Cookies (Cookie policy)

Our website uses so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our webservice more user-friendly, more effective and safer. Cookies are small text files that are stored by your browser. Cookies have different validity periods. Some are deleted after closing the browser and some are automatically deleted after a defined validity period. We use a session cookie that allows us to recognize your browser on the next visit of our site. This is used, for example, to store the favorites-list and to continue to use that list when you return to our site later. Furthermore, we use an opt-in cookie that stores your consent or refusal to analyze your browsing behavior. You will find extra information on analytics on this page.

You may be able to configure your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies, to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If you disable cookies (in general or for our site) our site will offer only limited functionality.

The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for the analysis of your browsing behavior) are stored, these are treated separately in this privacy policy.

Newsletter

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered by us, we require an e-mail address from you. Further data will not be collected. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

The processing of the data entered in the newsletter registration form is based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the email address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the unsubscribe-link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted after you unsubscribe from the newsletter.

Contact form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, the data you entered into the contact form will be stored by us for processing the inquiry and for the case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent except it is necessary for the processing of your inquiry or a contract with you.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent. You can revoke this consent at any time. Please just send us an e-mail. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you entered in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies.

The website operator has a legitimate interest in the anonymized analysis of user behavior in order to optimize its web service and its advertising. The information generated by your visit about the use of this website will not be passed on to third parties.

You can prevent the analysis by a corresponding setting of your browser software, which rejects all cookies from our site. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use all the functions of this website. If you do not agree to the storage and use of your data, you can deactivate the storage and use by not agreeing to the analysis of your surfing behavior when asked. If you agree to the storage and use, an opt-in cookie will be stored in your browser, otherwise an opt-out cookie will be stored in your browser. If neither cookie is present, opt-out is assumed. If you delete your cookies, this has the consequence that the opt-out or opt-in cookie is also deleted.
