2 General Information on Data Processing
Purpose of processing / Legal basis: Performance of a contract
Personal data is collected only if you voluntarily provide it to us or if it is technically necessary. If you submit inquiries to us via the contact form, the information you provide in the form—including the email address you provide—will be stored for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not disclose this data without your consent. Beyond this, no personal data is collected. Any processing of your personal data that goes beyond the scope of the legal grounds for processing will only take place on the basis of your express consent.
Categories of recipients:
- Public agencies, where applicable laws take precedence.
- External service providers or other contractors.
- Other external parties, provided that the data subject has given consent or that a transfer is permissible on the grounds of an overriding interest.
Transfers to Third Countries:
In the course of performing the contract, data processors located outside the European Union may also be used.
Data Retention Period:
The data retention period is determined by statutory retention requirements and is generally 10 years.
Usage Data on the Website
When you visit our websites, you transmit data to our web server via your Internet browser (for technical reasons). The following data is recorded during an active connection for communication between your Internet browser and our web server:
- Date and time of the request
- Name of the requested file
- Page from which the file was requested
- Access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.)
- Web browser and operating system used
- Full IP address of the requesting computer
- Amount of data transferred.
For technical security reasons, particularly to defend against attempted attacks on our web server, we store this data temporarily. We cannot use this data to identify individual users. After no more than 30 days, the data is anonymized by truncating the IP address to the domain level, so that it is no longer possible to establish a connection to an individual user. In anonymized form, the data is also processed for statistical purposes; it is not compared with other data sets or disclosed to third parties, even in part.
3 Specific Information About the Website
a) Use of our own “cookies” required for the display of the website
The use of cookies to the extent necessary for displaying the website (e.g., saving the language selection, shopping cart functions, etc.) is permitted even without the explicit consent of website visitors. Cookies that go beyond this—particularly those intended to track website visitors—require the prior, documented consent of website visitors.
This website uses its own “cookies” to store settings necessary for displaying the website (“cookies” are data records sent by the web server to the user’s browser and stored there for later retrieval). No personal data is stored in our own “cookies.” You can generally prevent the use of “cookies” by disabling the storage of “cookies” in your browser.
