Scope of application
This privacy policy provides users with information on the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of their data by the responsible provider. The legal framework for data protection is provided by the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the German Telemedia Act (TMG).
Collection of general information
With every access to this offer, information is automatically collected by us or the web space provider. This information, also referred to as server log files, is of a general nature and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person. Among other things, the following are recorded: Name of the website, file, date, data volume, web browser and web browser version, operating system, the domain name of your internet provider, the so-called referrer URL (the page from which you accessed our website) and the IP address. Without this data, it would not be technically possible to deliver and display the contents of the website. In this respect, the collection of the data is absolutely necessary. In addition, we use the anonymous information for statistical purposes. They help us to optimise the offer and the technology. We also reserve the right to subsequently check the log files in the event of suspicion of illegal use of our offer.
Dealing with personal data
Definition: Personal data is any information that uniquely identifies a person. It is therefore data that can be traced back to a person. This personal data includes the first name and surname, the telephone number and the e-mail address. Information on hobbies, memberships and preferences as well as websites accessed are also considered personal data. This data is only collected, used and, if necessary, passed on by the provider if this is expressly permitted by law or if the user consents to the collection, processing, use and disclosure on of the data.
Registration on our website
If you register on our website in order to make use of personalised services, personal data will be collected. This includes the name, address, telephone number and e-mail address as contact and communication data. Registration allows access to services and content that are only available to registered users. If necessary, registered users have the option of changing or deleting the data provided during registration at any time. Upon request, we will of course inform you which personal data has been collected and stored. In addition, we will correct or delete the data on request, provided that there are no legal obligations to retain the data.

Contact form
If you contact us via the online form or by e-mail, we will store the information you provide in order to answer your enquiry and to be able to ask any follow-up questions.
Integration of third-party services and content
Our offer sometimes includes content, services and performances of other providers. These include, for example, maps provided by Google Maps, videos from YouTube and graphics and images from other websites. In order for this data to be called up and displayed in the user's browser, the transmission of the IP address is mandatory. The providers (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") therefore perceive the IP address of the respective user. Even though we strive to use only third-party providers who only need the IP address to deliver content, we have no influence on whether the IP address may be stored. In this case, this process serves statistical purposes, among other things. If we are aware that the IP address is stored, we inform our users of this fact.
Cookies
This website uses so-called cookies. These are text files that are stored on your computer from the server. They contain information about the browser, IP address, operating system and internet connection. We do not pass this data on to third parties or link it to personal data without your consent. Cookies fulfil two tasks in particular. They help us to make it easier for you to navigate through our website and enable the website to be displayed correctly. They are not used to introduce viruses or to launch programmes. Users also have the option of accessing our website without cookies. To do this, the corresponding settings must be changed in the browser. Please use the help function of your browser to find out how to deactivate cookies. However, we would like to point out that this may impair some of the functions of this website and reduce user comfort. The http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ (USA) and http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices/ (Europe) sites allow you to manage online ad cookies.
Data economy
In accordance with the principles of data avoidance and data economy, we only store personal data for as long as is necessary or prescribed by law (statutory storage period). If the purpose of the information collected no longer applies or the storage period ends, we block or delete the data
Your rights to information, correction, blocking, deletion and objection
You have the right to request information, free of charge, about the personal data stored by us and/or to demand correction, blocking or deletion. Exceptions: It is the mandatory data storage for business processing or the data is subject to the statutory retention requirement. In order to be able to consider a data block at any time, it is necessary to keep the data in a blocking file for control purposes. If there is no legal archiving obligation, you can also request the deletion of the data. Otherwise, we will block the data if you so wish.
Changes to our data protection declaration
In order to ensure that our data protection declaration always complies with the current legal requirements, we reserve the right to make changes at any time. This also applies in the event that the data protection declaration has to be adapted due to new or revised services, for example new services. The new data protection statement will then apply the next time you visit our website.
