GDPR, in particular in the case of range measurement, creation of profiles for advertising and marketing purposes as well as collection of access data and use of third-party services.

We hereby ensure compliance with the provisions of data protection laws and protect this data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or against access by unauthorized persons.  

3.1. The security measures include in particular the encrypted transmission of data between your browser and our server. You can recognize such encrypted connections by the fact that the URL in the address bar of your browser begins with "https://". This is a communication protocol with which data can be transmitted in a tap-proof manner as part of a transport encryption.

4. Disclosure of data to third parties

4.1. Data is only passed on to third parties within the framework of legal requirements. We only pass on user data to third parties if this is necessary, for example, on the basis of art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR for contractual purposes or on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. GDPR in the economic and effective operation of our business

4.2. We only use subcontractors to provide our services if we have taken suitable legal precautions and appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure the protection of the personal data processed in accordance with the relevant statutory provisions.

4.4. If we use a third-party provider whose registered office is located in a third country (outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area), it must be assumed that data is transferred to the countries where the third-party provider is based. The transfer of data to third countries only takes place if there is an adequate level of data protection, user consent or otherwise legal permission.

5. Use of Usercentrics

5.1. We use the services of Usercentrics GmbH, Sendlinger Straße 7, 80331 Munich, Germany (hereinafter "Usercentrics") to obtain and manage consent in relation to cookies and other technologies used on our website. Usercentrics supports us in maintaining your data protection and complying with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

5.2. When you visit our website, Usercentrics may collect information about your consents or revocations of consents regarding the use of cookies and similar technologies. This information may include, for example, your IP address, information about the browser you are using, and the date and time of your visit. Usercentrics processes this data on our behalf to document your consent preferences and to comply with legal obligations to provide evidence.

5.3. The data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR for the fulfillment of the legal obligation incumbent upon us. As the Controller, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent.

5.5. For more information about Usercentrics' use of data, please see the Usercentrics Privacy Policy at https://usercentrics.com/privacy-policy/.

6. Provision of contractual services

We process inventory data (e.g., names and addresses as well as contact data of users), contract data (e.g., services used, names of contact persons, payment information) for the purpose of fulfilling our contractual obligations and services pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit b. GDPR. We inform the contractual partners which data is required for the aforementioned purposes before or in the course of data collection, e.g., in online forms, by means of special marking (e.g., colors) or symbols (e.g., asterisks or similar), or in person. Within the scope of applicable law, we only disclose this data to third parties to the extent that this is necessary for the aforementioned purposes or to fulfill legal obligations or with your consent (e.g., to participating telecommunications, transport and other auxiliary services as well as subcontractors, banks, tax and legal advisors, payment service providers or tax authorities).

6.2. We delete the data after the expiry of legal warranty and comparable obligations, i.e., in principle after the expiry of 4 years, unless the data is stored in a customer account, e.g., as long as it must be retained for legal archiving reasons (e.g., for tax purposes usually 10 years). We delete data disclosed to us by the contractual partner within the scope of a contractual relationship in accordance with the requirements of the contract, generally after the contractual services have been performed.

7. Getting in touch

7.1. When contacting us (via contact form or e-mail), the user's details are processed for the purpose of handling the contact request and its processing pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR. Here, we only process the data that we need to process your request.

7.2. User information may be stored in our Customer Relationship Management System ("CRM System") or comparable inquiry organization.

8. Web hosting

8.1. In order to provide our online offer securely and efficiently, we use the services of Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co.KG as a web hosting provider, from whose servers (or servers managed by them) the online offer can be accessed. For these purposes, we may use infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services as well as security services and technical maintenance services.

8.2. We collect on the basis of our legitimate interests within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR data about each access to the server on which this service is located (so-called server log files). The access data includes the name of the website accessed, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address and the requesting provider.

8.3. Log file information is stored for security reasons (e.g., for the clarification of abuse or fraud) for a maximum of seven days and then deleted. Data whose further storage is necessary for evidentiary purposes is excluded from deletion until the final clarification of the respective incident.

8.4. The web hosting services also include sending, receiving as well as storing e-mails. For these purposes, the addresses of the recipients and senders, but also further information about the e-mail dispatch (e.g. the providers involved), including contents of the respective e-mails are processed. Even though our e-mail communications have transport route encryption, they are not encrypted on the servers from which they are sent and received. The content of e-mail communications is therefore fundamentally susceptible to manipulation.

9. Cookies & Reach Measurement

9.1. When you visit our website, information may be stored on your computer in the form of a cookie. Cookies are pieces of information that are transmitted from our web server or third-party web servers to users' web browsers, where they are stored for later retrieval. Most browsers are set to accept cookies automatically. We would like to point out that the use of our online offer without cookies is only possible to a limited extent. In particular, the use of your customer account is generally not possible, as the use of cookies is technically mandatory for this. However, you can also use your browser to prevent only the setting of certain cookies (e.g., cookies from third-party providers), for example if you want to prevent web tracking. You can find more information on this in the help function of your browser. For more information on third-party cookies that are set or processed when you visit our website, please refer to the privacy policy below, insofar as we make use of them. The term cookies also include other technologies that perform the same functions as cookies (e.g., when user information is stored using pseudonymous online identifiers, also referred to as "user IDs").

  • A distinction must be made between cookies that are set by the website operator when you visit a website (also known as "first-party cookies") and cookies that are set by third-party providers (also known as "third-party cookies"). We only have technical control over the first-mentioned cookies. We further differiate between the following cookies.
  • Temporary cookies (also: session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left an online offer and closed his browser.
  • Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after the browser is closed. For example, the login status can be saved or preferred content can be displayed directly when the user visits a website again. Likewise, the interests of users used for reach measurement or marketing purposes can be stored in such a cookie.
  • Necessary (also: essential or absolutely necessary) cookies: Cookies may be absolutely necessary for the operation of a website (e.g., to store logins or other user inputs or for security reasons).
  • Statistical, marketing and personalization cookies: Cookies are also generally used in the context of range measurement and when a user's interests or behavior (e.g., viewing certain content, using functions, etc.) on individual websites are stored in a user profile. Such profiles are used, for example, to show users content that matches their potential interests. This process is also referred to as "tracking", i.e., tracking the potential interests of users. We will inform you separately about the use of "tracking" technologies in our data protection declaration or in the context of obtaining consent.

9.2. If users do not want cookies to be stored on their computer, they are asked to disable the corresponding option in the system settings of their browser. Stored cookies can be deleted in the system settings of the browser.

9.3. The legal basis on which we process your personal data using cookies depends on whether we ask you for consent. If this is the case and you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis for the processing of your data is the declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed with the help of cookies is processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g., in a business operation of our online offer and its improvement) or, if the use of cookies is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations.

Depending on whether the processing is based on consent or legal permission, you have the option at any time to revoke any consent given or to object to the processing of your data by cookie technologies ("opt-out"). You can initially declare your opt-out by means of your browser settings by objecting to the setting of cookies in the system settings of your browser. An objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can also be declared by means of a variety of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the web pages https://optout.aboutads.info and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/. In addition, you can obtain further instructions on how to object in the context of the information on the service providers and cookies used.

Before we process or have data processed in the context of the use of cookies, we ask users for consent that can be revoked at any time. Before the consent has not been expressed, cookies are used at most, which are necessary for the operation of our online offer. Their use is based on our interest and the interest of users in the expected functionality of our online offer. This includes usage data (e.g., web pages visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses). Users of our online offer are affected by this processing. The processing is carried out on the legal basis of consent (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR) or legitimate interests iSd. Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f. GDPR.

10. Reach analysis with Matomo

10.1. Based on your consent, we use Matomo, an open-source software for statistical evaluation of user access, for the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer. The service is hosted by ourselves.

10.2. The IP address of the users is shortened before it is stored. Matomo uses temporary 1st-party cookies, which are stored on the user's computer and which enable an analysis of the use of this online offer by the user. The cookies are deleted after the end of their use of our online offer. Thereby, pseudonymous usage profiles of the users can be created from the processed data.

10.3. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this online offer is stored on our server and not passed on to third parties. Specifically, this is the following data: Anonymized IP addresses by removing the last 2 bytes, Pseudo anonymized location (based on the anonymized IP address), Date and time, Title of the page accessed, URL of the page accessed, URL of the previous page (if it allows this), Screen resolution, Local time, Files clicked and downloaded, External links, Duration of page load, Country, Region, City (with low accuracy due to IP address), Main language of the browser, User agent of the browser and Interactions with forms (but not their content).

10.4. For more information on Matomo's terms of use and data protection regulations, please visit: https://matomo.org/privacy/

11. Newsletter 

11.1. With the following information, we inform you about the contents of our newsletter as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedure and your rights of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to receive it and to the described procedures.

11.2. Content of the newsletter: We send newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications with promotional information (hereinafter "newsletter") only with the consent of the recipients or a legal permission. Insofar as the contents of the Newsletter are specifically described in the context of a registration, they are decisive for the consent of the users. In addition, our newsletters contain information about our products, offers, promotions and our company.

11.3. The registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in process. This means that after registration you will receive an e-mail in which you are asked to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with other email addresses. The registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the registration and confirmation time as well as the IP address. Likewise, the changes to your data stored with the shipping service provider are logged.

11.4. To register for the newsletter, it is sufficient to enter your e-mail address. Optionally, we ask you to provide a name for the purpose of personal address when registering for the newsletter.

11.5. The newsletters contain a so-called "web beacon", i.e., a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the server of the dispatch service provider when the newsletter is opened. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and the time of the retrieval are initially collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times. The statistical surveys also include the determination of whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our intention nor that of the dispatch service provider to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users.

11.6. You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consents. This will simultaneously terminate your consent to its dispatch by the dispatch service provider and the statistical analyses. A separate cancellation of the dispatch by the dispatch service provider or the statistical analysis is unfortunately not possible. A link to cancel the newsletter can be found at the end of each newsletter. If users have only registered for the newsletter and cancelled this registration, their personal data will be deleted.

This includes information about your interactions with us and our content, your IP address, information from cookies, pixels or similar technologies, and other information that you provide to Meta or that Meta may collect based on your use of its services. The data may also be processed in countries outside the European Union. This may result in risks for users because, for example, it could make it more difficult to enforce users' rights.

13.3. We have no influence on the type and scope of the data that Meta collects, nor on its further processing and use. We also have no knowledge of the full scope of the data collection, its legal basis, the purposes and the storage periods.

The joint responsibility is limited to the collection by and transmission of data to Meta. The further processing of the data is the sole responsibility of Meta. This applies in particular to the transfer of data to the parent company Meta Platforms, Inc. in the USA on the basis of the standard contractual clauses concluded between Meta Platforms Ireland Limited and Meta Platforms, Inc.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transferred directly from one controller to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.

15.7. Right to object

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data relating to you which is carried out on the basis of Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

If the personal data concerning you is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.

You have the possibility, in connection with the use of information society services - notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC - to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

15.8. Right to withdraw the consent under data protection law

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

15.9. Automated decision in individual cases including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling - which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

  • is necessary for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract between you and the controller,
  • is permitted by legislation of the Union or the Member States to which the controller is subject and that legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, or
  • is done with your express consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take reasonable steps to safeguard the rights and freedoms of, and the legitimate interests of, the data subject, which shall include, at least, the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

15.10. Right to complain to a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, workplace or the place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 GDPR.

16. Right to erasure

16.1. The data stored by us will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for their intended purpose and the deletion is not contrary to any statutory retention obligations. Deletion will also take place in particular if other permissible circumstances cease to apply. If user data is not deleted because it is required for other and legally permissible purposes, its processing is restricted, i.e. the data is blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to user data that must be retained for reasons of commercial or tax law.

16.2. In accordance with legal requirements, storage is for 6 years pursuant to Section 257 (1) HGB (commercial books, inventories, opening balances, annual financial statements, commercial letters, accounting vouchers, etc.) and for 10 years pursuant to Section 147 (1) AO (books, records, management reports, accounting vouchers, commercial and business letters, documents relevant for taxation, etc.).

17. Right of objection

Users may object to the future processing of their personal data in accordance with the legal requirements at any time. The objection can be made in particular against the processing for purposes of direct advertising.

18. Changes to the privacy policy

18.1. We reserve the right to change the privacy policy in order to adapt it to changed legal situations, or in the event of changes to the service as well as data processing. However, this only applies with regard to declarations on data processing. Insofar as user consents are required or components of the data protection declaration contain provisions of the contractual relationship with the users, the changes will only be made with the consent of the users.

18.2. Users are requested to inform themselves regularly about the content of the privacy policy.
