Collection of general information

If you use our website for information purposes only, meaning if you do not create an account or provide us with any other information, we collect only the personal information that your browser transmits to our server. This includes the following: Content of the request (specific page), date and time of the request, quantity of data, web browser and web browser version, operating system, the domain name of your Internet provider, the referrer URL (the page from which you access our site), access status and the IP address.

Lawful basis is Article 6, paragraph 1, subsection 1, point (f) GDPR. Without this data, it would not be technically possible to deliver and display the contents of this website. In this respect, the collection of data is absolutely necessary. In addition, we use anonymous information for statistical purposes. This helps us to optimize our website and technology. Furthermore, we reserve the right to subsequently inspect log files if we suspect illegal use of our website.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies in order to recognize repeated use of our website by the same user/internet connection subscriber. Cookies are small text files that are placed and stored on your computer by your web browser. They make the website more user-friendly and effective overall. These cookies are mostly transient cookies, which are automatically deleted when you close the browser. Transient cookies include session cookies. These cookies save a session ID that is used for assigning various requests from your browser during a single session. This allows your computer to be recognized when you return to our website. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser. However, these cookies also pass along information used to automatically recognize you. This recognition is based on the IP address stored in the cookies. The information obtained by cookies serves to identify you for subsequent visits and make it easier for you to access to our site.

Lawful basis is Article 6, paragraph 1, subsection 1, point (f) GDPR. You can configure your browser settings according to your wishes. For example, you can refuse to accept third-party cookies or all cookies. If you do so, please be aware that you may not be able to use all features of this site.

Integration of Google Maps

We use Google Maps on this website. This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and allows you to easily use the map feature. When you visit the website, Google is informed that you have opened the corresponding page on our website. In addition, the personal information that your browser sends to our server is forwarded to Google. This happens regardless of whether you are logged into a user account provided by Google or do not have a user account. When you are logged in to Google, your data is associated directly with your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses it for purposes of advertising, market research and/or tailored website design. This analysis, which even applies to anonymous users, is primarily used for placing custom ads and informing other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, but you must contact Google to exercise this right.

For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the plug-in provider, please refer to the provider's privacy policies. The privacy policy also provides further information about your rights and settings options for the protection of your privacy: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy. Google also processes your personal information in the USA and complies with the EU-US Privacy Shield framework: https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Data security

We take technical and organizational security precautions to protect your data from unauthorized access. In addition to securing the operating environment, we use encryption in some areas (online application, customer account, contact form). The information you provide is then transmitted in encrypted form using the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol to prevent misuse of your data by third parties. You can tell that a page is secure if the status bar of your browser has a closed padlock icon and the address bar has "https" in the prefix.

Rights of persons affected by the processing of personal information

You have the rights from the General Data Protection Regulation as well as the German Federal Data Protection Act, including the right to obtain information (Art. 15 GDPR), the right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR), the right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR), right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR), the right to object to processing (Art 21 GDPR) and the right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR). For more information, please contact the above-mentioned data protection officer.

Where processing of personal information is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Where we base the processing of your personal information on the balancing test for legitimate interest, you may object to processing. This is the case if processing is not necessary to fulfill a contract with you, which we describe in the above description of functions In the event of such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal information as we have done. If your objection is justified, we will examine the situation and either stop or adjust data processing or demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue processing.

You also have the option to lodge a complaint to the above-mentioned data protection officer or to a data protection supervisory authority.
