Collection of general information when you visit our website.

Nature and purpose of processing:

If you simply access our website, i.e. if you do not register or transmit any other information, we automatically store information of a general nature. This information (server log files) includes the type of web browser you use, the operating system you use, the domain name of your internet service provider, your IP address and similar information. It is processed, in particular, for the following purposes:

  • To ensure you don’t experience any problems connecting to our website.
  • To ensure you don’t experience any problems using our website.
  • To assess system security and stability.
  • Other administrative purposes.

The data cannot in any way be linked to you personally. We sometimes statistically evaluate this type of information to optimise our website and the underlying technology.

Legal basis

The data are processed in accordance with Art. 6 (1) f GDPR because this is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interest to improve the stability and function of our website.

Recipients:

Recipients of the data are, where appropriate, technical service providers who have been engaged by us to operate and maintain the website.

Storage period:

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. This is generally the case for the data used for the provision of the website when the respective session has ended.

Mandatory or necessary provision:

The provision of the aforementioned personal data is neither legally mandatory nor contractually necessary. However, without your IP address we cannot guarantee that you will be able to use our website services and functions. Restrictions on services are also possible as a result. For this reason you cannot object to providing the data.

Cookies

Nature and purpose of processing:

Like many other website operators we use “cookies” on our website. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website. They provide us with certain data such as your IP address, as well as the browser and operating system you use. Cookies cannot be used to activate programs or transmit viruses to your device. We use the information contained in the cookies to simplify your navigation of our website and to ensure that the content is correctly displayed to you. Under no circumstances do we transfer the collected data to third parties or link them to personal data without your consent. Naturally, you can also view our website without cookies. Most browsers are configured to automatically accept cookies. Generally, though, you can change the settings in your browser to reject cookies at any time. Please use your browser’s help function to find out how to change these settings. Please remember that you may not be able to use all the functions of this website to their full extent if you change your browser settings to prevent cookies from being saved.

Duration of storage and cookies used:

If you allow us to use cookies through your browser settings or consent, the following cookies may be used on our websites: Information about cookies that (also) contain personal data is provided below. You can change your browser settings to delete specific cookies or all cookies. Information and instructions on how to delete or prevent cookies from being stored are also provided.

Contact form

Nature and purpose of processing:

The data you provide are stored for the purpose of personal communication with you. In order to communicate with you we require a valid e-mail address and your name. We use this information to assign your enquiry to the correct recipient and respond to it. The provision of further data is optional.

Legal basis

The legal basis for use of the data entered in the contact form is a legitimate interest (Art. 6 (1) f GDPR). We have provided you with a contact form to simplify the process of contacting us. The information you provide will be used by us to process your enquiry and saved for future reference in case you have follow-up questions. If you contact us to request a quotation the data entered in the contact form are used for the purpose of taking steps prior to entering into a contract (Art. 6 (1) b GDPR).

Recipients:

The recipients of the data may be processors.

Storage period:

Data are erased 6 months at the latest after the enquiry has been processed. If a contract is entered into we are required to comply with the statutory archiving periods prescribed in the German Commercial Code (HGB). In this case the data are erased at the end of these periods.

Mandatory or necessary provision:

You provide your personal data on a voluntary basis. However, we can only process your enquiry if you tell us your name, e-mail address and the reason for your enquiry.

Use of script libraries (Google Web Fonts)

Nature and purpose of processing:

In order to display our content correctly and in a graphically appealing manner across browsers, we use “Google Web Fonts” provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter “Google”) to display fonts on this website. The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Legal basis

The legal basis for the integration of Google Web Fonts into the website and the associated transfer of data to Google is your consent (Art. 6 (1) a GDPR).

Recipients:

Calling up script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library operator. It is theoretically possible – although it is currently unclear whether and for what purposes – that the operator, in this case Google, collects data.

Storage period:

We do not collect any personal data as a result of the integration of Google Web Fonts. More information about Google Web Fonts is available at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in the Google privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

Transfer to third countries:

Google processes your data in the USA and is Privacy Shield-certified https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Mandatory or necessary provision:

The provision of personal data is neither legally mandatory nor contractually necessary. However, without providing personal data it may not be possible to correctly display the contents of standard fonts.

Revoking consent:

The JavaScript programming language is regularly used to display the content. You can therefore object to the data processing by deactivating the execution of JavaScript in your browser or by installing a JavaScript blocker plugin. Please note that this may result in limitation to the functioning of the website.

SSL encryption

To protect your data during transmissions we use state-of-the-art encryption processes (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS.

Amendment to our data protection provisions

We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy to ensure conformity at all times to the latest legal requirements, or to incorporate changes to our services into the privacy policy, e.g. when new services are introduced. The new privacy policy is then effective the next time you visit our website.
