Processed data
We attach great importance to the protection of your personal data. When you use our website and services, we primarily process the data that you transmit to us and the information that we collect directly (see below).
When you use our website and services, we collect metadata, such as information about your browser (type and version), your device type (e.g. smartphone or tablet) and your IP address. We also collect access data, also known as log data. This includes the name of the website accessed, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, information about the operating system and details of the last website visited.
We only store and process further personal data if you transmit it to us in the course of using services and tools (e.g. contact form). Further information relevant to data protection for specific tools can be found below in this privacy policy.
Purpose
We process your data exclusively for the purposes that we communicated to you when collecting your data and for other purposes compatible with these purposes. Further information on the basis of our data processing can be found below in this privacy policy.
Processing of the data
We process your data for various purposes in connection with communication with you. This includes, in particular, answering enquiries, asserting your rights and contacting you in the event of queries. We primarily use communication data and master data, as well as registration data in relation to offers and services used by you. This data may be stored for documentation purposes, training, quality assurance and enquiries.
We also process data for marketing purposes and to maintain the customer relationship. We may send general or personalised information about our offer to our users, for example in the form of irregular contacts by e-mail, post or telephone, as well as via other channels for which we have contact information from you. You have the option at any time to reject such contacts or to refuse or revoke your consent to be contacted for advertising purposes. With your consent, we can tailor our online offering more specifically to the needs of our users.
We may also use your data for market research, to improve our online offering, our services and, if necessary, for product development.
Finally, we may also store and process your data for security reasons and to control access to our website.
Log files
We mainly use data to create server log files in order to carry out statistical evaluations for the operation of the website, to ensure the security of the IT systems and to optimise the website. We primarily use log data for this purpose. The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate interest in offering you a secure and smooth user experience at all times. We also reserve the right to check the log data retrospectively if there are concrete indications of unlawful use.
Contact form
If you contact us via the contact form, we collect your contact details in order to process your enquiry and answer any follow-up questions. This data is transmitted in encrypted form.
If you have provided us with your e-mail address or contacted us directly by e-mail, we may also send you information by e-mail relating to the processing of your enquiry and questions.
The legal basis for processing your data is based on our legitimate interest in being able to process your online enquiry efficiently and effectively. If the aim of the email contact is to conclude a contract, the data processing is based on the initiation of this contractual relationship.
reCAPTCHA
To ensure that the form(s) on our website are completed by a human and not by a bot, we may use reCAPTCHA. reCAPTCHA is provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). Google's privacy policy is available at the following URL: policies.google.com/privacy
Our newsletter
On our websites, you have the option of subscribing to our newsletter in order to receive regular information about us and our offers and services. If you register for the newsletter, your contact details from the input form will be transmitted to us. By subscribing to the newsletter, you give us your consent and at the same time take note of our data protection information.
The legal basis for the processing of your data is based on our legitimate interest in actively providing you with up-to-date information about us based on the interest you have expressed by registering. You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at any time with effect for the future. To do so, you can simply click on the corresponding link at the end of each newsletter sent to you.
Double opt-in
In order to guarantee the security of your data, we may use the double opt-in procedure. This means that after you have registered for the newsletter, we will send you an e-mail to the e-mail address you have provided with a confirmation link. The address will only be released for the newsletter distribution list after you click on this link. Registration for the newsletter therefore requires your consent.
Marketing
Your data may be used by us to inform you occasionally about news, new products, services or other services of interest to you from us and possibly our partners.
If you do not wish to consent to the use of your data for marketing purposes, you can inform us accordingly or refuse or revoke your consent to receive marketing information.
Cookie preferences
We provide you with the option of adapting the use of cookies on our website to your needs or revoking your consent to the use of cookies via the Cookie Preference Centre. In addition, most browsers allow you to be warned/informed when cookies are set or to prohibit cookies completely. If you wish to obtain a complete and up-to-date overview of all third-party access to your browser, specific browser plug-ins provide you with this function.
Our website or other online publications from us may include third-party content, such as maps from Google Maps, fonts from Google Fonts or videos from Vimeo. As a result, your IP address will be communicated to these providers. Certain external services may only be activated after your explicit confirmation.
This external content is integrated by us in order to provide you with useful information or functions or to optimise your user experience. We do not process any further data. Our legitimate interest in offering you this content or functions is therefore the legal basis for this data processing.
We endeavour to only integrate external providers where your IP address is used exclusively to deliver the content. However, we have no influence on the possible storage and processing of your IP address by the third-party providers. For this reason, we refer you to the privacy policy of the relevant service for data processing by the respective third-party provider. Further information on individual setting options relating to your privacy can be found here.
IP anonymisation
Your IP address is anonymised by default on our website before it is transmitted to Google. This is done by only transmitting your address in truncated form. In exceptional cases, your address may be transmitted in full and only shortened in Google's data centre.
Social media plugins
We may integrate services from various social media on our website, which are usually recognisable by the corresponding company or network logos.
When you use these services, your IP address is communicated to their providers. The providers may be able to link your data to your social media user account via the IP address if you are logged in at the time. It is also possible that your IP address will be stored by the providers even if you are logged out or do not have a corresponding social media account.
The legal basis for the processing of your data is based on our legitimate interest in providing you with attractive tools in connection with social media on our website.
We may use the LinkedIn pixel of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company (Wilton Place Dublin 2, Ireland) on our website.
The LinkedIn pixel allows us to track your behaviour during your visit to our website. The usage data generated by the service is transmitted by default to servers in a LinkedIn data centre and stored there, allowing us to optimise our offering and your user experience based on this data. The information collected by LinkedIn can be used to measure the effectiveness of adverts and to display LinkedIn adverts. LinkedIn may link your data to your LinkedIn user account if you are logged in at the time. If you do not want LinkedIn to collect your data, you can adjust the settings in your LinkedIn account at the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/.
The legal basis for the processing of your data is based on our legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour to optimise our website. Further information can be found at the following link linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy

SSL
Due to the technical structure of the Internet as an open network, secure transmission of your data cannot be guaranteed in all cases. If you send your personal data to us, you always do so at your own risk.
To ensure the protection of your transmitted data, we use encryption mechanisms in accordance with current security standards (Transport Layer Security, TLS). TLS is a protocol for secure data transmission on the Internet and is supported by most browsers. It uses the public key method, in which data is encrypted with a publicly accessible key and can only be decrypted again with a specific private key. Most browsers use a key symbol or padlock to indicate whether a connection is secure.
We take various technical and organisational security precautions to ensure the protection of your data within our system. However, we would like to point out that despite these measures, there is a risk of data loss, unauthorised access to or manipulation of data by third parties. Please also note that certain network sections and your computer are outside our controllable security area. As a user, you are responsible for informing yourself about the necessary security precautions and taking the necessary measures within your sphere of influence. Any liability on our part for damages incurred by you as a result of data loss or manipulation is excluded.
Storage of data
We only store your data for as long as is necessary for the purposes stated by us or as long as we are legally or contractually obliged to do so. Data that is no longer required for the stated purposes will be deleted or alternatively anonymised by us as part of our regular data maintenance.
Update
This data protection information is not part of the contract and can be amended by us at any time. The version published here applies in each case.
