The responsible entity decides alone or together with others on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, contact details, etc.).
Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing
Certain data processing activities are only possible with your explicit consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time with informal notification via email. The legality of the data processing conducted before the withdrawal remains unaffected.

The competent authority for data protection matters is the data protection officer of the federal state in which our company is located.

Right to Data Portability
You have the right to have data that we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or a third party in a machine-readable format. If you request direct transfer of the data to another responsible entity, this will only occur where it is technically feasible.
Right to Access, Rectification, Blocking, Deletion
You have the right, within the scope of applicable laws, to request free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data at any time. For this purpose and for further questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time using the contact details provided in the legal notice.
SSL or TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. Data that you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize encrypted connections by the “https://” address line in your browser and the lock symbol in the browser bar.
Server Log Files
The provider of the website automatically collects and stores information in server log files that your browser automatically transmits to us. This information includes:
- The page visited on our domain
- Date and time of the server request
- Browser type and version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Hostname of the accessing computer
- IP address
This data is technically necessary for us to display our website and ensure stability and security. (The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.) These data are not combined with other data sources.
Contact Form
Data transmitted via the contact form, including your contact information, will be stored to process your inquiry or to be available for follow-up questions. These data will not be shared without your consent.
Depending on the type of inquiry, the legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR for requests you make in the context of pre-contractual measures or Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR for other inquiries. If personal data are requested that are not necessary for fulfilling a contract or safeguarding legitimate interests, their transmission to us is based on your consent under Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
Data submitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for data storage ceases to apply. Mandatory legal provisions – particularly retention periods – remain unaffected.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies. These are small text files stored on your device by your web browser. Cookies help us make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure.
Some cookies are “session cookies,” which are automatically deleted after your browser session ends. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit.
Modern web browsers allow you to monitor, restrict, or block cookies. Many web browsers can be configured to automatically delete cookies when the program is closed. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our website.
The placement of cookies necessary for electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions (e.g., shopping cart) that you desire occurs based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. If other cookies (e.g., for analysis functions) are placed, they are treated separately in this privacy policy.
Google Analytics
Type and Scope of Processing
We use Google Analytics, an analytics service from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, for the statistical evaluation of our online offering. This includes, for example, the number of visits to our website, the subpages visited, and the duration of visitor sessions. Google Analytics uses cookies and other browser technologies to evaluate user behavior and recognize users. This information is used to compile reports on website activity.
Purpose and Legal Basis
Google Analytics is used based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and §25 Para. 1 TDDG. We intend to transmit personal data to countries outside the European Economic Area, particularly the USA. Data transfer to the USA is based on Art. 45 Para. 1 GDPR on the basis of the European Commission’s adequacy decision. The participating U.S. companies and/or their subcontractors are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF).
Retention Period
The specific retention period of the processed data is determined by Google Ireland Limited. For further details, refer to the Google Analytics privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
