The fol­lowing pri­va­cy poli­cy is inten­ded to inform you in par­ti­cu­lar about the type, scope, pur­po­se, dura­ti­on, and legal basis for the pro­ces­sing of such data eit­her under our own con­trol or in con­junc­tion with others. We also inform you below about the third-par­ty com­pon­ents we use to opti­mi­ze our web­site and impro­ve the user expe­ri­ence which may result in said third par­ties also pro­ces­sing data they collect and control.

II. The rights of users and data subjects

With regard to the data pro­ces­sing to be descri­bed in more detail below, users and data sub­jects have the right

  • to con­fir­ma­ti­on of whe­ther data con­cer­ning them is being pro­ces­sed, infor­ma­ti­on about the data being pro­ces­sed, fur­ther infor­ma­ti­on about the natu­re of the data pro­ces­sing, and copies of the data (cf. also Art. 15 GDPR);
  • to cor­rect or com­ple­te incor­rect or incom­ple­te data (cf. also Art. 16 GDPR);
  • to the immedia­te dele­ti­on of data con­cer­ning them (cf. also Art. 17 DSGVO), or, alter­na­tively, if fur­ther pro­ces­sing is necessa­ry as sti­pu­la­ted in Art. 17 Para. 3 GDPR, to restrict said pro­ces­sing per Art. 18 GDPR;
  • to recei­ve copies of the data con­cer­ning them and/or pro­vi­ded by them and to have the same trans­mit­ted to other providers/controllers (cf. also Art. 20 GDPR);
  • to file com­p­laints with the super­vi­so­ry aut­ho­ri­ty if they belie­ve that data con­cer­ning them is being pro­ces­sed by the con­trol­ler in bre­ach of data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­si­ons (see also Art. 77 GDPR).

In addi­ti­on, the con­trol­ler is obli­ged to inform all reci­pi­ents to whom it dis­c­lo­ses data of any such cor­rec­tions, dele­ti­ons, or restric­tions pla­ced on pro­ces­sing the same per Art. 16, 17 Para. 1, 18 GDPR. Howe­ver, this obli­ga­ti­on does not app­ly if such noti­fi­ca­ti­on is impos­si­ble or invol­ves a dis­pro­por­tio­na­te effort. Nevertheless, users have a right to infor­ma­ti­on about the­se recipients.

Like­wi­se, under Art. 21 GDPR, users and data sub­jects have the right to object to the controller’s future pro­ces­sing of their data pur­suant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. In par­ti­cu­lar, an objec­tion to data pro­ces­sing for the pur­po­se of direct adver­ti­sing is permissible.

III. Information about the data processing

Your data pro­ces­sed when using our web­site will be dele­ted or blo­cked as soon as the pur­po­se for its sto­rage cea­ses to app­ly, pro­vi­ded the dele­ti­on of the same is not in bre­ach of any sta­tu­to­ry sto­rage obli­ga­ti­ons or unless other­wi­se sti­pu­la­ted below.

Server data

For tech­ni­cal rea­sons, the fol­lowing data sent by your inter­net brow­ser to us or to our ser­ver pro­vi­der will be collec­ted, espe­cial­ly to ensu­re a secu­re and sta­ble web­site: The­se ser­ver log files record the type and ver­si­on of your brow­ser, ope­ra­ting sys­tem, the web­site from which you came (refer­rer URL), the web­pages on our site visi­ted, the date and time of your visit, as well as the IP address from which you visi­ted our site.

The data thus collec­ted will be tem­pora­ri­ly stored, but not in asso­cia­ti­on with any other of your data.

The basis for this sto­rage is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest lies in the impro­ve­ment, sta­bi­li­ty, func­tio­n­a­li­ty, and secu­ri­ty of our website.

The data will be dele­ted wit­hin no more than seven days, unless con­ti­nued sto­rage is requi­red for evi­den­tia­ry pur­po­ses. In which case, all or part of the data will be exclu­ded from dele­ti­on until the inves­ti­ga­ti­on of the rele­vant inci­dent is final­ly resolved.

Cookies

a) Session cookies

We use coo­kies on our web­site. Coo­kies are small text files or other sto­rage tech­no­lo­gies stored on your com­pu­ter by your brow­ser. The­se coo­kies pro­cess cer­tain spe­ci­fic infor­ma­ti­on about you, such as your brow­ser, loca­ti­on data, or IP address.

This pro­ces­sing makes our web­site more user-friend­ly, effi­ci­ent, and secu­re, allowing us, for examp­le, to dis­play our web­site in dif­fe­rent lan­guages or to offer a shop­ping cart function.

The legal basis for such pro­ces­sing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, inso­far as the­se coo­kies are used to collect data to initia­te or pro­cess con­trac­tu­al relationships.

If the pro­ces­sing does not ser­ve to initia­te or pro­cess a con­tract, our legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest lies in impro­ving the func­tio­n­a­li­ty of our web­site. The legal basis is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

When you clo­se your brow­ser, the­se ses­si­on coo­kies are deleted.

b) Third-party cookies

If necessa­ry, our web­site may also use coo­kies from com­pa­nies with whom we coope­ra­te for the pur­po­se of adver­ti­sing, ana­ly­zing, or impro­ving the fea­tures of our website.

Plea­se refer to the fol­lowing infor­ma­ti­on for details, in par­ti­cu­lar for the legal basis and pur­po­se of such third-par­ty collec­tion and pro­ces­sing of data collec­ted through cookies.

c) Disabling cookies

You can refu­se the use of coo­kies by chan­ging the set­tings on your brow­ser. Like­wi­se, you can use the brow­ser to dele­te coo­kies that have alrea­dy been stored. Howe­ver, the steps and mea­su­res requi­red vary, depen­ding on the brow­ser you use. If you have any ques­ti­ons, plea­se use the help func­tion or con­sult the docu­men­ta­ti­on for your brow­ser or con­ta­ct its maker for sup­port. Brow­ser set­tings can­not pre­vent so-cal­led flash coo­kies from being set. Ins­tead, you will need to chan­ge the set­ting of your Flash play­er. The steps and mea­su­res requi­red for this also depend on the Flash play­er you are using. If you have any ques­ti­ons, plea­se use the help func­tion or con­sult the docu­men­ta­ti­on for your Flash play­er or con­ta­ct its maker for support.

If you pre­vent or restrict the instal­la­ti­on of coo­kies, not all of the func­tions on our site may be ful­ly usable.

If you con­ta­ct us via email or the con­ta­ct form, the data you pro­vi­de will be used for the pur­po­se of pro­ces­sing your request. We must have this data in order to pro­cess and ans­wer your inqui­ry; other­wi­se we will not be able to ans­wer it in full or at all.

The legal basis for this data pro­ces­sing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.

Your data will be dele­ted once we have ful­ly ans­we­red your inqui­ry and the­re is no fur­ther legal obli­ga­ti­on to store your data, such as if an order or con­tract resul­ted therefrom.

Google Fonts

Our web­site uses Goog­le Fonts to dis­play exter­nal fonts. This is a ser­vice pro­vi­ded by Goog­le Ire­land Limi­ted, Gor­don House, Bar­row Street, Dub­lin 4, Irland (her­ein­af­ter: Google).

To enab­le the dis­play of cer­tain fonts on our web­site, a con­nec­tion to the Goog­le ser­ver in the USA is estab­lis­hed whenever our web­site is accessed.

The legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest lies in the opti­miz­a­ti­on and eco­no­mic ope­ra­ti­on of our site.

When you access our site, a con­nec­tion to Goog­le is estab­lis­hed from which Goog­le can iden­ti­fy the site from which your request has been sent and to which IP address the fonts are being trans­mit­ted for display.

jQuery CDN

We use the ser­vice jQue­ry CDN, a Con­tent Deli­very Net­work (“CDN”), on our web­site to opti­mi­se the retrie­val speed, the design and pre­sen­ta­ti­on of the con­tent of our web­site on dif­fe­rent devices.

This is a ser­vice of the jQue­ry Foun­da­ti­on, her­ein­af­ter refer­red to as “jQue­ry”. jQue­ry is dis­tri­bu­t­ed for the JS Foun­da­ti­on via the Stack­Path CDN.

In order to be able to deli­ver the con­tent of our web­site quick­ly, the ser­vice uses so-cal­led Java­Script libra­ries.  Rele­vant files are loa­ded from the CDN ser­ver if they are not alrea­dy avail­ab­le in your brow­ser cache when you visit ano­t­her web­site.  In the case of a con­nec­tion to the CDN ser­ver, your IP address is recor­ded.  It can­not be ruled out that a con­nec­tion will be estab­lis­hed to a ser­ver out­side the EU.

The legal basis is Art.  6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest lies in spee­ding up loading times and pro­tec­ting our web­site, as well as in ana­ly­sing and opti­mi­sing our website.

To total­ly pre­vent the exe­cu­ti­on of jQuery’s Java­Script code, you can install a so-cal­led Java­Script blo­cker, such as noscript.net or ghostery.com. . If you were to pre­vent or restrict the exe­cu­ti­on of the Java Script code, this can mean that for tech­ni­cal rea­sons not all the con­tent and func­tions of our web­site may be available.
