Delivery of website – Log files

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the visitor. This consists of standard usage data such as time of access, IP address from which the access originated, type and version of web browser, as well as certain cookies and other internet-related technical features. The data is also stored in the log files of our system. Any such data is never stored together with other personal data associated with the user. The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to allow delivery of the website to the computer of the user. To do this, the user’s IP address must be retained for the duration of the session. Storage of this information in log files takes place to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data is used to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our own IT systems. No evaluation of the data for marketing purposes takes place in this context. The above purposes serve our legitimate interest in data processing as defined in Article 6 para 1(f) and Article 28 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose of its collection. In the case of data collected for the purpose of delivering the website, this will be deleted when the current session is ended. Where data is stored in log files, it will be deleted after fourteen days at the latest. Storage for longer periods may be necessary in exceptional cases. In such an eventuality, the IP addresses of the user will be either deleted or anonymised in such a way that they cannot be linked to the identity of the client who accessed the website. The collection of data for the delivery of the website and the storage of such data in log files is essential for the operation of the website. The user therefore has no opt-out rights in this connection. Hosting of this website and its log files on our behalf is provided exclusively by servers in certified data centres within Europe.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files consisting of a series of numerical and alphabetic characters that are installed and stored on the device you are using. Cookies neither transmit viruses nor can they launch applications. Their primary purpose is to exchange information between the device you use and our website in order to make our internet offering more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require that the user’s browser also be identified after a change of web page. These cookies may typically contain information about language settings or login information. Here, a distinction must be made between transient (i.e. temporary) cookies and persistent cookies. Transient cookies include, in particular, the session cookies. These store a so-called ‘session ID’, by means of which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the common session. This enables our website to recognise your computer when you next return to our website. The session cookies are deleted when you log out or close your browser. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may differ depending on the cookie. You have the option to delete these cookies at any time by adjusting the security settings of your browser.

The above purposes serve our legitimate interest in data processing as defined in Article 6 para 1(f) of the GDPR. Because cookies are stored on your computer, you as the user also have full control over them. You can adjust the security settings of your browser to specify whether cookies are even installed at all. For example, you have the option right from the outset of refusing to accept any cookies or accepting them only on demand or specifying that cookies must be deleted each time you close your browser. If cookies are disabled for our website, it may not be possible to benefit from the full functionality of the website.

Storage duration – Deletion

We delete or block your personal data as soon as the purpose of the storage has been achieved or no longer applies. Any further storage will only take place if this is required of us by national or European regulations. Blocking or deletion of the data will then take place as soon as the storage period prescribed in the respective regulations expires, unless we need your data for the fulfilment of a contract concluded between us or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Contact via contact form, e-mail, social media or telephone

If you use a contact form on our website or get in touch with us by e-mail, telephone or social media and provide us with personal data by this means, this data may be stored and processed by us for the purpose of fulfilling your request. This data will be processed only for the purpose of communicating with you. We will not transfer or forward your data to any third parties. We need to know your name so that we can address you correctly in our communications with you. We need your e-mail address in order to respond to your enquiry. We need your phone number to call you back if requested to do so. The legal basis for the above-mentioned use of the data is Article 6 para 1(a) of the GDPR. Any personal data collected by us will be deleted, under the proviso that it is no longer required. We perform regular checks to see whether it is still required. You can also opt out of data processing at any time. You can also prevent the storage and processing of your personal data by refraining from use of the contact form.

Your rights as a user of our online presence as defined by the GDPR

According to the GDPR, you have the following rights, which you can assert at any time by contacting the person named at the start of this privacy policy document:

  • Right to information: Article 15 of the GDPR entitles you to require confirmation from us as to whether we are processing your personal data and the nature of that data. In addition, you may require us to provide you, free of charge, with information about the purposes of the processing, the categories of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or is being disclosed, the planned storage period, your rights to correction, deletion, restriction or opt-out of processing, the existence of a right of appeal and the origin of your data if it was not initially collected by us. You also have the right to know whether your personal data has been transferred or forwarded to another country or to an international organisation. If so, you have the right to obtain information about the relevant guarantees applying to any such forwarding or transfer.
  • Right to correction: Article 16 of the GDPR entitles you to request that inaccurate or incomplete data stored by us and referring to you be corrected or completed.
  • Right to deletion: Article 17 of the GDPR entitles you to demand the deletion of your personal data stored with us, to the extent that we do not need to process it for the following purposes:
    • to fulfil a legal obligation;
    • to assert, exercise or defend legal claims;
    • to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information; or
    • for reasons of public interest as defined in Article 17 paras 3(c) and 3(d) of the GDPR.
  • Right to restriction: Article 18 of the GDPR entitles you to demand that the processing of your personal data be restricted if
    • the accuracy of the data is disputed by you (you must, however, allow us sufficient time to verify the accuracy of your personal data);
    • the processing of your data is unlawful, but you decline to have it deleted, opting instead for restriction on its use;
    • we no longer need your personal information for processing purposes, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend your rights;
    • you exercise your right under Article 21 of the GDPR to object to the processing of your data, but it has not yet been established whether your rights are outweighed by the legitimate reasons that justified us in further processing your data despite your opposition.
  • Right to information: If you have asserted your right to correction, deletion or restricted processing and you have communicated this to us, we are obliged to notify all recipients to whom your personal data has been disclosed that you have demanded the correction, deletion or restricted processing of your data, unless this proves to be impossible or involves disproportionate effort or expense. You have the right to be informed by us about these recipients.
  • Right to data transferability: Article 20 of the GDPR entitles you request that we make available to you the personal information that you have shared with us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, or to request that we send it to another person nominated by you.
  • Right of appeal: Article 77 of the GDPR entitles you to complain to a supervisory authority. You may submit your complaint to the relevant supervisory body for your habitual place of residence or place of work or directly to our registered domicile.

Withdrawal of consent

Article 7 para 3 of the GDPR entitles you to withdraw your consent to the processing of your data at any time. Any such revocation will not affect the legality of the processing of your personal data up to that point in time.

Right to object

For reasons that arise from your particular situation, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data. At the same time, a balance of interests must be taken into account in accordance with Article 6 para 1(f) of the GDPR. This right especially applies if data processing is not required for the fulfilment of a contract. If you exercise your right to object, we will ask you to explain the reasons. We will then cease to process your personal data, unless we can demonstrate to you that there are compelling legitimate reasons for processing data which outweigh your interests and rights.

Irrespective of the above, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes at any time. You should address your objection to the person responsible who is named at the beginning of this document.

Google Web Fonts

On our web site, we use Google Web Fonts, a service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

The service enables us to incorporate the display of external fonts (web fonts) into the design of our website and to reproduce them correctly in the presentation of this website. This gives us a choice between certain creative options that allow us to make the design of our website more user-friendly. The embedding of these web fonts is performed by calling up a server. From this server, the fonts are delivered in compressed format to your browser and unpacked there. This server is most likely to be located in the USA. If you visit one of our sites where we embed Google Fonts, Google will be informed which of our web pages you have visited. In addition, the IP address of the browser on the device used by the visitor is stored by Google.
