Liability for links

II. Data processing on our website
When you use the website, we collect information that you provide yourself. We also automatically collect certain information about your use of the website during your visit. Under data protection law, the IP address is also considered personal data. An IP address is assigned to every device connected to the Internet by the Internet provider so that it can send and receive data.

1. Processing of server log files
When using our website for purely informational purposes, general information that your browser transmits to our server is initially stored automatically (i.e. not via registration). By default, this includes: browser type/version, operating system used, page accessed, the previously visited page (referrer URL), IP address, date and time of the server request and HTTP status code. The processing is carried out to protect our legitimate interests and is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 letter f) GDPR. This processing serves the technical administration and security of the website. The stored data is anonymized immediately after collection, so that no personal data is stored. We cannot identify you as a data subject based on the stored information. Art. 15 to 22 GDPR therefore do not apply in accordance with Art. 11 para. 2 GDPR, unless you provide additional information that enables your identification to exercise your rights set out in these articles.

2. Data transfer to the USA
Among other things, tools from companies based in the USA are integrated on our website. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to the US servers of the respective companies. We would like to point out that the USA is not a safe third country within the meaning of EU data protection law. US companies are obliged to disclose personal data to security authorities, without you as the data subject being able to take legal action against this. It therefore cannot be ruled out that US authorities may process, evaluate and permanently store your data on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.

This website is created with Webflow and therefore uses services that Webflow has integrated into its programming. These services ensure the functionality of the site. Webflow's privacy policy and which services are used can be viewed here: https://webflow.com/legal/privacy

3. Contact options and inquiries
If you send us a message via the contact email provided, we will process the data transmitted for the purpose of responding to your inquiry. If your request is aimed at the conclusion or performance of a contract with us, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR is the legal basis for data processing. Otherwise, we process the data based on our legitimate interest in contacting inquiring persons. The legal basis for data processing is then Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

4. Integrated services and third-party content
We use services and content provided by third-party providers on our website (hereinafter collectively referred to as "content"). For such integration, it is technically necessary to process your IP address so that the content can be sent to your browser. Your IP address is therefore transmitted to the respective third-party providers. This data processing is carried out to protect our legitimate interests in the optimization and economic operation of our website and is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 letter f) GDPR. You can prevent this data processing at any time via the settings of the browser used or certain browser extensions.

We have integrated content from the following services provided by third parties into our website:

Services of Google Ireland Limited (Ireland/EU): "Google Web Fonts" for displaying fonts. When using Google services, we cannot rule out the transmission of the processed data to Google LLC (USA), which is based in the USA.

Adobe Fonts (Type kit): This site uses so-called web fonts provided by Adobe Systems Incorporated, 345 Park Avenue, San Jose, CA 95110-2704, USA ("Adobe") for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly. For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to the Adobe servers. This may also result in the transmission of personal data to Adobe's servers in the USA. In this way, Adobe becomes aware that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Adobe Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font will be used by your computer. Further information on Adobe Fonts can be found at https://fonts.adobe.com/ and in Adobe's privacy policy: https://www.adobe.com/de/privacy.html


III. Further data processing

1. Contractual Relationship
To establish or execute the contractual relationship with our customers, it is regularly necessary to process the contact details of the relevant contact persons provided to us. The processing serves our legitimate interest in a smooth business process. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. We also process customer and prospective customer data for evaluation and marketing purposes. This processing is carried out on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 letter f) GDPR and serves our interest in further developing our offer and informing you specifically about offers. Further data processing may take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 letter a) GDPR) or if this serves to fulfil a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 letter c) GDPR).
