Privacy Policy

1) Information on the collection of personal data and the contact details of the data controller

1.1 We are delighted that you have visited our website and thank you for your interest. Below, we set out how we handle your personal data when you use our website. In this context, personal data refers to any data that can be used to identify you personally.

1.2 The data controller for this website within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is our company. The data controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

1.3 For security reasons and to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential content (e.g. orders or enquiries to the data controller), this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the string ‘https://’ and the padlock icon in your browser address bar.

2) Data collection when visiting our website

If you use our website solely for information purposes – i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information – we only collect data that your browser transmits to our server (so-called ‘server log files’). When you visit our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display the website to you:

The page visited

Date and time of access

Volume of data transmitted in bytes

Source/referrer from which you accessed the page

Browser used

Operating system used

IP address used (in anonymised form where applicable)

Processing is carried out in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data will not be disclosed or used for any other purpose. However, we reserve the right to review the server log files retrospectively if there are concrete indications of unlawful use.

3) Cookies

To make your visit to our website more appealing and to enable the use of certain functions, we use cookies, i.e. small text files that are stored on your device. In some cases, these cookies are automatically deleted once you close your browser (so-called ‘session cookies’); in other cases, these cookies remain on your device for a longer period and allow you to save page settings (so-called ‘persistent cookies’) . In the latter case, you can view the retention period in the overview of your web browser’s cookie settings.

If personal data is also processed by individual cookies we use, such processing is carried out in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR either for the performance of a contract, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR where consent has been given, or in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests in ensuring the best possible functionality of the website and a user-friendly and effective browsing experience.
