2. Ge­ne­ral In­for­ma­ti­on and Man­da­to­ry In­for­ma­ti­on

Data Pro­tec­tion

The ope­ra­tors of the­se pa­ges take the pro­tec­tion of your per­so­nal data very se­rious­ly. We tre­at your per­so­nal data con­fi­den­ti­al­ly and in ac­cordance with sta­tu­to­ry data pro­tec­tion re­gu­la­ti­ons and this pri­va­cy po­li­cy.

When you use this web­site, va­rious ty­pes of per­so­nal data are coll­ec­ted. Per­so­nal data is data that can be used to per­so­nal­ly iden­ti­fy you. This pri­va­cy po­li­cy ex­plains what data we coll­ect and what we use it for. It also ex­plains how and for what pur­po­se this is done.

Plea­se note that data trans­mit­ted via the in­ter­net (e.g. when com­mu­ni­ca­ting by email) may be sub­ject to se­cu­ri­ty vul­nerabi­li­ties. Com­ple­te pro­tec­tion of data aga­inst ac­cess by third par­ties is not pos­si­ble.

Wi­th­dra­wal of Your Con­sent to Data Pro­ces­sing

Many data pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons are only pos­si­ble with your ex­pli­cit con­sent. You may wi­th­draw con­sent that you have al­re­a­dy gi­ven at any time. An in­for­mal no­ti­fi­ca­ti­on by email is suf­fi­ci­ent. The lawful­ness of the data pro­ces­sing car­ri­ed out pri­or to the wi­th­dra­wal re­mains un­af­fec­ted by the wi­th­dra­wal.

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

If data pro­ces­sing is car­ri­ed out on the ba­sis of Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time, on grounds re­la­ting to your par­ti­cu­lar si­tua­ti­on, to ob­ject to the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data; this also ap­pli­es to pro­fil­ing ba­sed on the­se pro­vi­si­ons. The re­spec­ti­ve le­gal ba­sis on which pro­ces­sing is ba­sed can be found in this pri­va­cy po­li­cy. If you ob­ject, we will no lon­ger pro­cess the per­so­nal data con­cer­ned un­less we can de­mons­tra­te com­pel­ling le­gi­ti­ma­te grounds for the pro­ces­sing that over­ri­de your in­te­rests, rights, and free­doms, or un­less the pro­ces­sing ser­ves the es­tab­lish­ment, exer­cise, or de­fence of le­gal claims (ob­jec­tion pur­su­ant to Art. 21(1) GDPR).

If your per­so­nal data is pro­ces­sed for the pur­po­se of di­rect mar­ke­ting, you have the right at any time to ob­ject to the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data con­cer­ning you for the pur­po­se of such mar­ke­ting; this also ap­pli­es to pro­fil­ing in­so­far as it is re­la­ted to such di­rect mar­ke­ting. If you ob­ject, your per­so­nal data will sub­se­quent­ly no lon­ger be used for di­rect mar­ke­ting pur­po­ses (ob­jec­tion pur­su­ant to Art. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Com­plaint with the Com­pe­tent Su­per­vi­so­ry Aut­ho­ri­ty

In the event 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 exists wi­t­hout pre­ju­di­ce to any other ad­mi­nis­tra­ti­ve or ju­di­cial re­me­dies.

Right to Data Por­ta­bi­li­ty

You have the right to have data that we pro­cess au­to­ma­ti­cal­ly on the ba­sis of your con­sent or in ful­film­ent of a con­tract pro­vi­ded to you or to a third par­ty in a com­mon­ly used, ma­chi­ne-re­a­da­ble for­mat. If you re­quest the di­rect trans­fer of the data to an­o­ther con­trol­ler, this will only be car­ri­ed out in­so­far as it is tech­ni­cal­ly fe­a­si­ble.

SSL or TLS En­cryp­ti­on

For se­cu­ri­ty re­asons and to pro­tect the trans­mis­si­on of con­fi­den­ti­al con­tent, such as or­ders or en­qui­ries that you send to us as the web­site ope­ra­tor, this web­site uses SSL or TLS en­cryp­ti­on. You can re­co­gni­se an en­cryp­t­ed con­nec­tion by the fact that the brow­ser's ad­dress bar ch­an­ges from "http://" to "https://" and by the pad­lock sym­bol in your brow­ser bar.

If SSL or TLS en­cryp­ti­on is ac­ti­va­ted, the data you trans­mit to us can­not be read by third par­ties.

Ac­cess, Blo­cking, De­le­ti­on, and Cor­rec­tion

Wi­thin the frame­work of the ap­pli­ca­ble sta­tu­to­ry pro­vi­si­ons, you have the right at any time and free of char­ge to ob­tain in­for­ma­ti­on about your stored per­so­nal data, its ori­gin and re­ci­pi­en­ts, and the pur­po­se of the data pro­ces­sing, as well as, whe­re ap­pli­ca­ble, the right to have this data cor­rec­ted, blo­cked, or de­le­ted. For this pur­po­se, as well as for any fur­ther ques­ti­ons re­gar­ding per­so­nal data, you may cont­act us at any time at the ad­dress pro­vi­ded in the le­gal no­ti­ce.

Right to Rest­ric­tion of Pro­ces­sing

You have the right to re­quest rest­ric­tion of the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data. You may cont­act us at any time at the ad­dress pro­vi­ded in the le­gal no­ti­ce for this pur­po­se. The right to rest­ric­tion of pro­ces­sing exists in the fol­lo­wing ca­ses:

  • If you dis­pu­te the ac­cu­ra­cy of your per­so­nal data stored by us, we ge­ne­ral­ly re­qui­re time to ve­ri­fy this. For the du­ra­ti­on of the ve­ri­fi­ca­ti­on, you have the right to re­quest rest­ric­tion of the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data.
  • If the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data was/is un­lawful, you may re­quest rest­ric­tion of data pro­ces­sing in­s­tead of de­le­ti­on.
  • If we no lon­ger re­qui­re your per­so­nal data, but you need it for the exer­cise, de­fence, or es­tab­lish­ment of le­gal claims, you have the right to re­quest rest­ric­tion of the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data in­s­tead of de­le­ti­on.
  • If you have ob­jec­ted pur­su­ant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a ba­lan­cing of your in­te­rests and ours must be car­ri­ed out. As long as it has not yet been de­ter­mi­ned who­se in­te­rests pre­vail, you have the right to re­quest rest­ric­tion of the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data.

If you have rest­ric­ted the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data, such data may – apart from be­ing stored – only be pro­ces­sed with your con­sent or for the es­tab­lish­ment, exer­cise, or de­fence of le­gal claims, for the pro­tec­tion of the rights of an­o­ther na­tu­ral or le­gal per­son, or for re­asons of im­portant pu­blic in­te­rest of the Eu­ro­pean Uni­on or a Mem­ber Sta­te.

Ob­jec­tion to Pro­mo­tio­nal Emails

The use of cont­act de­tails pu­blished as part of the le­gal no­ti­ce ob­li­ga­ti­on for the pur­po­se of sen­ding un­so­li­ci­ted ad­ver­ti­sing and in­for­ma­tio­nal ma­te­ri­als is her­eby ob­jec­ted to. The ope­ra­tors of the web­site ex­press­ly re­ser­ve the right to take le­gal ac­tion in the event of un­so­li­ci­ted ad­ver­ti­sing in­for­ma­ti­on be­ing sent, for ex­am­p­le th­rough spam emails.

3. Data Coll­ec­tion on Our Web­site

When using our ap­pli­ca­ti­on, a so-cal­led JWT (JSON Web To­ken) is set. This is a small text file that is stored on your de­vice.

The JWTs used ser­ve so­le­ly to en­su­re cer­tain tech­ni­cal func­tion­a­li­ties and to enable API rou­tes, for ex­am­p­le for log­ging into the pro­tec­ted area of our web­site. The le­gal ba­sis for this is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR and Sec­tion 25(2) No. 2 TT­DSG. Our le­gi­ti­ma­te in­te­rest lies in en­su­ring the func­tion­a­li­ty of our web­site and its tech­ni­cal usa­bi­li­ty.

The JWT to­kens are stored on your de­vice for as long as is ne­ces­sa­ry for the tech­ni­cal ope­ra­ti­on of our web­site. Short-li­ved to­kens are up­dated ap­pro­xi­m­ate­ly every 5 mi­nu­tes, while long-li­ved to­kens re­main va­lid for 30 days and are used to ge­ne­ra­te new short-li­ved to­kens. The to­kens re­main in the brow­ser's "Lo­cal Sto­rage" un­til you log out or de­li­bera­te­ly de­le­te them.

Ser­ver Log Files

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

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

This data is not com­bi­ned with data from other sources.

This data is coll­ec­ted on the ba­sis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The web­site ope­ra­tor has a le­gi­ti­ma­te in­te­rest in the tech­ni­cal­ly er­ror-free pre­sen­ta­ti­on and op­ti­mi­sa­ti­on of the web­site – for this pur­po­se, the ser­ver log files must be coll­ec­ted.

Cont­act Form

If you send us en­qui­ries via the cont­act form, the in­for­ma­ti­on you pro­vi­de in the en­qui­ry form, in­clu­ding the cont­act de­tails you en­ter the­re, will be stored by us for the pur­po­se of pro­ces­sing your en­qui­ry and in the event of fol­low-up ques­ti­ons. We do not share this data wi­t­hout your con­sent.

The pro­ces­sing of the data en­te­red into the cont­act form is the­r­e­fo­re car­ri­ed out ex­clu­si­ve­ly on the ba­sis of your con­sent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may wi­th­draw this con­sent at any time. An in­for­mal no­ti­fi­ca­ti­on by email is suf­fi­ci­ent. The lawful­ness of the data pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons car­ri­ed out pri­or to wi­th­dra­wal re­mains un­af­fec­ted by the wi­th­dra­wal.

The data you en­ter into the cont­act form will re­main with us un­til you re­quest its de­le­ti­on, wi­th­draw your con­sent to its sto­rage, or the pur­po­se for sto­ring the data no lon­ger ap­pli­es (e.g. af­ter your en­qui­ry has been ful­ly pro­ces­sed). Man­da­to­ry sta­tu­to­ry pro­vi­si­ons – in par­ti­cu­lar re­ten­ti­on pe­ri­ods – re­main un­af­fec­ted.

Sto­rage of the IP Ad­dress

Our com­ment func­tion stores the IP ad­dres­ses of users who post comm­ents. Sin­ce we do not re­view comm­ents on our web­site be­fo­re they are pu­blished, we re­qui­re this data in or­der to be able to take ac­tion aga­inst the aut­hor in the event of le­gal vio­la­ti­ons such as in­sults or pro­pa­gan­da.

Plug­ins and Tools

You­Tube with Enhan­ced Pri­va­cy

Our web­site uses plug­ins from the You­Tube web­site. The ope­ra­tor of the pa­ges is You­Tube, LLC, 901 Cher­ry Ave., San Bru­no, CA 94066, USA.

We use You­Tube in enhan­ced pri­va­cy mode. Ac­cor­ding to You­Tube, this mode me­ans that You­Tube does not store in­for­ma­ti­on about vi­si­tors to this web­site be­fo­re they watch the vi­deo. Ho­we­ver, the trans­fer of data to You­Tube part­ners is not ne­ces­s­a­ri­ly ex­cluded by enhan­ced pri­va­cy mode. For ex­am­p­le, re­gard­less of whe­ther you watch a vi­deo, You­Tube es­tab­lishes a con­nec­tion to the Goog­le Dou­ble­Click net­work.

As soon as you start a You­Tube vi­deo on our web­site, a con­nec­tion to You­Tube's ser­vers is es­tab­lished. The You­Tube ser­ver is in­for­med which of our pa­ges you have vi­si­ted. If you are log­ged into your You­Tube ac­count, you al­low You­Tube to as­so­cia­te your brow­sing be­ha­viour di­rect­ly with your per­so­nal pro­fi­le. You can pre­vent this by log­ging out of your You­Tube ac­count.

Fur­ther­mo­re, af­ter a vi­deo is star­ted, You­Tube may store va­rious coo­kies on your de­vice. With the help of the­se coo­kies, You­Tube can ob­tain in­for­ma­ti­on about vi­si­tors to our web­site. This in­for­ma­ti­on is used, among other things, to coll­ect vi­deo sta­tis­tics, im­pro­ve user-fri­end­li­ne­ss, and pre­vent at­temp­t­ed fraud. The coo­kies re­main on your de­vice un­til you de­le­te them.

Af­ter a You­Tube vi­deo is star­ted, ad­di­tio­nal data pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons may be trig­ge­red over which we have no con­trol.

The use of You­Tube is ba­sed on your con­sent pur­su­ant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Fur­ther in­for­ma­ti­on about data pro­tec­tion at You­Tube can be found in its pri­va­cy po­li­cy at: https://www.you­tube.com/t/pri­va­cy_at_you­tube.

If you vi­sit one of our pa­ges that con­ta­ins a Vi­meo plug­in, a con­nec­tion to Vi­me­o's ser­vers is es­tab­lished. The Vi­meo ser­ver is in­for­med which of our pa­ges you have vi­si­ted. Vi­meo also ob­ta­ins your IP ad­dress. This also ap­pli­es if you are not log­ged into Vi­meo or do not have a Vi­meo ac­count. The in­for­ma­ti­on coll­ec­ted by Vi­meo is trans­mit­ted to the Vi­meo ser­ver in the USA.

If you are log­ged into your Vi­meo ac­count, you al­low Vi­meo to as­so­cia­te your brow­sing be­ha­viour di­rect­ly with your per­so­nal pro­fi­le. You can pre­vent this by log­ging out of your Vi­meo ac­count.

The use of Vi­meo is ba­sed on your con­sent pur­su­ant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
