Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site.

3. our offers on social media and integration of third-party services

We are also represented with content on social networks and other virtual platforms in order to communicate with customers, interested parties and users and to present our services to them. When accessing these networks and virtual platforms, their terms and conditions and, above all, their data protection principles apply. This must be observed in particular if you access our presence on social networks and other platforms by clicking on corresponding links on our website. Unless otherwise specified in our privacy policy, we process your personal data that you provide to us via social networks and virtual platforms as part of our communication, e.g. by sending us messages, to process your inquiries. The legal basis for this processing of the transmitted data is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b GDPR. In addition, we use offers from third-party providers within our website to optimize and analyze our Internet presence in order to integrate their content and services, e.g. videos or fonts, into our website (hereinafter uniformly referred to as “services”). This integration requires that the providers of these services process your IP address. Because this cannot be technically prevented, the processing of the IP address is therefore necessary for the use and realization of the services. We endeavor to use only those services whose respective providers process the IP address only for the direct provision of the services. Third-party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as “web beacons”) for statistical or marketing purposes. The “web beacons” can be used to analyze and evaluate various information, e.g. the visit to our website. In pseudonymized form, information can also be stored in cookies on your end device, whereby technical information about your browser and operating system used, linked websites, visit time and other information about the use of our website can be processed. The legal basis for this processing of the transmitted data is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b GDPR. The services that may be used are:

This right to erasure does not apply if the processing is necessary

  1. to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;

This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

The controller shall no longer process the personal data in the event of an objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If the controller processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising.

You have the right to be informed about these recipients by the controller.

8. right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to the controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data has been provided, where

  2. the processing is carried out using automated procedures.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible.

You do not have the right to data portability if the processing of the data is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

9. automated decision-making in individual cases including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

This does not apply if the decision

  1. is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller,
  2. is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or
  3. with your express consent.

In the cases referred to in (a.) and (b.) above, the data controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

10. right of appeal

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes this Regulation.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been submitted will inform you as the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.

VI Data security

We use technical and organizational measures to ensure that your personal data is protected as completely as possible. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can always have security gaps, so that no one can guarantee absolute protection. For this reason, you are free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by post, fax or telephone.
