The operators of this site take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and according to the legal data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.

In general, our website can be used without entering personal data. Where personal data is collected on our websites (for ex. name, address or e-mail addresses), this is always made on a voluntary basis, where possible. Such data will not be disclosed to third parties without your explicit consent.

We refer to the fact that security gaps may exist when transferring data on the internet (with communication by email, for example). The complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.

Personal Data

Personal data is information with the help of which a person can be determined, i.e. data which can be traced back to a person. This includes name, e-mail address, or telephone number. But also data about preferences, hobbies, memberships or which websites someone has viewed are included in personal data.

The provider only collects, uses and discloses your personal data, if it is legally permitted or if the user gives consent to data acquisition.

Contacting

If you send us enquiries using the contact form, we will store your data from the enquiry form including the contact data specified there by you for processing the enquiry and in case follow-up questions arise. We will not disclose such information without your consent.

Access data

The operator or the provider of the website collects data about site access and saves them as "server log files". These are customarily stored for a maximum of seven days. Then they are anonymised.

In this way, the following data are logged:

• Website visited
• Time of access
• amount of sent data in bytes
• source/reference from which you entered the website
• browser used
• operating system used
• IP address used (:in anonymised form, if applicable)

The data collected are merely used in statistic evaluations and for improvement of the website. However, the operator of the website reserves the right to subsequently check the server log files in case that there are concrete hints for illegal use.

Use of Third-Party Services and Contents

It may be the case that contents or services of third parties, such as videos from YouTube, map material from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites will be embedded within our online offering. This consistently requires the providers of such content (“third party providers”) to know the user’s IP address. Because without the IP address, they would not be able to send the contents to the users’ browsers.

The IP address is therefore required to display such contents. We will attempt to only use content whose provider uses the IP address for the delivery of the content only. However, we have no influence over whether the third party provider stores the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. If we are aware of this, we will inform the user.

Cookies

Some of the web pages use so-called “cookies”. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve the purpose of making our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer and stored by your browser.

Most of the cookies used by us are so-called “session cookies“. These are deleted automatically at the end of your visit. Other cookies are stored on your end device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognise your browser during your next visit to our site.

You can set your browser to inform you when cookies are being placed and to only allow cookies on a case-by-case basis, to refuse cookies in certain cases or in general, and to activate the automatic erasure of cookies when you close the browser. Deactivating cookies may limit the full functionality of this website.

SSL Encryption

For security reasons and in order to protect the transmission of confidential content such as enquiries you send to us as website operator, this website uses SSL encryption.

You can recognise an encrypted connection by the address line in the browser changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

Right to access, erasure, blocking

Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you are at any time entitled to free access to your stored personal data, their origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing and to rectification, blocking or erasure of these data, if applicable. To that end, or if you have more questions related to the topic of personal data, you can contact us at the address specified in the legal notice at any time. 

Cookie Banner

To display the Cookie Banner on the website, the necessary data from cookies.mplg.info (Marktplatz GmbH - agency for web & app) will be loaded by your browser.

No data will be stored by you.

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies“. These are text files stored on your computer allowing them to analyse how you use our website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymisation

We have activated the IP anonymisation function on this website. This means that your IP address is abbreviated by Google within European Union member states or other states which are part of the European Economic Area before it is transmitted to the US. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. 

On behalf of the provider of this website, Google uses this information to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports about the website activity and to provide further services which are connected to the use of this website and of the Internet for its operator. IP addresses which Google Analytics transmits from your browser will not be associated with other data from Google.

Browser plug-in

By changing your browser settings accordingly, you may prevent cookies from being stored; however, we point out that you may not have full access to all website functions in this case. 

In addition, you may prevent any data created by the cookie and relating to website usage on your part (including your IP address) from being transmitted to and being processed by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the link below:
