General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website
If you have consented to the processing of your data, we process your personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, provided that special categories of data as defined in Article 9(1) of the GDPR are being processed. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Article 49(1)(a) of the GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing is additionally based on Section 25(1) of the German Telemedia Act (TDDDG). Consent may be revoked at any time. If your data is necessary for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation on the basis of Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The legal bases applicable in each individual case are described in the following sections of this Privacy Policy.
Notice Regarding Data Transfer to Third Countries That Do Not Offer Adequate Data Protection and to U.S. Companies That Are Not DPF-Certified
We use, among other things, tools from companies based in third countries that do not offer adequate data protection, as well as U.S. tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these countries and processed there. Please note that a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed in third countries that are not considered safe for data protection purposes.
Please note that the United States, as a safe third country, generally maintains a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU. Data transfers to the United States are therefore permitted if the recipient is certified under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF) or has appropriate additional safeguards in place. Information regarding transfers to third countries, including the recipients of the data, can be found in this Privacy Policy.
Recipients of Personal Data
As part of our business operations, we collaborate with various external parties. In some cases, this requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of data. When using processors, we only transfer our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.
Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent that has already been given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to object to data collection in specific cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)( E OR F OF THE GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. YOU CAN FIND THE SPECIFIC LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING IS NECESSARY FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR SUCH MARKETING PURPOSES; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING, TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place where the alleged violation occurred. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any 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 fulfillment of a contract provided to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.
Access, Rectification, and Erasure
Within the framework of applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as, where applicable, the right to have this data rectified or erased. You may contact us at any time regarding this matter or any other questions about personal data.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. You may contact us at any time to exercise this right. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
- If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR, a balancing of your interests against ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet 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, such data may—apart from storage—be processed only with your consent, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
4. Data Collection on This Website
Inquiries via Email, Phone, or Fax
If you contact us via email, phone, or fax, your inquiry—including all personal data contained therein (name, inquiry)—will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not disclose this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, provided that your inquiry is related to the performance 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 handling of inquiries directed to us (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR) if such consent was requested; consent may be revoked at any time.
The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions—in particular statutory retention periods—remain unaffected.
Comment Feature on This Website
In addition to your comment, the comment feature on this site also stores information about the time the comment was posted, your email address, and—if you are not posting anonymously—the username you have chosen.
Retention period for comments
The comments and associated data are stored and remain on this website until the content being commented on has been completely deleted or the comments must be deleted for legal reasons (e.g., offensive comments).
Legal basis
Comments are stored based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may revoke your consent at any time. To do so, simply send us an informal email. The lawfulness of data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation.
5. Social media
Social Media Elements with Shariff
This website uses social media elements (e.g., Facebook, X, Instagram, Pinterest, XING, LinkedIn, Tumblr).
You can usually recognize these social media elements by their respective social media logos.
To ensure data protection on this website, we use these elements only in conjunction
with the so-called “Shariff” solution. This application prevents the social media elements integrated into this website from transmitting your personal data to the respective provider the moment you first visit the site.
Only when you activate the respective social media element by clicking the corresponding button is a direct connection established to the provider’s server (consent). As soon as you activate the social media element, the respective provider receives the information that you have visited this website using your IP address. If you are simultaneously logged into your respective social media account (e.g., Facebook), the respective provider can associate your visit to this website with your user account.
Activating the plugin constitutes consent within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG. You may revoke this consent at any time with future effect.
This service is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of certain technologies. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.
This website incorporates elements of the Facebook social network. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland. However, according to Facebook, the collected data is also transferred to the United States and other third countries.

If you click the Facebook “Like” button while logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of this website to your Facebook profile.
This allows Facebook to associate your visit to this website with your user account. Please note that, as the provider of these pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Facebook. For more information, please refer to Facebook’s Privacy Policy at:
