2) Data Collection When Visiting Our Website
When you use our website purely for informational purposes, meaning if you do not register or otherwise transmit information to us, we only collect data that your browser transmits to our server (so-called “server log files”). When you access our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display the website to you:
- Our visited website

- Amount of data sent in bytes
- Source/reference from which you reached the page

The processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR based on our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data will not be passed on or used in any other way. However, we reserve the right to check the server log files subsequently if there are specific indications of unlawful use.
3) Cookies
To make visiting our website more attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted after the end of the browser session, i.e., after you close your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your device and allow us or our partner companies (third-party cookies) to recognize your browser on your next visit (persistent cookies). If cookies are set, they collect and process specific user information, such as browser and location data as well as IP address values, to an individual extent. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified duration, which may vary depending on the cookie.
If personal data is also processed by individual cookies we implement, the processing takes place either according to Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR for the execution of the contract or according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests in the best possible functionality of the website as well as a customer-friendly and effective design of the page visit.
We may work with advertising partners who help us make our internet offer more interesting for you. For this purpose, cookies from partner companies may also be stored on your hard drive when you visit our website (third-party cookies). If we work with the aforementioned advertising partners, you will be informed individually and separately within the following paragraphs about the use of such cookies and the scope of the information collected.

4) Contacting Us
When you contact us (e.g., via contact form or email), personal data is collected. The data collected in the case of using a contact form is visible from the respective contact form. This data is used exclusively to respond to your request or for contact purposes and the associated technical administration. The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. If your contact aims to conclude a contract, an additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR. Your data will be deleted once your request has been fully processed.

5) Tools and Other
Cookie-Consent Tool
This website uses a so-called “Cookie-Consent Tool” to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The “Cookie-Consent Tool” is displayed to users as an interactive user interface when the page is accessed, allowing consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications to be granted by ticking a box. By using the tool, all cookies/services that require consent will only be loaded if the respective user grants the corresponding consent by ticking the box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the user’s respective device if consent is given. The tool uses technically necessary cookies to store your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed in this context. If personal data is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning, or logging cookie settings in individual cases (e.g., IP address), this is done in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR based on our legitimate interest in a legally compliant, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thereby a legally compliant design of our online presence. Another legal basis for processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR. As the controller, we are legally obliged to make the use of non-essential cookies dependent on the user’s consent. For more information about the operator and the settings of the Cookie-Consent Tool, please refer directly to the relevant user interface on our website.

7) Duration of Storage of Personal Data
The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal basis, the processing purpose, and—where applicable—by the respective statutory retention period (e.g., commercial and tax retention periods).
When processing personal data based on explicit consent according to Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR, this data is stored until the data subject withdraws their consent.
If statutory retention periods apply to data processed within the framework of contractual or quasi-contractual obligations based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, this data will be routinely deleted after the retention periods expire, provided it is no longer required for contract fulfillment or initiation and/or if there is no legitimate interest on our part in continuing to store it.
When processing personal data for the purpose of direct marketing on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data is stored until the data subject exercises their right to object in accordance with Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.
Unless otherwise stated in the other information in this declaration on specific processing situations, stored personal data will be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
