Privacy policy

We are aware that the protection of your privacy when using our website is an important concern. We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. Therefore, we would like you to know when we store which data and how we use it. We would like to inform you with this data protection declaration about our data protection measures.

Collection of personal data

In the following we inform about the collection of personal data when using our website. Personal data are all data which can be directly or indirectly related to you personally, e.g. name, address, e-mail addresses, user behaviour.
We process data in accordance with DS-GVO Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) b) c) f). This means that we process personal data only if consent has been given (lit. a), if it is necessary to fulfil a contract or pre-contractual measures (lit. b), if we are legally obliged to do so (lit. c) or if we have a legitimate interest in processing it (lit. f). The appropriate legal basis will be specified in each individual case.


When you contact us by e-mail or via a contact form, the data you provide (your e-mail address, your name and telephone number if applicable) will be stored by us in order to answer your questions. We delete the data arising in this connection after the purpose of the inquiry has ceased to apply. Depending on the type of enquiry, we collect this data with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO, for the processing and fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) DS-GVO or in the case of a justified interest in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. The legitimate interest lies in answering enquiries and providing information about our products and services.


When using the website for informational purposes only, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, only the data that your browser sends to the server we use is collected. If you wish to view our website, the following data is collected, which is technically necessary for us to display our website and to ensure its stability and security. The forwarding is automated by your browser and is inherent in the use of the Internet. (The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DS-GVO):

  • IP address

  • Date and time of the request

  • Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)

  • Content of the request (concrete page)

  • Access status/HTTP status code

  • Amount of data transferred in each case

  • Website from which the request comes

  • Browser

  • Operating system and its interface

  • Language and version of the browser software.

Responsible

The persons responsible in accordance with Art. 4 No. 7 EU Data Protection Basic Regulation (DS-GVO) can be found in the imprint.

Intended use

The personal data collected from you will only be used to provide you with the requested products or services or for other purposes for which you have given your consent, unless otherwise required by law.

Rights of data subjects

You have the following rights in relation to the personal data concerning you:

  • Right to information,

  • Right of correction or deletion,

  • Right to restrict processing,

  • Right to object to the processing,

  • Right to data portability.

You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data by us.

Right of withdrawal or objection to the processing of your data

If you have given your consent to process your data, you can revoke it at any time. Such a revocation influences the permissibility of processing your personal data after you have given it to us.

data retention

We store personal data for as long as this is necessary to fulfil our contractual as well as pre- and post-contractual obligations. This does not affect your right to delete or restrict processing. Furthermore, this does not affect our right to continue to store the data for legally compelling reasons (Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. c) DS-GVO) or if there is a legitimate interest (Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. b) DS-GVO). A legitimate interest is in particular the examination and enforcement of claims for damages and other claims.
Log files which are necessary for the stability and security of the system are automatically deleted after four days.

Use of cookies

The Internet pages partly use so-called cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and safer. 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 end device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit us. You can set your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If you deactivate cookies, the functionality of this website may be limited.


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:

  • Browser type and version

  • Operating system in use

  • Referrer URL

  • Host name of the accessing computer

  • Time of the server request

These data cannot be assigned to specific persons. A consolidation of this data with other data sources is not carried out.
We reserve the right to check this data subsequently if we become aware of concrete indications of illegal use.

Data collection on our website

Contact form

If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact data you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is thus exclusively based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time.
For this purpose, an informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent for storage or the purpose for which the data was stored no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

Application

If you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.) to the extent that this is necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG-neu under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO (general contract initiation) and - if you have given your consent - Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. Consent may be revoked at any time.
Within our company, your personal data will only be passed on to persons involved in the processing of your application.

If the application is successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of § 26 BDSG-neu and Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship. 

Security

We use technical and organizational security measures to protect your data from accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons. In the case of the collection and processing of personal data, the information is transmitted in encrypted form to prevent misuse of the data by third parties. Our security measures are continuously revised in line with technological developments.

Adjustments

The constant development of the Internet makes it necessary to adapt our data protection declaration from time to time. We reserve the right to make appropriate changes at any time.

Usage statistics

When you visit our site, we record anonymously how visitors came to our website and how many users called up the site. (search engine, links, direct input or advertising measures) The data is not used to identify individual visitors, but only to transmit quantitative data. The statistics cannot be used to track their behaviour on other websites. The data is not linked to other services. If you have deactivated the setting of cookies in your browser, your visits will not be recorded. Otherwise, these cookies are automatically deleted after seven days.

Third party content on the website

Our Internet presence integrates content from other providers. These can be pure content elements (e.g. news, updates), but also widgets (functions such as booking systems) or e.g. fonts and technical libraries. Google Fonts are also included. For technical reasons, this is done by loading this content from other servers by the browser. In this context, the IP currently used by your browser and the browser used by the requesting system are transmitted. Please note the respective data protection declarations of the third-party providers in this regard.
