Data Privacy
The operators of these sites take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.
We point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g., when communicating by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible.

Storage Duration
Unless a more specific storage duration is specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for the data processing ceases. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., retention periods under tax or trade law); in the latter case, the data will be deleted after these reasons cease to apply.
General Legal Bases of Data Processing on This Website
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 Para. 2 lit. a GDPR if special data categories are processed according to Art. 9 Para. 1 GDPR. In the case of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also based on Art. 49 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

Notice Regarding Data Transfer to the USA and Other Third Countries
We use tools from companies based in the USA or other countries where data protection laws may not be as secure. When these tools are active, your personal data can be transferred to, and processed in, these third countries. We point out that there is no comparable level of data protection in these countries compared to the EU. For example, US companies are required to release personal data to security authorities without the possibility for you as an affected party to legally challenge this. It cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence services) may process, analyze, and permanently store your data located on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.
Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke an already issued consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and Against Direct Advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 PARA. 1 LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21 PARA. 1 GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR SUCH ADVERTISING PURPOSES; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING INSOFAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING PURPOSES (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21 PARA. 2 GDPR).
Right to Lodge Complaints with the Competent Supervisory Authorities
If there are violations of the GDPR, affected parties have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the member state of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the location of the alleged violation. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in the performance of a contract delivered to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
Information, Correction, and Deletion
You have the right, within the scope of the applicable legal provisions at any time to free information about your stored personal data, their origin, and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and potentially a right to correction or deletion of this data. For this purpose, and for any other questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. For this purpose, you can contact us at any time. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. During the period of verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your and our interests. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may - apart from being stored - only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of substantial public interest of the European Union or a member state.
SSL or TLS Encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transfer of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as site operators. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Cookies
Our internet pages use so-called "cookies." Cookies are small data packets and do not harm your end device. They are either stored temporarily for a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies) on your end device. Session cookies are deleted automatically after your visit ends. Persistent cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
Cookies may be first-party cookies or third-party cookies. Third-party cookies allow the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).
Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as some website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to analyze user behavior or for advertising purposes.
Cookies required for the electronic communication process, provision of certain functions desired by you (e.g., for the shopping cart function), or optimization of the website (e.g., cookies for measuring web audience) are stored based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically flawless and optimized provision of its services. If consent has been requested for the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies, processing is carried out solely based on this consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 Para. 1 TTDSG); consent is revocable at any time.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.
You can find which cookies and services are used on this website in this privacy policy.

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact data you entered there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR, if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if requested; consent is revocable at any time.
The data entered by you in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the reason for data storage ceases (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - especially retention periods - remain unaffected.
Inquiry by Email, Phone, or Fax
If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry) will be stored and processed for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR, if your request is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been requested; consent is revocable at any time.

5. Social Media
Social Media Elements with Shariff
Elements from social media (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, XING, LinkedIn, Tumblr) are used on this website.
You can usually recognize the social media elements by the respective social media logos. To ensure data protection on this website, we only use these elements together with the so-called "Shariff" solution. This application prevents the social media elements integrated on this website from immediately transmitting your personal data to the respective provider when you first enter the page.
Only when you activate the respective social media element by clicking the corresponding button is a direct connection to the provider's server established (consent). As soon as you activate the social media element, the respective provider will receive the information that you have visited this website with your IP address. If you are simultaneously logged into your respective social media account (e.g., Facebook), the provider can assign the visit to this website to your user account.
Activating the plugin constitutes consent within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 Para. 1 TTDSG. This consent can be revoked at any time for the future.
The service is used to obtain the legally required consents for the use of certain technologies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c GDPR.
Functions of the Instagram service are integrated on this website. These functions are offered by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
If the social media element is active, a direct connection is established between your end device and the Instagram server. Instagram receives information about your visit to this website.
If you are logged into your Instagram account, you can link the content of this website to your Instagram profile by clicking the Instagram button. This allows Instagram to associate your visit to this website with your user account. Please note that, as the site provider, we have no knowledge of the content or usage of the data transmitted to Instagram.
If consent has been obtained, the use of the service is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 TTDSG. The consent is revocable at any time. If consent has not been obtained, the use of the service is based on our legitimate interest in the broadest possible visibility in social media.
If personal data is collected on our website using the tool described here and forwarded to Facebook or Instagram, we and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, are jointly responsible for this data processing (Art. 26 GDPR). The joint responsibility is limited solely to the collection of data and their transmission to Facebook or Instagram. Processing after transmission by Facebook or Instagram is not part of the joint responsibility. The obligations jointly incumbent on us have been recorded in an agreement on joint processing. The wording of the agreement can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum. According to this agreement, we are responsible for providing privacy information when using the Facebook or Instagram tool and ensuring data protection-compliant implementation of the tool on our website. Facebook is responsible for the data security of Facebook or Instagram products. You can assert rights of affected parties (e.g., information requests) regarding the data processed by Facebook or Instagram directly with Facebook. If you assert the rights of affected persons with us, we are obliged to forward them to Facebook.
The data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/legal/EU_data_transfer_addendum, https://help.instagram.com/519522125107875, and https://de-de.facebook.com/help/566994660333381.

This website uses the analysis tool WP Statistics to statistically evaluate visitor access. The provider is Veronalabs, Tatari 64, 10134, Tallinn, Estonia (https://veronalabs.com).
With WP Statistics, we can analyze the use of our website. WP Statistics records log files (IP address, referrer, used browser, user origin, used search engine) and actions taken by the website visitors on the site (e.g., clicks and views).
The data recorded with WP Statistics is stored exclusively on our own server.
The use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in the anonymized analysis of user behavior to optimize both our web offering and our advertising. If consent has been obtained, processing is carried out solely based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 Para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) in the sense of TTDSG.

7. Newsletter
Newsletter Data
If you want to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we need an email address from you, as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified email address and agree to receive the newsletter. No other data is collected, or only on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively to send the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
The processing of data entered into the newsletter registration form is carried out solely based on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). The consent granted for the storage of the data, the email address, and their use for sending the newsletter can be revoked at any time, for example via the "unsubscribe" link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you store with us for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will remain with us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter, after which your data will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list. We reserve the right to delete or block email addresses from our newsletter distribution at discretion within the scope of our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
Data stored with us for other purposes remains unaffected.
Once you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your email address will be stored in a blacklist with us or the newsletter service provider if necessary, to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist is used only for this purpose and not combined with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in compliance with legal requirements for sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.
