1) Personal Data:
According to Article 4 of the GDPR, personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. A natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.
2) Our Handling of Your Data
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.
Using our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (such as name, address, or email address) is collected on our pages, this is done—where possible—on a voluntary basis. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit consent.
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) may have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.
3) Cookies
Our websites use what are known as cookies in some areas. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. They help make our offering more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after your visit ends. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit. You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are being set, to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and to enable automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
4)Server-LogFiles
The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These include:
Browser type and version
Operating system used
Referrer URL
Hostname of the accessing computer
Time of the server request
These data cannot be assigned to specific individuals. This data will not be merged with other data sources. However, we reserve the right to review this data retrospectively if concrete indications of unlawful use become known to us.
5) Google Analytics
This website uses features of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies" — text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
Browser Plugin
You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings accordingly; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to fully use all the functions of this website.

8) SSL Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content—such as inquiries you send to us as the website operator—this site uses SSL encryption.
