Basis for Data Collection
The processing of your personal data (i.e. any data that can reasonably be used to identify you) is necessary to enable us to contact you via the contact form, to provide you with our services, to protect our legitimate interest and to comply with legal and financial regulatory obligations to which we are subject.

Please read the Privacy Policy carefully before making any decisions.
Which Data is collectedWe collect two types of data and information from users.
The first category includes non-identifying and non-identifiable user information provided or collected through use of the Site ("Non-Personal Information"). We do not know the identity of the user from whom Non-Personal Information was collected. Non-Personally Identifiable Information that may be collected includes aggregated usage data and technical information provided by your device, including certain software and hardware information (e.g., browser and operating system used on the device, language preference, access time, etc.). We use this information to improve the functionality of our website. We may also collect information about your activity on the website (e.g. pages viewed, surfing habits, clicks, actions, etc.).

CookiesWe and our partners use cookies to provide appropriate services. This also applies when you visit our website or access our services.
A "cookie" is a small data package that is assigned to your device when you visit a website from this website. Cookies are useful and can be used for various purposes. These include e.g. easier navigation between different pages, automatic activation of certain functions, saving your settings and optimised access to our services. The use of cookies also enables us to show you relevant advertising tailored to your interests and to collect statistical information on your use of our services.
This website uses the following types of cookies:
a. "Session cookies", which ensure normal system use. Session cookies are only stored for a limited time during a session and are deleted from your device when you close your browser.
b. "Permanent cookies" which are only read by the website and are not deleted when you close the browser window, but are stored on your computer for a certain period of time. This type of cookie enables us to identify you on your next visit and, for example, to save your settings.
c. "Third party cookies", which are set by other online services that have their own content on the page you visit. These could be, for example, external web analytics companies that record and analyse access to our website.
Cookies do not contain any personal data that identifies you, but the personal data we store may be linked by us to the data contained in the cookies. You can remove cookies via the device settings of your device. To do so, follow the corresponding instructions. Please note that disabling cookies may limit certain functions when using our website.
The tool we use is based on the technology of Snowplow Analytics . The information we collect about your use of our website includes, for example, how often users visit the website or which areas of the website are visited. The tool we use does not collect any personal information and is used by our web hosting and service provider solely to improve their own offerings.
Use of Script Libraries (Google Web Fonts)To ensure that our content is displayed correctly and graphically appealing in every browser, we use script and font libraries such as Google Web Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts) for this website. Google Web Fonts are cached in your browser so they only need to be loaded once. If your browser does not support Google Web Fonts or denies access, content will be displayed in a default font.
- When you access script or font libraries, we automatically connect to the library operator. There is a theoretical possibility that this operator may collect data. Currently it is not known whether and for what purpose the operators of the respective libraries actually collect data.
- You can find the privacy policy of the Google Library operator here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy
Revocation of your Consent to Data ProcessingOnly with your express consent are some data processing operations possible. A revocation of your already given consent is possible at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out up to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right of Appeal to the competent Supervisory AuthorityAs the person concerned, you have the right to complain to the relevant supervisory authority in the event of a breach of data protection law. The competent supervisory authority with regard to data protection issues is the State Data Protection Commissioner of the federal state in which our company is based. The following link provides a list of the data protection officers and their contact details: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.
Right to Data PortabilityYou have the right to have data, which we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract, handed over to you or to third parties. The provision is made in a machine-readable format. If you request direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only take place to the extent that it is technically feasible.
Right of Access, Rectification, Blocking, ErasureAs the person concerned, you have the right to complain to the relevant supervisory authority in the event of a breach of data protection law.

SSL- or TLS-EncriptionFor security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This means that data that you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the "https://" address line of your browser and the lock symbol in the browser line.
Contact FormData transmitted via the contact form will be stored including your contact data in order to be able to process your request or to be available for follow-up questions. These data will not be passed on without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). A revocation of your already given consent is possible at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up to the time of revocation shall remain unaffected by the revocation.
Data transmitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to its storage or until there is no longer any need to store the data. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.
YoutubeFor integration and display of video content our website uses plugins from YouTube. The provider of the video portal is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.
When a page with integrated YouTube plugin is called up, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells YouTube which of our pages you have visited.
YouTube can directly assign your surfing behavior to your personal profile, if you are logged in to your YouTube account. By logging out you have the possibility to prevent this.
YouTube is used in the interest of an attractive presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
Details on the handling of user data can be found in the YouTube privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
Twitter PluginOur website uses functions of the Twitter service. The provider is Twitter Inc, 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA.
When using Twitter and the "Re-Tweet" function, websites you visit are linked to your Twitter account and published in your Twitter feed. In the process, data is transmitted to Twitter. We have no knowledge about the content of the transmitted data or the use of this data by Twitter. Details can be found in the privacy policy of Twitter: https://twitter.com/privacy.Sie can change your privacy settings on Twitter: https://twitter.com/account/settings
Collection of Data by Third PartiesThis policy covers only the use and disclosure of information that we collect from you. If you post data on other websites or disclose data to third parties on the Internet, different rules may apply. You should therefore always read the terms and conditions and privacy policy carefully when you disclose information.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the business practices of companies that we do not own or control, or to anyone other than our employees and associates, including third parties to whom we disclose such information as described in this Privacy Policy.
How do we protect your Data?We implement the security measures on the website with great care and protect your data. We use industry standard procedures and policies to ensure the protection of the information collected and stored and to prevent the unauthorized use of such information. We also require third parties to comply with similar security requirements in accordance with this Privacy Policy. While we take reasonable steps to protect information, we cannot be responsible for the actions of those who have gained unauthorized access to or misuse of our website and we make no express or implied warranty that we will be able to prevent such access.
Transfer of Data outside the European Economic Area
Please note that some recipients may not be located in the European Economic Area. If this is the case, we will only transfer your data to countries approved by the European Commission with an adequate level of data protection or where a legal agreement ensures an adequate level of data protection.
AdvertisementWhen you access our Web site, we may serve ads using third-party ad serving technology. This technology uses your usage data from the services to serve ads (for example, by placing third-party cookies in your web browser).
You can opt-out of many third-party ad networks, including those operated by members of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") and the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA"). For information about the practices of NAI and DAA members, your options regarding the use of such information by these companies, and how to opt out of third-party ad networks operated by NAI and DAA members, please visit their respective websites: http://optout.networkadvertising.org/#!/ and http://optout.aboutads.info/#!/.
MarketingWe may use your personal information such as your name, e-mail address, telephone number, etc. ourselves or forward it to an external sub-contractor to provide you with promotional materials regarding our services that may be of interest to you.
We respect your right to privacy. Therefore, these marketing materials will always give you the opportunity to unsubscribe from further mailings. If you unsubscribe, your email address or telephone number will be removed from our marketing distribution lists.
Please note that even after you unsubscribe from receiving our marketing emails, we will continue to send you emails with important information that do not include an unsubscribe option. This includes maintenance or administrative notices.
Company TransactionWe may disclose information in the event of a business transaction (such as the sale of a substantial portion of the business, a merger, consolidation or asset sale). If any of the above occurs, the acquirer or the relevant company will assume the rights and obligations set forth in this Privacy Policy.

The use of our services by minors is only permitted with the prior consent or authorisation of a parent or guardian. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors.
