3.Cookies and similar technologies

In addition to the aforementioned data, cookies are stored on your computer when you use our website and comparable technologies are used. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your hard drive in relation to the browser you are using and which provide the party setting the cookie (in this case, us) with certain information. Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your computer. They are used to make the website as a whole more user-friendly and effective.
The vast majority of cookies are only set with your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. a GDPR). For other cookies, the legal basis is our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR). Our cookie banner informs you which cookies fall into which category.

(a) General

This website uses the following types of cookies, the scope and functionality of which are explained below:
  • Transient cookies. Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. These include, in particular, session cookies. These store a so-called session ID, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the joint session. This means that your computer can be recognised when you return to our website. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close your browser. Such a cookie can, for example, store the contents of a shopping basket in an online shop or a login status.
  • Persistent cookies. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a predefined period of time, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete the cookies at any time in the security settings of your browser.

(b) Browser settings

You can configure your browser settings according to your preferences and, for example, refuse to accept third-party cookies or all cookies. Stored cookies can be deleted in the system settings of the browser. Please note that you may not be able to use all the functions of this website.

A list of the cookies and similar technologies used can be found at the end of this privacy policy.

 (d) Revoke cookies

On our website you will find a small cookie symbol at the bottom right, which you can use to change your cookie settings at any time.
 

4.Disclosure of personal data in general

(a) Transfer to service providers

In some cases, we use service providers bound by instructions for certain data processing activities, who process the data on our behalf and according to our instructions (commissioned processing).

(b) Disclosure to public authorities, injured parties and for legal proceedings

If it is necessary to clarify illegal or abusive use of our website or for legal prosecution, personal data will be forwarded to the law enforcement authorities and, if necessary, to injured third parties. However, this only happens if there are indications of illegal or abusive behaviour.
Disclosure may also occur if it serves to enforce terms of use or other agreements. We are also legally obliged to provide information to certain public authorities upon request. These are law enforcement agencies, authorities that prosecute administrative offences subject to fines and the tax authorities.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. b, Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. c, Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. d and Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR.

(c) Disclosure in the context of corporate transactions

As our business evolves, we may change the structure of our business by changing its legal form, establishing, buying or selling subsidiaries, divisions or components. In such transactions, customer information may be passed on to the acquirer or legal successor together with the part of the company to be transferred.
Whenever we disclose personal data to the extent described above, we will ensure that this is done in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable data protection law.

(d) Transfer to recipients outside the EU

We may transfer personal data to countries outside the EU ("third countries"). Any transfer of data to a recipient in a third country is carried out in compliance with the applicable data protection law. If the European Commission has not established the existence of an adequate level of protection for a third country, we provide appropriate safeguards to ensure adequate protection of the personal data relating to you. This can be done in particular by entering into data processing contracts that contain EU standard data protection clauses and provide adequate safeguards as decided by the European Commission (available at: https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/standard-contractual-clauses-scc_en?prefLang=en). Please contact us for further details, such as the text of the EU standard data protection clauses.
 

5.Integration of third-party content

(a)General

Our website may also contain offers from third parties. If you click on such an offer, data will be transmitted to the respective provider to the extent necessary (e.g. the information that you found this offer on our website and, if applicable, further information that you have already provided for this purpose on our website).

(b)Vimeo videos

The videos on our website are partially embedded from the Vimeo platform (Vimeo LLC, based in New York City, USA). This means that the video is played directly on vimeo.com but displayed on our site. In the process, Vimeo cookies are set, via which personal data relating to you is transmitted to Vimeo if you are logged in to Vimeo via your end device. This is necessary to enable you to save the videos in your "Watch later" playlist in order to view them at a later time. You can prevent such data transfer by logging out of Vimeo beforehand. The cookies are used on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. a GDPR).

6.Evaluation of usage data ("tracking") and usage-based information ("(re-)targeting")

(a)General

We want to tailor the content of our website as precisely as possible to your interests and in this way improve our offer for you. In order to recognise user preferences and particularly popular areas of the website, we use so-called tracking technologies.
In order to be able to tailor our online marketing (e.g. banner advertising) more specifically to your usage-based interests, we use so-called (re-)targeting technologies. These are read when you visit other websites that cooperate with the providers of these (re-)targeting technologies and are used to provide you with the most interest-related information possible.
When the above technologies are used, cookies on our website and (in the case of retargeting) on third-party websites are used to record your interest in our products and services. This involves the use of random identifiers (cookie IDs) and similar technologies that we do not associate with your name, address or similar details, even if we know these details (e.g. from an existing contractual relationship), unless you have consented to this.

(b)Web analytics through Fathom Analytics

This website uses the analysis service Fathom. Fathom is not based on "cookies". No personal information about you is stored.

This session cookie is deleted again when the browser is closed.
Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted to our site by the user. Therefore, you have full control over the use of cookies. You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your internet browser. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time.
