III. Information on Data Processing

According to Art. 4 no. 1. of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, i.e. the General Data Protection Regulation (in the following called „GDPR“), „processing“ is defined as any activity performed either with or without automated techniques, or any series of such activities in connection with personal data such as collecting, registering, organising, arranging, storage, adaption or modification, reading out, retrieving, utilising, disclosure by transmission, distribution or other forms of provision, matching or combination, limitation, deletion or destruction.

Your data which we process while you use our internet presence will be deleted or blocked as soon as the reason for storing them does not exist anymore, or if deletion of such data is not prohibited by statutory storage requirements, and if afterwards no other information has been given regarding the individual processing steps.

Cookies

Our web site uses so-called cookies. These are small text files or other storage methods which are saved to your end device by your browser. These cookies serve to process specific information about you on an individual level such as your browser and location data, or your IP address.  

Such processing helps to make our internet presence even more user-friendly, more efficient, and safer since processing permits to e.g. display our web site in different languages, or to offer you a User Account.

The legal basis of such processing is Art. 6 para 1 lit. b) and f) GDPR provided such cookie data are processed for initiating or performing a contract. Furthermore, we have a legitimate interest in improving out web site’s functionality.

Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager

Our web site uses Google Analytics. This is a web analysis service by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, in the following simply called „Google“.

By certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield

https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

Google guarantees that EU data privacy regulations are adhered to even while processing data in the US.

The Google Analytics service helps to analyse usage behaviour in our web site. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our web presence.

Any usage- and user-related information such as IP address, location, time, or frequency of visiting our web site, will be transmitted to a Google server in the US and stored there. We do, however, use Google Analytics with its so-called anonymization functionality. Through this technology, Google will abbreviate the IP address within the EU or EEA already.

All data collected in this manner is then used by Google to provide us with an assessment on visits to our web site and the respective user activities there. These data may furthermore be used to provide additional services in connection with usage of our web site and internet use.

Google states they will not link your IP address to other data. Also, at

https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners

Google provides additional data privacy information for you, such as the options to block data usage.

Furthermore, on the web page

https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

Google offers a so-called deactivation add-on including further related information. You may install this add-on with all established web browsers, which then offers further control options for the data Google collects whenever you call up our web page. The add-on will then tell the JavaScript (ga.js) of Google Analytics that no information on visiting our web site shall be transmitted to Google Analytics. This does not, however, prevent information from being transmitted to us or other web analysis services. To learn whether we use any other web analysis services, and what they are, please contact

Google AdWords with Conversion Tracking

In our web site we use the advertising component Google AdWords with so-called conversion tracking technology. This is a service by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, in the following simply called „Google“.

By certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield

https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

Google guarantees that EU data privacy regulations are adhered to even while processing data in the US.

We use conversion tracking to ensure targeted advertisement of our offerings. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our web presence.

Whenever you click on an advertisement placed by Google, the conversion tracking we use will save a cookie to your end device. These so-called conversion cookies become invalid after 30 days, and do not serve to identify you personally.

Insofar as the cookie is still valid and you visit a certain page of our web site, we and Google are able to assess that you have visited one of our advertisements placed in Google, and that you have then been forwarded to our website.

Using the information collected thereby, Google will prepare statistics for us on visits to our website. Also, we thus receive data on the number of users who have clicked on our advertisement(s), and on the pages in our web site that were subsequently opened. Neither we nor any third parties also using Google-AdWords will be able to identify you through this process.

You may limit or block installation of cookies by specific settings in your internet browser. Also, you may delete stored cookies at any time. The steps and measures required depend on the specific internet browser you are using. If you have any questions please use the Help function or documentation of your internet browser, or contact the respective manufacturer or support department. Furthermore, Google also offers additional information on this issue at

https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html

- in particular on the options of blocking data usage.

YouTube

In our web site we use YouTube. This is a video portal by YouTube LLC., 901 Cherry Ave., 94066 San Bruno, CA, USA, in the following simply called „YouTube“.

YouTube is a subsidiary of Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, in the following simply called „Google“.

By certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield

https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

Google, and with it its subsidiary YouTube, both guarantee that EU data privacy regulations are adhered to even while processing data in the US.

We use YouTube in connection with the „enhanced data protection mode“ functionality which permits us to display videos. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in optimisation of our web presence. According to YouTube, the „enhanced data protection mode“ ensures that the data to be specified below will only be transmitted to the YouTube server if you actually start viewing the video.

Without this „enhanced data protection“, a connection is made to the YouTube server in the US as soon as you open one of our web pages with an embedded YouTube video.

This connection is necessary to display the respective video on our web page via your web browser. Within this process, YouTube will at least collect and process your IP address, date and time, as well as the web page you visit. Also, a connection is generated to Google’s „DoubleClick“ advertisement network.

If you are simultaneously logged into YouTube, YouTube will allocate these connection data to your YouTube account. To prevent this, you must either logout from YouTube before visiting our website, or perform the respective settings in your YouTube user account.

To ensure better functionality and for analysis of user behaviour, YouTube will store permanent cookies on your end device via your web browser. If you do not consent to such processing you may block cookie storage by specific settings in your web browser. More about this above under the heading „Cookies“.

For further information on collection and usage of data and your respective rights and protection options please see the Google privacy notice at

https://policies.google.com/privacy.

 

Deadlines for Deleting Data
