Privacy

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy. The use of our website is usually possible without submitting any personal data. Insofar as personal data (e.g. name, address or e-mail addresses) is collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. These data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.

We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating via email) may not be secure. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Cookies

The webpages sometimes use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer and stored by your browser. Most of the cookies that we use are so-called "session cookies". They will be deleted automatically after the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit. You can set your browser to inform you of the setting of cookies and to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and to enable the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. The function of this website may be limited if cookies are disabled.

Server Log Files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. The information collected is: browser type and browser version, operating system used, referrer URL, host name of the accessing computer and time of server request. These data cannot be associated with a specific individual. These data are not combined with other data sources. We reserve the right to check these data retrospectively if we become aware of concrete indications of illegal use.

Contact form

If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not pass on these data without your consent.

Newsletter data

If you wish to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require you to provide an email address as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. No other data will be collected. We use these data exclusively for the sending of the requested information and will not pass it on to third parties. You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the email address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the "Unsubscribe" link in the newsletter.

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies". These are text files that are saved on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is usually transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the USA.

Google Analytics
 

We have activated the IP anonymisation function on this website. As a result, your IP address within EU Member States or in other member states of the European Economic Area will be shortened before being transmitted to the USA. The full IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases. Google will use this information on behalf of the website operator for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services for the website operator relating to website activity and internet usage. Your browser’s IP address transmitted for Google Analytics purposes will not be associated with any other data held by Google.

Contract data processing
 

We have concluded a contract with Google for contract data processing and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

 

Demographic features of Google Analytics
 

This website uses the "demographic features" function of Google Analytics. This allows the creation of reports that contain statements about the age, gender and interests of page visitors. These data come from interest-based advertising by Google as well as from third-party providers' visitor data. These data cannot be associated with a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time via the advert settings in your Google Account or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the paragraph "Objection to data collection".

Google Maps

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

The Terms of Use of Google Maps can be found under Terms of Use of Google Maps.

Google AdWords Conversion Tracking

We use the online advertising program "Google AdWords" and, as part of Google AdWords, the conversion tracking. Google Conversion Tracking is an analytics service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). When you click an advert placed by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is placed on your computer. These cookies expire after 30 days, do not contain any personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognise that you have clicked the advert and have been redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. As a result, there is no possibility that cookies can be tracked via AdWords customers' websites. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who have clicked their advert and have been redirected to a page that has been provided with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users. If you do not wish to participate in the tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly (possibility of deactivation). They are then not included in the conversion tracking statistics. Further information and Google's privacy policy can be found at: http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/, http://www.google.de/policies/privacy/
