2.6 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 inquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient, and the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data at any time.

3. Data Collection on Our Website
3.1 Cookies
Our web pages partially use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies." They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit.
You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions you desire (e.g., shopping cart function) are stored based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g., cookies for analyzing your browsing behavior) are stored, these are treated separately in this privacy policy.
3.2 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 browser type and version, operating system used, referrer URL, hostname of the accessing computer, time of the server request, and IP address. This data is not merged with other data sources.
The basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures.
3.3 Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent.
The processing of the data entered into the contact form is therefore based solely on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient for this purpose. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
4. Analysis Tools and Advertising
4.1 Newsletter
When signing up to receive our newsletter, the data you provide will be used exclusively for this purpose. Subscribers may also be informed via email about circumstances relevant to the service or registration (e.g., changes to the newsletter offering or technical updates).
For effective registration, we require a valid email address. To verify that a registration is genuinely made by the owner of an email address, we use the "double opt-in" procedure. This involves logging the newsletter request, sending a confirmation email, and receiving the requested response. No additional data is collected. The data is used solely for sending the requested information and is not shared with third parties.
You can revoke your consent to the storage of your personal data and its use for sending the newsletter at any time. Each newsletter contains a corresponding link for this purpose. Additionally, you can unsubscribe directly on this website or inform us of your request using the contact details provided at the end of this privacy notice.

This site uses the Google Maps map service via an API. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
To use the functions of Google Maps, it is necessary to store your IP address. This information is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transmission.
The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers and an easy findability of the places specified by us on the website. This constitutes a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

5.2 YouTube
On some of our websites, we embed YouTube videos. The operator of the corresponding plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube servers is established. YouTube is informed about which pages you visit. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can associate your browsing behavior with you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand.
When a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior.
Anyone who has disabled the storage of cookies for the Google Ad program will not have to deal with such cookies when watching YouTube videos. However, YouTube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in your browser.
Further information on data protection at "YouTube" can be found in the provider's privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy
5.3 Vimeo
We use the provider Vimeo for embedding videos. Vimeo is operated by Vimeo, LLC, headquartered at 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011.
On some of our websites, we use plugins from the provider Vimeo. When you visit the web pages of our website that are equipped with such a plugin, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established, and the plugin is displayed. This transmits to the Vimeo server which of our web pages you have visited. If you are logged in as a member of Vimeo, Vimeo assigns this information to your personal user account. When using the plugin, such as clicking the start button of a video, this information is also assigned to your user account. You can prevent this assignment by logging out of your Vimeo user account before using our website and deleting the corresponding Vimeo cookies.

Our website uses plugins from the video portal Dailymotion. The provider is Dailymotion, 140 boulevard Malesherbes, 75017 Paris, France.
When you visit one of our pages equipped with a Dailymotion plugin, a connection to Dailymotion servers is established. The Dailymotion server is informed about which of our pages you have visited. Dailymotion also obtains your IP address. This applies even if you are not logged into Dailymotion or do not have a Dailymotion account.
If you are logged into your Dailymotion account, you enable Dailymotion to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Dailymotion account.
Further information on the handling of user data can be found in Dailymotion's privacy policy at: https://www.dailymotion.com/legal/privacy

You have the right to receive information about your stored personal data and its origin at any time free of charge.

Please contact our data protection officer for this purpose.
To ensure that data can be blocked at any time, this data must be kept in a lock file for control purposes. You can also request the deletion of the data, provided there is no legal obligation to archive it. If such an obligation exists, we will block your data upon request.
You can make changes or revoke consent by notifying us with effect for the future.

We reserve the right to occasionally adapt this privacy policy to ensure that it always complies with current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services in the privacy policy, e.g., when introducing new services. The new privacy policy will then apply to your next visit.
