We only store data without reference to individuals, such as the name of your Internet Service Provider, the Internet Protocol address (IP address), the page from which you visit us, the name of the requested file, the date and time of visiting our website and which browser was used. This data is used solely for statistical reasons and to improve our website and offer. It does not allow any reference to your person.

We store and use the data you provide us with for the execution of the service. After completion, your data will be stored with regard to law retention periods, and deleted after these periods have expired, unless you express consent to the further use of your data.

(3) During data processing all matters concerning confidentiality will be dealt with in accordance with legal requirements. Nevertheless, we should point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating via email) can have security gaps. A complete protection of data against unauthorized access by third parties is impossible.

Cookies

(1) Cookies are small text files which are placed on your computer. We use cookies to make the visit to our website attractive and to allow you to use certain functions. Most of the cookies we use are deleted from your hard drive after the browser session has finished (so called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your computer and allow us to recognize your computer the next time you visit our site (so called longterm cookies).

(2) In order to obtain effective user consents for cookies requiring consent and cookie-based applications from users, we use the cookie consent tool “CookieYes” of Mozilor Limited, 3 Warren Yard, Wolverton Mill, Milton Keynes, England, MK12 5NW, United Kingdom (“CookieYes”) on this website.

(3) Via a JavaScript code, you will be shown a banner when you open our website and you can decide individually (by setting of check marks) for which cookies and/or cookie-based applications you give your consent. The cookie consent tool blocks the setting of all cookies requiring consent until you give your consent (by setting of check marks). This ensures that such cookies are not set on your respective end device until you have given your consent.

(4) Via the CookieYes application, certain user informations (including the IP address) are collected, transmitted to the server of CookieYes and stored there. This serves to enable a clear individual user assignment of page views and to individually record, log and store the consent settings made by users for a session duration.

(5) This data processing is carried out according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO on the basis of our legitimate interest in a legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website. Further legal basis for the described data processing is furthermore Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO.
