Access Data (Server Log Files)

When you access our website, we automatically collect and store access data in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These include:

• Browser type and browser version of your computer

• Referrer URL (source from which you accessed our website)

• Date and time of the server request

• The IP address currently used by your computer (possibly in anonymized form)

As a rule, we are not able to assign this data to a specific person and we do not intend to do so. The processing of such data is carried out in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR based on our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.

​

Cookies

​

To make your visit to our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your computer system.

Cookies that are necessary for carrying out electronic communication processes or for providing certain functions requested by you are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of our services.

If other cookies are stored (e.g. cookies for analyzing your browsing behavior), these are addressed separately in this privacy policy.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after your visit ends. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

You can configure your browser so that:

• you are informed about the setting of cookies

• cookies are only allowed in individual cases

• cookies are excluded for specific cases or in general

• cookies are automatically deleted when closing the browser

Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

§1 Web Analytics Tools and Advertising

​

1.1 Google Analytics

Our website uses the web analytics service Google Analytics 4, provided by:

Google Ireland Ltd.
Gordon House, Barrow Street
Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).

Google Analytics uses so-called cookies, which are text files stored on your computer that allow analysis of how you use our website.

Within Google Analytics, all data from devices located in the EU (based on the geographic location determined by the IP address) is collected via domains and servers in the EU before the traffic is forwarded to Analytics servers for processing.

The legal basis for processing your data is your consent provided via the cookie consent tool in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

​

1.2 IP Anonymization

The IP anonymization function is automatically activated on this website. As a result, your IP address is shortened by Google within EU member states or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission to the United States.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of our website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website usage and internet usage.

According to Google, IP addresses are not logged or stored in Google Analytics, but only processed briefly for geolocation and then immediately deleted.

The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

​

2. Data Processing Agreement

We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google and fully comply with the strict requirements of German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

​

3. Storage Period

Data stored by Google on the user and event level that is linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g. User ID), or advertising IDs (e.g. DoubleClick cookies or Android advertising ID) is deleted after 14 months.

Further information can be found here:
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7667196

​

4. Right of Withdrawal

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. If the processing of your data is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time in accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR with effect for the future by adjusting your cookie settings.

The withdrawal of consent does not affect the legality of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

Data stored for accounting or bookkeeping purposes remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

​

1.2 Google Tag Manager

Our website uses Google Tag Manager, provided by Google Ireland Ltd.

Google Tag Manager is a tool that allows marketers to manage website tags via an interface. The tool itself does not store personal data and operates through a cookie-free domain.

It triggers other tags that may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If deactivation has been implemented at the domain or cookie level, it remains valid for all tracking tags implemented via Google Tag Manager.

​

1.3 Google AdSense

Our website uses Google AdSense, a service for integrating advertisements provided by Google.

Google AdSense uses cookies, which are text files stored on your computer that allow advertisements to be displayed on our website that match our content and your interests.

​

Google AdSense also uses web beacons (invisible graphics). These web beacons allow information about visitor traffic on our pages to be statistically evaluated for online marketing purposes.

The information generated by cookies and web beacons regarding your use of this website (including your IP address) and the delivery of advertising formats is transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA.

Google may transfer this information to third parties. However, Google will not combine your IP address with other data stored by Google.

If you have given your consent, the storage and processing of personal data takes place on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

We also have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both our website and advertising.

The aggregation of the collected data in your Google account takes place exclusively based on your consent, which you can give or withdraw directly with Google.

​

You can prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting your browser settings. However, please note that you may not be able to use all functions of this website in full in that case.

​

1.4 Google Fonts

We use Google Fonts (formerly Google Web Fonts), a service provided by Google.

Google Fonts allows us to use external fonts. When you access our website, the required Google Font is loaded into your browser cache.

This is necessary so that your browser can display our texts in an improved visual presentation.

If your browser does not support this function, a standard font from your computer will be used.

The integration of Google Fonts is carried out via a server request, usually to a Google server in the USA. This informs the server which of our pages you have visited. Google also stores the IP address of your device’s browser.

We have no influence over the extent and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of Google Fonts.

We use Google Fonts for optimization purposes, particularly to improve the usability of our website and make it more user-friendly. This constitutes our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Contact Form

​

If you contact us by email or via a contact form, the transmitted data including your contact details will be stored in order to process your request or for follow-up questions. This data will not be shared without your consent.

The processing of the data entered into the contact form takes place exclusively based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

You may withdraw your consent at any time. An informal email notification is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.

​

Data submitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, withdraw your consent, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory legal provisions, especially retention periods, remain unaffected.

Use and Disclosure of Data

​

Personal data that you provide to us, for example via email (such as your name, address or email address), will not be sold or otherwise marketed to third parties.

Your personal data will only be used for correspondence with you and only for the purpose for which you provided it.

To process payments, we pass your payment data to the financial institution responsible for the payment.

Data collected automatically during your visit to our website is used only for the purposes stated above.

We assure you that we will not pass on your personal data to third parties unless we are legally obliged to do so or you have given your prior consent.

​

SSL / TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you send to us as the website operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption.

You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser address line changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.

​

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

​

Hosting

Our website is hosted by Wix.com.

To optimize and maintain our website, we log technical errors that may occur when accessing our website.

When using this website, information is automatically collected that your browser transmits to our hosting provider, including:

• IP address and operating system of your device

• date and time of the server request
