We only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary to fulfill a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., passing on data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer.

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected.


Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct advertising (Article 21 GDPR)

If data processing is based on Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) of the GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons related to your particular situation; 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 your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing purposes; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with 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, place of work, or place of the alleged violation. This right of complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.


Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.

You can contact us at any time with any questions about this or other issues relating to personal data.


Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to do so. 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 need time to verify this. You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted while we verify your claim.
  • If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of deleted.
  • If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, your interests must be weighed against ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

  • If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may – with the exception of its storage – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.


    SSL or TLS encryption

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

    4. Data collection on this website

    Cookies

    Our website uses so-called "cookies." Cookies are small data packets and do not cause any damage to your device. They are stored either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.


    Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain third-party services within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).


    Cookies serve various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website features would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to evaluate user behavior or for advertising purposes.


    Cookies that are required to carry out electronic communication, to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g. for the shopping cart function) or to optimize the website (e.g. cookies to measure web audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, processing will take place exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG); this consent can be revoked at any time.

When you visit our website, a connection is established to Cookiebot's servers in order to obtain your consent and other declarations regarding the use of cookies. Cookiebot then stores a cookie in your browser in order to be able to assign the consent given or its revocation to you. The data collected in this way is stored until you request us to delete it, delete the Cookiebot cookie yourself, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected. Cookiebot is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR.

In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR), if requested; consent can be revoked at any time.


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


      Inquiry by email, telephone or fax

      If you contact us by email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not share this data without your consent.

      5. Analysis tools and advertising

      Google Tag Manager

      We use Google Tag Manager, provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

      Google Tag Manager is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the quick and uncomplicated integration and management of various tools on its website. If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG.

      Google Analytics

      This website uses features of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

      Google Analytics enables website operators to analyze the behavior of website visitors. This provides the website operator with various usage data, such as page views, length of stay, operating systems used, and user origin. This data is summarized in a user ID and assigned to the respective device of the website visitor.


      Furthermore, Google Analytics allows us to record your mouse and scroll movements, clicks, and more. Furthermore, Google Analytics uses various modeling approaches to supplement the collected data sets and employs machine learning technologies for data analysis.


      Google Analytics uses technologies that enable user recognition for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g., cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.


      The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. This consent can be revoked at any time.

      IP anonymization

      Google Analytics IP anonymization is activated.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

      Google Ads

      The website operator uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising program provided by Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.


      Google Ads enables us to display advertisements in the Google search engine or on third-party websites when the user enters certain search terms into Google (keyword targeting). Furthermore, targeted advertisements can be displayed based on user data available to Google (e.g., location data and interests) (audience targeting).

      Consent can be revoked at any time. Data transfer to the USA is based on the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses. Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://business.safety.google/controllerterms/.

      With Google Ads Remarketing, we can assign people who interact with our online offering to specific target groups in order to then display interest-based advertising to them in the Google advertising network (remarketing or retargeting).


      Furthermore, the advertising target groups created with Google Ads Remarketing can be linked to Google's cross-device features. This allows interest-based, personalized advertising messages tailored to you based on your previous usage and browsing behavior on one device (e.g., mobile phone) to also be displayed on another of your devices (e.g., tablet or PC).


      If you have a Google Account, you can opt out of personalized advertising using the following link: https://adssettings.google.com/anonymous?hl=de.


      The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. This consent can be revoked at any time.

      Target group formation with customer matching

      To build target groups, we use, among other things, customer matching from Google Ads Remarketing. This involves transferring certain customer data (e.g., email addresses) from our customer lists to Google. If the relevant customers are Google users and logged into their Google account, they will be shown suitable advertising messages within the Google network (e.g., on YouTube, Gmail, or in the search engine).


      Google Conversion Tracking

      This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.


      With the help of Google Conversion Tracking, we and Google can recognize whether the user has performed certain actions. For example, we can evaluate which buttons on our website were clicked and how often, and which products were viewed or purchased most frequently. This information is used to compile conversion statistics. We learn the total number of users who clicked on our ads and what actions they performed. We do not receive any information that could personally identify the user. Google itself uses cookies or similar recognition technologies for identification.


      The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. This consent can be revoked at any time.

      6. Plugins and tools


      Google Web Fonts (local hosting)

      This site uses so-called Google Fonts, provided by Google, for the consistent display of fonts. Google Fonts are installed locally. There is no connection to Google servers.


      For more information about Google Fonts, see https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.


      OpenStreetMap

      We use the map service of OpenStreetMap (OSM).

      We integrate maps from OpenStreetMap on the server of the OpenStreetMap Foundation, St John's Innovation Centre, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is considered a secure third country in terms of data protection. This means that the UK has a level of data protection equivalent to that in the European Union. When you use OpenStreetMap maps, a connection is established to the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation. This may include your IP address and other information about your behavior on this website being forwarded to the OSMF. OpenStreetMap may store cookies in your browser or use similar recognition technologies for this purpose.

      OpenStreetMap is used in the interest of providing an appealing presentation of our online offerings and making the locations we list on our website easy to find. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing will be carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time.


      Google reCAPTCHA

      We use "Google reCAPTCHA" (hereinafter "reCAPTCHA") on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.


      reCAPTCHA is designed to verify whether the data entered on this website (e.g., in a contact form) is entered by a human or by an automated program. To do so, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g., IP address, length of time the website visitor spends on the website, or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.

      Facebook

      Our website uses plug-ins from the social network Facebook. Facebook is an internet service provided by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. In the EU, this service is operated by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland, hereinafter referred to as "Facebook."

      https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active

      Facebook guarantees that EU data protection regulations will also be complied with when processing data in the USA.
      The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in improving the quality of our website.
      Further information about the possible plug-ins and their respective functions can be found on Facebook at
      https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/ ready for you.

      If the plug-in is stored on one of the pages of our website you visit, your internet browser will download a representation of the plug-in from Facebook's servers in the USA. For technical reasons, it is necessary for Facebook to process your IP address. In addition, the date and time of your visit to our website will also be recorded.

      If you are logged in to Facebook while visiting one of our websites containing the plug-in, the information collected by the plug-in about your specific visit will be recognized by Facebook. Facebook may assign the information collected in this way to your personal user account there. For example, if you use the Facebook "Like" button, this information will be stored in your Facebook user account and possibly published via the Facebook platform. If you want to prevent this, you must either log out of Facebook before visiting our website or use an add-on for your internet browser to prevent the Facebook plug-in from loading.

      Further information about the collection and use of data as well as your rights and protection options in this regard can be found at:

      Handling applicant data

      We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g., by email, post, or via an online application form). Below, we will inform you about the scope, purpose, and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing, and use of your data will be carried out in compliance with applicable data protection laws and all other legal provisions, and that your data will be treated with the strictest confidentiality.


      Scope and purpose of data collection

      If you send us an application, we will process your associated personal data (e.g., contact and communication details, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (general contract initiation), and – if you have given your consent – Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. This consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to people involved in processing your application.

      If your application is successful, the data you submit will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.


      Data retention period

      If we are unable to make you a job offer, if you reject a job offer, or if you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have submitted for up to six months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application) on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). The data will then be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. This retention period serves primarily for evidential purposes in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the six-month period has expired (e.g. due to impending or pending legal proceedings), it will only be deleted when the purpose for further retention no longer applies. Longer retention may also occur if you have given your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR) or if statutory retention periods prevent deletion.


      Inclusion in the applicant pool

      If we don't offer you a job, you may be included in our applicant pool. If you are accepted, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool so that we can contact you if suitable vacancies arise.


      Inclusion in the applicant pool is based solely on your express consent (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). Providing your consent is voluntary and has no connection to the ongoing application process. The data subject may withdraw his consent at any timeIn this case, the data will be irrevocably deleted from the applicant pool unless there are legal reasons for retention.

      The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been given.
