Privacy Policy
General Information
This Privacy Policy provides an overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit our website. Personal data refers to any information that can be used to identify you personally.
Data subjects are identifiable if they can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by association with an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more specific characteristics that reflect the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of those natural persons. In practice, this includes all data that is or can be associated with a person in any way. For example, a person’s phone number, credit card number, employee ID number, account information, license plate number, physical appearance, customer number, or address are all considered personal data.
Personal data is collected on this website only to the extent that is technically and organizationally necessary. The following statement provides an overview of how we ensure the protection of your personal data and what types of data are collected and for what purposes.
We process your personal data in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy, the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to us, and the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) may involve security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to completely protect data from access by third parties.

Personal Data
Scope of the Processing of Personal Data
The scope and nature of the collection, processing, and use of your data depend on how you use our site and what personal data you provide, for example, via a contact form. As a general rule, we process our users’ personal data only to the extent necessary to provide a fully functional website, as well as our content and services. The processing of our users’ personal data generally takes place only with the user’s consent. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for practical reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data
To the extent that we obtain the data subject’s consent for the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.
When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary for the implementation of precontractual measures.
To the extent that the processing of personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In cases where the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(d) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, and the interests, fundamental rights, and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not override the former interest, then Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
Data Deletion and Retention Periods
The data subject’s personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. Data may also be stored if this is provided for by European or national legislation in EU regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted when a retention period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless further storage of the data is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). The service uses the Universal Analytics mode. This makes it possible to associate data, sessions, and interactions across multiple devices with a pseudonymous user ID, thereby enabling the analysis of a user’s activities across devices.
Google Analytics uses so-called cookies—text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there.
However, if IP anonymization is enabled on this website, Google will first truncate your IP address within member states of the European Union 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 United States and truncated there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. 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 other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator. These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing.
The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The data we send—which is linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g., user ID), or advertising IDs—is automatically deleted after 14 months. Data that has reached the end of its retention period is automatically deleted once a month.

Rights of the Data Subject
Right to Information
You may request confirmation from the data controller as to whether we are processing personal data concerning you.
If such processing is taking place, you may request the following information from the data controller:
- the purposes for which the personal data is processed;
- the categories of personal data that are processed;
- the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your personal data has been or will be disclosed;
- the planned duration of the storage of your personal data or, if specific details cannot be provided, the criteria used to determine the storage period;
- the existence of a right to have personal data concerning you rectified or erased, a right to restrict processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing;
- the existence of a right to file a complaint with a supervisory authority;
- all available information regarding the source of the data, if the personal data is not collected directly from the data subject;
- the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, in accordance with Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR; and—at least in such cases—meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the scope and intended effects of such processing on the data subject.
You have the right to request information regarding whether your personal data is being transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 46 of the GDPR in connection with the transfer.
Right to Correction
You have the right to request that the controller correct and/or complete your personal data if the processed personal data concerning you is inaccurate or incomplete. The controller must make the correction without delay.
Right to Restriction of Processing
Under the following conditions, you may request that the processing of your personal data be restricted:
- if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period that allows the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
- the processing is unlawful, and you object to the erasure of the personal data and instead request that the use of the personal data be restricted;
- the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need it to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims, or
- if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the controller’s legitimate grounds override your grounds.
If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, such data—apart from its storage—may be processed only with your consent, or for the purpose of asserting, exercising, or defending legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of an important public interest of the Union or a Member State.
If the restriction on processing has been imposed in accordance with the above conditions, the controller will notify you before the restriction is lifted.
Right to Erasure
Obligation to Delete
You may request that the controller delete your personal data without delay, and the controller is obligated to delete such data without delay if any of the following grounds apply:
- The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
- You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
- You object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
- The personal data concerning you has been processed unlawfully.
- The erasure of your personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
- The personal data concerning you was collected in connection with the information society services offered, in accordance with Article 8(1) of the GDPR.
Disclosure to Third Parties
If the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obligated to erase it pursuant to Article 17(1) of the GDPR, the controller shall take appropriate measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform controllers who process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested that they erase all links to such personal data or any copies or replicas of such personal data.
Exceptions
The right to erasure does not apply if the processing is necessary
- to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
- to comply with a legal obligation that requires processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
- for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Article 9(2)(h) and (i) and Article 9(3) of the GDPR;
- for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, to the extent that the right referred to in the section “Right to Erasure / Obligation to Erase” is likely to render the achievement of the purposes of such processing impossible or seriously impair it, or
- to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.
Right to Information
If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing with the data controller, the data controller is obligated to notify all recipients to whom your personal data has been disclosed of such rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
You have the right to request information from the data controller regarding these recipients.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the controller in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was provided, provided that
- the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, and
- the processing is carried out using automated means.
In exercising this right, you also have the right to have your personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, provided that this is technically feasible. This must not infringe upon the freedoms and rights of others.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the data controller.
Right to Object
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you that is carried out pursuant to Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The controller will no longer process your personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If the personal data concerning you is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of the personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.
In connection with the use of information society services—notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC—you have the option to exercise your right to object through automated procedures that use technical specifications.
Right to Withdraw Consent Under Data Protection Law
You have the right to withdraw your consent under data protection law at any time. Withdrawing your consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent prior to its withdrawal.
Automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing—including profiling—that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision
- is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the data controller,
- is permitted under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, and such law provides for appropriate safeguards to protect your rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests; or
- with your express consent.
However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data as defined in Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) of the GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.
With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, including, at a minimum, the right to request that the controller involve a person, to present your point of view, and to challenge the decision.
Right to File a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority—in particular, in the Member State of your residence, your workplace, or the location of the alleged infringement—if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR.
The supervisory authority to which the complaint was submitted shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 of the GDPR.
SSL or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information—such as orders or inquiries 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 browser’s address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock icon in your browser’s address bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.
Notice Regarding the Transfer of Data to the United States
Our website uses, among other things, tools provided by companies based in the United States. If you consent to the use of these tools, your personal data may be transferred to the U.S. servers of the respective companies.
The TADPF Agreement between the U.S. and the EU is an adequacy decision pursuant to Article 45(1) of the GDPR. Under this decision, the U.S. is considered a safe third country with respect to data protection. However, compared to other adequacy decisions, the TADPF has only limited effect. Similar to the previous Privacy Shield, the TADPF’s privileged effect applies only to data recipients that undergo a self-certification process and commit to complying with a set of detailed data protection obligations. Companies certified under the TADPF criteria are listed on the website www.dataprivacyframework.gov.
