Data protection
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data in a confidential manner and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.

Visitors can generally use our website without providing personal data. To the extent that personal data (name, address, or e-mail addresses) are collected on our pages, that collection is always on a voluntary basis to the extent possible. These data are not disclosed to third parties without your express consent.

We would like to point out that data transfer in the internet (during e-mail communication, for instance) can be subject to security gaps. Data cannot be completely protected from third-party access.


Information, deletion, and blocking
You always have a right to free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients, and the purpose of their processing, and a right to correct, block, or delete such data. To perform these functions, or to receive answers to other questions about the issue of personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address provided in the legal notice.

 
Server log files
The provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files that your browser automatically transfers to us. This information is:

  • browser type/version
  • operating system used
  • referrer URL
  • host name of the accessing computer
  • time of server query

These data cannot be assigned to specific individuals. They will not be combined with data from other sources. We reserve the right to check the data after specific indications of illegal use have come to light.

 
Cookies
The web pages use so-called cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and contain no viruses. Cookies serve to make our site more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files stored on your computer that your browser saves.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called session cookies. They are deleted automatically when your visit ends. Other cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser upon your next visit.

You can set your browser so that it informs you when cookies are set, allows cookies on a case-by-case basis only, rejects cookies generally or for certain cases, or deletes cookies automatically when you close it. Disabling cookies may limit this website’s functionality.

If you send us queries via our contact form, we will store your information from the query form, including the contact information you enter for purposes of query processing, in case you have follow-up questions. We will not disclose this data to anyone else without your consent.

 
Objection to e-mail advertisement
We hereby object to the use of the contact data published as part of our obligation to provide a legal notice to send advertisement and information material that we have not explicitly requested. The operators of the pages explicitly reserve the right to take legal steps if unsolicited advertising information such as spam e-mails are sent.

Use of Google Analytics:
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called cookies, text files which are stored on your computer and which allow analysis of website use. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the U.S. and stored there. If the IP anonymization function is enabled on this website, however, your IP address is first abbreviated by Google within European Union member states or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the U.S. and shortened there. At the behest of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activities, and provide further services to the website operator related to website and internet use. The IP address transferred from your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data. However, you can set your browser software to prevent cookies from being stored; we would like to point out that if you do, you may not be able to use the full scope of all functions of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing of this data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available via the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

You can prevent data collection by Google Analytics by clicking the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set preventing collection of your data during visits to this website in future:
Disabling Google Analytics

More information about data protection and terms of use can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/. We would like to point out that the “anonymizeIp” code has been added to Google Analytics on this website to ensure anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).

We also use Google Analytics for statistical analysis of data from AdWords and the DoubleClick cookie. If you would prefer that your data not be included, you can disable the function via the ads preferences manager (http://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/?hl=de).
