II. Security of processing
- We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or total loss, destruction or against unauthorised access by third parties (e.g. TSL encryption for our website), taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing, as well as the existing risks of a data protection incident (including its probability and impact) for the data subject.

III. Transfer of personal data to third countries
The use of certain services may require us to transfer your personal data to a country outside the EEA (“third countries”). Such transfers to third countries are classified as risky and require, in particular, an independent basis for transfer in accordance with Art. 44 p. 1 GPDR. You will be informed separately in this privacy policy whether and to what extent transfers to a third country are carried out for a specific service used by us.
IV. No automated decision making (including profiling)

We may be subject to a specific legal or statutory obligation to provide the lawfully processed personal data to third parties, in particular public bodies (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c GDPR).
VI. Your rights as a data subject
You can assert your rights as a data subject with regard to your processed personal data at any time by contacting us using the contact details provided at the beginning of section I of this privacy policy. You have the following rights as a data subject:
- Right of access: Under Article 15 of the GDPR, you can request information about the data we process about you. In particular, you can request information about the purposes of processing, the category of data, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period of the data or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining the storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right to lodge a complaint, the origin of your data if this has not been collected by us, as well as the existence of automated decision-making including profiling and, if applicable, meaningful information about its details. You may also request meaningful information about the details of such processing.
- Right to rectification: Under Article 16 GDPR, you can without undue delay request the rectification of inaccurate or the completion of your data stored by us.
- Right to erasure: Under Article 17 of the GDPR, you can request the deletion of your data stored by us, unless the processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.
- Right to restriction of processing: Under Article 18 GDPR, you can request the restriction of the processing of your data if you dispute the accuracy of the data or if the processing is unlawful.
- Right to data portability: Under Article 20 of the GDPR, you may request to receive the data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or request the unrestricted transfer of this data to another controller.
- Right to object: Under Article 21 GDPR, you are entitled to object to processing if the processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. e or f GDPR. This is particularly the case if the processing is not necessary for the performance of a contract with you. Unless it is an objection to direct advertising, when exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will review the situation and either discontinue or adapt the data processing or show you our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.
- The right to withdraw consent: Under Article 7 para. 3 of the GDPR, you have the right to withdraw your consent – i.e. your voluntary, informed and unambiguous indication by means of a declaration or other unambiguous confirmatory act that you agree to the processing of the personal data concerned for one or more specific purposes – at any time if you have given such consent. This has the consequence that we may no longer continue the data processing based on this consent in the future. However, this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the withdrawal.
- Right to lodge a complaint: Under Article 77 of the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data in our company.

4. Web analysis via Google Analytics
4.1. Explanation and purpose
In order to measure the reach of our website and to design it to meet your needs, we create pseudonymous user profiles with the help of the “Google Analytics” service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). The purpose of our use of the tool is to enable the analysis of your user interactions on our website and to improve our offer through the statistics and reports obtained and to make it more interesting for you as a user.
You can find more information about the scope of services provided by Google Analytics at marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/terms/en/ . Google provides information on data processing when using Google Analytics at the following link: sup-port.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en/.
4.2. Personal data processed
We primarily record the interactions between you as a user and our website using cookies, device/browser data, IP addresses and website or app activities. Google Analytics also collects your IP addresses in order to ensure the security of the service and to provide us, as the website operator, with information about which country, region or location the respective user comes from (so-called “IP location determination”).
For your protection, we use the anonymisation function (“IP masking”), i.e. Google truncates the IP addresses within the EU/EEA by the last octet of the IP address. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and only truncated there (further information on the purpose and scope of data collection can be found, for example, at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de).
Google Analytics uses targeting cookies that are stored on your terminal device and can be read by us. In this way, we are able to recognise and count returning visitors as such and to find out how often our web pages have been called up by different users. Google sets the following cookies when you visit our website and consent to the use of the Google Analytics cookie:
| Cookie name | Purpose | Expire |
| _ga | This cookie helps us count how many people visit our website when you have already visited it | |
| _gid | This cookie helps us to count how many people visit our website when you have already visited it. | |
| _gat | This cookie helps us to manage the frequency with which requests were made to view a page. |
Furthermore, there is neither a contractual nor a legal obligation to provide the aforementioned personal data. You will not suffer any disadvantages in the use of our website or services if you do not provide this data.
4.3. Basis and withdrawal possibilities
The basis for the collection and further processing of your personal data is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR.
The legal basis for the placement and reading of the cookies used by Google Analytics is your consent in accordance with Section 25 para. 1 p.1 of the German Telecommunications Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG).
You can withdraw your consent at any time without this affecting the lawfulness of the processing until the withdrawal. You can use the following methods to do so:
- You can declare the withdrawal directly via our Consent Manager on the website.
- You can declare your withdrawal using our contact data (section I. of this privacy policy).
- You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this app.
- You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of our app (incl. your IP address) by Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).
4.4. Duration of processing
Your personal data will not be processed for longer than 14 months.
4.5. Recipient and transfer to a third country; basis
The information generated by the cookies about your use of our website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. General information on data processing, which according to Google should also apply to Google Analytics, can be found in Google’s privacy policy at www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
We have also concluded an order processing agreement with Google in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. Accordingly, Google will use all information strictly for the purpose of evaluating the use of our websites for us and compiling reports on website activity.
In the event that your personal data is transferred to Google, we have concluded corresponding standard data protection clauses in accordance with Art. 44 p. 1, 46 para. 2 lit. c GDPR. This is also our basis for a transfer.
VIII. Changes of the privacy policy
