3) Cookies
3.1 In order to make your visit to our website more attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use cookies, i.e. small text files that are stored on your end device. In some cases, these cookies are automatically deleted again after the browser is closed (so-called “session cookies”), in other cases, these cookies remain on your end device for longer and allow page settings to be saved (so-called “persistent cookies”). In the latter case, you can find the duration of the storage in the overview of the cookie settings of your web browser.
If personal data is also processed by individual cookies set by us, the processing is carried out either in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point b GDPR for the performance of the contract, in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR in the case of consent given or in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests in the best possible functionality of the website as well as a customer-friendly and effective design of the page visit.

Please note that the functionality of our website may be limited if cookies are not accepted.
3.2 Polylang Language Cookie
We use the cookie “pll_language” from the provider Polylang to determine and save the language used or selected by the website visitor. This cookie remains stored on your end device for one year. The processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR based on our legitimate interest in providing our website in the correct language variant and ensuring a user-friendly website design.

When you contact us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail), personal data is collected. Which data is collected in the case of a contact form can be seen from the respective contact form. This data is stored and used exclusively for the purpose of responding to your request or for establishing contact and for the associated technical administration.
The legal basis for processing data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR. If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) point b GDPR. Your data will be deleted after final processing of your enquiry; this is the case if it can be inferred from the circumstances that the facts in question have been finally clarified, provided there are no legal storage obligations to the contrary.

Subject to your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR, the provider also carries out a statistical analysis of the success of newsletter campaigns by means of web beacons or tracking pixels in the emails sent, which can measure opening rates and specific interactions with the newsletter content.

We have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider, which safeguards the data of our website visitors and prohibits a transfer to third parties.

6) Site Functionalities and Social Plugins
6.1 Facebook plugins
Plugins of the social network of the following provider are used on our website: Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (Facebook)
These plugins allow direct interaction with content on the social network. In order to increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are initially deactivated and integrated into the page by means of a so-called “2-click” or “Shariff” solution. This integration ensures that when you access a page of our website that contains such plugins, no connection is yet established with the servers of the provider.
Your browser only establishes a direct connection to the servers of the provider when you activate the plugins and thereby give your consent to the data transfer in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR. In this process, regardless of whether you log into an existing user profile, a certain amount of information about your end device used (including your IP address), your browser and your page history is transferred to the provider and may be further processed there.
If you are logged into an existing user profile on the provider’s social network, information about interactions carried out via the plugins will also be published there and displayed to your contacts. You can revoke your consent at any time by deactivating the activated plugin by clicking on it again. However, the revocation has no influence on the data that has already been transferred to the provider.
Data can also be transferred to: Meta Platforms Inc., USA
We have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our website visitors’ data and prohibits unauthorised disclosure to third parties. For data transfers to the USA, the provider participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission.
6.2 Instagram plugins
Plugins of the social network of the following provider are used on our website: Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (Instagram)
These plugins allow direct interaction with content. The data processing and privacy terms correspond to the provisions outlined in section 6.1.
7) Web Analysis Services (Google Analytics)
On our website, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).
Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
We use Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizeIp()”. This ensures that your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted, thereby preventing direct personal identification.
The data processing, in particular the setting of cookies, is carried out exclusively if you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR via our cookie consent banner. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by adjusting your cookie settings on our website.
For data transfers to the USA, the provider participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission.
