Basic information about the processing of personal data
We collect and process personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary for the provision of a functional website and the services of our company. Processing will only take place if you have consented to it or if a legal requirement stipulates or permits it.
In this context, the security of your personal data is a high priority for us. We therefore protect your data by technical and organizational measures to prevent misuse. We regularly review the measures taken and adapt them to the current technical conditions. In addition, we ensure that all our employees are bound to confidentiality in accordance with Article 28 GDPR.Purposes and legal basis of processing, transfer to third parties and abroadWe process your data for the following purposes:
– Fulfillment of new or existing contractual relationships or to carry out pre-contractual measures,
e.g. the preparation of quotations;
– Processing of inquiries, e.g. as part of our core activities or for job applications;
– Provision of telemedia, e.g. our website or e-mail; In this context, we process the data on the legal basis of Article 6(1) GDPR:
– Article 6(1)(a) GDPR: Processing on the basis of your consent
– Article 6(1)(a) GDPR: Processing for the performance of a contract or for the performance of pre-contractual measures, e.g. a sales or service contract or the invitation to submit an offer.
– Article 6(1)(c) GDPR: processing operations for which we are obliged by law, e.g. storage for tax purposes
– Article 6(1)(f) GDPR: processing operations that we carry out on the basis of our legitimate interests, e.g. the transfer of your data to postal service providers for the purpose of sending mail or to a tax advisor. Your data will also be disclosed to third parties on the basis of the aforementioned permissions and your data will only be disclosed within the framework of a processing agreement or if other confidentiality obligations exist. This includes professional secrecy holders or carriers. In the case of a data transfer to third countries outside the European Economic Area, a corresponding adequacy decision pursuant to Article 45 GDPR must exist for the respective third country (e.g., for Switzerland) or the recipient must have established the corresponding safeguards pursuant to Article 46 GDPR.
Personal data are processed and stored only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes of processing. Once the purpose has been fulfilled, we will delete or block your data unless we are no longer subject to a legal obligation to retain it.
Collection of access data and log files
We collect access data (log files) about each access to the server on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) DSGVO. This includes the name of the website accessed, the date and time of access, the volume of data transferred, the message about successful or unsuccessful access, the browser type and version, the operating system, the referrer URL (the previously visited page) and your IP address.
Cookies are text files that are stored by the Internet browser on the user’s computer system. The cookies are stored in the memory of the browser of the data subject when accessing this website.
You can prevent the storage of cookies in the browser, but then the website can only function in a limited way. Instead, it makes more sense to set the browser to delete all cookies after the end of the respective browser session, which works without restriction on our site and prevents recognition during the next visit with all positive and negative consequences for you. We use technical cookies because this is technically necessary for the operation of the service offered in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) DSGVO, i.e. to protect our legitimate interests.
Technical cookies are used to recognize a user when the website is called up again and thus, for example, to save language settings made, a shopping cart or similar beyond a browsing session.
ajax.googleapis.com for Jquery and JQueryUI
Our website uses Ajax and jQuery or jQueryUI techniques that optimize the loading speed of our website. For this purpose, program libraries are called from Google servers and Google’s CDN (Content Delivery Network) is used. Some browser data is transferred to the USA for the download of these libraries. You can find out more about this at:https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/#jquery and under the privacy policy of google.de.

Within the scope of use, your data will be transmitted to the provider in the USA.

For this purpose, your data may be transferred to a customer management program (CRM system). Please note that according to the GoBD (principles for the proper keeping and storage of books, records and documents in electronic form as well as for data access) we are obliged to archive e-mails and therefore e-mails sent to us cannot be deleted completely (from our archiving system).
