Temporary processing of the IP address by the system is necessary to technically enable the website to be delivered to your computer. Processing your IP address for the duration of the session is required. The legal basis for such processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.
The access data is not used to identify individual users and is not merged with other data sources. The access data are deleted when they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose of their processing. In the case of collecting the data to provide the website, this is the case when you end your visit to the website.
IP addresses are stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website.

An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context either. in general, the data will be deleted after seven days at the latest; further processing is possible in individual cases. In this case, the IP address is deleted or so alienated that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the processing of data in log files is necessary for the operation of the website. You may object to the processing. In the event of your justified objection, we will examine the situation and either stop or adjust data processing or point out to you our compelling reasons worthy of protection, based on which we will continue processing.

In addition to the access data, so-called cookies are stored in the Internet browser of the terminal device you are using when using the website. These are small text files with a sequence of numbers that are stored locally in the cache of the browser used. Cookies do not become part of the PC system and cannot execute programs. They serve to make our website user-friendly. The use of cookies may be technically necessary or may be used for other purposes (e.g. analysis/evaluation of website use).
Some elements of our website require that the calling browser can be identified even after a page change. The following data is processed in the cookies:
The user data collected by technically necessary cookies are not processed to create user profiles. We also use “session cookies”, which store a session ID that can be used to assign various requests from your browser to the shared session. Session cookies are necessary to use the website.

HubSpot is a service with which the newsletter dispatch can be organized and analyzed. The data you enter for newsletter subscription (e.g. e-mail address) will be processed on HubSpot’s servers in the USA. HubSpot has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.
Our newsletters sent out with HubSpot enable us to analyse the behaviour of newsletter recipients. Among other things, it is possible to analyze how many recipients have opened the newsletter message and how often which link was clicked in the newsletter. With the help of the so-called conversion tracking it can also be analyzed whether a pre-defined action (e.g. purchase of a product on our website) has taken place after clicking on the link in the newsletter.
The evaluation of the information mentioned serves to recognize the reading habits of the recipients to be able to adapt and scatter our newsletter contents accordingly better. The legal basis of the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. We process this data until two years after termination of the contract. If the newsletter registration takes place outside a contract conclusion, we process these data up to the expiration of two years after termination of the use procedure.

Integration of third-party content
The website includes third-party content such as videos, maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites. This integration always requires that the providers of this content (“third party providers”) perceive the IP addresses of the users. Because without the IP address they cannot send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore required for the display of this content.
We make every effort to use only content from third parties who process the IP address solely for the purpose of delivering the content. However, we have no influence on this if the third-party providers process the IP addresses, e.g. for statistical purposes. As far as we know, we will explain them below.
Some of these third parties may process data outside the European Union.
You can object by installing a JavaScript blocker such as the browser plugin’NoScript’ (www.noscript.net ) or deactivating JavaScript in your browser.
However, this can lead to functional restrictions on the website.

In the event of your justified objection, we will examine the situation and either discontinue or adapt the data processing or point out to you our compelling reasons for protection, based on which we will continue the processing.
Google Tag Manager
We use the Google Tag Manager on our website. Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows marketers to manage website tags through a single interface.

Only if you click on the marked field and thereby activate it, the plug-in provider will be informed that you have accessed the corresponding website of our online offer. In addition, the data specified in the “Access data” section are transmitted.

The data is transferred regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in with the plug-in provider, your data collected with us will be directly assigned to your existing account with the plug-in provider. If you click the activated button and, for example, link the page, the plug-in provider also stores this information in your user account and shares it publicly with your contacts.
We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, especially before activating the button, as this allows you to avoid being assigned to your profile with the plug-in provider.
