We take data protection seriously

The protection of your privacy when processing personal data is an important concern for us. When you visit our website, our web servers store by default the IP of your Internet service provider, the website from which you visit us, the web pages you visit on our site, and the date and duration of the visit. This information is mandatory for the technical transmission of the web pages and secure server operation. A personalized evaluation of this data does not take place.

If you send us data via contact form, this data will be stored on our servers in the course of data backup. Your data will only be used by us to process your request. Your data will be treated strictly confidential. The data will not be passed on to third parties.

Personal data

Personal data is data about your person. These include your name, address and email address. You also do not have to disclose any personal data in order to visit our website. In some cases we need your name and address and other information to provide you with the requested service.

The same applies if we supply you with information material on request or if we answer your inquiries. In these cases, we will always point this out to you. In addition, we only store the data that you have transmitted to us automatically or voluntarily.

When you use one of our services, we generally collect only the information necessary to provide you with our service. We may ask you for additional information, but this is voluntary. Whenever we process personal data, we do so to provide you with our service or to pursue our commercial objectives.

Automatically stored non-personal data

When you visit our website, we store certain information for administrative and technical reasons. These are: Type and version of the browser used, date and time of access, and the IP address.

This data is anonymized and used only for statistical purposes or to improve our Internet and online services.

This anonymized data is stored – separately from personal data – on secure systems and cannot be assigned to individual persons. This means that your personal data remains protected at all times.

Cookies

When you visit our website, we may store information on your computer in the form of cookies. Cookies are small files that are transferred from an Internet server to your browser and stored on its hard drive. Only the Internet protocol address is stored – no personal data. This information, which is stored in the cookies, allows us to automatically recognize you the next time you visit our website, making it easier for you to use.

Of course, you can also visit our website without accepting cookies. If you do not want your computer to be recognized on your next visit, you can also refuse the use of cookies by changing the settings in your browser to “refuse cookies”. The respective procedure can be found in the operating instructions of your respective browser. However, if you refuse the use of cookies, you may experience limitations in the use of some areas of our website.

Google Analytics with anonymization function

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter “Google”, on our website. Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site.

The information generated by these cookies, for example time, place and frequency of your website visit including your IP address, is transmitted to Google in the USA and stored there.

We use Google Analytics with the addition “_gat._anonymizeIp” on our website. In this case, your IP address will already be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area and thus anonymized.

Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of our website, compiling reports on website activity for us and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.

Google will, according to its own information, in no case associate your IP address with other data from Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

Furthermore, Google offers a deactivation add-on for the most common browsers, which gives you more control over what data is collected by Google about the websites you visit. The add-on tells the JavaScript (ga.js) of Google Analytics that no website visit information should be sent to Google Analytics. However, the Google Analytics browser deactivation add-on does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analytics services we may use. For more information on how to install the browser add-on, click the link below:https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

If you visit our site via a mobile device (smartphone or tablet), you must delete instead, the opt-out cookie is also deleted, so you must click the link again.

If you have consented to have your web and app browsing history linked to your Google Account by Google and to have information from your Google Account used to personalize ads, Google will use your data together with Google Analytics data to create targeting lists for cross-device remarketing. For this purpose, Google Analytics first collects your Google-authenticated ID on our website, which is linked to your Google account (i.e. personal data). Google Analytics will then temporarily link your ID to your Google Analytics data in order to optimize our targeting.

If you do not agree to this, you can turn this off by making the appropriate settings in the “My Account” section of your Google Account.

Google Maps

This website uses Google Maps to display maps and to create directions.

Google Maps is operated by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

YouTube in enhanced privacy mode

We use the provider YouTube to embed videos. The videos were embedded in extended data protection mode. However, like most websites, YouTube uses cookies to collect information about visitors to their website. YouTube uses this to collect video statistics, prevent fraud, and improve user experience, among other things. Also, this leads to a connection establishment with the Google DoubleClick Network. When you start the video, this could trigger further data processing operations. We have no influence on that.

Newsletter

For sending the newsletter, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure, i.e. we will only send you a newsletter by e-mail if you have previously expressly confirmed that you want us to activate the newsletter service. We will then send you a notification email and ask you to confirm that you would like to receive our newsletter by clicking on a link contained in that email. When you subscribe to our newsletter, we store your IP address and the date of subscription. This storage serves solely as evidence in the event that a third party misuses your e-mail address to register you for the newsletter without your knowledge or authorization.

If you do not wish to receive any more newsletters from us at a later date, you can object to this at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the prime rates. A notification in text form to us (e.g. e-mail, fax, letter) is sufficient for this purpose. Of course, you will also find an unsubscribe link in every newsletter.

Publication of job advertisements / online job applications / unsolicited applications

Your application data will be collected and processed electronically by us for the purpose of handling the application process. If your application is followed by the conclusion of an employment contract, your transmitted data may be stored by us in your personnel file for the purpose of the usual organizational and administrative process in compliance with the relevant legal provisions.

If your job application is rejected, the data you submitted will be deleted automatically two months after you are notified of the rejection. This does not apply if longer storage is necessary due to legal requirements (for example, the duty of proof under the General Equal Treatment Act) or if you have expressly consented to longer storage in our database of interested parties.

If we process your data that is incomplete or incorrect, you can request that we correct or complete it at any time.

You may request that we delete your data if we process it unlawfully or if the processing disproportionately interferes with your legitimate interests in protection. Please note that there may be reasons that prevent immediate deletion, e.g. in the case of legally regulated retention obligations.

 

Irrespective of the exercise of your right to deletion, we will delete your data immediately and completely, insofar as there is no legal or statutory obligation to retain data in this respect.

 

Right to restriction of processing:

 

You may request us to restrict the processing of your data if:

 

  • you dispute the accuracy of the data, for a period of time that allows us to verify the accuracy of the data.
  • the processing of the data is unlawful, but you refuse erasure and request restriction of data use instead,

  • we process this data on the basis of a revocable consent given by you or for the performance of a contract between us, and
  • this processing is carried out with the aid of automated procedures.

Right of objection:
 
If we process your data for legitimate interest, you may object to this data processing at any time; this would also apply to profiling based on these provisions. We will then no longer process your data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims. You may object to the processing of your data for the purpose of direct marketing at any time without giving reasons.
 
Right of complaint:
 
If you are of the opinion that we violate German or European data protection law when processing your data, please contact us to clarify any questions.

8. Am I obliged to provide data?

 

The processing of your data is necessary for the conclusion or fulfillment of your contract entered into with us. If you do not provide us with this data, we will usually have to refuse to conclude the contract or will no longer be able to perform an existing contract and consequently have to terminate it. However, you are not obliged to give your consent to data processing with regard to data that is not relevant for the fulfillment of the contract or that is not required by law.
