The extent and nature of the collection and use of your data varies depending on whether you only visit our website to request information or to make use of the services we offer.
If we want to use commissioned service providers for individual functions of our offer or use your data for advertising purposes, we will inform you in detail about the respective processes described below. It goes without saying that we have carefully selected the service providers. Otherwise, your data will only be passed on to other third parties if we are legally obliged to do so.
If you use our website for informative purposes only, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we only collect the data that your browser sends to our server (so-called "server log files"). When you call up our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to be able to display the website:
The processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 paragraph 1 letter f DSGVO on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data will only be passed on or used for other purposes as described below. However, we reserve the right to check the server log files afterwards if concrete indications of illegal use are found.
In order to make visiting our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages. These are small text files that are stored on your end device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted after the end of the browser session, i.e. after closing your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your end device and enable us or our partner companies to recognize your browser the next time you visit us (permanent cookies). When cookies are placed, they collect and process certain user information to an individual degree, such as browser and location data and IP addresses. Permanent cookies are automatically deleted after a certain period of time, which may vary depending on the cookie.
In some cases, cookies are used to simplify the ordering process by saving settings (for example, remembering the contents of a virtual shopping cart for a later visit to the website). To the extent that personal data are also processed by means of individual cookies implemented by us, the processing is carried out in accordance with art. 6 paragraph 1 letter b DSGVO, either for the execution of the agreement or in accordance with art. 6 paragraph 1 letter f DSGVO to protect our legitimate interests in the best possible functionality of the website and a customer friendly and effective design of the visit to the site.
You can set your browser to notify you when cookies are placed and to allow you to decide whether to accept them or not in certain cases or in general. Each browser differs in the way it manages cookie settings. This is described in each browser's help menu, which explains how to change your cookie settings.
