4. Data Collection on Our Website
Cookies
Some of the web pages on this site use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our website more user-friendly, effective, 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 at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.
You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to block cookies in certain cases or generally, and to enable the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies that are necessary for the electronic communication process or for providing certain functions you have requested (e.g., the shopping cart function) are stored pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. To the extent that other cookies (e.g., cookies used to analyze your browsing behavior) are stored, these are addressed separately in this Privacy Policy.
This website uses cookies. We use cookies, for example, to optimize the website and its features for you, to integrate social media, or to analyze website traffic. Under “Details,” you can find more information and select the cookies you want to enable. You can view and change your selections at any time in the Privacy Policy. By clicking “Agree,” you accept your selections. Technically necessary cookies will still be set even if you decline these options.

Contact Form
If you submit inquiries to us via the contact form, we will store the information you provide in the inquiry form—including the contact information you provide there—for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this data without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based solely on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time. To do so, simply send us an informal email. The lawfulness of the data processing operations carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request that we delete it, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions—in particular retention periods—remain unaffected.

You can register on our website to access additional features on the site. We use the information you provide solely for the purpose of using the specific offering or service for which you have registered.

The processing of the data you provide during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, simply send us an informal email. The lawfulness of any data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

8. Analytics Tools and Advertising
Google reCAPTCHA
We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on our websites. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
reCAPTCHA is used to verify whether data entry on our websites (e.g., in a contact form) is performed by a human or by an automated program. To do this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the website visitor’s behavior based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor accesses the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various pieces of information (e.g., IP address, the length of time the visitor spends on the website, or the user’s mouse movements). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not notified that an analysis is taking place.
Data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offerings from abusive automated surveillance and spam.
For more information about Google reCAPTCHA and Google’s Privacy Policy, please visit the following links: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/android.html.
Use of Google Analytics
This website uses the web analytics service “Google Analytics,” operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, or, if your company is headquartered or you reside in the EU, Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).
Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies,” which are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your use of the website, provided you have consented to the use of cookies for marketing purposes.
The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there.
IP anonymization is enabled on this website. However, by activating IP anonymization using the -anonymizeIP function on this website, your IP address will be truncated by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the United States and truncated there.
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide the website operator with other services related to website and Internet usage.
The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data held by Google.
You can prevent cookies from being stored by adjusting your browser settings accordingly; however, please note that in this case, you may not be able to use all features of this website to their full extent. The data is deleted after 14 months.
You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address), as well as from processing this data, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
The Terms of Use and privacy policy can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/.
Google processes your personal data on our behalf. We have therefore entered into a data processing agreement with Google in accordance with Article 28(3) of the GDPR, in which Google undertakes to protect your personal data and not to disclose it to third parties for any purposes other than those mentioned above.
The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is your consent pursuant to Article 6(1), first sentence, letter a of the GDPR, provided that you give us your consent when you first visit the site.
Since there is no adequacy decision by the EU Commission regarding the transfer of personal data to the United States, we have entered into standard data protection clauses with Google pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) of the GDPR.
You may revoke your consent to data processing and transfer at any time without providing a reason by sending a message to our Data Protection Officer using the contact information provided, or by deleting the cookies in your browser.
The lawfulness of any data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation of your consent.
