​
​
2. Transfer of Personal Data
​
Your data will not be transmitted to third parties for purposes other than those listed below.
We only share your data with third parties if:
-
You have given express consent to do so according to (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR),
-
This is necessary for the execution of contractual relationships with you (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR),
-
There is a legal obligation to transfer the data (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c GDPR),
-
The transfer is necessary for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding legitimate interest in not having your data transferred (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR).
​
In these cases, however, the scope of transmitted data is limited to the necessary minimum.
​
Our privacy policy is in accordance with applicable data protection regulations and the data is only processed in the Federal Republic of Germany / European Union. No transfer to third countries takes place and is not intended.
​
​
3. Data Subject Rights
​
Upon request, we will gladly inform you whether and which personal data about you is stored (Art. 15 GDPR), in particular about the processing purposes, the category of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, deletion, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right to lodge a complaint, the origin of your data if it was not collected from us, as well as the existence of automated decision-making including profiling.
​
You also have the right to have any incorrectly collected personal data corrected or incompletely collected data completed (Art. 16 GDPR). Furthermore, you have the right to demand that we restrict the processing of your data, provided the legal requirements are met (Art. 18 GDPR).

​
​
6. Online Marketing / Analysis Tools
​
The tracking measures we use are carried out on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR, § 15 Para. 3 TMG. With the tracking measures used, we want to ensure needs-based design and continuous optimization of our website. On the other hand, we use tracking measures to statistically record the use of our website and for the purpose of evaluating and optimizing our internet presence. These interests are to be regarded as legitimate within the meaning of the aforementioned provision.
​
Google Analytics For the purpose of needs-based design and continuous optimization of our websites, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (https://www.google.de/intl/de/about/) (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter "Google"). In this context, pseudonymized user profiles are created and cookies are set (see also under Section 5). The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website, such as browser type/version, operating system used, referrer URL (the previously visited page), hostname of the accessing computer (IP address) and the time of the server request, are transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activities, and to provide other services related to website usage and internet usage for the purposes of market research and needs-based design of these websites. Our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is § 15 Para. 3 TMG in conjunction with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
​
This information may also be transferred to third parties if required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf. In no case will your IP address be merged with other Google data. IP addresses are anonymized so that assignment is not possible (so-called IP masking).
​
The data sent by us and linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g., User ID) or advertising IDs are automatically deleted after 14 months. Data whose retention period has been reached is automatically deleted once a month. More detailed information on Google Analytics' terms of use and data protection can be found at www.google.com/analytics/terms/de or at www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/privacyoverview.
​
You can prevent the installation and storage of cookies through an appropriate setting of your browser software; however, we point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent collection by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set that prevents future collection of your data when visiting this website: Deactivate Google Analytics. The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you delete cookies in this browser, you must set the opt-out cookie again.
​
Google Adwords / Conversion Tracking We also use the online advertising program "Google AdWords" and conversion tracking within Google AdWords. Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service provided by Google. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is placed on your device. These cookies expire after 30 days, do not contain personal data, and therefore do not serve personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Therefore, there is no possibility that cookies can be tracked across AdWords customer websites. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that can personally identify users. Our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes. The legal basis for the use of Google Adwords/Conversion Tracking is § 15 Para. 3 TMG in conjunction with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
​
If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies from the domain "googleadservices.com" through an appropriate setting of your browser software (deactivation option). You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. Further information and Google's privacy policy can be found at: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/, https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.
​
Meta Pixel (formerly Facebook Pixel) This website uses the visitor action pixel from Facebook/Meta for conversion measurement. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. According to Facebook, however, the collected data is also transferred to the USA and other third countries.
​
This allows the behavior of page visitors to be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This allows the effectiveness of Facebook ads to be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising measures to be optimized.
​
The collected data is anonymous for us as operators of this website; we cannot draw conclusions about the identity of users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook, so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible, and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with the Facebook Data Use Policy (https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/). This allows Facebook to enable the placement of ads on Facebook pages as well as outside of Facebook. This use of data cannot be influenced by us as page operators.
​
The use of this service is based on your consent according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 Para. 1 TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.
We use the advanced matching function within the Meta Pixel. Advanced matching enables us to transmit various types of data (e.g., place of residence, state, postal code, hashed email addresses, names, gender, date of birth, or telephone number) of our customers and prospects that we collect via our website to Meta (Facebook). By activating this, we can tailor our advertising campaigns on Facebook even more precisely to people who are interested in our offers. Advanced matching also improves the attribution of website conversions and expands Custom Audiences.
​
Insofar as personal data is collected on our website with the help of the tool described here and forwarded to Facebook, we and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland are jointly responsible for this data processing (Art. 26 GDPR). Joint responsibility is limited exclusively to the collection of data and its transmission to Facebook. Processing by Facebook after transmission is not part of the joint responsibility. The obligations jointly incumbent on us have been set out in a joint processing agreement. The text of the agreement can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum. According to this agreement, we are responsible for providing data protection information when using the Facebook tool and for the data protection-compliant implementation of the tool on our website. Facebook is responsible for the data security of Facebook products. You can assert data subject rights (e.g., information requests) regarding data processed by Facebook directly with Facebook. If you assert data subject rights with us, we are obliged to forward them to Facebook.
Data transfer to the USA is based on the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses. Details can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/legal/EU_data_transfer_addendum and https://de-de.facebook.com/help/566994660333381.
