Collecting general information
When you access our website, general information is automatically collected. This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your Internet service provider and the like. This is exclusively information that does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about you personally. This information is technically necessary to correctly deliver the content you have requested from websites and is mandatory when using the Internet. Anonymous information of this type is statistically evaluated by us in order to optimize our website and the technology behind it.
SSL encryption
To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption methods (such as SSL) via HTTPS.
contact form
If you contact us via email or contact form, the information you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing the request and for possible follow-up questions. We store your contact details for the purpose of communication and therefore essential business transactions. We will archive the message you send to us for order processing and essential business performance.
Using Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (hereinafter: Google). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies,” i.e. text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymization on these websites, Google will abbreviate your IP address beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and Internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google.
You can prevent cookies from being saved by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to fully use all functions of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: Browser add-on to disable Google Analytics.
In addition to or as an alternative to the browser add-on, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our sites by click on this link. This will install an opt-out cookie on your device. This will prevent Google Analytics from collecting data for this website and for this browser in the future as long as the cookie remains installed in your browser.
Use of script libraries (Google web fonts)
In order to display our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries on this website, such as Google Web Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google web fonts are transferred to your browser's cache to avoid multiple loads. If the browser does not support Google web fonts or prevents access, content is displayed in a standard font.
Calling script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library operator. It is theoretically possible — but currently also unclear whether and, if so, for what purposes — that operators of corresponding libraries collect data.
The privacy policy of library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
Using Google Maps
This website uses Google Maps API to visually display geographical information. When using Google Maps, Google also collects, processes and uses data about the use of map functions by visitors. For more information about data processing by Google, you can Google's privacy policy remove. There, you can also change your personal data protection settings in the data protection center.
Detailed instructions on how to manage your own data in connection with Google products can be found here.
Your rights to information, correction, suspension, deletion and objection
You have the right to receive information about your personal data stored by us at any time. You also have the right to correct, block or, apart from the mandatory data storage for business transactions, delete your personal data. To do so, please contact our data protection officer. The contact details can be found at the bottom.
So that a data lock can be taken into account at any time, this data must be kept in a lock file for control purposes. You can also request that the data be deleted unless there is a legal archiving obligation. If there is such an obligation, we will block your data upon request.
You can make changes or withdraw your consent by notifying us accordingly with effect for the future.
Amendment to our privacy policy
We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy from time to time so that it always meets current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services in the privacy policy, e.g. when introducing new services. The new privacy policy will then apply to your next visit.
Questions to the data protection officer
If you have any questions about data protection, please send us an e-mail or contact our data protection officer directly:
Spam Protection with Google reCAPTCHA
We have implemented Google reCAPTCHA in forms on our website to check whether the data entered in the forms comes from human visitors or from machines or automated programs, also known as “bots.” This tool automatically analyzes the behavior of website visitors as soon as they interact with the website using various information like IP address, length of stay, and mouse movements. The data processed includes usage data such as the website accessed, date and time of access, and mouse movements, as well as communication data like IP addresses, browser type, and operating system. This processing is targeted at website visitors and users of online services. The primary purpose of this processing is to prevent the misuse of our contact form, thereby enhancing security. The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. f. GDPR. The data recipients include Google Ireland Ltd, based at Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland, (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and our website hosting provider. While your personal data is processed within the EU, the retention time for the processed data is determined by Google Ireland Limited. Additional information can be found in the Google reCAPTCHA privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Website Analytics (Jimdo Statistics)
When you visit our website, we collect information about your usage through a web analytics tool provided by our hosting service. This tool collects and combines your IP address and user agent, shortens it and stores this data using a hash function. This process creates a visitor identifier that is encrypted with a randomly generated value (SALT) that changes every 24 hours. This method ensures that your IP address cannot be reconstructed from the stored visitor identifier, thus maintaining your anonymity. In addition, we do not merge this information with any other data and it is stored only on the hosting provider's server.
We also process web analytics data, HTTP data and web analytics profile data. The web analytics tool we use creates and stores a web analytics profile, which includes details about your use of the website, such as page views, visit frequency, time spent on each page, and the user agent of your device. This includes usage data (such as web pages visited and access times) and communication data (such as browser type, operating system and IP addresses).
Our purpose in processing this data is to analyse user behaviour in aggregate form in order to improve the presentation and content of our website. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. (f) GDPR), in particular in carrying out web measurements in order to improve our products and website.
The data collected is shared with our website hosting provider and processed within the EU.
