Privacy

As operator of these pages we take protection of your personal data very seriously: we handle them confidentially, according to data protection legislation and to this privacy policy.

It is generally possible to use our website without providing personal data.

Disclosure of Personal Information to Third Parties

As a matter of principle we do not share any identifiable personal information with third parties without your explicit consent. If, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to others (contract processors or third parties), transfer it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this is done on the basis of a legal permission that you have consented to, a legal obligation that provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests.

Form Fields (such as in contact forms) and Making Contact by E-mail

Whenever personal data (such as name, address, or email address) is collected on our website (e.g. via a contact form), it is always done on a voluntary basis wherever possible. Only fields necessary for the use of the service are marked as required fields. Where feasible, we avoid requesting real names.

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the form, including the contact information you provide there, will be stored for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not share your submitted data with third parties without your explicit consent.

Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. communication by email) may have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

You may revoke your consent to the storage of your data and your email address at any time.

The processing of the data entered is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or on the implementation of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR). The data remains with us until the purpose of storage no longer applies or you revoke your consent, provided there are no legal retention obligations.

Cookies

Our website uses only technically necessary cookies. These so-called session cookies enable the use of certain website features (e.g. navigation or form usage). They are automatically deleted once you leave our website or close your browser.

No cookies are set for analysis, marketing, or tracking purposes. Therefore, no cookie banner is required.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and to enable the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Please note that the functionality of this website may be limited if cookies are completely disabled.

Here we and/or our hosting provider process inventory data, contact data, content data, contract data, usage data, meta and communication data of customers, interested parties and visitors of this online offer on the basis of our legitimate interests in an efficient and secure provision of this online offer.

Hosting is provided by Serverprofis GmbH, Otto-Lilienthal-Ring 34-36, D-85622 Feldkirchen (hereinafter referred to as Serverprofis GmbH). When you visit our website, Serverprofis GmbH collects various log files including your IP addresses.

Serverprofis GmbH is used on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in ensuring that our website is displayed as reliably as possible. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract prescribed by data protection law, which guarantees that it processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Server-Log-Files and Logging

The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files that your browser transmits to us automatically. These include browser type/version, operating system used, referrer URL, hostname of the accessing computer, and time of the server request.

This data cannot be assigned to specific individuals. This data will not be combined with other data sources. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use.

IP-Address

To ensure the functioning of this tele media service (stability, reliability) the provider of these pages automatically collects and stores IP addresses that may allow identification. We do not exploit personal data out of this operation. The statistical evaluation of anonymized data records is reserved.

Access, Deletion, Blocking

You have the right at any time to receive free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, as well as the right to correct, block, or delete this data. For this and other questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at the address given in the legal notice at any time.

You also have the right to revoke your consent at any time (Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR), to object to the processing of your data (Art. 21 GDPR), to request the transfer of your data to yourself or to a third party (Art. 20 GDPR), and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR) if you believe that the processing of your personal data is unlawful.

Unless otherwise stated, stored data is routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal regulations as soon as it is no longer required for its intended purpose and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations.

SSL and TLS encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

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

Objection against Unsolicited Advertising

We expressly prohibit third parties from using contact data published as part of our legally required website credits for the transmission of unsolicited advertising and information material. The operator of these pages expressly reserves the right to take legal steps in the event of any such unsolicited advertising, such as Spam e-mail.

Third Parties’ Privacy Guidelines

Shariff – Bookmark & Share

We use the privacy-friendly Shariff solution from the c’t editorial team (Heise Medien) on this website. This allows you to conveniently share content on social networks – without data being automatically transmitted to these services when the page loads.

Unlike traditional social media plugins, data transmission only occurs once you actively click on one of the Shariff buttons. Only then is a connection established with the respective network, and you consent to the transmission of your data to the corresponding provider.

Please note that when sharing, content, IP addresses, or other technical information may be transmitted directly to the respective social network, especially if you are simultaneously logged in there. The further processing of this data is governed by the privacy policies of the respective networks.

Further information on Shariff technology can be found at: https://www.heise.de/shariff/

Analytics Tools and External Services

This website does not use analytics tools (e.g. Google Analytics) and does not integrate external services such as Google Maps, YouTube, or Google Fonts.

Modification of Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to occasionally adapt our data protection provisions to current legal requirements. Please inform yourself regularly about the current status of our data protection regulations.
