2. General information

This privacy policy explains which personal data is processed when you visit this website. Personal data means any information that can be used to identify a person directly or indirectly.

This website is transmitted in encrypted form via HTTPS. This protects content exchanged between the browser and the server from being read by third parties.

3. Hosting and server log data

This website is hosted by Hostinger. Depending on the Hostinger Group company responsible for the contract, the provider is in particular Hostinger International Ltd., 61 Lordou Vironos Street, 6023 Larnaca, Cyprus. Hostinger processes data on behalf of the controller where this is necessary to provide and secure the website.

When you access the website, your browser transmits technically necessary data to the web server. This may include, in particular, the IP address, date and time of access, requested address, amount of data transferred, referrer URL, browser type, operating system and access status. This information is processed in server log files in order to provide the website technically, identify faults and prevent attacks.

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the secure, stable and efficient operation of the website. Log data is retained only for as long as is necessary for operation, fault analysis and security, and is then deleted or anonymised, unless statutory retention obligations or specific security incidents require longer storage.

4. Contact

If you contact us by email or telephone, the information you provide will be processed in order to handle your enquiry and answer any follow-up questions. The website itself does not contain a contact form.

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where the communication serves to initiate or perform a contract. In all other cases, processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR; the legitimate interest lies in responding appropriately to enquiries. The data is deleted once the enquiry has been fully dealt with and no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.

5. Technically necessary functions and language setting

The website uses only technically necessary functions. Information about the selected language may be stored in the browser so that the requested language version can be provided. This storage serves solely to provide the function requested by the visitor and is not used to create user profiles.

Where information is stored on or read from the user’s device, this is done on the basis of Section 25(2)(2) TDDDG. The subsequent processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in providing a functional and user-friendly multilingual website.

6. No audience measurement or marketing tracking

This website currently uses no audience measurement services, personalised advertising or marketing tracking. In particular, Google Analytics is not integrated. Fonts are not loaded directly from Google servers.

If analytics, marketing or external media services requiring consent are added at a later date, they will be loaded only after voluntary consent has been given. In that event, this privacy policy and the consent management system will be updated accordingly before activation.

7. External links

This website contains links to external websites. Simply viewing this website does not transmit any data to the operators of the linked websites. The privacy policies of the respective providers apply only when you follow an external link.

8. Recipients and processors

Personal data is transferred to service providers only where this is necessary for the operation, maintenance, security and hosting of the website. Where legally required, these service providers are engaged on the basis of a data processing agreement pursuant to Article 28 GDPR. Any further transfer takes place only where there is a legal obligation or you have given your consent.

9. Retention period

Unless a specific retention period is stated in this policy, personal data is deleted as soon as the respective purpose for processing no longer applies. Statutory retention and documentation obligations remain unaffected.

10. Your rights

Subject to the statutory requirements, you have in particular the right to obtain information about your personal data, to have inaccurate data rectified, to erasure, to restriction of processing, to data portability and to object to processing based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR. Any consent given may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. In North Rhine-Westphalia, this is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of North Rhine-Westphalia (LDI NRW). Information and the complaint form are available at www.ldi.nrw.de/kontakt/ihre-beschwerde.

11. Automated decision-making

No automated decision-making, including profiling, takes place.

12. Changes to this privacy policy

This privacy policy will be updated if the website, the services used or the legal requirements change.
