Your rights as a data subject
Using the contact details of our data protection officer, you can exercise the following rights at any time:
- information about your data stored by us and its processing,
- correction of inaccurate personal data,
- deletion of your data stored by us,
- restriction of data processing where we are not yet allowed to delete your data due to legal obligations,

If you have given us your consent, you can withdraw it at any time with effect for the future.
You can lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for you at any time. Your responsible supervisory authority depends on the federal state of your residence, your work or the suspected infringement. A list of supervisory authorities (for the non-public sector) with addresses can be found at: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.
Purposes of data processing by the controller and third parties
We only process your personal data for the purposes stated in this privacy policy. Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those stated. We only pass on your personal data to third parties if:
- you have given your express consent,
- the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you,
- the processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation,
- the processing is necessary to protect legitimate interests and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in your data not being passed on.
Deletion or blocking of data
We adhere to the principles of data avoidance and data minimisation. We therefore only store your personal data for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes stated here or as provided for by the various retention periods set by law. Once the respective purpose no longer applies or these periods expire, the corresponding data is routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.
Newsletter
On the basis of your express consent, we regularly send you our newsletter or comparable information by email to the email address you provided.
Your email address is sufficient to receive the newsletter. When you sign up for our newsletter, the data you provide is used exclusively for this purpose. Subscribers may also be informed by email about circumstances relevant to the service or registration (for example changes to the newsletter or technical matters).
We need a valid email address for an effective registration. To verify that a registration actually comes from the owner of an email address, we use the “double opt-in” procedure. For this we log the newsletter order, the sending of a confirmation email and the receipt of the requested reply. No further data is collected. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter and is not passed on to third parties.
You can withdraw your consent to the storage of your personal data and its use for sending the newsletter at any time. Every newsletter contains a link for this. You can also unsubscribe directly on this website at any time or let us know via the contact option given at the end of this privacy notice.
Contact form
If you contact us by email or contact form with any questions, you give us your voluntary consent for the purpose of making contact. A valid email address is required for this. It is used to assign the request and to answer it. Providing further data is optional. The information you provide is stored for the purpose of processing the request and for possible follow-up questions. Once your request has been dealt with, personal data is deleted automatically.
Use of Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Because IP anonymisation is activated on these websites, your IP address is first shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with further services related to website and internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.
The purposes of the data processing are the evaluation of website use and the compilation of reports on website activity. Further related services are then to be provided based on the use of the website and the internet. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of the website operator.
You can prevent cookies from being stored by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website in full. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics.
In addition, or as an alternative to the browser add-on, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our pages by clicking this link. This installs an opt-out cookie on your device. This prevents collection by Google Analytics for this website and this browser in future, as long as the cookie remains installed in your browser.
Use of script libraries (Google Web Fonts)
To display our content correctly and attractively across browsers, we use script and font libraries on this website such as Google Web Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google Web Fonts are transferred to your browser's cache to avoid loading them several times. If your browser does not support Google Web Fonts or prevents access, content is displayed in a standard font.
Calling up script or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible, but currently unclear whether and for what purposes, that operators of such libraries collect data.
You can find the privacy policy of the library operator Google here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
Use of Google Maps
This website uses the Google Maps API to display geographical information. When Google Maps is used, Google also collects, processes and uses data about visitors' use of the map functions. You can find more information about data processing by Google in Google's privacy notices. There, in the privacy centre, you can also change your personal privacy settings.
Detailed instructions on managing your own data in connection with Google products can be found here.
Embedded YouTube videos
On some of our pages we embed YouTube videos. The operator of the corresponding plug-ins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plug-in, a connection to YouTube servers is established. YouTube is informed which pages you visit. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your browsing behaviour to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand.
When a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behaviour.
Anyone who has deactivated the storage of cookies for the Google ad programme will not have to expect such cookies when watching YouTube videos either. However, YouTube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in your browser.
Further information on data protection at YouTube can be found in the provider's privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/
Changes to our privacy policy
We reserve the right to adapt this privacy policy so that it always complies with current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services in the privacy policy, e.g. when introducing new services. The new privacy policy will then apply to your next visit.
