Use of our website

Each time you use our website, we collect the access data that your browser automatically transmits to enable you to visit the website. The access data includes in particular:

  • IP-address
  • Date and time of the request as well as time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
  • Content of the request (specifically requested page)
  • Access status/HTTP status code
  • Data volume transferred in each case
  • Website where the request comes from
  • Browser
  • Operating system and its interface
  • Language and version of browser software

The data processing of this access data is necessary to enable the visit of the website and to ensure the permanent functionality, security and stability of our systems. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO. For data protection reasons, log files are not permanently stored or analyzed by us. A comparison with other data or a transfer to third parties, even in excerpts, by us does not take place.

Storage period

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. a retention obligation under statutory, such as tax or commercial law, retention periods).

SSL and/or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as purchase orders or inquiries you submit to us as the website operator, this website uses either an SSL or a TLS encryption program. You can recognize an encrypted connection by checking whether the address line of the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the appearance of the lock icon in the browser line.

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

Your rights

You have the following rights with respect to the personal data concerning you: You have the right to request information about the personal data we have processed about you. When requesting information, we ask for your understanding that for legal reasons we are forced to demand proof from you that you are the person you claim to be. Furthermore, you have a right to rectification or deletion or restriction of processing, insofar as you are entitled to by law. In addition, you have a right to object (see section 6) to processing within the scope of the law. The same applies to a right to data portability. You have the right to contact a supervisory authority, for example the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision, which is responsible for us, in the event of complaints about the processing of your personal data.

Revocation of your consent

If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you may revoke this consent at any time. Such revocation will only affect the permissibility of processing your personal data after you have expressed it to us.

Right to object to the processing of your data

As far as we base the processing of your personal data on the balance of interests from Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, you can object to the processing. This is the case if the processing is not particularly necessary for the execution of a contract with you. When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as carried out by us. In the event of your objection, we will examine the merits of the case and either discontinue or adapt the data processing or show you our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.

Recording of data on this website

Cookies

Our websites and pages use what the industry refers to as “cookies.” Cookies are small data packages that do not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or they are permanently archived on your device (permanent cookies). Session cookies are automatically deleted once you terminate your visit. Permanent cookies remain archived on your device until you actively delete them, or they are automatically eradicated by your web browser.

Cookies can be issued by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services of third-party companies into websites (e.g., cookies for handling payment services).

Cookies have a variety of functions. Many cookies are technically essential since certain website functions would not work in the absence of these cookies (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies may be used to analyze user behavior or for promotional purposes.

Cookies, which are required for the performance of electronic communication transactions, for the provision of certain functions you want to use (e.g., for the shopping cart function) or those that are necessary for the optimization (required cookies) of the website (e.g., cookies that provide measurable insights into the web audience), shall be stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless a different legal basis is cited. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in the storage of required cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of the operator’s services. If your consent to the storage of the cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, the processing occurs exclusively on the basis of the consent obtained (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG); this consent may be revoked at any time.

You have the option to set up your browser in such a manner that you will be notified any time cookies are placed and to permit the acceptance of cookies only in specific cases. You may also exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general or activate the delete-function for the automatic eradication of cookies when the browser closes. If cookies are deactivated, the functions of this website may be limited.

Which cookies and services are used on this website can be found in this privacy policy.

Real Cookie Banner

Our website uses Real Cookie Banner’s consent technology to obtain your consent for the storage of certain cookies on your device or for the use of specific technologies and to document the former in a data protection compliant manner. The provider of this technology is devowl.io GmbH, Tannet 12, 94539 Grafling, Germany (hereinafter referred to as “Real Cookie Banner”).

Real Cookie Banner is installed locally on our servers, which ensures that a connection with Real Cookie Banner provider’s servers is not established. Real Cookie Banner stores a cookie in your browser to be able to allocate the consent you have granted or revoked. The data recorded in this manner will be stored until you ask us to delete them, revoke your consent to the archiving of your data or until the purpose of archiving the data no longer exists (e.g., upon completion of the processing of your inquiry). This does not affect mandatory statutory provisions – in particular those governing retention periods.

We use Real Cookie Banner to obtain the consent required by law for the use of cookies from site visitors. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.

Server log files

The provider of this website and its pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser communicates to us automatically. The information comprises:

– The type and version of browser used

– The used operating system

– Referrer URL

– The hostname of the accessing computer

– The time of the server inquiry

– The IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

This data is recorded on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in the technically error free depiction and the optimization of the operator’s website. In order to achieve this, server log files must be recorded.

Request by e-mail or telephone

If you contact us by e-mail or telephone, your request, including all resulting personal data (name, request) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass these data on without your consent.

These data are processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is required for the performance of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the data are processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries submitted to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if it has been obtained; the consent can be revoked at any time.

The data sent by you to us via contact requests remain with us until you request us to delete, revoke your consent to the storage or the purpose for the data storage lapses (e.g. after completion of your request). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
