1.2

When you contact us by e-mail or via a contact form, the data you provide (your e-mail address, name, and telephone number, if applicable) will be stored by us in order to answer your questions. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO.

We delete the data accruing in this context after the storage is no longer necessary or restrict the processing if there are statutory retention obligations.

We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

1.3

In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. These have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions, and are regularly monitored.

2. Collection of personal data when visiting our website

  • file, date, and time of access,
  • amount of data transferred,
  • notification of successful retrieval,
  • browser type and version,
  • the user's operating system,
  • Referrer URL (the previously visited page),

In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses are deleted or alienated so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.

4. Use of Google Analytics

4.1

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc ("Google"). Google Analytics uses the cookies described below, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site.
The _gat cookie is associated with Google Universal Analytics. The cookie is used to throttle the request rate.
This limits the collection of data on websites with high traffic. It expires after 10 minutes.

The _ga cookie is used to distinguish unique users by assigning a randomly generated number as a client ID. It is included in every page request of a website and is used to calculate visitor, session and campaign data for the websites' Analytics reports. By default, it expires after 2 years.
The _gid cookie is related to Google Universal Analytics. It stores and updates a unique value for each page visited.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. If IP anonymisation is activated on this website, however, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within Member States of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity, and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.
The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

4.2

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 website.

5. Integration of YouTube-Videos

5.1

We have integrated YouTube videos into our online offer, which are stored on http://www.YouTube.com and can be played directly from our website. These are all integrated in "extended data protection mode", i.e. no data about you as a user is transmitted to YouTube if you do not play the videos. Only when you play the videos will the data mentioned in paragraph 8.2 be transmitted. We have no influence on this data transmission.

5.2

By visiting the website, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding sub-page of our website. In addition, the data mentioned in paragraph 3 of this declaration is transmitted. This occurs regardless of whether YouTube provides a user account via which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want your data to be associated with your YouTube profile, you must log out before activating the button. YouTube stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or designing its website in line with requirements. Such an evaluation is carried out (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact YouTube to exercise this right.

6. WebFonts

6.1 Google Web Fonts

This site uses so-called web fonts provided by Google Inc ("Google") for the uniform display of fonts. These web fonts are integrated by means of a server call, usually a Google server in the USA. This transmits to the server which of our Internet pages you have visited. The IP address of the browser of the end device of the visitor to these Internet pages is also stored by Google. However, Google states that no cookies are set or visitor data (neither IP address, browser version, nor other personal information) are linked to any other data when the fonts are loaded.
When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font will be used by your computer.

You can find more information on Google Web Fonts at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

7. Data protection in applications and in the application procedure

7.1

When applying, we collect and process the personal data of applicants provided by you for the purpose of processing the application procedure. The processing may also take place electronically. This is particularly the case if you send us the relevant application documents electronically, for example by e-mail or via a web form on the website.

7.2

The legal basis for this use is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. and lit. b DS-GVO.

7.3

If an employment contract is concluded with you, we will store the transmitted data for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions.
If an employment contract is not concluded, the application documents will be deleted after the expiry of the two-month period for asserting any claims under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG), provided that no other legitimate interests of the data controller conflict with such deletion. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the AGG.

8. Privacy Policy Google Maps

This website uses the product Google Maps by Google Inc. By using this website, you consent to the collection, processing, and use of automatically collected data by Google Inc, its representatives and third parties.

9. SSL bzw. TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

10. Encrypted payment transactions on this website

If, after the conclusion of a contract with costs, there is an obligation to transmit your payment data to us (e.g. account number in the case of direct debit authorisation), this data is required for payment processing.

Payment transactions via the common means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are made exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
With encrypted communication, your payment data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

11. Data transmission when concluding contracts for online shops, dealers, and goods dispatch

We transmit personal data to third parties only if this is necessary in the context of contract processing, for example to the companies entrusted with the delivery of the goods or to the credit institution entrusted with the processing of payments. Further transmission of data does not take place or only if you have expressly consented to the transmission. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent, for example for advertising purposes.
The basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, which permits the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

12. Data protection provisions on the use and application of Facebook and social media plugins

12.1 Facebook Plugins (Like & Share-Button)

Plugins of the social network Facebook, provider Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA, are integrated on our pages. You can recognise the Facebook plugins by the Facebook logo or the "Like button" ("Like") on our page. You can find an overview of the Facebook plugins here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
When you visit our pages, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Facebook server via the plugin. Facebook thereby receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you click the Facebook "Like" button while you are logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages on your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate the visit to our pages with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of the pages, have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Facebook. You can find more information on this in Facebook's privacy policy at: https://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php.

12.3 Use of the Facebook "visitor action pixel"

With your consent, the "visitor action pixel" of Facebook Inc., 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook") is used within our website.
The "visitor action pixel" can be used to track users' actions as soon as they are redirected to a provider's website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This enables us to record the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes and to optimise our marketing measures accordingly. The data collected is anonymous for us; we cannot view or draw any conclusions about the personal data of individual users.
Facebook stores and processes this data. Facebook can therefore assign this data to your Facebook account. They may enable Facebook and its partners to serve ads on and off Facebook. Furthermore, a cookie may be stored on your computer for these purposes. You can find more information on the collection and use of data by Facebook, as well as your rights in this regard and options for protecting your privacy, in Facebook's data guidelines: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.
