Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. An informal email making this request is sufficient. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.
SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection in your browser’s address line when it changes from “http://” to “https://” and the lock icon is displayed in your browser’s address bar2.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

Data collection on our website
Cookies The internet pages partly use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain in your device’s memory until you delete them. These cookies make it possible to recognize your browser when you next visit the site.
You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept or reject a cookie. Alternatively, your browser can be configured to automatically accept cookies under certain conditions or to always reject them, or to automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies which are necessary to allow electronic communications or to provide certain functions you wish to use (such as the shopping cart) are stored pursuant to Art. 6 paragraph 1, letter f of DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies to ensure an optimized service provided free of technical errors. If other cookies (such as those used to analyze your surfing behavior) are also stored, they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.
Server log files
The website provider automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us in “server log files”. These are:
● Browser type and browser version
● Operating system used
● Referrer URL
● Hostname of the accessing computer
● Time of the server request
● IP address
The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (b) DSGVO, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or for measures preliminary to a contract.
Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the request and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of the data entered into the contact form is therefore exclusively based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal message by email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you entered in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - especially retention periods - remain unaffected.
Google Tag Manager
This website uses Google Tag Manager. This service allows website tags to be managed via an interface. The Google Tool Manager only implements tags. This means: No cookies are used and no personal data is collected. The Google Tool Manager triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. However, the Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If a deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, it will remain in effect for all tracking tags as long as they are implemented with the Google Tag Manager.
Social Media
Facebook Plugins (Like & Share Button) Our pages integrate plugins from the social network Facebook, provider Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA. You can recognize the Facebook plugins by the Facebook logo or the “Like-Button” (“Like”) on our site. An overview of the Facebook plugins can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
When you visit our pages, a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook server is established 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 contents of our pages on your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate visits 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. Further information on this can be found in Facebook’s privacy policy at: https://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php.
If you do not want Facebook to be able to assign visits to our pages to your Facebook user account, please log out of your Facebook user account.
You can change your privacy settings on Twitter in the account settings at https://twitter.com/account/settings.
Google+ Plugin
Our pages use features from Google+. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Collection and dissemination of information: With the Google+ button, you can publish information worldwide. The Google+ button provides you and other users with personalized content from Google and our partners. Google stores both the information that you have given +1 for a content and information about the page that you viewed when you clicked on +1. Your +1 can be displayed as clues along with your profile name and photo in Google services, such as in search results or in your Google profile, or elsewhere on websites and ads on the internet.
Google+
Google records information about your +1 activities to improve Google services for you and others. To use the Google+ button, you need a globally visible, public Google profile, which must contain at least the name chosen for the profile. This name is used in all Google services. In some cases, this name can also replace another name that you used when sharing content through your Google account. The identity of your Google profile can be shown to users who know your email address or have other identifying information from you.
Use of the collected information: In addition to the uses outlined above, the information you provide is used in accordance with the applicable Google privacy policy. Google may publish summarized statistics about users’ +1 activity or share it with users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers, or affiliate websites.
Instagram Plugin Our pages include functions of the Instagram service. These functions are offered by Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA.
If you are logged into your Instagram account, you can link the content of our pages to your Instagram profile by clicking on the Instagram button. This allows Instagram to associate visits to our pages with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of these pages, have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Instagram.
For more information, see the Instagram Privacy Policy: https://instagram.com/about/legal/privacy/.
LinkedIn Plugin Our site uses functions from the LinkedIn network. The service is provided by LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Each time one of our pages containing LinkedIn features is accessed, your browser establishes a direct connection to the LinkedIn servers. LinkedIn is informed that you have visited our web pages from your IP address. If you use the LinkedIn “Recommend” button and are logged into your LinkedIn account, it is possible for LinkedIn to associate your visit to our website with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of these pages, have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by LinkedIn.

When you call up a page that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Pinterest servers. The plugin transmits log data to the Pinterest server in the USA. This log data may contain your IP address, the address of the websites visited, which also contain Pinterest functions, the type and settings of the browser, the date and time of the request, your use of Pinterest and cookies.

ANALYSIS TOOLS AND ADVERTISING GOOGLE ANALYTICS 4
This website uses Google Analytics 4, a service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”), which can be used to analyze the use of websites.
When using Google Analytics 4, so-called “cookies” are used as standard. Cookies are text files that are stored on your device and allow an analysis of your use of a website. The information collected by cookies about your use of the website (including the IP address transmitted by your device, shortened to the last digits, see below) is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored and processed there. This can also result in the transmission of information to the servers of Google LLC based in the USA and further processing of the information there.
When using Google Analytics 4, the IP address transmitted by your device when you use the website is always and automatically collected and processed in an anonymized manner, so that a direct personal reference of the collected information is excluded. This automatic anonymization is achieved by Google shortening the IP address transmitted by your device within member states of the European Union (EU) or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA).
On our behalf, Google uses this and other information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports (reports) on your website activities or your usage behavior, and to provide us with other services related to your website usage and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your device in the context of Google Analytics 4 and shortened is not merged with other Google data. The data collected in the context of the use of Google Analytics 4 are stored for 14 months and then deleted.
Google Analytics 4 also enables the creation of statistics with statements about age, gender, and interests of website users based on an evaluation of interest-based advertising and the inclusion of third-party information via a special function, the so-called “demographic characteristics”. This makes it possible to determine and distinguish user groups of the website for the purpose of targeting marketing measures. However, data collected via the “demographic characteristics” cannot be assigned to a specific person and therefore not to you personally. This data collected via the “demographic characteristics” function is stored for two months and then deleted.
All the processing described above, in particular the setting of Google Analytics cookies for the storage and reading of information on the device you use to use the website, only takes place if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 will not be used during your use of the website. You can revoke your once given consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, please deactivate this service via the “Cookie Consent Tool” provided on the website.
Here is the English translation of the text you provided:
Google Signals
In connection with this website, Google Signals is also used as an extension of Google Analytics 4. With Google Signals, we can have cross-device reports (reports) created by Google (so-called “Cross Device Tracking”). If you have activated “personalized ads” in your settings in your Google account and have linked your internet-capable devices with your Google account, Google can analyze the usage behavior across devices when you give your consent to the use of Google Analytics 4 in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and create database models based on this. The logins and device types of all website users who were logged into a Google account and carried out a conversion are taken into account. The data shows, among other things, on which device you clicked on an ad for the first time and on which device the corresponding conversion took place. We do not receive any personal data from Google, but only statistics created on the basis of Google Signals. You have the option to deactivate the “personalized ads” function in the settings of your Google account and thus stop the cross-device analysis in connection with Google Signals.
Plugins and Tools YouTube
Our website uses plugins from the Google-operated site YouTube. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.
When you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited.
If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
The use of YouTube is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
You can find more information on handling user data in YouTube’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
Google Web Fonts This site uses so-called web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly.
For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to the Google servers. This gives Google knowledge that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font will be used by your computer.
You can find more information about Google Web Fonts at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
Google Maps This site uses the map service Google Maps via an API. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
To use the functions of Google Maps, it is necessary to save your IP address. This information is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transfer.
The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers and an easy location of the places indicated by us on the website. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
For more information on how user data is handled, please see Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
