Usage Data

When you visit our website, our web server temporarily evaluates usage data for statistical purposes in order to improve the quality of our website. This data consists of the following data categories:

• the name and address of the requested content,
• the date and time of the query,
• of the transferred data volume,
• the access status (content transferred, content not found),
• the description of the used web browser and operating system,
• the referral link, which indicates from which page you reached ours,
• the IP address of the requesting computer, which is shortened in such a way that a personal reference can no longer be established.

The above-mentioned log data will only be evaluated anonymously.

Anonymous Visitor Measurement

We carry out anonymous visitor measurement on our website. For this purpose, the web server data logs as well as the abbreviated IP address are evaluated.

No personal evaluations about you are possible.

Storage of IP Address for Security Purposes

We store the complete IP address transmitted by your web browser for a period of seven days in the interest of detecting, limiting and eliminating attacks on our web pages. After this period, we delete or anonymize the IP address.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

Data Security

We take technical and organizational measures to protect your data as comprehensively as possible from unwanted access. These measures include encryption procedures on our web pages. Your data is transferred from your computer to our server and vice versa via the internet using TLS encryption.

You can usually recognize this by the fact that the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser is closed and the address line begins with https://.

Consent banner

We use a consent management platform (consent or cookie banner) on our websites. The processing in connection with the use of the consent management platform and the logging of the settings you have made is based on our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR to provide you with our content according to your preferences and to be able to prove your consent(s). The settings you have made, the consents you have given and parts of your usage data are stored in a cookie. This ensures that it is kept for further website visits and that your consents continue to be traceable. You can find more information about this under the section “Necessary cookies”.

The provider of the consent management platform acts on our behalf and is strictly bound by our instructions (processor). A data processing agreement in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR has been concluded.

Matomo

We use the web analysis tool “Matomo” to design our websites in accordance with the needs of our visitors. Matomo creates user profiles based on pseudonyms. For this purpose, permanent cookies are stored on your device and accessed by us. This allows us to recognise returning visitors and count them as such.

The data processing is based on your consent if you have given your consent via our cookie banner. You can revoke your consent at any time. Please follow this link and make the appropriate settings via our banner.

The cookies set are deleted or no longer processed after 13 months or after you withdrew your consent.

Contact Form

You may contact us third-party via our contact form. In order to use our contact form, we will require you to provide the data marked as mandatory.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, being our legitimate interest to respond to your request.

You can decide whether or not you would like to provide us with further information. This information is provided voluntarily and is not required to contact us.

We process your voluntary details on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) 1a) GDPR. Your data will only be processed to process your request. We will delete your data if they are no longer required and there are no legal obligations to retain them.

In addition, you can withdraw your consent to the processing of your voluntarily provided information at any time.  To do so, please use the email address provided in the imprint.

Social Plugins

We enable the usage of social plugins on our website. However, for data protection reasons, we only integrate these social plugins e in a deactivated form. Therefore, when you visit our websites, no data is transmitted to social media services.

You can, however, activate and use the social plugins integrated in our websites. For this purpose, we use a solution by which our web server provides all data and functions required to display the social plugin in the first step. Only after you choose to activate the respective social plugin by clicking on the corresponding preview image or icon, will your browser establish a connection to the servers of the provider of the respective social media service as a second step.

If you activate a plugin, the social media service receives in particular your IP address and, among other things, information about your visit to our websites. This happens regardless of whether you have registered an account with the respective social media service. If you are logged in, the data can be directly assigned to your social media profile.

Overall, we have no influence on whether and to what extent the respective social media service processes personal data after activation. However, it is likely that the social media service will create user profiles based on your data and use them for the purpose of personalized advertising. Furthermore, your data will be used to inform other users of the social media service about your activities on our websites.

The legal basis for this integration is your consent according to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or §15 S. 3 Nr. 1 German Telemedia Act (TMG), if you have given your consent by clicking on the preview image. Please note that the integration of many social plugins means that your data is processed outside the EU or EEA. In some countries, there is a risk that authorities may access the data for security and surveillance g purposes without you being informed or having the right to appeal.

If we use providers in third countries without an adequate level of protection and you give your consent, the transfer to this third country is based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR.

If you no longer wish your personal data to be processed by the activated social plugins, you can prevent future processing by not clicking on the preview image or icon of the respective Social Plugin.

Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (Instagram)	1 year	For transfers to the USA, an adequate level of data protection is guaranteed due to the provider’s certification under the adequacy decision (EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework).	If you no longer wish your personal data to be processed by the activated social plugins, you can prevent future processing by not clicking on the preview image or icon of the respective Social Plugin.

Map Services

On our web sites, we embed map services which are not stored on our servers.

To ensure that calling up our websites with embedded map services does not automatically lead to the reloading of content of the third-party provider, in a first step, we only display locally stored preview images of the maps in a first step. This does not provide the third-party provider with any information.

Only after clicking on the preview image the content of the third-party provider will be reloaded. The third-party provider is therefore able to obtain the information that you have accessed our site as well as the usage data that is technically required in this context. We have no influence on the further data processing by the third-party provider. By clicking on the preview image, you give us permission that contents from the third-party provider are reloaded.

The embedding is based on your consent, provided you have given your consent by clicking on the preview image.

Please note that the embedding of some map services results in that your data will be processed outside the EU or EEA (in particular the USA). If data is processed outside the EU or the EEA (in particular in the USA) in this context, we provide information about the level of data protection in the following table.

Provider	Data Retention	Adequate Data Protection Level	Withdrawal of Consent
Google LLC (USA)	1 year	For transfers to the USA, an adequate level of data protection is guaranteed due to the provider’s certification under the adequacy decision (EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework).	If you have clicked on a preview image, the content of the third-party provider is immediately downloaded. To avoid this downloading on other sites, please do not click on the preview image.

Embedding of additional technical third-party content and functions

We use functions and content of the third-party providers listed below to enhance our websites.

Calling up our pages leads to the content of the third-party provider being reloaded, who provides these functions and content. This provides the third-party provider with the information that you have accessed our site as well as the usage data technically required in this context.

We have no influence on the further data processing by the third-party provider.

The data processing is based on your consent, provided that you have previously given your consent via our consent banner.

Please note that the use of third-party content and features may result in your data being processed outside the EU or EEA (in particular in the US). For transfers to the USA, an adequate level of data protection is ensured due to the adequacy decision (EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework).
