Exclusively automated data processing
We do not carry out any exclusively automated data processing.
Deletion of data and archiving obligations
The data processed by us will be deleted or restricted in its processing in accordance with Articles 17 and 18 DS-GVO. Unless expressly stated within the scope of this data protection declaration, the data stored by us will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for their intended purpose and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations. If the data is not deleted because it is required for other permissible purposes, its processing will be restricted. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for reasons of commercial or tax law.

In accordance with legal requirements, records are retained for six years pursuant to Section 257 (1) HGB (commercial books, inventories, opening balances, annual financial statements, commercial letters, accounting vouchers, etc.) and for ten years pursuant to Section 147 (1) AO (books, records, management reports, accounting vouchers, commercial and business letters, documents relevant for taxation, etc.).
Changes and updates to the privacy policy
We reserve the right to adapt this data protection declaration. Should changes require an act of cooperation on your part (e.g. consent) or other individual notification, we will inform you additionally.
Relevant legal basis
In accordance with Art. 13 DS-GVO, we inform you about the legal basis for our data processing. Unless the legal basis is explicitly stated for a particular processing, the following applies: The legal basis for processing based on consent is Art. 6(1)(a) and Art. 7 DS-GVO, the legal basis for processing for the performance of our services and implementation of contractual measures as well as answering inquiries is Art. 6(1)(b) DS-GVO, the legal basis for processing for the performance of our legal obligations is Art. 6(1)(c) DS-GVO and the legal basis for processing for the protection of our legitimate interests is Art. 6(1)(f) DS-GVO.

Security of data processing
We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with Art. 32 DS-GVO, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing, as well as the varying likelihood and severity of the risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in order to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk; the measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical access to the data, as well as access concerning them, input, disclosure, ensuring availability and their separation. Furthermore, we have established procedures to ensure the exercise of data subjects‘ rights, deletion of data, and response to data compromise. Furthermore, we already take the protection of personal data into account during the development or selection of hardware, software and procedures, in accordance with the principle of data protection through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings (Art. 25 DS-GVO).
The security measures include in particular the encrypted transmission of data between your browser and our server.
Employees are bound to secrecy with regard to data protection, instructed and briefed, as well as made aware of possible liability consequences.

Disclosure and transmission of data
If, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to other persons or companies (processors or third parties), transmit it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this is always done on the basis of a legal permission (e.g. if a transmission of the data to third parties, such as to payment service providers, is required for the performance of the contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit b DS-GVO), you have consented, a legal obligation provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosts, etc.).
If we commission third parties to process data on the basis of a so-called „order processing agreement“, this is done on the basis of Art. 28 DS-GVO.
Transfers to third countries
A transfer of data to third countries only takes place if there is sufficient security for the data within the meaning of Art. 44 et seq. DS-GVO exists.

External online presence
In this section you will find information on our data processing in the context of operating external online presences, e.g. in social media.
Online presences in social media
We maintain online presences within social networks and platforms in order to be able to communicate with customers, interested parties and users active there and to inform them about our services there. When calling up the respective networks and platforms, the terms and conditions and data processing policies of the respective operators apply. Unless otherwise stated in our privacy policy, we process the data of users if they communicate with us within the social networks and platforms, e.g. write posts on our online presences or send us messages.
The links/buttons to social networks and platforms (hereinafter referred to as „social media“) used within our online offer generally only establish contact between social networks and users when users click on the links/buttons and the respective networks or their websites are called up. This function corresponds to the mode of operation of a regular online link. We would like to point out that user data may be processed outside the European Union. This may result in risks for users, for example because it may make it more difficult to enforce users‘ rights. With regard to U.S. providers that are certified under the Privacy Shield, we point out that they thereby undertake to comply with the data protection standards of the EU.
Furthermore, user data is usually processed for market research and advertising purposes.
For example, usage profiles can be created from the usage behavior and resulting interests of the users. The usage profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within and outside the platforms that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the users‘ computers, in which the usage behavior and interests of the users are stored. Furthermore, data independent of the devices used by the users may also be stored in the usage profiles (especially if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them).
The processing of the users‘ personal data is based on our legitimate interests in effectively informing users and communicating with users pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DS-GVO. If the users are asked by the respective providers for consent to data processing (i.e. declare their consent, e.g. by ticking a checkbox or confirming a button), the legal basis of the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. a, Art. 7 DS-GVO.
For a detailed description of the respective processing and the opt-out options, please refer to the information of the providers linked below.
point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the providers. Only the providers have access to the users‘ data and can take appropriate measures and provide information directly. If you still need help, you can contact us.
