2. Categories of Data Subjects:

3. Legal Bases for the Processing

The legal basis upon which we process any personal data collected is the EU General Data Protection Regulation, Regulation 2016/679 of the European Parliament (“GDPR”). As a data subject, you are entitled to various rights under the GDPR, which arise in particular from Articles 15 to 21 of the GDPR. Please note that in addition to the GDPR, other national data protection regulations in your country may apply. If you are a resident of California, under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), and subject to certain qualifications, you may have the right to request free of charge specific or categorical access to your personal data and/or the deletion of your personal data.

With respect to the processing of personal data for which we obtain the consent of the data subject, Article 6 paragraph 1 letter a of the GDPR shall serve as the legal basis.

With respect to the processing of personal data which is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract, where any party to the contract is the data subject, Article 6 paragraph 1 letter b of the GDPR shall serve as the legal basis. This includes processing operations necessary to perform pre-contractual measures.

If the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation, which our company is subject to, Article 6 paragraph 1 letter c of the GDPR shall serve as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not prevail over the first interest stated, then Article 6 paragraph 1 letter f GDPR shall serve as the legal basis for processing. The legitimate interest of our company is in the conduct of our business activities as well as in the analysis, optimization and maintenance of the security of our online offer. 

II. Log files

In the server statistics, such data is automatically stored, which the browser transmits to us within the scope of our legitimate interest in performing analysis and for security reasons (so-called "log files").

This comprises the following data:

We usually cannot assign this data to specific individuals. This data will not be merged with other sources of data. The data is additionally deleted within 7 days following a statistical evaluation. Data the further retention of which is required for evidentiary purposes shall be exempted from the deletion until the final clarification of the respective incident. 

III. Contractual processing

The personal data provided by you, such as the name, address or email address will only be used internally to answer your requests, to process your orders or to provide you with access to certain information. 

IV. Contact, Application Data

When you contact us by e-mail, using the contact form or using the service form, we will save your information to answer your questions or to send you the desired offer in relation to our services.

A transfer to third parties shall fundamentally not take place, unless valid data protection regulations justify a transfer or we are obliged to do so by law. You can withdraw your consent that you have granted with effect for the future at any time. In case of cancellation your data shall be immediately deleted. Your data will otherwise be deleted if we have processed your request or the purpose of the storage has been omitted. You can always inform yourself about the data stored about you.

You can also send an application to us via our contact form. The data entered is processed and used exclusively for the purpose of selecting candidates. By submitting your application, you agree to be contacted and informed in writing and / or by telephone as part of the application process. Please note that your data will not be stored anonymously, but will be accessible to our human resources department and the bodies responsible for the vacancy. We only assess applicants according to their qualifications regardless of their race, ethnic origin, gender, religion or beliefs, disability, age or sexual identity. We therefore ask you to refrain from providing such information in the application if at all possible. You may amend your application at any time, or cancel it and revoke your consent. Please contact our team to this end.

            This website uses cookies in the following ways :

Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. This includes in particular the session cookies. They store a so-called session ID that is randomly generated, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the joint session. This will allow your computer to be recognized when you return to our website.

The persistent cookies stored on your computer are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may differ depending on the cookie.

You can, of course, also use our website without accepting cookies. You can also configure your browser settings in accordance with your wishes and in overall terms, e.g. refuse acceptance of third-party cookies or all cookies, or delete cookies that have already been stored. If you do not accept cookies, please note that our offer may not work faultlessly in this case.

You can find out which function on our website places cookies further below in the area of the individual functions.

The stored information is stored separately from any additional data that may be provided on our website.

The data contained in the cookies is not linked to your other data. 

VI. Newsletter

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on our website, we require a valid e-mail address from you that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided or that the owner agrees to receive the newsletter. After you have provided your email address, we will send you a confirmation email to the address provided, in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm this within 24 hours, your data regarding the newsletter dispatch will be automatically deleted. If you confirm your wish to receive the newsletter, we will save your e-mail address until you unsubscribe from the newsletter.

We only send newsletters with your consent or legal permission.

VII. Passing on of data to third parties

We only pass on data to third parties if this is necessary to fulfil the contract and/or we are statutorily obliged to do so in an individual case. If we process data in a third country or if the processing takes place in the context of the use of third party services or the disclosure or transfer of data to other persons, bodies or companies, this will only take place within the legal requirements.  

In some cases we make use of external service providers in accordance with our legitimate interests with regard to analysis, optimization and economical operation of the online content. This always requires that the third-party providers of this content access the IP address of the users, due to the fact they could not send the content to their browsers without the IP address. The IP address is thus necessary for the presentation of this content. Third party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also called "web beacons") for statistical or marketing purposes. Using “Pixel Tags” information such as user traffic can be evaluated on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on the user's device and may include, among other things, technical information similar to the log files. We have listed our service providers below.

If your data is to be used for other purposes, we will inform you beforehand and use the data only if you have explicitly declared your consent to this.

The information produced by the cookie concerning your use of this website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there.

We would like to point out that this website uses Google Analytics with the "anonymize" extension and therefore IP addresses will be shortened before transfer by Google within the European Union or in other contractual states of the agreement on the European Economic Area to rule out direct personal references. Only in exceptional cases will the complete IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the United States and abbreviated there.

By order of the provider Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website to compile reports concerning the website activities for the website operators and to render additional services linked with the use of the website and the Internet. Google will also transfer this information to third parties if necessary, if this is statutorily stipulated or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. Google will under no circumstances link your IP address with other Google data. You can prevent the installation of the cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however we draw your attention to the fact that you may not be able to use all the functions of this website in that case.
