We process your personal data exclusively within the framework of the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2023.
Note: For easier readability, the term “data” is usually used, although personal data is meant. Statutory provisions without information relate exclusively to those of the GDPR, unless otherwise stated.

Scope of processing
As a matter of principle, we only collect and use personal data from our users to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The collection and use of personal data from our users is regularly carried out only with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of data is permitted by law.
Legal basis for processing personal data
Insofar as we obtain your consent to process personal data, Article 6 (1) a serves as the legal basis. When processing data that is necessary to fulfill a contract with you, Article 6 (1) b serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. Insofar as processing data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject, Art 6 (1) c serves as the legal basis. If processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if your interests and fundamental rights do not outweigh the former interest, Article 6 (1) f serves as the legal basis.
Data deletion and storage period
Your data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Storage may also take place if this is provided for by European or national regulations, laws or other regulations to which we are subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted when a storage period prescribed by the above standards expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

b) Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Article 6 (1) f.
c) Purpose of data processing
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the website to be delivered to the user's computer. To do this, the user's IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.
They are stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website. We also use the data to optimize the website and ensure the security of our information technology systems. There is no evaluation of the data for marketing purposes in this context.
These purposes also include our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f).
d) Duration of storage
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. If the data is collected to provide the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.
If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Further storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or distorted so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.
e) Objection and removal option
The collection of data to provide the website and the storage of data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. There is therefore no option for the user to object.

On our website, we use the following services for web analysis and/or reach measurement.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. These analysis services create user profiles that are stored in text files (so-called “cookies”) on your computer. This information is used to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity for us as website operators and to provide other services related to website activity and Internet usage. By using Google Analytics, the IP addresses of users are also stored. However, we use available IP masking methods (pseudonymization by shortening the IP address) to protect users.
In general, as part of the online marketing process, no clear user data (such as e-mail addresses or names) is stored, but pseudonyms. As well as Google as a provider of online marketing processes, we do not know the actual identity of the users, but only the information stored in their profiles. The information in the profiles is usually stored in cookies or using similar procedures. These cookies can generally also be read out and analysed for the purpose of presenting content on other websites that use the same online marketing process, as well as supplemented with further data and stored on the server of the online marketing process provider.
As an exception, plain data can be assigned to the profiles. This is the case if the users are, for example, members of a social network whose online marketing process we use and the network connects the users' profiles with the above information. Please note that users can make additional agreements with providers, e.g. through consent as part of registration.
In principle, we only have access to summarized information about the success of our advertisements. However, as part of so-called conversion measurements, we can check which of our online marketing processes have led to a so-called conversion, i.e. to the conclusion of a contract with us, for example. Conversion measurement is used solely to analyze the success of our marketing measures.
Hotjar
We use Hotjar Technology “Testing and Optimization”, a service provided by Hotjar Ltd., 3 Lyons Range, 20 Bisazza Street, Sliema SLM 1640, Malta. For more information about Hotjar, please visit https://www.hotjar.com and the privacy policy https://www.hotjar.com/legal/policies/privacy and the cookie policy: https://www.hotjar.com/legal/policies/cookie-information.
a) Legal basis for processing personal data
The legal basis for processing users' personal data is Article 6 (1) (f).
b) Purpose of data processing
The processing of users' personal data enables us to analyze users' surfing behavior, for example by measuring reach (e.g. access statistics, recognition of returning visitors), tracking (e.g. interest/behavioral profiling, use of cookies), visit action evaluation, profiling (creating user profiles), click tracking, A/B testing, feedback (e.g. collecting feedback via online form), heat maps (mouse movements by users that result in an overall picture are summarized), surveys and questionnaires (e.g. surveys with input options, multiple choice questions). By evaluating the data obtained, we are able to compile information about the use of the individual components of our website. This helps us to constantly improve our website and its usability.
In addition to web analysis, we can also use test methods, for example to test and optimize different versions of our online offering or its components. For these purposes, so-called user profiles can be created and stored in a file (so-called “cookie”) or similar processes can be used for the same purpose. This information may include, for example, content viewed, websites visited and elements used there, and technical information, such as the browser used, the computer system used and information on usage times. If users have consented to the collection of their location data, this may also be processed, depending on the provider. The IP addresses of users are also stored. However, we use an IP masking process (i.e. pseudonymization by shortening the IP address) to protect users. In general, as part of web analysis, A/B testing and optimization, no clear user data (such as email addresses or names) is stored, but pseudonyms. This means that we as well as the providers of the software used do not know the actual identity of the users, but only the information stored in their profiles for the purposes of the respective procedures.
These purposes also include our legitimate interest in processing the data in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f). Through the pseudonymization The IP address is sufficiently taken into account the users' interest in protecting their personal data.
The following types of data are processed for the purposes mentioned above: usage data (e.g. websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses).
c) Storage period
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for our recording purposes. The cookies set by the respective services have a different “lifespan”. Some remain valid for up to 365 days, some are only valid during the current visit. You can find out how to deactivate cookies, etc., in the section Objection and removal options.
d) Objection and removal option
We refer to the data protection policies of the respective providers and the objection options provided to the providers (so-called “opt-out”). If no explicit opt-out option has been specified, it is possible, on the one hand, to switch off cookies in your browser settings. However, this may restrict the functions of our online offering.
We therefore recommend the following additional opt-out options, which are offered in summary for respective areas: a) Europe: https://www.youronlinechoices.eu. b) Across territories: http://optout.aboutads.info.
