The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. Therefore, we treat your personal data confidentially and per this data protection declaration's statutory data protection regulations.

In cooperation with our hosting providers, we strive to protect the databases and possibly from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or falsification.

We want to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. Therefore, complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.

In doing so, data such as pages called up or the name of the file called up, date, and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without this data being directly related to your person. Personal data, in particular name, address, or e-mail address, are collected voluntarily as far as possible. The data will not be pass to third parties without your consent.

 

Privacy policy for cookies

Data protection declaration for SSL / TLS encryption

This website uses SSL / TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the inquiries that you send to us as the website operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection because the address line of the browser changes from "HTTP: //" to "HTTPS: //" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If the SSL or TLS encryption is activated, third parties will not read the data you transmit to us.

Data protection declaration for Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Ireland Limited. Suppose the person responsible for data processing on this website is outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland. In that case, Google Analytics data processing is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are from now on referred to as "Google."

We can use the statistics obtained to improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics for a cross-device analysis of visitor flows, which is carried out via a user ID. If you have a Google user account, you can deactivate the cross-device analysis of your usage in the settings there under "My data," "Personal data."

The legal basis for using Google Analytics is Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter f of the GDPR. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. We would like to point out that on this website, Google Analytics has added the code «_anonymizeIp (),» which has been extended to ensure an anonymous collection of IP addresses. As a result, IP addresses are further processed in abbreviated form so that personal references can be ruled out. For example, suppose the data collected about you can be linked to a person. In that case, this will be excluded immediately, and the personal data will be deleted immediately.

The full IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case, you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. Therefore, you can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and processing this data by Google by downloading the browser plugin available under the following link and install: Deactivate Google Analytics.

You can also prevent the use of Google Analytics by clicking on this link: Deactivate Google Analytics. This saves a so-called opt-out cookie on your data carrier, which prevents the processing of personal data by Google Analytics. Please note that if you delete all cookies on your device, these opt-out cookies will also be deleted, i.e., you will have to set the opt-out cookies again if you want to continue to prevent this form of data collection. The opt-out cookies are set per browser and computer/device. Therefore, they must be activated separately for each browser, computer, or device.
