The legal bases of our data processing are the following according to Art. 13 DSGVO:
Legitimate interests are in particular our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, the enforcement of our own legal claims and compliance with other legal provisions.
For this purpose, we use service companies that are separately committed to confidentiality and data protection as part of the service provision. Data is only passed on to public authorities in the event of overriding legal requirements.
Consents given can be revoked by you with effect for the future in accordance with Art. 7 DSGVO.
This website uses “Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure” (https). The connection between your browser and our server is encrypted.
General: Presentation of the company, provision of services and/or sale of products and communication via the Internet. The purpose of the data processing on this website is the information about products and services of our company with the possibility of the users to contact the contact persons in the house in a targeted manner.
Insofar as you have provided us with personal data, we will use it to these to answer your inquiries, to advise you and process contracts concluded with you and for technical administration. Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties or otherwise transferred if this is necessary for the purpose of contract processing or for billing purposes or if you have given your prior consent. You have the right to revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future (see right of revocation).
The legal basis for the collection, processing and forwarding of the data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) DSGVO in the context of the execution of the contract.
The deletion of this data takes place after the expiry of the applicable statutory retention obligations. If we are not subject to any statutory retention obligations, the data will be deleted when the purpose ceases to apply.
You have the right to information and the right to object to your data stored by us at any time. You can find further information under “Data subject rights” and “Right of revocation”.
Purpose of processing
When you visit our site, various server statistics are automatically stored, which your browser transmits to our provider’s server: Among other things, the IP address of your device, date and time of access, name and URL of accessed files, website from which access is made or from which you were directed to our site (referrer URL), browser used and, if applicable, the operating system of your device and the name of your provider are logged.
The aforementioned data is processed by us for the purpose of smooth connection establishment and system security. A combination of this data with other data sources is not made. The IP address is anonymized. The accruing connection data is automatically deleted; usually after a maximum of seven days. If the website is misused, log data whose further storage is necessary for evidentiary purposes will be retained until the incident has been clarified.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO and § 25 para. 2 TTDSG (here, however, only data such as browser or header information that is transmitted inevitably or due to (browser) settings of the terminal device when calling up our website). This is not to be considered as “accessing information that is already stored in the terminal device”. Our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) DSGVO arises from the fact that we want to ensure secure operation of the website and detect any attacks.
Purpose of processing

Purpose of processing
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an e-mail address from you. The registration for the newsletter takes place in the double opt-in procedure.

Your registration for the newsletter is logged (storage of the registration and confirmation time and the IP address). With the help of the logging, the registration process can be proven in accordance with legal requirements.
You can revoke your consent to the storage of the e-mail address (and if fields are offered: optional first name and last name, for the purpose of personal address) and its use for sending the newsletter with associated performance measurement at any time. A link for cancellation is provided at the end of each newsletter. In order to be able to prove a previously given consent for an unsubscribed e-mail address, we may store it for up to 3 years before deleting it.
Legal basis Newsletter dispatch and the associated performance measurement is carried out on the basis of registration by the recipient(s) concerned in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, Art. 7 DSGVO and together with § 7 para. 2 No. 3 UWG or on the basis of legal permission in accordance with § 7 para. 3 UWG.
As well as Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO: Our legitimate interest of measuring success results from recognizing reading habits of our users based on the openings of the newsletters, opening times and the clicked links in order to be able to create and send them interest-based and useful content.
The legal basis for logging is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest arises from the fact that we use a secure and user-friendly newsletter system that is useful for sending and protects the personal data of newsletter subscribers. Furthermore, it allows us to prove consent.
