Notice Regarding Data Transfer to Third Countries Not Providing Adequate Data Protection and the Transfer to U.S. Companies Not Certified Under the DPF

We use tools from companies based in third countries that do not provide adequate data protection and from U.S. companies that are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. We point out that in third countries with inadequate data protection, no equivalent level of data protection comparable to the EU can be guaranteed.

We point out that the U.S. generally provides a level of data protection comparable to the EU as a safe third country. A data transfer to the U.S. is permissible if the recipient holds a certification under the "EU-US Data Privacy Framework" (DPF) or has appropriate additional guarantees. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.

Recipients of Personal Data

As part of our business activities, we collaborate with various external entities. In some cases, the transfer of personal data to these external entities is necessary. We only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary for contract fulfillment, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., passing data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest under Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in the transfer, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using processors, we pass on personal data of our customers only based on a valid contract for data processing. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke any consent given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 PARA. 1 LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME, FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RELEVANT LEGAL BASIS FOR A PROCESSING IS PROVIDED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING PROTECTIVE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERWHELM YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21 PARA. 1 GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR SUCH MARKETING PURPOSES AT ANY TIME; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING IN SO FAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21 PARA. 2 GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In case of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive data that we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit it to another controller. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only take place to the extent technically feasible.

Access, Rectification, and Deletion

You have the right to request free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if applicable, a right to rectification or deletion of this data, in accordance with applicable legal provisions. For this and further questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to exercise this right. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data we have stored about you, we usually need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was unlawful, you can request the restriction of processing instead of the deletion of your data.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing instead of deletion.
If you have lodged an objection under Article 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your and our interests. As long as it is not clear whose interests outweigh, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – except for its storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

4. Data Collection on This Website

Cookies

Our websites use so-called "cookies." Cookies are small data packets and do not harm your device. They are either temporarily stored for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit. Persistent cookies remain on your device until you delete them or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser.

Cookies may come from us (first-party cookies) or from third parties (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain third-party services within websites (e.g., cookies for payment services).

Cookies serve various purposes. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies may be used to evaluate user behavior or for advertising purposes.

Cookies that are necessary for conducting the electronic communication process, providing certain functions you request (e.g., the shopping cart function), or optimizing the website (e.g., cookies to measure web audience) are stored based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is provided. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of their services. If consent for storing cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively based on this consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG); the consent can be revoked at any time.

You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in specific cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

The cookies and services used on this website can be found in this privacy policy.

Server Log Files

The provider of the site collects and stores information automatically in so-called server log files, which your browser transmits to us automatically. These are:

Browser type and version
Operating system used
Referrer URL
Hostname of the accessing computer
Time of the server request
IP address

These data are not combined with other data sources.

The collection of this data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of their website – to do so, the server log files must be collected.

Contact Form

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

The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, provided your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling the inquiries addressed to us (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) if it was requested; consent can be revoked at any time.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after the processing of your inquiry is completed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Inquiries via E-Mail, Phone, or Fax

If you contact us via e-mail, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all personal data arising from it (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not share this data without your consent.

The data you send us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after the processing of your inquiry is completed). Mandatory legal provisions – especially statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

5. Newsletter

Newsletter Data

If you want to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we need an e-mail address from you, as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified e-mail address and that you agree to receive the newsletter. No additional data will be collected unless voluntarily provided. We will use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and will not share it with third parties.

The processing of the data entered in the newsletter registration form is exclusively based on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address, and its use for sending the newsletter at any time, e.g., through the "unsubscribe" link in the newsletter. The lawfulness of the data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

The data you provided for receiving the newsletter will remain with us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter or the purpose of the data storage no longer applies. After unsubscribing from the newsletter or upon expiration of the purpose, the data will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list. We reserve the right to delete or block e-mail addresses from our newsletter distribution list at our discretion within our legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Data stored for other purposes will remain unaffected.

After unsubscribing from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist if necessary to prevent future mailings. Data from the blacklist will be used solely for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your and our interest in ensuring compliance with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest in the sense of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). The storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.
