SSL or TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address bar of your browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser's address bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Encrypted Payment Transactions on This Website
If, after concluding a contract involving payment, you are required to provide us with your payment details (e.g. account number for direct debit authorization), this data is required for payment processing. Payment transactions using common payment methods (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are carried out exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address bar of your browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser's address bar. When encrypted communication is used, payment data transmitted to us cannot be read by third parties.

3. Data Collection on Our Website
Processing of Data (Customer and Contract Data)
We collect, process, and use personal data only insofar as this is necessary to establish, define, or modify the legal relationship (master data). This is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process, and use personal data relating to the use of our website (usage data) only insofar as this is necessary to enable the user to use the service or for billing purposes.
The customer data collected will be deleted after completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies in some areas. 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 after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser when you next visit our website. You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set, allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or generally, and automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website. Cookies that are required to carry out electronic communications or to provide certain functions requested by you (e.g. shopping cart functionality) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Where 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 website provider automatically collects and stores information in 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 accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
This data is not combined with data from other sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Contact Form
If you submit inquiries to us via the contact form, the information you provide in the inquiry form, including the contact details entered there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this data without your consent. The processing of data entered into the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to withdrawal remains unaffected. The data entered into the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – particularly retention periods – remain unaffected.
Registration on This Website
You may register on our website in order to use additional functions. We use the data entered during registration only for the purpose of using the respective offer or service for which you have registered. The mandatory 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 services or technically necessary modifications, we use the e-mail address provided during registration to inform you. The processing of data entered during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient. The lawfulness of data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the withdrawal. The data collected during registration will be stored by us for as long as you remain registered on our website and will subsequently be deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
4. Analytics Tools and Advertising
Google Analytics
This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies.” These are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google Analytics cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.
IP Anonymization
We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. As a result, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services relating to website and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be combined with other Google data.
Browser Plugin
You can prevent cookies from being stored by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting and processing the data generated by the cookie relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
Objection to Data Collection
You can prevent your data from being collected by Google Analytics by clicking the relevant opt-out link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent your data from being collected during future visits to this website: Disable Google Analytics.
More information about how Google Analytics handles user data can be found in Google's Privacy Policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.
Data Processing Agreement
We have entered into a data processing agreement with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.
5. Plugins and Tools
YouTube
Our website uses plugins from YouTube, a service operated by Google. The operator is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit one of our pages containing a YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account. YouTube is used in the interest of providing an appealing presentation of our online content. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Google Web Fonts
This website uses web fonts provided by Google to ensure the consistent display of fonts. When you access a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display text and fonts correctly. For this purpose, the browser you use must establish a connection to Google's servers. As a result, Google becomes aware that our website has been accessed via your IP address. Google Web Fonts are used in the interest of providing a consistent and visually appealing presentation of our online content. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font installed on your computer will be used.
