Personal data is data about you. These include your name, address and email address. You also do not have to disclose any personal data in order to be able to visit our website. In some cases we need your name and address as well as other information in order to be able to offer you the requested service.

The same applies if we supply you with information material upon request or if we answer your inquiries. In these cases we will always point this out to you. In addition, we only store the data that you have transmitted to us automatically or voluntarily.

If you use one of our services, we usually only collect the data that is necessary to be able to offer you our service. We may ask you for additional information, but this is voluntary. Whenever we process personal data, we do so in order to be able to offer you our service or to pursue our commercial goals.




Automatically saved data

Server log files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• Date and time of the request

• Name of the requested file

• Page from which the file was requested

• Access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.)

• Web browser and operating system used

• full IP address of the requesting computer

• amount of data transferred

This data is not merged with other data sources. The processing takes place in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.

For reasons of technical security, in particular to prevent attempts to attack our web server, we store this data for a short time. It is not possible for us to draw conclusions about individual persons based on this data. After seven days at the latest, the data is anonymized by shortening the IP address at domain level so that it is no longer possible to establish a link to the individual user. The data is also processed anonymously for statistical purposes; a comparison with other databases or a transfer to third parties, even in excerpts, does not take place. The number of page views is only displayed as part of our server statistics, which we publish every two years in our activity report.
