Data protection

Introduction

We take the protection of your private data seriously. We pay particular attention to privacy when processing personal data. Personal data is used in accordance with the provisions of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). The operators of this website are committed to confidentiality. These websites may contain links to third-party websites that are not covered by this privacy statement.

Personal data

Personal data is information that can be used to identify an individual. This includes information such as name, address, postcode, telephone number. Information that is not directly linked with the real identity (such as favourite websites or the number of users of a site) is not included. You can use our online offer without disclosing your identity. In connection with access to our pages, data (e.g. IP address, date, time and pages viewed) is stored on the server side. There will be no use of personal data. The statistical analysis of anonymous data records remains reserved. We only use personal data for the purpose of the technical administration of websites and customer management and only to the extent that it is necessary for this purpose. In addition, personal data is only stored if it is provided voluntarily.

Transfer of personal data

We only use personal data for this website. We do not pass the information on to third parties without explicit consent. Should data be transferred to the service provider within the scope of order data processing, it is bound by the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), other legal regulations and to this privacy statement. Surveys or transfers of personal data to government agencies and authorities are only conducted in accordance with the mandatory legal provisions.

Use of cookies

We use cookies – small files with configuration information. They help to determine user-specific settings and to implement special user functions. We do not collect personal data about cookies. All functions of the website can also be used without cookies, but some user-defined properties and settings may then no longer be available.

Children

Persons under the age of 18 should not transfer any personal data to us without the consent of their parents or legal guardians. We do not request personal data from children, do not collect any data and do not pass it on to third parties.

Right of revocation

If you have provided us with personal data, for example in comments, you have the possibility to delete it. An e-mail with the data and cover letter to the administrator (e-mail address can be found in the masthead) is sufficient.

Links

Our online offer contains links to other websites. We have no influence on whether their operators comply with data protection regulations.

Questions and comments

If you have any questions or comments regarding data protection, please send an e-mail to the website operating company.

Right to information

You have the right at all times to obtain information about the personal data, the origin and the recipient, as well as the purpose for data processing. Information about the stored data is provided by the website operators.

Security notice

We endeavour to store your personal data in such a way that it cannot be accessed by third parties, by taking all possible technical and organisational measures. When communicating by e-mail, complete data security cannot be guaranteed by us, so we recommend delivery by the postal service for confidential information.
