4. Data Collection on Our Website

Cookies
Some of our web pages use cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies help make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and to allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general, and activate automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Cookies required for carrying out electronic communication or for providing certain functions you request (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for technically error-free and optimized provision of services. Other cookies (e.g. for analyzing your browsing behavior) are treated separately in this privacy policy.

Server Log Files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These include:

  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, which permits processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the form, including the contact data you provide there, will be stored for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass this data on without your consent.

Processing of the data entered into the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal email notification to us is sufficient. The legality of data processing operations carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after completion of your request). Mandatory statutory provisions—especially retention periods—remain unaffected.


5. Analytics Tools and Advertising

Google Analytics
This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies.” These are text files stored on your computer that enable 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.

Storage of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both its website and advertising.

IP Anonymization
We have activated the IP anonymization feature on this website. This means your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide further services related to website and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser within Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Browser Plugin
You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. 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 downloading and installing the browser plugin available at:

Data Processing Agreement
We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

Google Ads and Conversion Tracking
This website uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising program by Google Inc.

As part of Google Ads, we use conversion tracking. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is set. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If a user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.

Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of Ads customers. The information collected via conversion cookies is used to create conversion statistics. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that personally identifies users.

If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object by disabling the Google Conversion Tracking cookie via your browser settings.

Google reCAPTCHA
We use “Google reCAPTCHA” on our websites. This is used to check whether data input (e.g. in a contact form) is made by a human or an automated program. For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyzes user behavior based on various characteristics.

The analysis begins automatically as soon as the visitor enters the website. The data collected during analysis is forwarded to Google.

The processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offerings from abusive automated spying and spam.
