Protection of the stored data
We use technical and organizational security measures in order to protect the personal data you have made available to us from manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons.

It cannot be ruled out that data transmitted by you without encryption can be viewed by third parties during transmission.

Sensitive data should therefore either not be transmitted at all or only via a secure connection (SSL) over the Internet.

Cookies

Technically necessary cookies (session cookies)
On our website, we use technical cookies to make the website more user-friendly. In order to use the full functi-onality of our website, it is therefore necessary for technical reasons to allow session cookies.

The purpose of using such cookies is to enable you to use the website in a simplified and more user-friendly way. Therefore, it is necessary that the browser can identify you even after a page change.

The data is not used to create a user profile of you. The legal basis for the use of technical cookies is § 25 (2) TTDSG. It is not possible to use the website without session cookies.

Cookies for evaluation (tracking cookies)
In addition to the use of technical cookies, tracking cookies are used on this website. Cookies are text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. However, these collect and store data only in pseudonymous form. They are not used to identify you personally and are not merged with data about the bearer of the pseudonym. We use this information to determine the attractiveness of our website and to continuously improve its content.
The legal basis for the use of tracking cookies is the consent given by you in accordance with § 25 (1) TTDSG. 
You have the right to revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. The lawfulness of the data processing until the revocation remains unaffected.
You can adjust the cookie settings at any time.

Individual information about the cookies and analysis services used as well as the purpose and legal basis of the data processing are further described in detail in the privacy policy.

Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Ltd. (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter referred to as “Google”), which uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. Cookies generally transfer the generated information about your use of this website to a Google server in the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA). However, since this website uses IP anonymization, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

In exceptional cases, the full IP address is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google uses this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services related to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

The collection in the context of this service will only take place after your express consent has been given. The legal basis for this is § 25 (1) TTDSG. You have the right to revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. The lawfulness of data processing up to revocation remains unaffected. 
The purpose of the survey is to evaluate the use of our website. Furthermore, by using Google Analytics, we can create reports about website activities and thus improve our website.In addition to us, Google is to be named as the recipient of the data.
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer needed for our recording purposes. You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics at any time, even after you have given your consent. 

The data transfer by Google to the USA is based on the EU standard contractual clauses, details of which can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/. For more information, please visit: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de

Google Fonts
Our website uses Google Fonts to integrate external fonts, a service provided by Google Ireland Ltd. (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter: "Google").
The integration of Google Fonts takes place locally on our own server, so that no direct connection is established with the Google servers when you visit our website.
Insofar as data processing is carried out, this is done for the purpose of uniform display of fonts and icons. The legal basis is therefore our legitimate interest in the uniform presentation in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 lit. f) GDPR.

Google Tag Manager
Our website uses Google Tag Manager, a service provided by Google Ireland Ltd. (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter referred to as “Google”). This allows us to manage web site tags via an interface. The Google Tag Manager triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If a deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, it remains valid for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.

This data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 UAbs. 1 bed. a) GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as consent within the meaning of the TTDSG relates to the setting of cookies or access to information on your device. You have the right to revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. The lawfulness of data processing up to revocation remains unaffected.

As part of the use of this Google service, personal data may be transferred to Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94 043, USA) in the USA. Further information about the collection and processing of your data by Google and your rights of data subjects can be found in Google’s privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de .

Social media
We would like to get in touch with you and other interested parties, customers and users. We use various social networks for this purpose. You can find out which individual social networks we use in the following section. 

As a rule, data is collected that is used for market research and advertising purposes. Such data includes the assignment of your visit to our website to your user account with the social network or the assignment by means of your stored cookies or your IP address. This is usually done by creating user profiles and the interests determined from them. This makes it possible to display tailored advertising, both on and off the social network. Therefore, as a rule, cookies may be set on you through the use of social networks. However, we would like to point out that we generally have no influence on what data is collected.

Through the social media presences, we would like to communicate information to you in the simplest and quickest way or give you the opportunity to share such. Therefore, unless you have consented to data processing on the respective platform, the legal basis is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (1) lit. f) GDPR. If you have consented on the respective platform, the legal basis for processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (1) lit. a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, if the consent within the meaning of the TTDSG relates to the setting of cookies or access to information on your terminal device. You have the right to revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. The lawfulness of the data processing until the revocation remains unaffected.

If you revoke your consent, request us to delete the data or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies, we will delete your data unless mandatory legal provisions prevent this. Cookies stored by you remain on your terminal device until you delete them.

The data processed as a result of your visit to our appearances on social media websites are classified as data processing initiated by us, and are thus subject to joint responsibility with the operator of the social media website pursuant to Art. 26 GDPR. Joint responsibility is limited to those processing operations where the purpose and means of the processing are decided jointly. If you wish to assert your data subject rights, you may do so both against us and against the operator of the social media website.
