Responsible entity is the natural or legal person, who decides alone or together with others about the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke a given declaration of consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal e-mail notification to us is sufficient.
The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right of objection against data collection in special cases as well as against
Direct advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR, you have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object to the processing of your personal data at any time. This also applies to any profiling based on this privacy policy. The respective legal basis on which profiling is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you file an objection, we will not collect your data unless we find compelling reasons which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing is necessary for the assertion, exertion or defence of legal claims (objection pursuant to Art.21 (1) GDPR).
If your personal data are processed in order to carry out direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is compatible with such advertising. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for the purpose of direct marketing (objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR).
Right of appeal to the responsible supervisory authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, the parties concerned have a right of appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their residence, of their place of work or the location of the suspected infringement. The right of appeal shall be without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to data transferability
You have the right to have data, which we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract, handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible person, this will only be done as far as it is technically feasible.
SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Information, blocking, deletion and correction of personal data
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time and without charge, to obtain information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint for this and other questions on the subject of personal data.
Right to limitation of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint. The right to restriction of the processing of your personal data exists in the following cases:
-
If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the examination you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
-
If the processing of your personal data has taken place unlawfully, you can demand the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
-
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the exercise, defence or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
-
If you have filed an objection in accordance with Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your and our interests. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests predominate, you have the right to demand that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data may only be processed – apart from their storage – with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a member state.
Objection to promotional e-mails
We hereby object to the use of contact data published within the scope of the imprint obligation to send unsolicited advertising and information material.

The website operator has a justified interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are dealt with separately in this privacy policy.

Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

In all other cases, processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) and / or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR), as we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of enquiries addressed to us.
