This privacy policy also applies to our websites and social media profiles. With regard to the definition of terms such as "personal data" or "processing", we refer to Art. 4 GDPR.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Below we inform you about the legal basis for the processing of personal data:

If we have obtained your consent for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR is the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR.
If the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject (e.g. statutory retention obligations), the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c) GDPR.
If processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. d) GDPR is the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party and your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms do not prevail in this respect, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR is the legal basis.
Disclosure of personal data to third parties and processors

We do not pass on any data to third parties without your consent. Should this nevertheless be the case, the data will be passed on on the basis of the aforementioned legal bases, e.g. when passing on data to online payment providers for contract fulfillment or due to a court order or due to a legal obligation to hand over the data for the purpose of criminal prosecution, to avert danger or to enforce intellectual property rights.

We also use processors (external service providers, e.g. for web hosting of our websites and databases) to process your data. If data is passed on to the processors as part of an agreement on order processing, this is always done in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. We select our processors carefully, monitor them regularly and have been granted the right to issue instructions regarding the data. In addition, the processors must have taken suitable technical and organizational measures and comply with the data protection regulations according to BDSG n.F. and GDPR.

Data transfer to third countries

The adoption of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has created a uniform basis for data protection in Europe. Your data is therefore primarily processed by companies to which the GDPR applies. However, if processing is carried out by third-party services outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, these must fulfill the special requirements of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR must be met. This means that the processing takes place on the basis of special guarantees, such as the EU Commission's officially recognized determination of a level of data protection corresponding to the EU or compliance with officially recognized special contractual obligations, the so-called "standard contractual clauses". In the case of US companies, submission to the so-called "Privacy Shield", the data protection agreement between the EU and the USA, fulfills these requirements.

Deletion of data and storage duration

Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies, unless its continued storage is necessary for evidence purposes or is contrary to statutory retention obligations. This includes, for example, commercial law retention obligations for business letters in accordance with Section 257 (1) HGB (6 years) and tax law retention obligations for documents in accordance with Section 147 (1) AO (10 years). If the prescribed retention period expires, your data will be blocked or deleted unless storage is still necessary for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

Existence of automated decision-making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling.

Provision of our website and creation of log files

If you only use our website for information purposes (i.e. no registration and no other transmission of information), we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect the following data - IP address;
- Internet service provider of the user;
- Date and time of access;
- Browser type;
- language and browser version;
- Content of the retrieval;
- time zone;
- Access status/HTTP status code;
- Amount of data;
- Websites from which the request originates;
- operating system.
This data is not stored together with your other personal data.
This data serves the purpose of user-friendly, functional and secure delivery of our website to you with functions and content as well as their optimization and statistical evaluation.
The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR, which also lies in the above purposes.
For security reasons, we store this data in server log files for a storage period of days. After this period has expired, they are automatically deleted, unless we need to retain them for evidence purposes in the event of attacks on the server infrastructure or other legal violations.
Contact via contact form / e-mail / fax / post

When you contact us by contact form, fax, post or e-mail, your data will be processed for the purpose of handling the contact request.
The legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR if you have given your consent. The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of a contact request or e-mail, letter or fax is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. The controller has a legitimate interest in the processing and storage of the data in order to be able to answer users' inquiries, to preserve evidence for liability reasons and, if necessary, to comply with its statutory retention obligations for business letters. If the contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR.
We may store your details and contact request in our customer relationship management system ("CRM system") or a comparable system.
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For the personal data from the input screen of the contact form and those sent by email, this is the case when the respective conversation with you has ended. The conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified. We store inquiries from users who have an account or contract with us for a period of two years after termination of the contract. In the case of statutory archiving obligations, the deletion takes place after their expiry: end of commercial law (6 years) and tax law (10 years) retention obligation.
You have the option to revoke your consent to the processing of personal data at any time in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. If you contact us by email, you can object to the storage of your personal data at any time.
Contacting us by telephone

When you contact us by telephone, your telephone number will be processed and temporarily stored or displayed in the RAM / cache of the telephone device / display in order to process the contact request and its handling. The storage takes place for liability and security reasons in order to be able to provide proof of the call and for economic reasons in order to enable a callback. In the event of unauthorized advertising calls, we block the telephone numbers.
The legal basis for the processing of the telephone number is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. If the contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
The device cache stores the calls for 30 days and successively overwrites or deletes old data; when the device is disposed of, all data is deleted and the memory may be destroyed. Blocked telephone numbers are checked annually to see whether they need to be blocked.
You can prevent the phone number from being displayed by calling with the phone number suppressed.
Presence in social media

We maintain profiles and fan pages on social media in order to communicate with the users connected and registered there and to provide information about our products, offers and services. The US providers are certified according to the so-called Privacy Shield and are therefore obliged to comply with European data protection. When you use and access our profile on the respective network, the respective data protection notices and terms of use of the respective network apply.
We process your data that you send us via these networks in order to communicate with you and to reply to your messages there.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data is our legitimate interest in communicating with users and our external presentation for the purpose of advertising in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. If you have given consent to the controller of the social network to process your personal data, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) and Art. 7 GDPR.

Social media plug-ins

We use social media plug-ins from social networks on our website. We use the so-called "two-click solution" Shariff from c't or heise.de. This means that no personal data is transmitted to the providers of the plug-ins when you visit our website. Next to the logo or brand of the social network you will find a slider with which you can activate the plug-in by clicking on it. After activation, the provider of the social network receives the information that you have accessed our website and your personal data is transmitted to the provider of the plug-in and stored there. These are so-called third party cookies. According to some providers such as Facebook and XING, your IP is anonymized immediately after collection.
The plug-in provider stores the data collected about the user as usage profiles. These are used for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to display needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about the user's activities on our website. The user has the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact the respective plug-in provider to exercise this right.
The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is our legitimate interest in improving and optimizing our website by increasing our visibility through social networks and the possibility of interaction with you and users among each other via social networks in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

We have no influence on the data collected and data processing procedures. We also have no knowledge of the scope of data collection, the purpose of processing or the storage periods. We also have no information on the deletion of the data collected by the plug-in provider.
With regard to the purpose and scope of data collection and processing, we refer you to the respective privacy policies of the social networks. There you will also find information on your rights and settings options for protecting your personal data.

As soon as you voluntarily activate the Facebook plug-in, a connection is established from your browser to the Facebook servers. Facebook receives the information, including your IP address, that you have accessed our website and transmits this information to Facebook servers in the USA, where this information is stored. If you are logged into your Facebook account, Facebook can assign this information to your account. When using the functions of the plug-in, e.g. clicking the "Like" button, this information is also transmitted from your browser to the Facebook servers in the USA and stored there and displayed in your Facebook profile and possibly with your friends.
