so, Google analyzes and evaluates the data on the advertising material displayed and your IP address. Google uses the data primarily to measure the effectiveness of an ad and to improve the advertising offer. This data is not linked to any personally identifiable information that Google may have about you through other Google services. In the following we present cookies that Google AdSense uses for tracking purposes. Here we refer to a test website that only has Google AdSense installed: Name: uid Name: C Name: cid Name: IDE Name: test_cookie Name: CT592996 Note: This list cannot claim to be complete, as experience has shown that Google changes the choice of its cookies again and again. Google records your IP address and various activities that you carry out on the website. Cookies store this information about the interactions on our website. According to Google, the company securely collects and stores the information provided on its own Google servers in the United States. If you do not have a Google account or are not logged in, Google usually stores the collected data on your browser with a unique identifier (ID). The unique IDs stored in cookies are used, for example, to ensure personalized advertising. If you are logged into a Google account, Google may also collect personal information. You can delete some of the data stored by Google at any time (see next section). A lot of information stored in cookies is automatically deleted after a certain period of time. However, there is also data that is stored by Google over a longer period of time. This is the case if Google has to store certain data for an indefinite longer period for economic or legal reasons. You always have the option of deleting or deactivating cookies that are on your computer. Exactly how this works depends on your browser. Here you will find instructions on how to manage cookies in your browser: Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies If you generally do not want any cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. This way you can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow the cookie or not. Downloading and installing this browser plug-in at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/7395996 will also disable all "advertising cookies". Keep in mind that by disabling these cookies you will not prevent the ads, only the personalized advertising. If you have a Google account, you can disable personalized advertising on the website https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated. Here, too, you will continue to see ads, but these will no longer be tailored to your interests. However, the ads are displayed based on a few factors, such as your location, browser type, and search terms used. If you have consented to the use of Google AdSense, the legal basis for the corresponding data processing is this consent. According to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit
We also have a legitimate interest in using Google AdSense to optimize our online service and our marketing activities. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use Google AdSense if you have given your consent. Google also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can pose various risks to the legality and security of data processing. As the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there, Google uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. Paragraphs 2 and 3 GDPR). These clauses oblige Google to comply with EU data protection standards when processing relevant data outside of the EU. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the clauses here: https://ec.europa.eu/germany/news/20210604-datentransfers-eu_de. You can read about what data Google collects and what they use this data for at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/. On this website we use plista from the company plista GmbH (Torstraße 33-35, 10119 Berlin, Germany) to display online advertising and interesting content that is relevant to you. Your data will be collected, stored and processed. In this data protection declaration we inform you why we use plista, what data is stored where and how you can manage or prevent this data processing. plista analyzes your visitor behavior on our website and, with the help of the collected data and real-time recommendation technology, ensures that you see suitable advertisements and suitable paid content (e.g. articles). plista recommends certain content or advertisements to visitors of plista network websites (such as this website) that are based on the analysis of the collected data that is collected or accessed on pages of the plista network. This is content that might interest you, content based on the interests of similar users and content that users have previously viewed on websites outside of the plista network. We want to offer you the best possible service and user experience (UX) on our website. For us, this also means that you only see content and advertisements that really interest you. With plista we can adapt advertisements and other content exactly to your wishes and interests. In this way we provide you with good content and achieve our corporate goals more easily and quickly. The plista services collect information about visitor behavior when visitors access, view and interact with websites of the plista network and advertisements. To do this, plista collects data that can be used to identify browsers and devices that repeatedly visit the pages of the plista network: The data collected by plista never includes the names, addresses, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses or similar data of the users and is not linked to such. It is therefore not possible for plista to draw conclusions about natural persons. In the following we show you the cookies that plista can set in your browser. The cookies found cannot claim to be complete and are only used as an example. Name: Pookie Name: Ploptout Name: rt11 Name: um Name: arv Name: rec Name: red Name: frc plista passes on visitor data (in particular the cookie ID assigned by us or the respective advertising ID) to selected third-party providers and service providers, for example in order to display special types of advertising and to improve our own services. All visitor data from the EU is stored on the plista servers in Germany. The plista targeting cookie has a storage period of one year and is automatically deleted after this period. All of your data will also be deleted or made anonymous no later than one year after it was collected and, in the latter case, can only be used for statistical purposes. You have the right to access and delete your personal data at any time. With the opt-out button on https://www.plista.com/de/ueber/opt-out you can prevent the collection of your data. You also have the option in your browser to prevent data processing by plista. As mentioned above, plista stores most of the data via cookies that are set in your browser. You can manage, disable or delete these cookies. Depending on which browser you have, the administration works a little differently. The instructions for the most common browsers can be found here: Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies You can also set up your browser so that you are always informed when a cookie is to be set. Then you can always decide individually whether you want to allow the cookie or not. If you have consented to the use of plista, the legal basis for the corresponding data processing is this consent. According to Art. 6 para. 1 lit.a GDPR (consent) represents the legal basis for the processing of personal data, as it may occur when it is collected by plista We also have a legitimate interest in using plista to optimize our online service and our marketing measures. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use plista if you have given your consent. We have tried to give you the most important information about data processing by plista. You can find out more about the company's data protection guidelines at https://www.plista.com/de/ueber/privacy. We use blogs or other means of communication on our website with which we can communicate with you on the one hand and you can also communicate with us on the other. Your data can also be stored and processed by us. This may be necessary so that we can display content appropriately, communication works and security is increased. In our data protection text we go into general information about which of your data can be processed. Exact information on data processing always depends on the tools and functions used. You will find detailed information about data processing in the data protection notices of the individual providers. Our greatest concern with our website is to offer you interesting and exciting content and at the same time your opinions and content are important to us. That's why we want to create a good interactive exchange between us and you. With various blogs and publication options, we can achieve exactly that. For example, you can comment on our content, comment on others' comments, or in some cases, make posts yourself. Exactly which data is processed always depends on the communication functions we use. Very often IP address, username and the published content are saved. This is done primarily to ensure security protection, to prevent spam and to be able to take action against illegal content. Cookies can also be used for data storage. These are small text files that are stored with information in your browser. You can find more information about the collected and stored data in our individual sections and in the data protection declaration of the respective provider. We will inform you below about the duration of data processing if we have further information on this. For example, post and comment functions store data until you revoke data storage. In general, personal data is only stored for as long as is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services. You also have the right and the option to revoke your consent to the use of cookies or third-party communication tools at any time. This works either via our cookie management tool or via other opt-out functions. For example, you can also prevent data collection by cookies by managing, deactivating or deleting the cookies in your browser. Since cookies can also be used in publication media, we also recommend our general data protection declaration on cookies. To find out exactly what data is stored and processed by you, you should read the data protection declarations of the respective tools. We use the means of communication mainly on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) in fast and good communication with you or other customers, business partners and visitors. Insofar as the use serves to process contractual relationships or to initiate them, the legal basis is also Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 lit. b. GDPR. Certain processing, in particular the use of cookies and the use of comment or message functions, require your consent. If and to the extent that you have consented to data being processed and stored by integrated publication media, this consent is the legal basis for data processing (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). Most of the communication features we use set cookies on your browser to store data. We therefore recommend that you read our privacy statement on cookies carefully and consult the relevant service provider's privacy statement or cookie policy. You can find information on special tools - if available - in the following sections. We use Consent Management Platform (CMP) software on our website, which makes it easier for us and you to handle the scripts and cookies used correctly and securely. The software automatically creates a cookie pop-up, scans and controls all scripts and cookies, offers you cookie consent required by data protection law and helps us and you to keep track of all cookies. Most cookie consent management tools identify and categorize all existing cookies. As a website visitor, you then decide for yourself whether and which scripts and cookies you want to allow or not. The following graphic represents the relationship between browser, web server and CMP. Our goal is to offer you the best possible transparency in the area of data protection. We are also legally obliged to do so. We want to inform you as well as possible about all tools and all cookies that can store and process data from you.It is also your right to decide for yourself which cookies you accept and which not. In order to give you this right, we first need to know exactly which cookies have landed on our website in the first place. Thanks to a cookie management tool, which regularly scans the website for all existing cookies, we know about all cookies and can provide you with information about them in accordance with the GDPR. You can then accept or reject cookies via the consent system. As part of our cookie management tool, you can manage each individual cookie yourself and have complete control over the storage and processing of your data.

We use online payment systems on our website, which enable us and you to make a secure and smooth payment process. Among other things, personal data can be sent to the respective payment provider, stored and processed there. Payment providers are online payment systems that enable you to place an order via online banking. The payment processing is carried out by the payment provider you have chosen. We will then receive information about the payment made. Any user who has an active online banking account with PIN and TAN can use this method. There are hardly any banks that do not offer or accept such payment methods. Of course we want to offer the best possible service with our website and our integrated online shop, so that you feel comfortable on our site and use our offers. We know that your time is precious and that payment processing in particular has to work quickly and smoothly. For these reasons, we offer you various payment providers. You can choose your preferred payment provider and pay in the usual way. The exact data that is processed naturally depends on the respective payment provider. Basically, however, data such as name, address, bank details (account number, credit card number, passwords, TANs, etc.) are stored. This is necessary data in order to be able to carry out a transaction at all. In addition, any contract data and user data, such as when you visit our website, what content you are interested in or which subpages you click on, can also be stored. Most payment providers also store your IP address and information about the computer you are using. The data is usually stored and processed on the servers of the payment providers. As the website operator, we do not receive this data. We are only informed whether the payment worked or not. For identity and credit checks, payment providers may forward data to the appropriate authority. The business and data protection principles of the respective provider always apply to all payment transactions. Therefore, please always take a look at the general terms and conditions and the data protection declaration of the payment provider. You also have the right, for example, to have data deleted or corrected at any time.Please contact the respective service provider regarding your rights (right of revocation, right to information and right to be affected) We will inform you below about the duration of data processing if we have further information on this. In general, we only process personal data for as long as is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and products. If it is required by law, for example in the case of accounting, this storage period can also be exceeded. We keep accounting documents (invoices, contract documents, bank statements, etc.) belonging to a contract for 10 years (§ 147 AO) and other relevant business documents for 6 years (§ 247 HGB) after they have been incurred. You always have the right to information, correction and deletion of your personal data. If you have any questions, you can also contact the person responsible for the payment provider used at any time. You can find contact details either in our specific privacy policy or on the website of the relevant payment provider. Cookies that payment providers use for their functions can be deleted, deactivated or managed in your browser. Depending on which browser you use, this works in different ways. Please note, however, that the payment process may then no longer work. We therefore offer other payment service providers in addition to the conventional bank/credit institutions for the processing of contractual or legal relationships (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO) . The data protection declarations of the individual payment providers (such as Amazon Payments, Apple Pay or Discover) provide you with a detailed overview of data processing and data storage.

In addition to our other payment providers, we have found a partner in Stripe that guarantees secure and fast payment processing. If you choose Stripe as your payment method, your personal data will also be transmitted to Stripe and stored there. This is transaction data. This information includes, for example, the payment method (i.e. credit card, debit card or account number), sort code, currency, amount and date of payment. A transaction may also include your name, email address, billing or shipping address, and sometimes your transaction history. This data is required for authentication.

Stripe does not sell any of your data to independent third parties such as marketing agencies or other companies unrelated to Stripe business.

Here is a selection of cookies that Stripe can set during the payment process: Name: m Name: __stripe_mid Name: __stripe_sid Personal data is generally stored for the duration of the service provision. This means that the data will be stored until we terminate the cooperation with Stripe. However, in order to fulfill legal and official obligations, Stripe can also store personal data for the duration of the service provision. Since Stripe is a global company, data may also be stored in any country where Stripe offers services. This means that data can also be stored outside of your country, for example in the USA. Please note that when using this tool, your data may also be stored and processed outside of the EU. Most third countries (including the USA) are not considered secure under current European data protection law. Data may not simply be transferred to unsafe third countries, stored there and processed unless there are suitable guarantees (such as EU standard contractual clauses) between us and the non-European service provider. You always have the right to information, correction and deletion of your personal data.

If you make an immediate transfer using the Sofort/Klarna service, data such as name, account number, bank code, subject, amount and date are stored on the company's servers. We also receive this information via the payment confirmation. As part of the account coverage check, Sofort GmbH checks whether your account balance and overdraft facility cover the payment amount. In some cases, it is also checked whether instant transfers have been successfully carried out in the last 30 days.Furthermore, your user identification (such as user number or contract number) in abbreviated (“hashed”) form and your IP address are collected and stored. In the case of SEPA transfers, the BIC and IBAN are also stored. According to the company, no other personal data (such as account balances, sales data, credit limits, account lists, mobile phone number, authentication certificates, security codes or PIN/TAN) are collected, stored or passed on to third parties. Sofortüberweisung also uses cookies to make our own service more user-friendly. When you order a product, you will be redirected to the Sofort or Klarna website.

If you want to find out more about the data processing by Sofort GmbH's "Sofortüberweisung" company, we recommend the data protection declaration at https://wwwsofort.de/datenschutz.html. In addition to our website, we are also active on various social media platforms. Data from users can be processed so that we can specifically address users who are interested in us via the social networks. In addition, elements of a social media platform may also be embedded directly into our website. This is the case, for example, if you click on a so-called social button on our website and are forwarded directly to our social media presence. So-called social media or social media refers to websites and apps through which registered members can produce content, exchange content openly or in certain groups and network with other members. For years, social media platforms have been where people communicate and connect online. With our social media appearances, we can bring our products and services closer to interested parties. The social media elements embedded on our website help you to be able to switch to our social media content quickly and without complications. The data that is stored and processed as a result of your use of a social media channel is primarily intended to be able to carry out web analyses. The aim of these analyzes is to be able to develop more precise and personal marketing and advertising strategies. Depending on your behavior on a social media platform, the evaluated data can be used to draw appropriate conclusions about your interests and so-called user profiles can be created. It is also possible for the platforms to present you with customized advertisements. In most cases, cookies are set in your browser for this purpose, which store data on your usage behavior. We generally assume that we remain responsible under data protection law, even if we use the services of a social media platform. However, the European Court of Justice has decided that in certain cases the operator of the social media platform can be jointly responsible with us within the meaning of Art. 26 DSGVO. If this is the case, we will point this out separately and work on the basis of a relevant agreement. The essence of the agreement is then reproduced below for the platform concerned. Please note that when using the social media platforms or our built-in elements, your data may also be processed outside the European Union, as many social media channels, such as Facebook or Twitter, are American companies. As a result, you may not be able to claim or enforce your rights in relation to your personal data as easily. Exactly what data is stored and processed depends on the respective provider of the social media platform. But usually it is data such as telephone numbers, e-mail addresses, data that you enter in a contact form, user data such as For example, which buttons you click, who you like or follow, when you visited which pages, information about your device and your IP address. Most of this data is stored in cookies. Especially if you have a profile on the visited social media channel and are logged in, data can be linked to your profile. All data collected via a social media platform is also stored on the providers' servers. This means that only the providers have access to the data and can give you the right information or make changes. If you want to know exactly what data is stored and processed by the social media providers and how you can object to the data processing, you should read the company's data protection declaration carefully. Even if you have questions about data storage and data processing or want to assert corresponding rights, we recommend that you contact the provider directly. We will inform you below about the duration of data processing if we have further information on this. For example, the social media platform Facebook stores data until it is no longer needed for its own purposes. Customer data that is compared with your own user data will be deleted within two days. In general, we only process personal data for as long as is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and products. If required by law, such as in the case of bookkeeping, this storage period can also be exceeded. You also have the right and the ability to revoke your consent to the use of cookies or third-party providers such as embedded social media elements at any time. This works either via our cookie management tool or via other opt-out functions. For example, you can also prevent data collection by cookies by managing, deactivating or deleting the cookies in your browser. Since cookies can be used with social media tools, we also recommend our general data protection declaration on cookies. To find out exactly what data is stored and processed by you, you should read the data protection declarations of the respective tools. If you have agreed that your data can be processed and stored by integrated social media elements, this consent is the legal basis for data processing (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) . In principle, if you have given your consent, your data will also be stored and processed on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) in quick and effective communication with you or other customers and business partners. However, we only use the tools if you have given your consent. Most social media platforms also set cookies on your browser to store data. We therefore recommend that you read our privacy statement on cookies carefully and consult the relevant service provider's privacy statement or cookie policy. You can find information on special social media platforms - if available - in the following sections. We use selected Facebook tools on our website. Facebook is a social media network operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2 Ireland. These tools allow us to offer you and people who are interested in our products and services the best possible offer. If data is collected and forwarded from you via our embedded Facebook elements or via our Facebook page (fan page), both we and Facebook Ireland Ltd. responsible for. Facebook is solely responsible for the further processing of this data. Our shared commitments have also been enshrined in a publicly available agreement at https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum. It states, for example, that we must clearly inform you about the use of Facebook tools on our site. Furthermore, we are also responsible for ensuring that the tools are securely integrated into our website in accordance with data protection law. Facebook, on the other hand, is responsible for the data security of Facebook products, for example. If you have any questions about data collection and data processing by Facebook, you can contact the company directly. If you direct the question to us, we are obliged to forward it to Facebook. In the following we give an overview of the various Facebook tools, what data is sent to Facebook and how you can delete this data. In addition to many other products, Facebook also offers the so-called "Facebook Business Tools". This is the official name of Facebook. But since the term is hardly known, we have decided to just call them Facebook tools. These include: Through these tools, Facebook expands its services and has the ability to obtain information about user activities outside of Facebook. We only want to show our services and products to people who are really interested in them. With the help of advertisements (Facebook ads) we can reach exactly these people. In order to be able to show users appropriate advertising, however, Facebook needs information about people's wishes and needs. In this way, information about user behavior (and contact details) is made available to the company on our website. As a result, Facebook collects better user data and can show interested people appropriate advertising about our products or services. The tools thus enable tailor-made advertising campaigns on Facebook. Facebook calls data about your behavior on our website “event data” This is also used for measurement and analysis services. Facebook can thus create "campaign reports" on our behalf about the effect of our advertising campaigns. Furthermore, through analyzes we get a better insight into how you use our services, website or products. As a result, we use some of these tools to optimize your user experience on our website. For example, you can use the social plug-ins to share content on our site directly on Facebook. By using individual Facebook tools, personal data (customer data) can be sent to Facebook. Depending on the tools used, customer data such as name, address, telephone number and IP address can be sent. Facebook uses this information to match the data with the data it has from you (if you are a Facebook member). Before customer data is transmitted to Facebook, so-called "hashing" takes place. This means that a data set of any size is transformed into a character string. This is also used to encrypt data. In addition to the contact details, "event data" is also transmitted. "Event data" means the information that we receive about you on our website. For example, which subpages you visit or which products you buy from us. Facebook does not share the information it receives with third parties (such as advertisers) unless the company has explicit permission or is legally required to do so. "Event data" may also be associated with contact information. This allows Facebook to offer better personalized advertising. After the matching process already mentioned, Facebook deletes the contact data again. In order to be able to deliver advertisements in an optimized way, Facebook only uses the event data if it has been combined with other data (which was collected by Facebook in another way). Facebook also uses this event data for security, protection, development and research purposes. Much of this data is transmitted to Facebook via cookies. Cookies are small text files that are used to store data or information in browsers. Depending on the tools used and whether you are a Facebook member, a different number of cookies will be created in your browser. In the descriptions of the individual Facebook tools, we go into more detail about individual Facebook cookies. You can also find general information about the use of Facebook cookies at https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies. Basically, Facebook stores data until it is no longer required for its own services and Facebook products. Facebook has servers all over the world where its data is stored. However, customer data will be deleted within 48 hours after it has been compared with your own user data. According to the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to information, correction, transferability and deletion of your data. The data will only be completely deleted if you completely delete your Facebook account. And this is how deleting your Facebook account works: 1) Click Settings on the right side of Facebook. 2) Then click on "Your Facebook information" in the left column. 3) Now click “Deactivation and Deletion”. 4) Now select "Delete account" and then click on "Next and delete account" 5) Now enter your password, click on "Next" and then on "Delete account" The data that Facebook receives via our site is stored, among other things, via cookies (e.g. with social plugins). You can deactivate, delete or manage individual or all cookies in your browser. Depending on which browser you use, this works in different ways. The following instructions show how to manage cookies in your browser: Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies If you generally do not want any cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. So you can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow it or not. If you have agreed that your data can be processed and stored by integrated Facebook tools, this consent is the legal basis for data processing (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). In principle, your data will also be stored and processed on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) in quick and effective communication with you or other customers and business partners. However, we only use the tools if you have given your consent. Most social media platforms also set cookies on your browser to store data. We therefore recommend that you read our privacy statement on cookies carefully and consult Facebook's privacy policy or cookie policy. Facebook also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can pose various risks to the legality and security of data processing. Facebook uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. Paragraphs 2 and 3 GDPR). These clauses oblige Facebook to comply with EU data protection standards when processing relevant data outside of the EU. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the clauses here: https://ec.europa.eu/germany/news/20210604-datentransfers-eu_de. We hope we have given you the most important information about the use and data processing by the Facebook tools. If you want to learn more about how Facebook uses your data, we recommend the data guidelines at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/update. We have integrated Instagram functions on our website. Instagram is a social media platform operated by Instagram LLC, 1601 Willow Rd, Menlo Park CA 94025, USA. Instagram has been a subsidiary of Facebook Inc. since 2012 and is one of the Facebook products. Embedding Instagram content on our website is called embedding. This enables us to show you content such as buttons, photos or videos from Instagram directly on our website. If you call up web pages on our website that have an integrated Instagram function, data will be transmitted to Instagram, stored and processed. Instagram uses the same systems and technologies as Facebook. Your data will thus be processed across all Facebook companies. In the following, we would like to give you a more detailed insight into why Instagram collects data, what data it is and how you can largely control the data processing. Since Instagram belongs to Facebook Inc., we get our information from the Instagram guidelines on the one hand, but also from the Facebook data guidelines on the other hand. Instagram is one of the most well-known social media networks in the world. Instagram combines the advantages of a blog with the advantages of audiovisual platforms such as YouTube or Vimeo. You can upload photos and short videos to “Insta” (as many users casually call the platform), edit them with various filters and also share them on other social networks. And if you don't want to be active yourself, you can just follow other interesting users. Instagram is the social media platform that has really taken off in recent years. And of course we also reacted to this boom. We want you to feel as comfortable as possible on our website. Therefore, a varied preparation of our content is a matter of course for us. The embedded Instagram functions allow us to enrich our content with helpful, funny or exciting content from the Instagram world. Since Instagram is a subsidiary of Facebook, the data collected can also be useful for personalized advertising on Facebook. This way, our ads only get to people who are genuinely interested in our products or services. Instagram also uses the collected data for measurement and analysis purposes. We get summarized statistics and thus more insight into your wishes and interests. It is important to note that these reports do not identify you personally. If you come across one of our pages that has Instagram functions (such as Instagram images or plug-ins) built in, your browser will automatically connect to Instagram's servers. Data is sent to Instagram, stored and processed. This is regardless of whether you have an Instagram account or not. This includes information about our website, about your computer, about purchases made, about advertisements that you see and how you use our offer. Furthermore, the date and time of your interaction with Instagram are also saved. If you have an Instagram account or are logged in, Instagram stores significantly more data about you. Facebook distinguishes between customer data and event data. We assume that this is the case with Instagram as well. Customer data are, for example, name, address, telephone number and IP address. This customer data will only be transmitted to Instagram if it has been "hashed" beforehand.Hashing means that a data record is converted into a character string. This allows the contact data to be encrypted. In addition, the “event data” mentioned above are also transmitted. Facebook – and consequently also Instagram – understands “event data” to be data about your user behavior. It can also happen that contact data is combined with event data. The contact data collected will be compared with the data that Instagram already has from you. The collected data is transmitted to Facebook via small text files (cookies), which are usually set in your browser. Depending on the Instagram functions used and whether you have an Instagram account yourself, different amounts of data are stored. We assume that data processing on Instagram works in the same way as on Facebook. This means: if you have an Instagram account or have visited www.instagram.com, Instagram has set at least one cookie. If this is the case, your browser sends information to Instagram via the cookie as soon as you come into contact with an Instagram function. This data will be deleted or made anonymous again after 90 days at the latest (after comparison). Although we have dealt intensively with Instagram's data processing, we cannot say exactly which data Instagram collects and stores. In the following we show you cookies that are set in your browser at least when you click on an Instagram function (such as a button or an Insta image). In our test, we assume that you do not have an Instagram account. Of course, if you are logged into Instagram, significantly more cookies will be set in your browser. These cookies were used in our test: Name: csrftoken Name: mid Name: fbsr_311829375124024 Name: rur Name: urlgen Note: We cannot claim completeness here. Which cookies are set in the individual case depends on the embedded functions and your use of Instagram. Instagram shares the information it receives between the Facebook companies with external partners and with people you connect with around the world. Data processing is carried out in compliance with our own data policy. For security reasons, among other things, your data is distributed across the world on Facebook servers. Most of these servers are in the US. Thanks to the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to information, transferability, correction and deletion of your data. You can manage your data in the Instagram settings. If you want to completely erase your data on Instagram, you need to permanently delete your Instagram account. And this is how the Instagram account deletion works: First open the Instagram app. On your profile page, go down and click on "Help Center". You are now on the company's website. On the webpage, click "Manage Account" and then click "Delete Your Account". If you delete your account entirely, Instagram will delete posts such as your photos and status updates. Information that other people have shared about you does not belong to your account and will therefore not be deleted. As mentioned above, Instagram primarily stores your data via cookies. You can manage, deactivate or delete these cookies in your browser. Management always works a bit differently depending on your browser. Here we show you the instructions for the most important browsers. Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies You can also set up your browser so that you are always informed when a cookie is to be set. Then you can always decide individually whether you want to allow the cookie or not. If you have agreed that your data can be processed and stored by integrated social media elements, this consent is the legal basis for data processing (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) . In principle, your data will also be stored and processed on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) in quick and effective communication with you or other customers and business partners. However, we only use the integrated social media elements if you have given your consent. Most social media platforms also set cookies on your browser to store data. We therefore recommend that you read our privacy statement on cookies carefully and consult the relevant service provider's privacy statement or cookie policy. Instagram and Facebook also process data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can pose various risks to the legality and security of data processing. Facebook uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. Paragraphs 2 and 3 GDPR).

We have tried to give you the most important information about data processing by Instagram. On https://help.instagram.com/519522125107875 On our website we use buttons and widgets from the social media network Pinterest, owned by Pinterest Inc., 808 Brannan Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. For the European area, the Irish company Pinterest Europe Ltd. (Palmerston House, 2nd Floor, Fenian Street, Dublin 2, Ireland) responsible for all data protection-related aspects. Pinterest is a social network specializing in graphics and photographs. The name is made up of the two words "pin" and "interest". Users can exchange ideas about various hobbies and interests via Pinterest and view the respective profiles with pictures openly or in defined groups. Pinterest has been around for a few years now and this social media platform is still one of the most visited and valued platforms. Pinterest is particularly suitable for our industry because the platform is primarily known for beautiful and interesting pictures. That's why we are of course also represented on Pinterest and want to present our content appropriately off our website as well. The data collected can also be used for advertising purposes, so that we can show advertising messages to precisely those people who are interested in our services or products. So-called log data can be saved. This includes information about your browser, IP address, the address of our website and the activities carried out on it (for example if you click the save or pin button), search histories, date and time of the request and cookie and device data. If you interact with an embedded Pinterest function, cookies that store various data can also be set in your browser. Most of the time, the above log data, language preferences and clickstream data are stored in cookies. By clickstream data, Pinterest understands information about your website behavior. If you have a Pinterest account yourself and are logged in, the data collected through our site may be added to your account and used for advertising purposes. If you interact with our integrated Pinterest functions, you will usually be redirected to the Pinterest page. Here you can see a sample selection of cookies that are then set in your browser. Name: _auth Name: _pinterest_referrer Name: _pinterest_sess Name: _routing_id Name: cm_sub Name: csrftoken Name: sessionFunnelEventLogged Pinterest generally stores the collected data until it is no longer needed for the purposes of the company. As soon as data storage is no longer necessary, for example to comply with legal regulations, the data will either be deleted or made anonymous so that you can no longer be identified as a person. The data can also be stored on American servers. You also have the right and the option to revoke your consent to the use of cookies or third-party providers such as Pinterest at any time. This works either via our cookie management tool or via other opt-out functions. For example, you can also prevent data collection by cookies by managing, deactivating or deleting the cookies in your browser. Since cookies can be used for embedded Pinterest elements, we also recommend our general data protection declaration on cookies.

We have embedded YouTube videos on our website. This allows us to present you with interesting videos directly on our site. YouTube is a video portal that has been a subsidiary of Google since 2006. The video portal is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. If you call up a page on our website that has an embedded YouTube video, your browser automatically connects to the YouTube or Google servers. Various data are transmitted (depending on the settings). Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all data processing in Europe. In the following we would like to explain to you in more detail which data is processed, why we have integrated YouTube videos and how you can manage or delete your data. On YouTube, users can watch videos, rate them, comment on them and upload them themselves free of charge. Over the past few years, YouTube has become one of the most important social media channels worldwide. In order for us to be able to display videos on our website, YouTube provides a code snippet that we have included on our site. YouTube is the video platform with the most visitors and the best content. We strive to offer you the best possible user experience on our website. And of course interesting videos should not be missing. With the help of our embedded videos, we provide you with additional helpful content in addition to our texts and images. In addition, our website can be found more easily on the Google search engine thanks to the embedded videos. Even if we place advertisements via Google Ads, thanks to the data collected, Google can really only show these advertisements to people who are interested in our offers. As soon as you visit one of our pages that has a YouTube video installed, YouTube sets at least one cookie that stores your IP address and our URL.If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can usually use cookies to associate your interactions on our website with your profile. This includes data such as session duration, bounce rate, approximate location, technical information such as browser type, screen resolution or your Internet provider. Other data can be contact details, any ratings, sharing content via social media or adding it to your favorites on YouTube. If you are not signed into a Google account or a Youtube account, Google stores data with a unique identifier associated with your device, browser or app. For example, your preferred language setting is retained. But a lot of interaction data cannot be saved because fewer cookies are set. In the following list we show cookies that were set in a test in the browser. On the one hand, we show cookies that are set without a registered YouTube account. On the other hand, we show cookies that are set with a logged-in account. The list cannot claim to be complete because the user data always depends on the interactions on YouTube. Name: YSC Name: PREF Name: GPS Name: VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE Other cookies that are set when you are logged in with your YouTube account: Name: APISID Name: CONSENT Name: HSID Name: LOGIN_INFO Name: SAPISID Name: SID Name: SIDCC The data that YouTube receives from you and processes is stored on the Google servers. Most of these servers are located in America. Under https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de you can see exactly where the Google data centers are located. Your data is distributed on the servers. This means that the data can be called up more quickly and is better protected against manipulation. Google stores the collected data for different lengths of time. You can delete some data at any time, others are automatically deleted after a limited period of time and others are stored by Google for a longer period of time. Some data (such as My Activity items, photos or documents, products) stored in your Google Account will remain stored until you delete it. Even if you're not signed in to a Google account, you can delete some data associated with your device, browser, or app. Basically, you can delete data in the Google account manually. With the automatic deletion of location and activity data introduced in 2019, information is stored for either 3 or 18 months and then deleted, depending on your decision. Regardless of whether you have a Google account or not, you can configure your browser in such a way that Google cookies are deleted or deactivated. Depending on which browser you use, this works in different ways. The following instructions show how to manage cookies in your browser: Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies If you generally do not want any cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. So you can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow it or not.

In principle, your data will also be stored and processed on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) in quick and effective communication with you or other customers and business partners. However, we only use the integrated YouTube elements if you have given your consent. YouTube also sets cookies in your browser to store data. We therefore recommend that you read our privacy statement on cookies carefully and consult the relevant service provider's privacy statement or cookie policy.

Because YouTube is a subsidiary of Google, there is a common privacy policy. If you want to find out more about how your data is handled, we recommend the data protection declaration at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de. We have installed the YouTube subscribe button on our website. You can usually recognize the button by the classic YouTube logo. The logo shows the words "Subscribe" or "YouTube" in white letters on a red background and the white "Play" symbol to the left of it. However, the button can also be displayed in a different design. Our YouTube channel always offers you funny, interesting or exciting videos. With the built-in "subscribe button" you can subscribe to our channel directly from our website and do not have to call up the YouTube website separately. We want to make it as easy as possible for you to access our extensive content. Please note that this allows YouTube to store and process data from you. If you see a built-in subscribe button on our site, YouTube sets at least one cookie, according to Google. This cookie stores your IP address and our URL. YouTube can also find out information about your browser, your approximate location and your default language in this way. In our test, the following four cookies were set without being logged in to YouTube: Name: YSC Name: PREF Name: GPS Name: VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE Note: These cookies were set after a test and cannot claim to be complete. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can store many of your actions/interactions on our website using cookies and assign them to your YouTube account.This gives YouTube information, for example, on how long you surf our site, what type of browser you use, what screen resolution you prefer or what actions you take YouTube uses this data on the one hand to improve its own services and offers and on the other hand to provide analyzes and statistics for advertisers (who use Google Ads). We use Google Maps from Google Inc. on our website. The company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services in Europe. With Google Maps we can show you locations better and thus adapt our service to your needs. By using Google Maps, data is transmitted to Google and stored on the Google servers. Here we want to go into more detail about what Google Maps is, why we use this Google service, what data is stored and how you can prevent this. Google Maps is an Internet map service from Google. With Google Maps, you can find the exact location of a city, attraction, lodging, or business online using a PC, tablet, or app. If companies are represented on Google My Business, additional information about the company is displayed in addition to the location. In order to show how to get there, map sections of a location can be integrated into a website using HTML code. Google Maps shows the earth's surface as a street map or as an aerial or satellite image. Thanks to the Street View images and the high-quality satellite images, very precise representations are possible. All of our efforts on this page are aimed at providing you with a useful and meaningful time on our website. By integrating Google Maps, we can provide you with the most important information about various locations. You can see at a glance where we have our company headquarters. The route description always shows you the best or fastest way to us. You can get directions for routes by car, public transport, on foot or by bike. For us, providing Google Maps is part of our customer service. In order for Google Maps to be able to fully offer its service, the company must collect and store data from you. This includes, among other things, the search terms entered, your IP address and also the latitude and longitude coordinates. If you use the route planner function, the start address entered will also be saved. However, this data storage happens on the Google Maps website. We can only inform you about this, but have no influence. Since we have integrated Google Maps into our website, Google sets at least one cookie (name: NID) in your browser. This cookie stores data about your user behavior. Google uses this data primarily to optimize its own services and to provide you with individual, personalized advertising. The following cookie is set in your browser due to the integration of Google Maps: Name: NID Note: We cannot guarantee the completeness of the stored data. Changes can never be ruled out, especially when using cookies. In order to identify the cookie NID, a separate test page was created, where only Google Maps was integrated. The Google servers are located in data centers around the world. However, most of the servers are located in America. For this reason, your data is also increasingly stored in the USA. Here you can read exactly where the Google data centers are located: https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de Google distributes the data on different data carriers. As a result, the data can be called up more quickly and is better protected against any attempts at manipulation. Each data center also has special emergency programs. For example, if there are problems with the Google hardware or a natural disaster shuts down the servers, the data will almost certainly remain protected. Google stores some data for a fixed period of time. For other data, Google only offers the option of manually deleting it. The company also anonymizes information (such as advertising data) in server logs by deleting part of the IP address and cookie information after 9 and 18 months, respectively. With the automatic deletion of location and activity data introduced in 2019, information on location determination and web/app activity is stored for either 3 or 18 months, depending on your decision, and then deleted. You can also manually delete this data from the history at any time via the Google account. If you want to completely prevent your location tracking, you need to pause the “Web and app activity” section in the Google account. Click "Data and Personalization" and then click the "Activity Settings" option. Here you can toggle activities on or off. You can also deactivate, delete or manage individual cookies in your browser. Depending on which browser you use, this always works a little differently.

So you can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow it or not. Please note that when using this tool, your data may also be stored and processed outside of the EU.Most third countries (including the USA) are not considered secure under current European data protection law. Data to insecure third countries must therefore not simply be transferred, stored and processed there unless there are suitable guarantees (such as EU standard contractual clauses) between us and the non-European Service provider returns. If you have consented to the use of Google Maps, the legal basis for the corresponding data processing is this consent. According to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit
We also have a legitimate interest in using Google Maps to optimize our online service. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use Google Maps if you have given your consent. Google also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can pose various risks to the legality and security of data processing. As the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there, Google uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art. 46. Paragraphs 2 and 3 GDPR). These clauses oblige Google to comply with EU data protection standards when processing relevant data outside of the EU. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the clauses here: https://ec.europa.eu/germany/news/20210604-datentransfers-eu_de. If you want to find out more about data processing by Google, we recommend the company's own data protection declaration at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de. Our primary goal is to secure and protect our website for you and for us in the best possible way. To ensure this, we use Google reCAPTCHA from Google Inc. For Europe, the company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. With reCAPTCHA we can determine if you really are a real human being and not a robot or other spam software. We understand spam to mean any unwanted information that is sent to us electronically, unsolicited. With the classic CAPTCHAS, you usually had to solve text or image puzzles to check them. With reCAPTCHA from Google, we don't have to bother you with such puzzles most of the time. In most cases, it is sufficient if you simply tick the box and confirm that you are not a bot. With the new Invisible reCAPTCHA version, you don't even have to check the box.You can find out exactly how this works and, above all, which data is used for this in the course of this data protection declaration reCAPTCHA is a free captcha service provided by Google that protects websites from spam software and abuse by non-human visitors. Most often, this service is used when filling out forms on the Internet. A captcha service is a type of automatic Turing test designed to ensure that an action on the internet is being performed by a human and not a bot. In the classic Turing test (named after the computer scientist Alan Turing), a human determines the difference between a bot and a human. In the case of captchas, the computer or a software program also takes care of this. Classic captchas work with small tasks that are easy for humans to solve, but present significant difficulties for machines. With reCAPTCHA you no longer have to actively solve puzzles. The tool uses modern risk techniques to distinguish humans from bots. Here you only have to tick the text field "I'm not a robot" or with Invisible reCAPTCHA even that is no longer necessary. With reCAPTCHA, a JavaScript element is integrated into the source text and then the tool runs in the background and analyzes your user behavior. The software calculates a so-called Captcha score from these user actions. Google uses this score to calculate the probability that you are a human before entering the Captcha. reCAPTCHA or Captchas in general are always used when bots could manipulate or misuse certain actions (e.g. registrations, surveys, etc.). We only want to welcome flesh and blood people to our site. Bots or spam software of all kinds can safely stay at home. That's why we're doing everything we can to protect ourselves and offer you the best possible user experience. For this reason we use Google reCAPTCHA from Google. So we can be pretty sure that we remain a "bot-free" website. By using reCAPTCHA, data is transmitted to Google to determine whether you are really a human being. reCAPTCHA therefore serves to ensure the security of our website and subsequently also your security. For example, without reCAPTCHA it could happen that a bot registers as many email addresses as possible during registration in order to then "spam" forums or blogs with unwanted advertising content. With reCAPTCHA we can avoid such bot attacks. reCAPTCHA collects personal data from users to determine whether the actions on our website really come from people. The IP address and other data that Google needs for the reCAPTCHA service can therefore be sent to Google. IP addresses are almost always shortened within the member states of the EU or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before the data ends up on a server in the USA. The IP address is not combined with other data from Google unless you are logged in with your Google account while using reCAPTCHA. First, the reCAPTCHA algorithm checks whether Google cookies from other Google services (YouTube, Gmail, etc.) are already placed on your browser. Then reCAPTCHA sets an additional cookie in your browser and captures a snapshot of your browser window. The following list of collected browser and user data does not claim to be complete. Rather, they are examples of data that, to our knowledge, are processed by Google. It is undisputed that Google uses and analyzes this data even before you click on the "I'm not a robot" checkbox. With the Invisible reCAPTCHA version, you don't even have to check the box and the whole recognition process runs in the background. Google does not tell you exactly how much and what data Google stores. The following cookies are used by reCAPTCHA: Here we refer to the reCAPTCHA demo version from Google at https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/demo. All of these cookies require a unique identifier for tracking purposes. Here is a list of cookies set by Google reCAPTCHA on the demo version: Name: IDE Name: 1P_JAR Name: ANID Name: CONSENT Name: NID Name: DV Note: This list cannot claim to be complete, as experience has shown that Google changes the choice of its cookies again and again. By inserting reCAPTCHA, your data will be transferred to the Google server. Where exactly this data is stored is not made clear by Google, even after repeated inquiries. Without having received confirmation from Google, it can be assumed that data such as mouse interaction, time spent on the website or language settings on the European or American Google servers are stored. The IP address that your browser transmits to Google is generally not merged with other Google data from other Google services. However, if you are logged into your Google account while using the reCAPTCHA plug-in, the data will be merged. The different data protection regulations of Google apply. If you do not want any data about you and your behavior to be transmitted to Google, you must log out of Google completely and delete all Google cookies before you visit our website or use the reCAPTCHA software. In principle, the data is automatically transmitted to Google as soon as you access our site. To delete this data again, you must contact Google Support at https://support.google.com/?hl=de&tid=311829375. So if you use our website, you agree that Google LLC and its agents automatically collect, process and use data. Please note that when using this tool, your data may also be stored and processed outside of the EU. Most third countries (including the USA) are not considered secure under current European data protection law. Data may not simply be transferred to unsafe third countries, stored there and processed unless there are suitable guarantees (such as EU standard contractual clauses) between us and the non-European service provider. If you have consented to Google reCAPTCHA being used, the legal basis for the corresponding data processing is this consent. According to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit
We also have a legitimate interest in using Google reCAPTCHA to optimize our online service and make it more secure. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use Google reCAPTCHA if you have given your consent. Google also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can entail various risks for the legality and security of data processing. As the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there, Google uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (= Art 46. Para 2 and 3 GDPR). These clauses oblige Google to comply with EU data protection standards when processing relevant data outside of the EU. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the clauses here: https://ec.europa.eu/germany/news/20210604-datentransfers-eu_de. You can learn a little more about reCAPTCHA on Google's web developer page at https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/. Google goes into the technical development of the reCAPTCHA in more detail here, but you won't find precise information about data storage and data protection-related topics there either. A good overview of the basic use of data at Google can be found in the in-house data protection declaration at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/. We have integrated the Google custom search plugin on our website. Google is the largest and best-known search engine in the world and is operated by the US company Google Inc. The company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for the European area. The user-defined Google search can transfer data from you to Google. In this data protection declaration we inform you why we use this plug-in, which data is processed and how you can manage or prevent this data transfer. The Google Custom Search plugin is a Google search bar right on our website. The search takes place as on www.google.com, but the search results focus on our content and products or on a limited search area. A website with a lot of interesting content is often so big that you can lose track of it. We have also accumulated a lot of valuable material over time and as part of our service we want you to find our content as quickly and easily as possible. Custom Google Search makes finding interesting content a breeze. The built-in Google plug-in improves the overall quality of our website and makes it easier for you to search. The custom Google search only transfers data from you to Google if you actively use the Google search built into our website. This means that only when you enter a search term in the search bar and then confirm this term (e.g. click on "Enter") will your IP address and the search term be sent to Google, saved and processed there.Based on the cookies set (such as 1P_JAR) it can be assumed that Google also receives data on website usage. If you search for content during your visit to our website using the built-in Google search function and are logged in to your Google account at the same time, Google can also assign the data collected to your Google account. As the website operator, we have no influence on what Google does with the data collected or how Google processes the data. The following cookies are set in your browser when you use Google Custom Search and are not logged in with a Google account: Name: 1P_JAR Name: CONSENT Name: NID Note: This list cannot claim to be complete, as Google is constantly changing the choice of its cookies. The Google servers are distributed all over the world. Since Google is an American company, most of the data is stored on American servers. Under https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de you can see exactly where the Google servers are located. Under European Union data protection law, you have the right to access, update, delete or restrict your data. There is some data that you can delete at any time. If you have a Google account, you can delete data about your web activity there or specify that it should be deleted after a certain period of time. Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome Safari: Managing cookies and site data with Safari Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer Internet Explorer: Deleting and managing cookies Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies If you have consented to the use of the user-defined Google search, the legal basis for the corresponding data processing is this consent. According to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent), this consent is the legal basis for the processing of personal data, as it may occur when collected by the custom Google search. Our side also has a legitimate interest in using the custom Google search to optimize our online service. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use the custom Google search if you have given your consent. Google also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can pose various risks to the legality and security of data processing.
