General information on data processing

Scope of personal data processing
The Company agrees to process any personal data disclosed to the Company by our users only in so far as required for providing a functioning website as well as that of our content and services. Any processing of personal data of our users regularly only takes place after their consent was obtained. An exception applies in those cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for real reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

Legal basis for processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR as the legal basis.

In the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract of which the data subject is a contacting party, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In case that vital interests of the concerned person or another natural person necessitate the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In case that processing is required for safeguarding the legitimate interest of our company or that of a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

Data deletion and storage period
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Furthermore, data may be stored if this has thus been provided for by European or national legislators in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the responsible party is subject.


Provision of this website and creation of log files

Description and scope of data processing

With every visit of our website our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling computer.

The following data is collected in this process

  • Information on the type and version of the browser used
  • The user’s operating system
  • The user’s service provider
  • The user’s IP address
  • Date and Time of the visit
  • Websites from which the user’s system accessed our website
  • Websites the user access via our website

These data is also stored in the log files of our system. There is no joint storage of such data together with other personal data of the user.

Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.

The purpose of data processing
The temporary storage of an IP address by the system is necessary to ensure that the website can be delivered to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.

The storage of data in log files is meant to ensure the functionality of the website. Additionally, the data serve to optimize the website and to ensure the safety of our information technology systems. No evaluation of the data for marketing purposes is taking place in this context. Our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR also serves these purposes.

Duration of the storage
The data is deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of data collection for the purpose of providing the website, this happens after the termination of the session, or within 14 days at the latest.

Options for objection and deletion
The collection of data for providing the website and the storage of such data in log files is indispensable for operating the website. Consequently, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user.

In exercising this right, you further have the right to request that the personal data concerning you personally be transferred directly from one responsible party to another responsible party, insofar as this is technically feasible.
