Recording of general data and information

This website records general data and information every time it is accessed and stores it in the server's log files:

Recording of personal data and information

The personal data transmitted to the controller can be seen in the relevant input masks. The personal data entered by the data subject is collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the officer responsible for processing (controller) and for our own purposes. The controller can initiate transmission of the data to one or more processors, for example, a parcel service, which also uses the personal data exclusively for internal purposes.

The controller will inform any data subject who asks for information in good time of the personal data stored about the particular data subject. Furthermore, the controller corrects or erases personal data at the request of or notice from the data subject providing this would not contravene statutory retention obligations. The erasing of data may mean that, in some circumstances, not all functions and services will be fully usable.

Cookies

The websites use cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via an Internet browser. Through the use of cookies, the users of this website can be provided with user-friendly services that would otherwise not be possible without the placing of cookies.

The data subject can prevent cookies from being placed by our website at any time via the relevant settings on the Internet browser in use, thus permanently preventing the placing of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been placed can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all current Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the placing of cookies in the Internet browser in use, in some circumstances, not all functions of our website will be fully usable.

Disclosing data to third parties

If it is necessary for the performance of transactions and complies with the legal framework, personal data will be disclosed to third parties.

Data security

We have implemented numerous technical and organisational measures in order to ensure the most comprehensive protection of the personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, as a basic rule, there may be gaps in security when transferring data on the Internet, which means that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, each data subject is free also to send us personal data via alternative methods, such as over the phone.

Your personal data is always transmitted in encrypted form (from and to this website). An SSL/TLS certificate from Let's Encrypt (https://letsencrypt.org) is used for this purpose.

Duration of data storage

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. Once the retention period has expired, the relevant data will be deleted providing it is no longer necessary for the fulfilment of the contract or contract negotiations.

Publication

The data privacy policy can be modified and adapted at any time.
