3. Data collection on our website

 

Cookies

Some of our web pages use cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain any viruses.

Cookies help make our website more user-friendly, efficient, and secure. Cookies are small text files that

are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called „session cookies.“ They are automatically deleted after your

visit. Other cookies remain in your device‘s memory until you delete them. These cookies make it possible

to recognize your browser when you next visit the site.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide on a caseby-

case basis whether to accept or reject a cookie. Alternatively, your browser can be configured to

automatically accept cookies under certain conditions or to always reject them, or to automatically delete

cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Cookies which are necessary to allow electronic communications or to provide certain functions you wish

to use (such as the shopping cart) are stored pursuant to Art. 6 paragraph 1, letter f of DSGVO. The

website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies to ensure an optimized service

provided free of technical errors. If other cookies (such as those used to analyze your surfing behavior)

are also stored, they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.

 

Server log files

The website provider automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically

transmits to us in „server log files“. These are:

Browser type and browser version

Operating system used

Referrer URL

Host name of the accessing computer

Time of the server request

IP address

These data will not be combined with data from other sources.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a

contract or for measures preliminary to a contract.

 

Contact form

Should you send us questions via the contact form, we will collect the data entered on the form, including

the contact details you provide, to answer your question and any follow-up questions. We do not share

this information without your permission.

We will, therefore, process any data you enter onto the contact form only with your consent per Art. 6

(1)(a) DSGVO. You may revoke your consent at any time. An informal email making this request is

sufficient. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent

for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any

mandatory statutory provisions, especially those regarding mandatory data retention periods, remain

unaffected by this provision.

 

4. Analytics and advertising

transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with any other data held by

Google.
