Server Log Files

Visiting Our Website When you visit our website, the company we have commissioned to operate the website processes and stores, in addition to technical information about the device you are using (operating system, screen resolution, and other non-personal characteristics) and your browser (version, language settings), in particular the public IP address of the computer you are using to visit our website, along with the date and time of your visit. An IP address is a unique numerical address through which your device sends or retrieves data on the Internet. As a rule, neither we nor our service provider know who is behind an IP address, unless you provide us with information while using our website that enables us to identify you. Furthermore, a user may be identified if legal action is taken against them (e.g., in the event of attacks against our website) and we learn of their identity as part of the investigation. Therefore, you generally do not need to worry that we can link your IP address to you. Our service provider uses the processed data in a non-personal manner for statistical purposes so that we can determine which devices, with which settings, are used to visit our website, in order to optimize it for those users if necessary. These statistics do not contain any personal data. The legal basis for compiling these statistics is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

The IP address is used to enable you to access and use our website, as well as to detect and defend against attacks on our service provider or our website. Unfortunately, there are frequent attacks aimed at causing harm to website operators or their users (e.g., preventing access, stealing data, spreading malware (e.g., viruses), or other unlawful purposes). Such attacks would impair the proper functioning of the data center operated by the company we have engaged, the use of our website or its functionality, and the security of our website visitors. The IP address, along with the time of access, is processed to defend against such attacks. Through our service provider, we pursue the legitimate interest in ensuring the proper functioning of our website and in defending against unlawful attacks against us and our website visitors. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

The stored IP data is deleted (through anonymization) when it is no longer needed to detect or defend against an attack.

Disclosure of Data to Third Parties

As a general rule, we do not disclose the personal data provided to us to third parties - in particular, not for advertising purposes. However, we do collaborate with third parties to operate this website or to provide products and services. In doing so, such third parties may gain access to personal data. We carefully select our service providers—particularly with regard to data protection and data security - and take all measures required under data protection law to ensure lawful data processing.

Data Processing Outside the European Union

We do not process your personal data outside the EU ourselves. However, some of our service providers—whose plugins and tools we use—do process data outside the EU. This is disclosed in this Privacy Policy in the sections explaining the specific plugins and tools used. An adequate level of data protection is ensured through participation in the “Privacy Shield” program and the measures implemented by the service provider regarding data protection and data security.

If you send us a message using one of the contact options provided, we will use the data you provide to process your inquiry. The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in responding to your inquiry pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. If your inquiry is for the purpose of entering into a contract with us, the additional legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. The data will be deleted once your inquiry has been resolved. If we are legally required to retain the data for a longer period, it will be deleted upon expiration of the applicable retention period.

Google Analytics

As part of data processing on behalf of a client, we may use Google Analytics via Google Tag Manager, a service provided by Google LLC (“Google”), Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google, acting as a data processor, uses a so-called “cookie” for this purpose. This is a small text file stored on your computer by your browser. Through this cookie, Google receives information about which website you have visited, as well as, in particular, the following information: browser type and version, operating system used, technical information about the operating system and browser, and the public IP address of the computer you are using. We use Google Analytics in such a way that your IP address is used only in anonymized form. According to Google, this anonymization takes place within the European Union or a member state of the EEA. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the United States and truncated there. According to Google, the anonymization occurs before the IP address is first stored on a permanent data carrier. For further details, please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy, available at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de. Google Analytics allows us to compile usage statistics for our website, as well as demographic data about visitors and their user behavior, in a non-personally identifiable form. In addition, statistics are generated that help us better understand how our website is found, in order to improve our search engine optimization and our advertising efforts. Through this processing, we pursue the legitimate interest of being able to improve our website and our advertising efforts. The legal basis for the processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

You can find information on how to opt out of Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. Google is a member of the Privacy Shield Framework and has entered into a data processing agreement with us regarding Google Analytics.
