  1. Acquisition, Retention, and Utilization of Personal Data a) During Website Access Upon accessing our website, the browser of your device automatically relays information to our server. This data is provisionally stored in a log file. The subsequent details are captured without user intervention and retained until automatic deletion:
  • Accessed file name
  • Access date and time
  • Volume of data transferred
  • Status of retrieval
  • Web browser type description
  • Operating system in use
  • Referring webpage
  • Service provider
  • IP address

The aforementioned data is processed to:

  • Ensure uninterrupted website connectivity,
  • Enhance user experience on our website,
  • Assess system security and reliability, and
  • Facilitate other managerial functions.

The lawful foundation for this data processing is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.f GDPR. The data is strictly used for the aforementioned purposes and is never utilized to infer personal details about the user.

Additionally, during website visits, we employ cookies along with analytical and promotional services. Further details can be found in sections 4 and 5 of this privacy policy.

  1. b) While Subscribing to Our Newsletter Our website offers a complimentary email newsletter subscription. During registration, data from the input form is relayed to us, which includes:
  • Email address

During registration, the following data is also captured:

  • IP address of the accessing device
  • Registration date and time

During the registration process, user consent for data processing is acquired, and this privacy policy is referenced.

If you commission our services and provide your email, it may subsequently be used to dispatch a newsletter. In such instances, the newsletter solely contains promotional content pertaining to our analogous products or services.

The data related to newsletter dispatch is never shared with external entities and is exclusively used for the said purpose.

The primary objective of capturing the user's email is to facilitate newsletter delivery. The acquisition of other personal data during registration is to prevent potential misuse of our services or the provided email.

The data is purged once its purpose has been fulfilled. Thus, the user's email is retained as long as the newsletter subscription remains active. Other personal data acquired during registration is typically deleted after seven days.

Users can unsubscribe from the newsletter anytime via a link provided in every newsletter. This also allows users to revoke consent for retaining personal data acquired during registration.

The legal foundation for processing data post-newsletter registration is user consent as per Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR. The legal basis for newsletter dispatch post a sale of products or services is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f in conjunction with Section 7 (3) UWG.

  1. Data Disclosure Your personal data is not shared with third parties except for the reasons outlined below. We only share your personal data if:
  • You have explicitly consented as per Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.
  • Disclosure is mandated by Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR and there's no evidence suggesting that you possess a superior legitimate interest in withholding your data,
  • There exists a legal mandate for data transfer as per Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.c GDPR, and
  • Such a transfer is legally sanctioned and necessary for fulfilling contractual obligations with you as per Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.b GDPR.
  1. Cookies At certain sections of our website, we deploy cookies. These elements allow your computer to be recognized as a technical entity during your visit, facilitating a more streamlined user experience, especially for subsequent visits. However, most browsers provide options to be notified of cookie placements, allowing you to accept, reject, or remove them. Please refer to your browser's help section for guidance on adjusting these settings. We emphasize that disabling cookies may limit some functionalities of our website. Unless otherwise specified, our use of cookies is grounded in Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.f GDPR, aiming to enhance our website's performance, thereby safeguarding our legitimate interests.
  2. Google Analytics Implementation We incorporate Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement, ensuring adherence to European data protection standards (refer to: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).

Google Analytics employs cookies, which are text files saved on your computer, enabling an analysis of your website interactions. Typically, the data generated by these cookies about your website usage is transferred and stored on a Google server in the USA. However, due to IP anonymization activation on our website, your IP address is truncated by Google within EU member states or other European Economic Area signatories. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will process this data on our behalf to evaluate website usage, compile activity reports, and provide other services related to website and internet interactions. The IP address relayed by your browser within Google Analytics will not be amalgamated with other Google datasets. You can prevent cookie storage through appropriate browser settings; however, this might limit the website's full functionality. Additionally, you can prevent Google's collection and processing of cookie-generated data (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

For further assurance, we've augmented Google Analytics on this website with the code “ga('set', 'anonymizeIp', true);” to guarantee anonymized IP address collection (IP masking).

  5. Consent Withdrawal Right You can withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting the legality of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
  6. Right to Object If your personal data processing is for public interest tasks (Art. 6 Para. 1 Letter e) GDPR) or to safeguard our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 Letter f) GDPR), you possess the right to object.
  7. Right to Lodge a Complaint If you believe your personal data processing contravenes the GDPR, you have the right, without prejudice to other remedies, to file a complaint with a supervisory authority.
