4. Data Collection on Our Website

Cookies

Some of the web pages on this site use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set, to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to block cookies in specific cases or generally, and to enable the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. If you disable cookies, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Cookies that are necessary for the electronic communication process or for providing certain functions you have requested (e.g., the shopping cart function) are stored pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. To the extent that other cookies (e.g., cookies used to analyze your browsing behavior) are stored, these are addressed separately in this Privacy Policy.

Server Log Files

The provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These include:

  • Browser Type and Browser Version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the connecting computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not combined with data from other sources.

The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the purpose of fulfilling a contract or taking steps prior to entering into a contract.

Contact Form

If you submit inquiries to us via the contact form, we will store the information you provide in the inquiry form—including the contact information you provide there—for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this information without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based solely on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time. To do so, simply send us an informal email. The lawfulness of the data processing operations carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request that we delete it, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions—in particular retention periods—remain unaffected.

Registration on this website

You can register on our website to access additional features on the site. We use the information you provide for this purpose solely to enable you to use the specific offering or service for which you have registered. The required information requested during registration must be provided in full. Otherwise, we will reject the registration.

For important changes—such as changes to the scope of our offerings or technically necessary changes—we will use the email address you provided during registration to notify you.

The processing of the data you provide during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, simply send us an informal email. The lawfulness of any data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by the withdrawal of consent.

We will store the data collected during registration for as long as you remain registered on our website; it will then be deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Processing of Data (Customer and Contract Data)

We collect, process, and use personal data only to the extent necessary for the establishment, substance, or modification of the legal relationship (master data). This is done on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process, and use personal data regarding the use of our website (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable the user to access the service or to bill the user for it.

The customer data collected will be deleted upon completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Data Transmission Upon Conclusion of a Contract for Services and Digital Content

We disclose personal data to third parties only when necessary for the fulfillment of the contract, such as to the financial institution responsible for processing payments.

Your data will not be disclosed to any other parties, or will only be disclosed if you have expressly consented to such disclosure. Your data will not be disclosed to third parties without your express consent, for example for advertising purposes.

The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the purpose of fulfilling a contract or taking steps prior to entering into a contract.

5. Social Media

Share Content Using Plugins (Facebook, Google+1, Twitter, etc.)

The content on our website can be shared on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google+ in compliance with data protection regulations. This site uses the eRecht24 Safe Sharing Tool for this purpose. This tool establishes a direct connection between the networks and users only when the user actively clicks on one of these buttons.

This tool does not automatically transfer user data to the operators of these platforms. If the user is logged in to one of these social networks, an information window will appear when using the social buttons for Facebook, Google+1, Twitter, and others, allowing the user to confirm the text before submitting it.

Our users can share the content of this site on social networks in compliance with privacy regulations, without the network operators creating complete browsing profiles.

Facebook Plugins (Like & Share Buttons)

Our website incorporates plugins from the social network Facebook, provided by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA. You can recognize the Facebook plugins by the Facebook logo or the “Like” button on our site. You can find an overview of the Facebook plugins here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

When you visit our pages, the plugin establishes a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook server. This informs Facebook that you have visited our site using your IP address. If you click the Facebook “Like” button while logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages to your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate your visit to our pages with your user account. Please note that, as the provider of this website, we have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Facebook. For more information, please see Facebook’s Privacy Policy at: https://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php.

If you do not want Facebook to be able to associate your visit to our pages with your Facebook account, please log out of your Facebook account.

XING Plugin

Our website uses features provided by the XING network. The provider is XING AG, Dammtorstraße 29-32, 20354 Hamburg, Germany.

Every time you visit one of our pages that includes XING features, a connection is established with XING’s servers. To the best of our knowledge, no personal data is stored during this process. In particular, IP addresses are not stored, nor is user behavior analyzed.

For more information on data protection and the XING Share button, please see XING’s Privacy Policy at: https://www.xing.com/app/share?op=data_protection.

6. Analytics Tools and Advertising

Google reCAPTCHA

We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on our websites. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).

reCAPTCHA is used to verify whether data entry on our websites (e.g., in a contact form) is performed by a human or by an automated program. To do this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the website visitor’s behavior based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the site. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various pieces of information (e.g., IP address, the length of time the visitor spends on the website, or the user’s mouse movements). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.

reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not notified that an analysis is taking place.

Data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offerings from abusive automated surveillance and from spam.

For more information about Google reCAPTCHA and Google’s Privacy Policy, please visit the following links: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/android.html.

7. Newsletter

Newsletter Information

If you would like to subscribe to the newsletter offered on the website, we need your email address as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you consent to receiving the newsletter. No other data is collected, or is collected only on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively to send you the requested information and do not share it with third parties.

The processing of the data entered in the newsletter sign-up form is based solely on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may revoke your consent to the storage of your data and email address, as well as to their use for sending the newsletter, at any time—for example, by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The lawfulness of any data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by this revocation.

The data you have provided to us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted after you unsubscribe. Data that we have stored for other purposes (e.g., email addresses for the members’ area) remains unaffected by this.

8. Plugins and Tools

YouTube

Our website uses plugins from YouTube, a site operated by Google. The site is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When you visit one of our pages that includes a YouTube plugin, a connection is established with YouTube’s servers. In the process, the YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited.

If you are logged into your YouTube account, you are allowing YouTube to associate your browsing activity directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

This site uses so-called web fonts, provided by Google, to ensure consistent font display. When you visit a page, your browser loads the necessary web fonts into its cache to display text and fonts correctly.

To this end, the browser you are using must establish a connection to Google’s servers. As a result, Google becomes aware that our website has been accessed via your IP address. We use Google Web Fonts to ensure a consistent and visually appealing presentation of our online content. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font from your computer will be used.
