Applicable legal basis
In the following, we provide the legal basis of the Basic Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO), on the basis of which we process personal data. Please note that in addition to the regulations of the DSGVO, national data protection regulations may apply in your or our country of residence and domicile. Should more specific legal regulations apply in individual cases, we will inform you of these in the data protection declaration.
- consent (art. 6 par. 1 sentence 1 letter a DSGVO) - The data subject has given his/her consent to the processing of personal data concerning him/her for one or more specific purposes.
- contractual performance and pre-contractual requests (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b. DPA) - The processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or for carrying out pre-contractual measures taken at the request of the data subject.
- Legal obligation (art. 6 par. 1 p. 1 letter c. DSGVO) - The processing is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which the responsible person is subject.
- Legitimate interests (art. 6 par. 1 p. 1 letter f. DSGVO) - The processing is necessary for the protection of the legitimate interests of the controller or of a third party, except where such interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject require the protection of personal data to be safeguarded.
National data protection regulations in Germany: In addition to the data protection regulations of the basic data protection regulation, national regulations on data protection apply in Germany. These include in particular the law on protection against misuse of personal data in data processing (Federal Data Protection Act - BDSG). In particular, the BDSG contains special regulations on the right to information, the right to deletion, the right of objection, the processing of special categories of personal data, processing for other purposes and transmission as well as automated decision making in individual cases including profiling. Furthermore, it regulates data processing for the purposes of the employment relationship (§ 26 BDSG), in particular with regard to the establishment, implementation or termination of employment relationships and the consent of employees. In addition, the data protection laws of the individual federal states may apply.
Security measures
We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing, as well as the different probabilities of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in order to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
The measures include in particular the safeguarding of the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling the physical and electronic access to the data as well as the access, input, disclosure, safeguarding of availability and separation of the data. Furthermore, we have established procedures to ensure that the rights of data subjects are exercised, that data is deleted, and to respond to any threats to the data. Furthermore, we take the protection of personal data into account as early as the development or selection of hardware, software and processes in accordance with the principle of data protection, by designing technology and by using data protection-friendly default settings.
.Use of cookies
Cookies are text files that contain data from visited websites or domains and are stored by a browser on the user's computer. The primary purpose of a cookie is to store information about a user during or after his visit within an website. The stored information can include, for example, the language settings on a website, the login status, a shopping cart or the location where a video was viewed. The term "cookies" also includes other technologies that perform the same functions as cookies (e.g., when user information is stored using pseudonymous online identifiers, also known as "user IDs")
.The following cookie types and functions are distinguished:
- Temporary cookies (also: session or session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left a website and closed his browser.
- Permanent Cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after closing the browser. For example, the login status can be saved or preferred content can be displayed directly when the user visits a website again. Likewise, the interests of users used for reach measurement or marketing purposes can be stored in such a cookie. .
- First-Party-Cookies: First-Party-Cookies are set by ourselves.
- Third-party cookies (also: third-party cookies): Third-party cookies are mainly used by advertisers (so-called third parties) to process user information.
- Necessary (also: essential or absolutely necessary) cookies: Cookies can be absolutely necessary for the operation of a website (e.g. to store logins or other user entries or for security reasons). Cookies can be used to store information about the user's computer, such as the user's name, address, telephone number, email address, etc.
- Statistical, marketing and personalization cookies: Cookies are also generally used in the context of range measurement and when a user's interests or behavior (e.g., viewing certain content, using functions, etc.) on individual Web pages are stored in a user profile. Such profiles are used to show users e.g. content that corresponds to their potential interests. This procedure is also known as "tracking", i.e. following the potential interests of users. If we use cookies or "tracking" technologies, we will inform you separately in our privacy policy or when you give your consent. .
Notes on legal bases: On which legal basis we process your personal data with the help of cookies depends on whether we ask you for your consent. If this is the case and you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis for processing your data is the declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed with the aid of cookies will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. in the business operation of our online offer and its improvement) or, if the use of cookies is necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations.
.Storage duration: If we do not provide you with explicit information on the storage duration of permanent cookies (e.g. in the context of a so-called cookie opt-in), please assume that the storage duration can be up to two years.
General information on revocation and objection (Opt-Out): Depending on whether the processing is based on consent or legal permission, you have the possibility at any time to revoke any consent given or to object to the processing of your data by cookie technologies (collectively referred to as "Opt-Out"). You can initially declare your objection by means of the settings of your browser, e.g. by deactivating the use of cookies (although this may also restrict the functionality of our online service). An objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can also be declared by means of a variety of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the websites https://optout.aboutads.info and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/. In addition, you can receive further notices of objection in the context of the information on the service providers and cookies used.
.Processing of cookie data on the basis of consent: Before we process data within the scope of the use of cookies or have them processed, we ask users for their consent, which can be revoked at any time. Before consent has not been given, we will only use cookies that are absolutely necessary for the operation of our online service.
.- Processed data types: Usage data (e.g. websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses).
- People concerned: Users (e.g. website visitors, users of online services).
- Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO), legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f. DSGVO).
Commercial and business services
We process data of our contractual and business partners, e.g. customers and interested parties (collectively referred to as "contractual partners") within the scope of contractual and comparable legal relationships as well as related measures and within the scope of communication with the contractual partners (or pre-contractual), e.g. to answer inquiries.
We process these data for the fulfilment of our contractual obligations, for the safeguarding of our rights and for the purposes of the administrative tasks associated with these data as well as for the business organisation. Within the framework of the applicable law, we only pass on the data of the contractual partners to third parties to the extent that this is necessary for the aforementioned purposes or to fulfil legal obligations or with the consent of the persons concerned (e.g. to involved telecommunication, transport and other auxiliary services as well as subcontractors, banks, tax and legal advisors, payment service providers or tax authorities). The contractual partners will be informed about other forms of processing, e.g. for marketing purposes, within the scope of this data protection declaration.
.Which data is required for the above-mentioned purposes, we will inform the contractual partners before or during the data collection, e.g. in online forms, by special marking (e.g. colors) or symbols (e.g. asterisks or similar), or personally.
We delete the data after expiration of legal warranty and comparable obligations, i.e., in principle after 4 years, unless the data is stored in a customer account, e.g., as long as it must be kept for legal archiving reasons (e.g., for tax purposes usually 10 years). We will delete data that has been disclosed to us by the contractual partner within the scope of an order in accordance with the specifications of the order, in principle after the end of the order.
.If we use third party providers or platforms to provide our services, the terms and conditions and data protection notices of the respective third party providers or platforms apply in the relationship between the users and the providers.
Project and development services: We process the data of our customers and principals (hereinafter referred to as "customers") in order to enable them to select, purchase or commission the selected services or works and related activities, as well as to pay for and make them available or carry out or provide them.
The required information is marked as such within the scope of the order, contract or comparable contract conclusion and includes the information required for the provision of services and invoicing as well as contact information in order to be able to make any necessary arrangements. Insofar as we gain access to information from end customers, employees or other persons, we process this information in accordance with the legal and contractual requirements.
.- Processed data types: Inventory data (e.g. names, addresses), payment data (e.g. bank details, invoices, payment history), contact data (e.g. e-mail, telephone numbers), contract data (e.g. object of contract, duration, customer category).
- Persons concerned: Interested parties, business and contractual partners.
- Purposes of processing: contractual services and service, contact requests and communication, office and organizational procedures, management and answering of requests.
- Legal bases: Fulfilment of contract and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b. DSGVO), Legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c. DSGVO), Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f. DSGVO).
Provision of the online offer and web hosting
In order to be able to provide our online offer securely and efficiently, we use the services of one or more web hosting providers from whose servers (or servers managed by them) the online offer can be accessed. For these purposes, we may use infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services, as well as security and technical maintenance services.
The data processed in the context of the provision of the hosting offer may include all data relating to the users of our online offer, which are generated in the context of use and communication. This regularly includes the IP address, which is necessary to be able to deliver the contents of online offers to browsers, and all entries made within our online offer or from websites.
.Email dispatch and hosting: The web hosting services we use also include the dispatch, receipt and storage of emails. For these purposes, the addresses of the recipients and senders as well as other information concerning the email dispatch (e.g. the providers involved) and the contents of the respective emails are processed. The aforementioned data may also be processed for SPAM detection purposes. Please note that emails on the Internet are generally not sent encrypted. As a rule, emails are encrypted in transit, but (unless an end-to-end encryption method is used) not on the servers from which they are sent and received. We can therefore not assume any responsibility for the transmission path of the emails between the sender and the reception on our server.
Collection of access data and log files: We ourselves (or our web hosting provider) collect data on every access to the server (so-called server log files). The server log files may include the address and name of the web pages and files accessed, date and time of access, data volume transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page) and, as a rule, IP addresses and the requesting provider.
The server log files can be used for security purposes, e.g. to avoid overloading the servers (especially in case of abusive attacks, so-called DDoS attacks) and to ensure the utilization of the servers and their stability.
- Processed data types: Content data (e.g. text entries, photographs, videos), usage data (e.g. websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses).
- Persons concerned: Users (e.g. website visitors, users of online services).
- Legal basis: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f. DSGVO).
Contact
When contacting us (e.g. via contact form, e-mail, telephone or social media), the data of the inquiring persons will be processed to the extent necessary to answer the contact inquiries and any requested measures.
The answering of contact requests within the scope of contractual or pre-contractual relations is done to fulfill our contractual obligations or to answer (pre)contractual requests and otherwise on the basis of the legitimate interest in answering the requests.
- Processed data types: Stock data (e.g. names, addresses), contact data (e.g. email, telephone numbers), content data (e.g. text entries, photographs, videos).
- Persons concerned: Communication partner.
- Purposes of processing: contact requests and communication.
- Legal bases: Fulfillment of contract and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b. DSGVO), legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f. DSGVO).
Presence in social networks (social media)
We maintain online presences within social networks and process user data in this context in order to communicate with the users active there or to offer information about us.
We would like to point out that user data may be processed outside the European Union. This may entail risks for the users, because it could, for example, make it more difficult to enforce the rights of the users.
.Furthermore, the data of users within social networks are usually processed for market research and advertising purposes. For example, user profiles can be created on the basis of user behavior and the resulting interests of the users. The user profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within and outside the networks that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the users' computers, in which the usage behaviour and interests of the users are stored. Furthermore, data may also be stored in the user profiles regardless of the devices used by the users (especially if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them).
For a detailed presentation of the respective forms of processing and the possibilities of objection (opt-out), we refer to the data protection declarations and information provided by the operators of the respective networks.
Even in the case of requests for information and the assertion of rights of affected persons, we point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the providers. Only the providers have access to the data of the users and can take appropriate measures and provide information directly. Should you nevertheless require assistance, please contact us.
- Processed data types: Stock data (e.g. names, addresses), contact data (e.g. email, telephone numbers), content data (e.g. text entries, photographs, videos), usage data (e.g. websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses).
- Persons concerned: Users (e.g. website visitors, users of online services).
- Purposes of processing: Contact requests and communication, tracking (e.g. interest/behavioural profiling, use of cookies), remarketing, reach measurement (e.g. access statistics, recognition of returning visitors).
- Legal basis: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f. DSGVO).

Deletion of data
The data processed by us will be deleted in accordance with the legal requirements as soon as their consent to processing is revoked or other permissions cease to apply (e.g. if the purpose for which the data was processed no longer applies or if the data is not necessary for the purpose).

.If we provide addresses and contact information of companies and organizations in this privacy statement, please note that the addresses may change over time and please check the information before contacting us.
Rights of the persons concerned
As a data subject, you are entitled to various rights under the DSGVO, which result in particular from Art. 15 to 21 DSGVO:
- Right to object: You have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is carried out pursuant to art. 6, paragraph 1, letter e or f of the DPA; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If the personal data concerning you are processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing, including profiling, insofar as it is linked to such direct marketing.
- Right of revocation for consents: You have the right to revoke given consents at any time.
- Right of access: You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not data in question is being processed and to request information about this data and to receive further information and a copy of the data in accordance with the legal requirements.
- Right of rectification: You have the right, in accordance with the law, to request the completion of the data concerning you or the rectification of incorrect data concerning you.
- Right to deletion and restriction of processing: You have the right, in accordance with legal requirements, to demand that data concerning you be deleted immediately, or alternatively, in accordance with legal requirements, to demand restriction of processing of the data.

- Complaint to the supervisory authority: You also have the right, in accordance with the statutory provisions, to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the suspected infringement, if you believe that the processing of personal data relating to you is in breach of the DSGVO.
Definitions of terms
This section provides an overview of the terms used in this privacy policy. Many of the terms are taken from the law and are defined above all in Art. 4 DSGVO. The legal definitions are binding. The following explanations, on the other hand, are primarily intended to help you understand them. The terms are sorted alphabetically.
- Personal data: "Personal data" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as “person concerned"); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier (e.g. a website address, a telephone number, an e-mail address, a fax number, a postal address, etc.). (e.g. cookie) or to one or more special characteristics which reveal the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
- Reach measurement: Reach measurement (also known as web analytics) is used to evaluate the streams of visitors to an online offering and can include the behavior or interests of visitors in certain information, such as the content of websites. With the help of reach analysis, website owners can, for example, identify at what time visitors visit their website and what content they are interested in. This enables them to better adapt the contents of the website to the needs of their visitors. Pseudonymous cookies and web beacons are often used for reach analysis purposes in order to recognize returning visitors and thus obtain more precise analyses of the use of an online offering.
- Remarketing:Remarketing" or "retargeting" is used when, for example, it is noted for advertising purposes in which products a user on a website was interested in, in order to remind the user on other websites of these products, e.g. in advertisements.
- Tracking:The term "tracking" is used when the behavior of users can be traced across multiple online offerings. As a rule, behavioral and interest information regarding the online offers used is stored in cookies or on servers of the providers of the tracking technologies (so-called profiling). This information can then be used, for example, to display advertisements to users that are likely to match their interests.
- Controller:The term "controller" means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.
- Processing: "Processing" means any operation or set of operations, performed with or without the assistance of automated means, concerning personal data. The term is broad and covers practically all handling of data, be it collection, analysis, storage, communication or deletion. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
