Scope of application
This privacy statement explains to users the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the provider of this website. The legal basis of 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 respectively) collects data on each access to the offer (so-called server log files). The access data includes:
Name of the requested web page, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful retrieval, browser type plus version, the operating system of the user, referrer URL (previously visited page), IP address, and the requesting provider.
The provider uses the data for statistical analysis, for the purpose of business operations, safety and the optimisation of the offer. The provider retains the right, however, to check the log data at a later point if there is reasonable suspicion of unlawful use due to concrete indications.
Handling of personal data
Personal information is information that will help make a person identifiable, i.e., data that can be traced back to a person. This includes the name, email address or telephone number. However, data concerning preferences, hobbies, memberships or which web pages were viewed by someone are counted as personal data.
Personal data is only collected, used and passed on by the provider if permitted by law or by user consent to the data collection.
Getting in touch
When contacting the provider (for example via the contact form or e-mail) the details of the user are saved in order to process the request, and for the case that follow-up questions arise.
Integration of services and content of third parties
It is possible that within this online offer, third party content is integrated from other websites such as YouTube videos, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics. This always requires that the provider of such content (hereinafter referred to as "third party provider") acknowledges the IP address of the user. Without the IP address, they could not send the content to the browser of each user. The IP address is required in order to present this content. We strive to only use such content where the respective providers use the IP address for the delivery of the content only. However, we have no control over whether or not the third party stores the IP address for statistical purposes. Insofar as this is known to us, we will inform our users of this.
Cookies
Cookies are small files that make it possible to store specific device-related information on users' access devices (PCs, smartphones, etc.). They serve for the user-friendliness of web pages and thus the users (for example storage of login data). On the other hand, they serve to record the statistical data of the website usage and to be able to analyze it for the purpose of improving the offer. Users can influence the use of cookies. Most browsers have an option to restrict or completely prevent the storage of cookies. However, it is pointed out that the use and especially the comfort of use are limited without cookies.
You can find many online advertising cookies from companies through the US-American site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU page http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices / manage.
Disclaimer, changes, corrections and updates
The user has the right to obtain information free of charge about the personal data stored on them. In addition, the user has the right to correct inaccurate data, to have their personal data blocked and deleted, insofar as there is no legal obligation to retain this.
