Privacy
The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. As far as personal data (for example name, address or email address) is collected, this occurs, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) can have security gaps. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
Facebook Buttons
This site uses social plugins (buttons) of the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Inc, 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA (“Facebook”). The plugins can be identified by one of the Facebook logos or are marked with the addition “Facebook Social Plugin” or “share on Facebook”.
When a user clicks such a button on our website, his browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook’s servers. The content of the plugin is then transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser and integrated into the website. We therefore have no influence on the amount of data Facebook collects with the help of this plugin. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as the relevant rights and setting options for the protection of users’ privacy, can be found in Facebook’s data protection information: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.
If a user is a Facebook member and does not want Facebook to use this offer to collect data about him or her and link it to his or her membership data stored on Facebook, he or she must log out of Facebook before visiting the website.
Twitter Buttons
This offer uses the buttons of the social network Twitter, which is offered by Twitter Inc, 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. They are recognizable by terms such as “Twitter” or “sequence”, combined with a stylized white or blue bird. When a user clicks such a button on this website, his browser establishes a direct connection to the Twitter servers. The content of the Twitter button is then transmitted directly from Twitter to the user’s browser. We therefore have no influence on the amount of data Twitter collects with the help of this plugin and informs users according to their level of knowledge. Further information can be found in Twitter’s privacy policy at http://twitter.com/privacy.
YouTube
Our website uses plugins from Google’s YouTube site. This website is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. If you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. The YouTube server will be informed which of our pages you have visited.
If you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to associate your surfing behaviour directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
For more information on how user data is handled, please see YouTube’s privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Information, Deletion, Blocking
You have the right to get free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients and the purpose of data processing as well as a right to correction, blocking or deletion of these data at any time. You can contact us at any time via the address of the website operator given in the legal notice for further questions on the subject of personal data.
Cookies
Cookies are small files that enable the user’s access device (PC, smartphone, etc.) to store specific information relating to the device. They serve on the one hand the user-friendliness of web pages and thus the users (e.g. storage of login data). On the other hand, they are used to collect statistical data on the use of the website and to analyse it for the purpose of improving the offer.
Users can influence the use of cookies. Most browsers have an option with which the storage of cookies is restricted or completely prevented. However, this can limit the use and especially the comfort of use without cookies.
Server Log-Files
The provider collects data about every access to the offer (so-called server log files). Access data includes:
• browser type and version
• the user’s operating system
• referrer URL (the previously visited page)
• IP address and the requesting provider
• time of access
This data cannot be connected to certain users. We reserve the
right, however, to check the log data subsequently if there is a justified suspicion of illegal use based on concrete evidence.
Objecting Advertising E-Mails
The use of the contact data published within the legal notice by third parties for sending unsolicited advertising and information material is hereby expressly prohibited. We expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information being sent, for example through spam mails.
