Privacy Policy

 

The protection of your personal data is of particular concern to us. We therefore process your data exclusively on the basis of legal regulations (DSG 2018, GDPR, TKG 2003). In this privacy policy, we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing within our website.

Please read this statement carefully, as it explains how we collect, process, and store your personal data. Every access to our website and every retrieval of a file stored on it is logged. The storage serves internal system-related and statistical purposes. Logged data includes: the name of the retrieved file, date, time of access, data volume transferred, notification of successful retrieval, web browser, requesting domain, IP address of the requesting computer, search terms, (...)*.

We process and store all personal data that you provide to us via email inquiries (e.g., name, address, email address, telephone number, etc.) for the purpose of responding to your inquiries and maintaining customer relationships. This data will be stored with us until you submit a written request for deletion.

Further personal data will only be collected if you voluntarily provide it as part of an inquiry, registration, contract conclusion, or browser settings. If we share data with external service providers, appropriate technical and organizational measures will be taken to ensure that the transfer complies with data protection regulations.


1. CONTACTING US

1.1. When contacting us via email, the user's data will be stored for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case follow-up questions arise.

1.2. We do not share this data without your consent unless it is necessary to fulfill a contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures. Without this data, we cannot conclude a contract with you. This particularly applies to applications submitted via email.


2. ACCESS DATA / SERVER LOG FILES

2.1. The provider (or its web space provider) collects data on website access (so-called server log files). Access data includes: the name of the accessed website, file, date and time of access, transferred data volume, notification of successful retrieval, browser type and version, user's operating system, referrer URL (previously visited website), IP address, and requesting provider.

2.2. The provider uses the log data only for statistical analysis for the purpose of operation, security, and optimization of the website. However, the provider reserves the right to review log data later if there are concrete indications of unlawful use.


3. HANDLING OF PERSONAL DATA

3.1. We automatically collect and store information in your server log files that your browser transmits to us. These include:

  • Browser type/version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL (previously visited page)
  • Hostname of the accessing computer (IP address)
  • Time of server request

This data cannot be assigned to specific individuals by the provider. A combination of this data with other data sources does not take place, and the data is used solely for statistical evaluations.

3.2. Personal data will only be collected, used, and shared by the provider if this is legally permitted or if users consent to data collection.

3.3. We will retain your personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this privacy policy unless a longer retention period is required by law (e.g., tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

3.4. If we no longer have a legitimate business need to process your personal data, we will either delete or anonymize it. If deletion is not possible (e.g., because your personal data is stored in backup archives), we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

 

4. COOKIES

Our website uses only technically necessary cookies to ensure website functionality and security. These cookies do not store personal data and are essential for the operation of the website. They are automatically deleted once you close your browser. We do not use third-party cookies or cookies for analytical purposes.

You have the fundamental rights to access, rectification, deletion, restriction, data portability, withdrawal, and objection regarding your data.
