By using our online services, you agree to this Privacy Policy and agree to the processing of personal data in compliance with the applicable data protection legislation and the following provisions. Please bear in mind that data transmission via the Internet may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection against access by third parties is not feasible.
Processing your personal data
Personal data consists of details and information that relate to a particular person or an identifiable individual. This includes, for example, the IP address, which we register when you visit our website.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies. These are small text files which are stored on your end device. Your browser accesses these files. Using cookies enables us to increase the usability and security of our website. Common browsers offer settings options to prevent cookies from being allowed. Note: However, if you change these settings accordingly, we cannot ensure that you will be able to access all the functions on our website without restrictions.
Web analysis
We use the web analysis tool “Google Analytics” to obtain information about the use of our website and to improve our Internet offering. This tool is made available by third-party providers. The information collected for this purpose on the use of a website by using cookies is usually transmitted to third-party servers. Depending on the third-party provider, these servers might be located abroad. The data is usually transmitted by shortening the IP address, which prevents identification of individual end devices. The IP address transmitted by your browser in this connection is not linked with any other data from this third-party provider. This information will only be transmitted by third parties if they are required to do so by law or within the context of order data processing.
You have the option of adjusting the browser settings such that it accepts either all cookies or only the cookies you want, notifies you that a cookie has been installed, and refuses to accept all cookies or third-party provider’s cookies. You can also manually delete the cookies in your browser settings at any time. However, we once again advise you that in this case you might not be able to use all the functions on our website.
Duration of storage of personal data
The duration of storage of personal data is calculated on the basis of the respective legal retention period (such as commercial and tax retention periods). After this period has expired, the respective data is deleted as a matter of routine, provided it is no longer required to perform or initiate the contract and/or no legitimate interest in further storage exists on our side.
