Collection of general information when you visit our website
the nature and purpose of the processing:
When you access our website, i.e. when you do not register or otherwise submit information, information of a general nature is automatically collected. This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your internet service provider, your IP address and similar.
They are processed in particular for the following purposes:
- Ensuring that the website can be connected without problems,
- Ensuring a smooth use of our website,
- evaluation of system safety and stability, and
- to optimise our website.
We do not use your data to draw conclusions about your person. Information of this kind is statistically evaluated by us, anonymously if necessary, in order to optimise our Internet presence and the technology behind it.
Legal basis and legitimate interest:
Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 letter f DSGVO on the basis of our justified interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.
receiver:
Recipients of the data may be technical service providers who act as contract processors for the operation and maintenance of our website.
Third Country Transfer:
The collected data may be transferred to the following third countries:
no
The following data protection safeguards are in place:
storage period:
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose of collection. This is generally the case for the data used to provide the website, when the respective session is ended.
If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after 14 days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are made anonymous, so that an allocation of the calling client is no longer possible.
Provision prescribed or necessary:
The provision of the above-mentioned personal data is not required by law or contract. Without the IP address, however, the service and functionality of our website cannot be guaranteed. In addition, individual services may not be available or may be restricted. For this reason an objection is excluded.
Contact form
the nature and purpose of the processing:
The data you enter will be stored for the purpose of individual communication with you. For this purpose, it is necessary to provide a valid e-mail address and your name. This serves to assign the enquiry and to subsequently answer it. The specification of further data is optional.
Legal basis:
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is based on a legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO).
By providing the contact form, we would like to make it easy for you to contact us. The information you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing your enquiry and for possible follow-up questions.
If you contact us to request an offer, the data entered in the contact form will be processed for the purpose of implementing pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO).
Recipient:
Recipients of the data may be contract processors.
Transfer to third countries:
The data collected may be transferred to the following third countries:
no
The following data protection safeguards are in place:
storage period:
Data will be deleted at the latest 6 months after processing the request.
If a contractual relationship is established, we are subject to the statutory retention periods according to the German Commercial Code (HGB) and delete your data after these periods have expired.
Provision prescribed or necessary:
The provision of your personal data is voluntary. However, we can only process your enquiry if you provide us with your name, your e-mail address and the reason for the enquiry.
