III. Information on Data Processing
According to Art. 4 Number 1. of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, i.e. the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), „processing“ signifies any and all processes conducted with or without support by automated procedures, or any such process series in connection with personal data such as collecting, recording, organizing, sorting, storing, adapting or modifying, reading out, retrieving, using, disclosing via transmission, distributing or any other type of providing, matching or interlinking, restricting, deleting or destroying.
Your data which we process for your use of our internet presence will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage is fulfilled, or if no statutory storage obligations oppose their deletion, and provided no differing statements on the individual processing methods are stated in the following.
With the following Privacy Statement, we shall inform you in particular on the type, scope, purpose, duration, and legal basis of our processing of personal data insofar as we decide on the purpose and means of processing, either alone or in collaboration with third parties. Additionally, we will inform you in the following on such third-party components which we use for optimization purposes and for increasing usage quality, insofar as this use results in any Third Parties processing data on their own responsibility.
Types of data processed:
- Contact data (e.g. email address, phone numbers)
- Master data (e.g. names, addresses)
- Usage data (e.g. web sites visited, access times)

These data will not be merged with any other data source.
The legal basis for our data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b; f GDPR
Hosting
Our web presence is supplied by an external service provider / web hosting company.
All data captured from our web site are processed on our behalf on that hosting company’s servers (contract data processing).

Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics on our website. This is a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 (hereinafter: Google).
Through certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield
https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active
Google guarantees that it will follow the EU's data protection regulations when processing data in the United States.
The Google Analytics service is used to analyze how our website is used. The legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our site.
Usage and user-related information, such as IP address, place, time, or frequency of your visits to our website will be transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there. However, we use Google Analytics with the so-called anonymization function, whereby Google truncates the IP address within the EU or the EEA before it is transmitted to the US.
The data collected in this way is in turn used by Google to provide us with an evaluation of visits to our website and what visitors do once there. This data can also be used to provide other services related to the use of our website and of the internet in general.
Google states that it will not connect your IP address to other data. In addition, Google provides further information with regard to its data protection practices at
https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners,
including options you can exercise to prevent such use of your data.
In addition, Google offers an opt-out add-on at
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en
in addition with further information. This add-on can be installed on the most popular browsers and offers you further control over the data that Google collects when you visit our website. The add-on informs Google Analytics' JavaScript (ga.js) that no information about the website visit should be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, this does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analytics services we may use as detailed herein.
Google AdWords with Conversion Tracking
Our website uses Google AdWords and conversion tracking. This is a service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 (hereinafter: Google).
Through certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield
https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active
Google guarantees that it will follow the EU's data protection regulations when processing data in the United States.
We use conversion tracking to provide targeted promotion of our site. The legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our site.
If you click on an ad placed by Google, the conversion tracking we use stores a cookie on your device. These so-called conversion cookies expire after 30 days and do not otherwise identify you personally.
If the cookie is still valid and you visit a specific page of our website, both we and Google can evaluate that you clicked on one of our ads placed on Google and that you were then forwarded to our website.
The data collected in this way is in turn used by Google to provide us with an evaluation of visits to our website and what visitors do once there. In addition, we receive information about the number of users who clicked on our advertisement(s) as well as about the pages on our site that are subsequently visited. Neither we nor third parties who also use Google AdWords will be able to identify you from this conversion tracking.
You can also prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by making the appropriate settings in your browser. Likewise, you can use the browser to delete cookies that have already been stored. However, the steps and measures required vary, depending on the browser you use. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your browser or contact its maker for support.
In addition, Google provides further information with regard to its data protection practices at

Google Remarketing
We use the remarketing function on our website. This is a service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 (hereinafter: Google).
Through certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield
https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active
Google guarantees that it will follow the EU's data protection regulations when processing data in the United States.
We use this feature to deliver interest-based, personalized advertising on third-party websites that also participate in Google's advertising network.
The legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our site.
To allow this advertising service to function, Google stores a cookie with a sequence of numbers on your device via your browser when you visit our website. This cookie records both your visit and the use of our website in anonymous form. However, personal data will not be passed on. If you subsequently visit a third-party website that also uses the Google advertising network, advertising may appear that refers to our website or our offers there.
To permanently disable this feature, Google provides a browser plugin for most common browsers at
https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin?hl=de
Likewise, the use of cookies from certain providers, e.g. via
http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices/
or
http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/
can be deactivated by opt-out.
Cross-device marketing allows Google to track your usage patterns across multiple devices, so you may see interest-based, personalized advertising even when you switch devices. However, this requires that you have agreed to link your browsing history to your existing Google account.
