The following gives a simple overview of what happens to your personal information when you visit our website. Personal information is any data with which you could be personally identified. Detailed information on the subject of data protection can be found in our privacy policy found below.
The protection of your privacy when processing personal data is an important concern for us.

Personal data
Personal data are data about your person. You do not need to provide any personal data to visit our website, and you do not have to provide any personal data to visit our website. In some cases, we may need your name and address and other information to provide you with services you requested.
The same applies if we supply you with information material on request or if we answer your inquiries. In these cases we will always point this out for you. Furthermore, we only store the data that you have automatically or voluntarily transmitted to us.
If you use one of our services, we usually only collect the data that is necessary to provide you with our service. We may ask you for further information, but this is voluntary. Whenever we process personal data, we do so in order to provide you with our service or to pursue our commercial goals.
Automatically stored data
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. These are:
- Date and time of the request
- Name of the requested file
- Page from which the file was requested
- Access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.)
- the web browser and operating system used
- complete IP address of the requesting computer
- data volume transferred
This data is not merged with other data sources. Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our justified interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.
For reasons of technical security, in particular to defend against attempts to attack our web server, this data is stored by us for a short time. It is not possible for us to draw conclusions about individual persons on the basis of this data. After seven days at the latest, the data is anonymised by shortening the IP address at domain level, so that it is no longer possible to establish a link to the individual user. In anonymised form, the data is also processed for statistical purposes; it is not compared with other data sets or passed on to third parties, even in excerpts. Only in the context of our server statistics, which we publish every two years in our activity report, is a presentation of the number of page impressions.
Cookies
When you visit our website, we may store information on your computer in the form of cookies. Cookies are small files that are transferred from an Internet server to your browser and stored on its hard disk. Only the internet protocol address is stored — no personal data. This information, which is stored in the cookies, makes it possible to automatically recognize you the next time you visit our website, which makes it easier for you to use. The legal basis for the use of cookies is the legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
Of course you can also visit our website without accepting cookies. If you do not want your computer to be recognised on your next visit, you can also refuse the use of cookies by changing the settings in your browser to “refuse cookies”. You will find the respective procedure in the operating instructions of your respective browser. If you refuse the use of cookies, however, this may result in restrictions in the use of some areas of our website.
Google AdWords
Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you have reached our website via an advertisement placed by Google, Google Adwords will set a cookie on your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad served by Google. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not personally identifiable. If the user visits certain pages on our site and the cookie hasn’t expired, we and Google can tell that the user clicked the ad and was redirected to that page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. As a result, cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected through the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for those advertisers who have opted in to conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page 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 tracking, you can refuse the necessary setting of a cookie — for example, by changing your browser settings to disable the automatic setting of cookies generally or to set your browser to block cookies from the domain “googleleadservices.com”.
Please note that you may not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not wish to record measurement data. If you have deleted all your cookies in the browser, you will have to set the respective opt-out cookie again.
Google Analytics with anonymization function
We use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of the company Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, hereinafter referred to as “Google” on our website. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and thus enable an analysis of your use of the website.
The information generated by these cookies, such as time, place and frequency of your website visit, including your IP address, is transferred to Google in the USA and stored there.
We use Google Analytics with the addition “_gat._anonymizeIp” on our website. In this case, your IP address will already be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area and thus made anonymous.
Google will use this information to evaluate your use of our website, to compile reports on website activities for us and to provide further services related to website and internet use. Google may also transfer this information to third parties if required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.
Google will, according to its own information, under no circumstances connect your IP address with other Google data. 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 our website.
Google also offers a deactivation add-on for the most popular browsers, which gives you more control over what information Google collects about the sites you visit. The add-on tells the JavaScript(ga.js) of Google Analytics that no information about your website visit should be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, the Google Analytics browser disablement add-on does not prevent information from being sent to us or to other web analytics services we may use. For more information on how to install the browser add-on, please click on the link below: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
Clicking the link will set an opt-out cookie in your browser, which is valid only for that browser and domain. If you delete the cookies in this browser, the opt-out cookie will also be deleted, so you will have to click the link again.
If you have agreed to have Google link your web and app browsing history to your Google Account and use information from your Google Account to personalize ads, Google will use your information, along with Google Analytics data, to create audience lists for cross-device remarketing. Google Analytics first collects your Google-authenticated ID linked to your Google Account (i.e., personal information) on our website. Google Analytics will then temporarily link your ID to your Google Analytics data to optimise our target groups.
If you don’t agree to this, you can opt-out by changing the settings in the “My Account” section of your Google Account.

You may request us to restrict the processing of your data if
