The legal basis for data protection can be found in the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the Telemedia Act (TMG).
Access data/ server log files
The provider (or its web space provider) collects data about every access to the website (so-called server log files). The access data includes

Name of the website accessed, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address and the requesting provider.

The provider uses the log data only for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operation, security and optimization of the offer. However, the provider reserves the right to check the log data retrospectively if there is a justified suspicion of unlawful use based on concrete evidence.

Handling of personal data

You can trust us with your personal data! They are encrypted by digital security systems and transmitted to us. Our websites are protected by technical measures against damage, destruction or unauthorized access.
It is generally possible to use our website without providing personal data. If personal data (e.g. name, address or e-mail addresses) is collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. If a contractual relationship between you and us is to be established, developed or amended, or if you send us an inquiry, we collect and use your personal data insofar as this is necessary for these purposes (inventory data). We collect, process and use personal data insofar as this is necessary to enable you to use the website (usage data). All personal data is only stored for as long as is necessary for the stated purpose (processing your request or processing a contract). Retention periods under tax and commercial law are taken into account here. By order of the competent authorities, we may provide information about this data (inventory data) in individual cases, insofar as this is necessary for the purposes of criminal prosecution, to avert danger, to fulfill a contract or for the purpose of the processing of a request.

Comments and posts

When users leave comments in the blog or other posts, their IP addresses are stored. This is done for the security of the provider in case someone writes illegal content in comments and posts (insults, prohibited political propaganda, etc.). In this case, the provider itself can be prosecuted for the comment or post and is therefore interested in the identity of the author.

You also have the right to have your personal data corrected, blocked or, apart from the prescribed data storage for business transactions, deleted. Please contact our data protection officer.

Integration of third-party services and content

It may happen that third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites are integrated into this online offering. This always presupposes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") are aware of the user's IP address. This is because without the IP address, they would not be able to send the content to the respective user's browser. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. We endeavor to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, we have no influence on whether the third-party providers store the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. Insofar as we are aware of this, we will inform users accordingly.

This data cannot be assigned to specific persons. This data is not merged with other data sources. The provider uses the log data only for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operation, security and optimization of the offer. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use.

We use the "Google Maps" component of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as "Google", on our website. Every time the "Google Maps" component is called up, Google sets a cookie to process user settings and data when the page on which the "Google Maps" component is integrated is displayed. As a rule, this cookie is not deleted when the browser is closed, but expires after a certain period of time, unless you delete it manually beforehand. if you do not agree to this processing of your data, you have the option of deactivating the "Google Maps" service and thus preventing the transfer of data to Google.

Use of Facebook social plugins

This website uses social plugins ("plugins") from the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook").

These plugins can be recognized by one of the Facebook logos (white "f" on a blue tile, the terms "Like", "Gefällt mir" or a "thumbs up" sign) or are marked with the addition "Facebook Social Plugin". The full list and appearance of the Facebook social plugins can be viewed here: developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

Users who access a web page fo this website containing such a plugin establish

a direct connection with the Facebook servers. The contents of the plugin are transmitted by Facebook directly to the user’s browser and integrated into the website. Therefore, the provider has no influence on the scope of data collected by Facebook with the help of this plugin and therefore informs users according to his level of knowledge:

By embedding the plugins, Facebook receives notification of a user having accessed the corresponding page of the website. Users who are logged in to Facebook can have the visit being assigned to their Facebook account. Users who interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the Like button or posting a comment, will have the corresponding information transmitted directly from their browser to Facebook and stored there.

Nevertheless, if a user is not a member of Facebook, it is still possible for Facebook to find out and store their IP address. According to Facebook, only an anonymized IP address is stored in Germany.

Purpose and scope of data collection and further processing and use of this data by Facebook as well as the related rights and setting options to protect the privacy of users can be found in Facebook's data protection information: www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

Users who are Facebook members and do not want Facebook to collect data about them via this website and to link it to their membership data stored on Facebook must log out of Facebook before visiting the website.
