Revocation of your consent to data processing

Some data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for revocation. The lawfulness of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

As a data subject, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in the event of a data protection breach. The competent supervisory authority for data protection matters is the State Data Protection Commissioner of the federal state in which our company is based. The following link provides a list of data protection commissioners and their contact details https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html:

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, either for yourself or to have it transferred to a third party. The data will be provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.

Right to information, rectification, blocking, erasure

You have the right, at any time and within the framework of applicable legal provisions, to obtain information free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin, the recipients of the data, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if applicable, a right to rectification, blocking, or erasure of this data. For this purpose, and for any further questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time using the contact details provided in the legal notice.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information that you send to us as the website operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This means that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the "https://" your browser's address bar and the padlock icon in the browser bar.

Server log files

The website provider automatically collects and stores information in server log files that your browser automatically transmits to us. This includes:

• Page visited on our domain
• Date and time of the server request
• Browser type and browser version
• Operating system used
• Referrer URL
• Hostname of the accessing computer
• IP address

This data is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure its stability and security. (The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) This data is not combined with other data sources.

Contact form

Data submitted via the contact form, including your contact details, will be stored in order to process your request and to be available for follow-up questions. This data will not be shared without your consent.

Depending on the type of inquiry, the legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR for inquiries you submit yourself as part of a pre-contractual measure, or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR if your inquiry is of a different nature. If personal data is requested that we do not require for the performance of a contract or to protect legitimate interests, the transfer to us is based on your consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. This consent remains unaffected by any withdrawal of consent.

Data submitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
