We take data protection seriously

Protecting your privacy when processing personal data is an important concern for us. When you visit our website, our web servers store the IP of your Internet service provider, the website from which you visit us, the web pages you visit on our site and the date and duration of your visit as standard. This information is essential for the technical transmission of the web pages and secure server operation. There is no personalized evaluation of this data.

Personal data

Personal data is data about your person. This includes your name, your address and your e-mail address. You do not have to disclose any personal data in order to visit our website. In some cases, we need your name and address as well as other information in order to be able to offer you the requested service.

The same applies if we supply you with information material on request or if we answer your inquiries. In these cases, we will always point this out to you. Furthermore, we only store the data that you have transmitted to us automatically or voluntarily.

If you use one of our services, we generally only collect the data that is necessary to provide you with our service. We may ask you for further information, but this is voluntary. Whenever we process personal data, we do so in order to be able to offer you our service or to pursue our commercial objectives.

Contacting us

When contacting us (e.g. via contact form, email, telephone or social media), the details of the person making the inquiry are processed insofar as this is necessary to respond to the contact inquiry and any measures requested.

Contact inquiries are answered in the context of contractual or pre-contractual relationships in order to fulfil our contractual obligations or to respond to (pre)contractual inquiries and otherwise on the basis of legitimate interests in responding to the inquiries.

• Processed data types: Inventory data (e.g. names, addresses), Contact data (e.g. e-mail, telephone numbers), Content data (e.g. entries in online forms).
• Data subjects: Communication partners.
• Purposes of processing: Contact requests and communication.
• Legal bases: Contract fulfillment and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. GDPR), Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR).

Automatically stored data

Server log files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are

• Date and time of the request
• Name of the requested file
• Page from which the file was requested
• Access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.)
• Web browser and operating system used
• Complete IP address of the requesting computer
• Volume of data transferred

This data is not merged with other data sources. Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.

For reasons of technical security, in particular to defend against attempted attacks on our web server, this data is stored by us for a short period of time. It is not possible for us to draw conclusions about individual persons from this data. After seven days at the latest, the data is anonymized by shortening the IP address at domain level so that it is no longer possible to establish a link to the individual user. The data is also processed in anonymized form for statistical purposes; it is not compared with other data sets or passed on to third parties, even in excerpts. Only in the context of our server statistics, which we publish every two years in our activity report, does a presentation of the number of page views take place.

Cookies

When you visit our website, we may store information on your computer in the form of cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of session cookies, the controller can provide the users of this website with a user-friendly service that would not be possible without the setting of cookies. Without consent, we only use technically necessary cookies on the legal basis of legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

We only use personal cookies to improve our website or for marketing/advertising purposes with your consent. On your first visit, you can voluntarily consent to tracking or analysis via the cookie banner that appears. Your data may be passed on to partners or third-party providers. These cookies are only stored if you explicitly consent to this; the legal basis is then your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

You can change your settings for the use of cookies here at any time:

Google Tag Manager

We use the Google Tag Manager. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Tag Manager is a tool that allows us to integrate tracking or statistical tools and other technologies on our website. The Google Tag Manager itself does not create any user profiles, does not store any cookies and does not carry out any independent analyses. It is only used to manage and display the tools integrated via it. However, Google Tag Manager records your IP address, which may also be transmitted to Google's parent company in the United States.

The Google Tag Manager is used on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the fast and uncomplicated integration and management of various tools on its website. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyze the behavior of website visitors. In doing so, the website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, length of visit, operating systems used and origin of the user. This data is summarized in a user ID and assigned to the respective end device of the website visitor.

We can also use Google Analytics to record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks, among other things. Google Analytics also uses various modeling approaches to supplement the data records collected and uses machine learning technologies for data analysis.

Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of the user for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. You can find details here: [https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.](https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs)

Browser plugin

You can prevent the collection and processing of your data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: [https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.](https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de) You can find more information on how Google Analytics handles user data in Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Google signals

We use Google signals. When you visit our website, Google Analytics records your location, search history and YouTube history as well as demographic data (visitor data), among other things. This data can be used for personalized advertising with the help of Google Signal. If you have a Google account, the visitor data from Google Signal is linked to your Google account and used for personalized advertising messages. The data is also used to compile anonymized statistics on the user behavior of our users.

Google Analytics e-commerce measurement

This website uses the "e-commerce measurement" function of Google Analytics. With the help of e-commerce measurement, the website operator can analyze the purchasing behavior of website visitors to improve its online marketing campaigns. Information such as orders placed, average order values, shipping costs and the time from viewing to purchasing a product is recorded. This data can be summarized by Google under a transaction ID that is assigned to the respective user or their device.

Facebook Custom Audiences (for websites) / Conversion - Facebook Pixel

This website uses the so-called "Facebook Pixel" and the Conversions API of the social network "Facebook" from Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (Meta) for the following purposes:

Facebook (Website) Custom Audiences

We use the Facebook Pixel and the Conversions API for remarketing purposes in order to be able to address you again within 180 days. This allows users of the website to be shown interest-based advertisements ("Facebook ads") when they visit the social network "Facebook" or other websites that also use the process. We are interested in showing you advertisements that are of interest to you in order to make our website or offers more interesting for you.

Facebook Conversion

With the help of Facebook Pixel and the Conversions API, we also want to ensure that our Facebook Ads correspond to the potential interest of users and are not annoying. With the help of the Facebook pixel, we can track the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called "conversion").

Due to the marketing tools used (Facebook Pixel and Conversions API), your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Facebook server as soon as you have consented to the use of cookies requiring consent. By integrating the Facebook pixel and using the Conversions API, Facebook receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding website of our Internet presence or have clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Facebook service, Facebook can assign the visit to your account.

Facebook processes the data in accordance with Facebook's data usage policy. Specific information and details about the Facebook pixel and the Conversions API and how it works can also be found in Facebook's help section.

3. Information on the collection of personal data

3.1 Facebook page

We operate this page as a communication and information channel to provide information about our offers. Personal data is processed in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation on the basis of our legitimate interest in using this contemporary information and interaction opportunity with users and visitors to the page.

We would like to point out that you use this Facebook page and its functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g. commenting, sharing, rating)

Processing of personal data by Facebook

When you visit our Facebook page, Facebook collects, among other things, your IP address and other information that is stored on your PC in the form of cookies. This information is used to provide us, as the operator of the Facebook pages, with statistical information about the use of the Facebook page. Facebook provides more information on this under the following link: [http://de-de.facebook.com/help/pages/insights.](http://de-de.facebook.com/help/pages/insights)

The data collected about you in this context is processed by Facebook Ltd. and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union.

What information Facebook receives and how it is used is described by Facebook in general terms in its data usage guidelines. There you will also find information on how to contact Facebook and the settings options for advertisements. The data usage guidelines and the information required under Article 13(1)(a) and (b) GDPR are available at the following link: [http://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy.](http://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy)

Facebook does not conclusively and clearly state how it uses the data from visits to Facebook pages for its own purposes, to what extent activities on the Facebook page are assigned to individual users, how long Facebook stores this data and whether data from a visit to the Facebook page is passed on to third parties, and we are not aware of this.

When you access a Facebook page, the IP address assigned to your device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymized (for "German" IP addresses) and deleted after 90 days. Facebook also stores information about the end devices of its users (e.g. as part of the "login notification" function); this may enable Facebook to assign IP addresses to individual users.

If you are currently logged in to Facebook as a user, a cookie with your Facebook ID is stored on your device. This enables Facebook to track that you have visited this page and how you have used it. This also applies to all other Facebook pages. Facebook buttons integrated into websites enable Facebook to record your visits to these websites and assign them to your Facebook profile. This data can be used to tailor content or advertising to you. If you want to avoid this, you should log out of Facebook or deactivate the "stay logged in" function, delete the cookies on your device and close and restart your browser. This will delete Facebook information that can be used to directly identify you. This allows you to use our Facebook page without revealing your Facebook ID. If you access interactive functions on the page (like, comment, share, message, etc.), a Facebook login screen will appear. After logging in, you will once again be recognizable to Facebook as a specific user.

Since personal data is transferred to the USA, further protective mechanisms are required to ensure the level of data protection required by the GDPR. To ensure this, we have agreed standard data protection clauses with the provider in accordance with Art. 46 para. 2 lit. c) GDPR. These oblige the recipient of the data in the USA to process the data in accordance with the level of protection in Europe. In cases in which this cannot be ensured even by this contractual extension, we endeavor to obtain additional regulations and assurances from the recipient in the USA. Further information from the third-party provider on data protection, including the legal basis on which Facebook Ireland relies and information on how you can manage or delete existing information about you, can be found on the following Facebook website: [https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy.](https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy)

Processing of data by us:

We can access statistical data of different categories via the so-called "Insights" of the Facebook page. These statistics are generated and provided by Facebook. As the operator of the page, we have no influence on the generation and presentation of this data. We cannot deactivate this function or prevent the generation and processing of the data. Facebook provides us with the following data relating to our Facebook page for a selectable period of time and for the categories fans, subscribers, people reached and people interacting:

• Total number of page views and activities, post interactions ("likes", comments, shared content, clicks on links, etc.), (post) reach, video views, replies,
• Proportion of men and women,
• Origin in relation to country and city,
• language,
• views and clicks in the store,
• Clicks on route planners,
• clicks on telephone numbers.

Data on the Facebook groups linked to our Facebook page is also provided in this way. Due to the constant development of Facebook, the availability and processing of the data changes, so we refer you to Facebook's privacy policy for further details. We use this data, which is available in aggregated form, to make our posts and activities on our Facebook page more attractive to users. For example, we use the distribution by age and gender for a customized approach and the preferred visiting times of the users for a time-optimized planning of our posts. Information about the type of end devices used by visitors helps us to adapt the visual design of our posts accordingly. In accordance with the Facebook terms of use, which every user has agreed to when creating a Facebook profile, we can identify subscribers and fans of the page and view their profiles and other information shared by them.

Rights of users:

Facebook Ireland assumes primary responsibility under the GDPR for the processing of Insights data as part of the joint responsibility agreement concluded between us and Facebook and fulfills all obligations under the GDPR with regard to the processing of Insights data (including Articles 12 and 13 GDPR, Articles 15 to 22 GDPR and Articles 32 to 34 GDPR). In addition, Facebook Ireland will make the essence of this Page Insights Addendum available to data subjects.

You are welcome to contact both us and Facebook if you have any questions. As part of the agreement that exists between us and Facebook, we will forward your request to Facebook without delay, insofar as Facebook alone has to comply with your data subject rights. Facebook Ireland will respond to requests in accordance with our obligations under this Page Insights Addendum.

3.2 Instagram page

We operate this page as a communication and information channel to provide information about our offers. Personal data is processed in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation on the basis of our legitimate interest in using this contemporary information and interaction opportunity with users and visitors to the site.

We would like to point out that you use this Instagram page and its functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g. commenting or rating).

When you visit our Instagram page, Facebook collects, among other things, your IP address and other information that is stored on your device in the form of cookies. This information is used to provide us, as the operator of the Instagram page, with statistical information about the use of the Instagram page. The data collected about you in this context is processed by Facebook and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union. What information Facebook receives and how it is used is described in general terms in Facebook's privacy policy. There you will also find information on how to contact Facebook and the settings options for advertisements. The privacy policy is available at the following link: https://help.instagram.com/519522125107875

Facebook does not conclusively and clearly state how it uses the data from visits to Instagram pages for its own purposes, to what extent activities on the Instagram page are assigned to individual users, how long Facebook stores this data and whether data from a visit to the Instagram page is passed on to third parties, and we are not aware of this.

When you access an Instagram page, the IP address assigned to your device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymized (for "German" IP addresses) and deleted after 90 days. Facebook also stores information about the end devices of its users (for example, as part of the "login notification" function); Facebook may thus be able to assign IP addresses to individual users.

3.3 Twitter page

We operate this page as a communication and information channel to provide information about our offers. Personal data is processed in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation on the basis of our legitimate interest in using this contemporary information and interaction option with users and visitors to the site.

We would like to point out that you use the Twitter short message service offered here and its functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g. sharing or rating). Information about which data is processed by Twitter and for what purposes it is used can be found in Twitter's privacy policy: [https://twitter.com/de/privacy.](https://twitter.com/de/privacy)

We have no influence on the type and scope of the data processed by Twitter, the type of processing and use or the disclosure of this data to third parties. We also have no effective control options in this respect. When you use Twitter, your personal data is collected, transmitted, stored, disclosed and used by Twitter. On the one hand, Twitter processes your voluntarily entered data such as name and user name, e-mail address, telephone number or the contacts in your address book when you upload or synchronize it. On the other hand, Twitter also evaluates the content you share to determine which topics you are interested in, stores and processes confidential messages that you send directly to other users and can determine your location using GPS data, information on wireless networks or your IP address in order to send you advertising or other content.

Twitter may use analysis tools such as Twitter or Google Analytics for evaluation purposes. We have no influence on the use of such tools by Twitter and have not been informed of such potential use. If tools of this type are used by Twitter for our account, we have neither commissioned nor approved this nor supported it in any other way. The data obtained during the analysis is also not made available to us. Only certain, non-personal information about tweet activity, such as the number of profile or link clicks through a particular tweet, can be viewed by us via our account. Furthermore, we have no way of preventing or disabling the use of such tools on your Twitter account.

Finally, Twitter also receives information when you view content, for example, even if you have not created an account. This so-called "log data" may include your IP address, browser type, operating system, information about the website you previously visited and the pages you viewed, your location, your mobile service provider, the device you are using (including device ID and application ID), the search terms you used and cookie information.

You have the option of restricting the processing of your data in the general settings of your Twitter account and under "Privacy and security". On mobile devices (smartphones, tablet computers), you can also restrict Twitter's access to contact and calendar data, photos, location data, etc. in the settings options there. However, this depends on the operating system used.

As personal data is transferred to the USA, further protective mechanisms are required to ensure the level of data protection required by the GDPR. To ensure this, we have agreed standard data protection clauses with the provider in accordance with Art. 46 para. 2 lit. c) GDPR. These oblige the recipient of the data in the USA to process the data in accordance with the level of protection in Europe. In cases where this cannot be ensured even by this contractual extension, we endeavor to obtain additional regulations and assurances from the recipient in the USA.

We also process your data. We do not collect any data ourselves via your Twitter account. However, the data you enter on Twitter, in particular your user name and the content published under your account, will be processed by us to the extent that we may re-tweet your tweets or reply to them or write tweets that refer to your account. The data freely published and distributed by you on Twitter can thus be included by us in our offer and made accessible to our followers.

3.5 LinkedIn page

We operate this page as a communication and information channel to provide information about our offers. Personal data is processed in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation on the basis of our legitimate interest in using this contemporary information and interaction opportunity with users and visitors to the site.

We would like to point out that you use this LinkedIn page and its functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (for example, if you leave a comment, click a Like button, share a post, send us a message, visit the page or otherwise interact with our LinkedIn page).

We have no influence on the type and scope of the data processed by LinkedIn, the type of processing and use or the transfer of this data to third parties. We also have no effective control options in this respect. By using LinkedIn, your personal data is collected, transferred, stored, disclosed and used by LinkedIn

You have the option of restricting the processing of your data in the general settings of your LinkedIn account. In addition, on mobile devices (smartphones, tablet computers), you can restrict LinkedIn's access to contact and calendar data, photos, location data, etc. in the settings options there. However, this depends on the operating system used.

Since personal data is transferred to the USA, further protective mechanisms are required to ensure the level of data protection required by the GDPR. To ensure this, we have agreed standard data protection clauses with the provider in accordance with Art. 46 para. 2 lit. c) GDPR. These oblige the recipient of the data in the USA to process the data in accordance with the level of protection in Europe.

In cases where this cannot be ensured even by this contractual extension, we endeavor to obtain additional regulations and assurances from the recipient in the USA.

We also process your data when you communicate with us via LinkedIn. By analyzing the views and interactions on our LinkedIn page, we obtain usage profiles and statistics. The visitor statistics generated are only transmitted to us in anonymized form. We do not have access to the underlying data. This information collected by LinkedIn is also used to create demographic and geographical evaluations that are made available to us. All this information enables companies to better understand which posts interest users in order to better interact with their target group or to place better advertising.
