Cookies Policy

As of: 22.05.2024

The Internet pages of us use cookies, local storage and session storage. This is to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure. Local storage and session storage is a technology used by your browser to store data on your computer or mobile device. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser. You can prevent the use of cookies, local storage and session storage by setting them in your browser.

Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character string through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the Data Subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Using cookies, we can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize our website users. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. The website user that uses cookies, e.g. does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed, because this is taken over by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop. The online store remembers the articles that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The Data Subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. If the Data Subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.

The website of us collects a series of general data and information when a Data Subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information are stored in the server log files. Collected may be (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, we do not draw any conclusions about the Data Subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore, we analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the Personal Data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all Personal Data provided by a Data Subject.

The Data Subject has the possibility to register on the website of the Data Controller with the indication of Personal Data. Which Personal Data are transmitted to the Data Controller is determined by the respective input mask used for the registration. The Personal Data entered by the Data Subject are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the Data Controller, and for his own purposes. The Data Controller may request transfer to one or more Data Processors (e.g. a parcel service) that also uses Personal Data for an internal purpose which is attributable to the Data Controller.

By registering on the website of the Data Controller, the IP address—assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the Data Subject—date, and time of the registration are also stored. The storage of this data takes place against the background that this is the only way to prevent the misuse of our services, and, if necessary, to make it possible to investigate committed offenses. Insofar, the storage of this data is necessary to secure the Data Controller. This data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a statutory obligation to pass on the data, or if the transfer serves the aim of criminal prosecution.

The registration of the Data Subject, with the voluntary indication of Personal Data, is intended to enable the Data Controller to offer the Data Subject contents or services that may only be offered to registered users due to the nature of the matter in question. Registered persons are free to change the Personal Data specified during the registration at any time, or to have them completely deleted from the data stock of the Data Controller.

The Data Controller shall, at any time, provide information upon request to each Data Subject as to what Personal Data are stored about the Data Subject. In addition, the data Controller shall correct or erase Personal Data at the request or indication of the Data Subject, insofar as there are no statutory storage obligations. The entirety of the Data Controller’s employees is available to the Data Subject in this respect as contact persons.

The website contains information that enables a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a Data Subject contacts the Data Controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the Personal Data transmitted by the Data Subject are automatically stored. Such Personal Data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a Data Subject to the data Controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the Data Subject. There is no transfer of this Personal Data to third parties.

We offer users the possibility to leave individual comments on individual blog contributions on a blog, which is on the website of the Data Controller. A blog is a web-based, publicly accessible portal, through which one or more people called bloggers or web-bloggers may post articles or write down thoughts in so-called blogposts. Blogposts may usually be commented by third parties.

If a Data Subject leaves a comment on the blog published on this website, the comments made by the Data Subject are also stored and published, as well as information on the date of the commentary and on the user’s (pseudonym) chosen by the Data Subject. In addition, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) to the Data Subject is also logged. This storage of the IP address takes place for security reasons, and in case the Data Subject violates the rights of third parties or posts illegal content through a given comment. The storage of these Personal Data is, therefore, in the own interest of the data Controller, so that he can exculpate in the event of an infringement. This collected Personal Data will not be passed to third parties, unless such a transfer is required by law or serves the aim of the defense of the data Controller.

For comments, the Gravatar service from Automatic is used. Gravatar matches your email address and maps – if you are registered – your avatar image next to the comment. If you are not registered, no image will be displayed. It should be noted that all registered WordPress users are automatically registered with Gravatar. Details of Gravatar: https://en.gravatar.com.

The data Controller shall process and store the Personal Data of the Data Subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the Data Controller is subject to.

If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the Personal Data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance with legal requirements.

A) Right Of Confirmation

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the Data Controller the confirmation as to whether Personal Data concerning him or her are being processed. If a Data Subject wishes to avail himself of this right of confirmation, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the Data Controller.

B) Right Of Access

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the Data Controller free information about his or her Personal Data stored at any time and a copy of this information. Furthermore, the European directives and regulations grant the Data Subject access to the following information:

• the purposes of the processing.
• the categories of Personal Data concerned.
• the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the Personal Data have been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organisations.
• where possible, the envisaged period for which the Personal Data will be stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;
• the existence of the right to request from the Data Controller rectification or erasure of Personal Data, or restriction of processing of Personal Data concerning the Data Subject, or to object to such processing;
• the existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
• where the Personal Data are not collected from the Data Subject, any available information as to their source;
• the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to in Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing for the Data Subject.

Furthermore, the Data Subject shall have a right to obtain information as to whether Personal Data are transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. Where this is the case, the Data Subject shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.

If a Data Subject wishes to avail himself of this right of access, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the Data Controller.

C) Right To Rectification

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the Data Controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate Personal Data concerning him or her. Considering the purposes of the processing, the Data Subject shall have the right to have incomplete Personal Data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.

If a Data Subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the Data Controller.

D) Right To Erasure (Right To Be Forgotten)

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the Data Controller the erasure of Personal Data concerning him or her without undue delay, and the Data Controller shall have the obligation to erase Personal Data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies, if the processing is not necessary:

• The Personal Data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
• The Data Subject withdraws consent to which the processing is based according to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for the processing.
• The Data Subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the Data Subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
• The Personal Data have been unlawfully processed.
• The Personal Data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation in Union or Member State law to which the Data Controller is subject.
• The Personal Data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Article 8(1) of the GDPR.

If one of the reasons applies, and a Data Subject wishes to request the erasure of Personal Data stored by us, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the Data Controller. An employee us shall promptly ensure that the erasure request is complied with immediately.

Where the Data Controller has made Personal Data public and is obliged pursuant to Article 17(1) to erase the Personal Data, the Data Controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform other Data Controllers processing the Personal Data that the Data Subject has requested erasure by such Data Controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those Personal Data, as far as processing is not required. An employees of us will arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.

E) Right Of Restriction of Processing

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the Data Controller restriction of processing where one of the following applies:

• The accuracy of the Personal Data is contested by the Data Subject, for a period enabling the Data Controller to verify the accuracy of the Personal Data.
• The processing is unlawful, and the Data Subject opposes the erasure of the Personal Data and requests instead the restriction of their use instead.
• The Data Controller no longer needs the Personal Data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the Data Subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
• The Data Subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the Data Controller override those of the Data Subject.

If one of the conditions is met, and a Data Subject wishes to request the restriction of the processing of Personal Data stored by us, he or she may at any time contact any employee of the Data Controller. The employee of us will arrange the restriction of the processing.

F) Right To Data Portability

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator, to receive the Personal Data concerning him or her, which was provided to a Data Controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. He or she shall have the right to transmit those data to another Data Controller without hindrance from the Data Controller to which the Personal Data have been provided, as long as the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, as long as the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Data Controller.

Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the Data Subject shall have the right to have Personal Data transmitted directly from one Data Controller to another, where technically feasible and when doing so does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

To assert the right to data portability, the Data Subject may at any time contact any employee of us.

G) Right To Object

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to object, on grounds relating to his or her situation, at any time, to processing of Personal Data concerning him or her, which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

We shall no longer process the Personal Data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the Data Subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

If we process Personal Data for direct marketing purposes, the Data Subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of Personal Data concerning him or her for such marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the Data Subject objects to us to the processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process the Personal Data for these purposes.
In addition, the Data Subject has the right, on grounds relating to his or her situation, to object to processing of Personal Data concerning him or her by us for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

To exercise the right to object, the Data Subject may contact any employee of us. In addition, the Data Subject is free in the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to use his or her right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

H) Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her, or similarly significantly affects him or her, as long as the decision (1) is not is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the Data Subject and a data Controller, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State law to which the Data Controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the Data Subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not based on the Data Subject’s explicit consent.

If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the Data Subject and a Data Controller, or (2) it is based on the Data Subject’s explicit consent, we shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the Data Subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the Data Controller, to express his or her point of view and contest the decision.

If the Data Subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated individual decision-making, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of us.

I) Right To Withdraw Data Protection Consent

Each Data Subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to withdraw his or her consent to processing of his or her Personal Data at any time.

If the Data Subject wishes to exercise the right to withdraw the consent, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of us.

We rely on KDPA and GDPR for our legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of Personal Data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the Data Subject is party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of Personal Data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on GDPR.
In rare cases, the processing of Personal Data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the Data Subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.

Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1)lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the Data Subject which require protection of Personal Data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the Data Subject is a client of the Data Controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of Personal Data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, if it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; requirement necessary to enter into a contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data
We clarify that the provision of Personal Data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner).

Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the Data Subject provides us with Personal Data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The Data Subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with Personal Data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the Personal Data would have the consequence that the contract with the Data Subject could not be concluded.

Before Personal Data is provided by the Data Subject, the Data Subject must contact any employee. The employee clarifies to the Data Subject whether the provision of the Personal Data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the Personal Data and the consequences of non-provision of the Personal Data.

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

On this website, the Data Controller has integrated components of the enterprise Facebook. Facebook is a social network.

A social network is a place for social meetings on the Internet, an online community, which usually allows users to communicate with each other and interact in a virtual space. A social network may serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences or enable the Internet community to provide personal or business-related information. Facebook allows social network users to include the creation of private profiles, upload photos, and network through friend requests.

The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, United States. If a person lives outside of the United States or Canada, the Data Controller is the Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet website, which is operated by the Data Controller and into which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-ins) was integrated, the web browser on the information technology system of the Data Subject is automatically prompted to download display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook through the Facebook component. An overview of all the Facebook Plug-ins may be accessed under https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/. While this technical procedure, Facebook is made aware of what specific sub-site of our website was visited by the Data Subject.

If the Data Subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook, Facebook detects with every call-up to our website by the Data Subject—and for the entire duration of their stay on our Internet site—which specific sub-site of our Internet page was visited by the Data Subject. This information is collected through the Facebook component and associated with the respective Facebook account of the Data Subject. If the Data Subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated into our website, e.g. the “Like” button, or if the Data Subject submits a comment, then Facebook matches this information with the personal Facebook user account of the Data Subject and stores the Personal Data.

Facebook always receives, through the Facebook component, information about a visit to our website by the Data Subject, whenever the Data Subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook during the time of the call-up to our website. This occurs regardless of whether the Data Subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If such a transmission of information to Facebook is not desirable for the Data Subject, then he or she may prevent this by logging off from their Facebook account before a call-up to our website is made.

The data protection guideline published by Facebook, which is available at https://facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information about the collection, processing and use of Personal Data by Facebook. In addition, it is explained there what setting options Facebook offers to protect the privacy of the Data Subject. In addition, different configuration options are made available to allow the elimination of data transmission to Facebook. These applications may be used by the Data Subject to eliminate a data transmission to Facebook.

On this website, the Data Controller has integrated components of X. X is a multilingual, publicly accessible microblogging service on which users may publish and spread so-called ‘tweets,’ e.g. short messages, which are limited to 280 characters. These short messages are available for everyone, including those who are not logged on to X. The tweets are also displayed to so-called followers of the respective user. Followers are other X users who follow a user’s tweets. Furthermore, X allows you to address a wide audience via hashtags, links or retweets.

The operating company of X is X Corp, Suite 900, 1355 Market Street, San Francisco, California, 94103.

Each time a page on this website, operated by the Data Controller, is accessed and contains an X component (such as an X button), the Internet browser on the user’s device automatically loads and displays the corresponding component. More information about the X buttons is available at X https://developer.x.com/en/docs/x-for-websites/tweet-button/overview . As part of this process, X may collect information about which specific sub-page of our website was visited. The integration of the X component is intended to facilitate content sharing, allowing users to promote our website and help increase visitor engagement.

If the Data Subject is logged into X at the same time they visit our website, X can track which specific sub-page of our site is visited during their session. This information is collected through the X component and linked to the Data Subject’s X account. If the Data Subject clicks on one of the X buttons integrated into our website, X associates this action with their personal X user account and stores the relevant personal data.

X receives information via the X component that the Data Subject has visited our website, provided that the Data Subject is logged into X at the time of the visit. This occurs regardless of whether the person interacts with the X component or not. If the Data Subject does not wish for this information to be transmitted to X, they can prevent it by logging out of their X account before visiting our website.
The applicable data protection provisions of Twitter may be accessed under X Privacy Policy.
