2. Definitions
The data protection declaration is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as ‘GDPR’). The privacy policy should be easy to read and understand. To ensure this, the most important terms are explained below:
2.1 Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as ‘data subject’). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
2.2 Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.
2.3 Processing means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
2.4 Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.
2.5 Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
2.6 Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
2.7 Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
2.8 Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular enquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.
2.9 Third party means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.
2.10 Consent is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.
3. Provision of the website and creation of log files
When using the website for information purposes only, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we automatically collect the following data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer each time the website is accessed:
- The IP address of the user
- Information about the browser type and version used
- The user’s operating system
- Date and time of access
- Websites from which the user’s system accesses the website
- Remote log name and remote user for authenticated sessions
- Content of the requests (specific pages)
- Amount of data transferred in each case
- Names of downloaded files
The data is stored in the log files of our server. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.
When using this general data, we do not draw any conclusions about the person concerned. The data is only analysed statistically.
The legal basis for the temporary storage of log files is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The temporary storage of the data by the system is necessary to
- enable the website to be delivered to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
- to optimise the content of our website and the advertising for it
- to ensure the functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website
- to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack.
- The temporary storage of banner data by the system is necessary to fulfil data protection requirements.
These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose – in this case at the end of the usage process.
If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after 7 days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses are deleted or anonymised so that it is no longer possible to identify the accessing client.
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website, which is why there is no possibility of objection.
4. Use of cookies
4.1 General
This website uses so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files that are sent to your browser by a web server as soon as you visit a website and are stored locally on your end device (PC, notebook, tablet, smartphone, etc.) and saved on your computer and provide the user (i.e. us) with certain information. Cookies do not cause any damage to the computer and do not contain viruses. Each cookie contains a characteristic character string (so-called cookie ID) that enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is called up again.
Permanent (persistent) cookies remain stored even if the browser session is ended and can be called up again when you visit the site again. The cookies are stored on your computer and transmitted from it to our website. You therefore have full control over the use of cookies. If you do not wish data to be collected via cookies, you can set your browser via the menu under ‘Settings’ so that you are informed about the setting of cookies or generally exclude the setting of cookies or can also delete cookies individually. However, please note that deactivating cookies may limit the functionality of this website. Session cookies are automatically deleted after you leave the website.
When you visit our website, you will be informed about the use of cookies and consent will be obtained for the processing of the personal data used in this context. In this context, reference is also made to this privacy policy.
4.2 Technically necessary cookies
On the one hand, we use technically necessary cookies to keep the website functional. Some elements of our website require that the accessing browser can be identified even after a page change. We also use technically necessary cookies to ensure the security of the website, to display the website correctly, to store consent and to make our website more user-friendly; the user data collected by technically necessary cookies is not used to create user profiles. You can find out which cookies we use in the cookie banner. You can also access the information at any time by clicking on ‘Change privacy settings’ in the footer.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using technically necessary cookies within the meaning of § 25 para. 2 TDDDG is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.
4.3 Technically unnecessary cookies
We also use technically unnecessary cookies on our website,
- which enable an analysis of your surfing behaviour
- for the user-friendly use of our website by integrating third-party cookies (YouTube, GoogleMaps, newsletter).
The purpose of using technically unnecessary cookies is to improve the quality of our website and its content. The following data, among others, is collected: Search terms entered, frequency of page views, utilisation of certain website functions.
§ Section 25 (1) TDDDG further stipulates that the storage of information in the end user’s terminal equipment or access to information that is already stored in the terminal equipment is only permitted if the end user has consented on the basis of clear and comprehensive information. Consent must be given in accordance with the GDPR.
According to Section 25 (2) TDDDG, consent is not required in very limited exceptional cases, e.g.
- where the sole purpose of storing information in the end-user’s terminal equipment or the sole purpose of accessing information already stored in the end-user’s terminal equipment is to carry out the transmission of a communication over a public telecommunications network.
- if the storage of information in the end-user’s terminal equipment or access to information already stored in the end-user’s terminal equipment is strictly necessary to enable the provider of a telemedia service to provide a telemedia service explicitly requested by the user.
Accordingly, cookies that are not technically necessary require consent.
You can find out which cookies we use in the cookie banner. You can also access the information at any time by clicking on ‘Change privacy settings’ in the footer.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using technically unnecessary cookies is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR if consent has been given.
You can configure your cookie settings in your browser. Furthermore, you can change the cookie settings at any time via our consent banner, which is displayed in the corner, and thus revoke your consent.
5. Consent banner real cookie banner
We use the consent banner of devowl.io GmbH, Tannet 12, 94538 Grafling. We use this data to ensure the full functionality of our website and to request any necessary consent in connection with cookies and other data transmissions. In this context, your browser will store personal data (including information regarding your consent or revocation). In this context, your browser will transmit personal data (including information regarding your consent or the revocation of consent, the IP address, information about the browser and end device as well as the time of the visit) to devowl.io GmbH. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) and, due to the fact that we require this by law, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the error-free functioning of the website and in ensuring that consent is obtained in accordance with data protection regulations. The data will be deleted as soon as the purpose for which it was collected has been fulfilled.
The data is stored until you either ask us to delete it, deactivate or delete the cookie yourself (see section 4) or until the respective cookie expires.
6. E-mails
You are welcome to contact us by e-mail. In this case, the personal data transmitted with the e-mail will be stored. If this involves information on communication channels (e.g. e-mail address, telephone number), you also agree that we may also contact you via this communication channel in order to answer your enquiry. No data will be passed on to third parties in this context. The data will only be used to process the conversation.
The legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. If the contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR.
We will of course only use the data from your email enquiry for the purpose for which you provide it to us when contacting us.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. This is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified. If the contact is aimed at the fulfilment of a contract, the data will be deleted after the statutory (commercial or tax law) storage periods required for this have expired.
7. Newsletter
With your consent, you can subscribe to our free newsletter, with which we inform you about our current interesting offers. The advertised goods and services are named in the declaration of consent. We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to subscribe to our newsletter. This means that after you have registered, we will send you an e-mail to the e-mail address you have provided in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. In addition, we store the IP addresses used and the times of registration and confirmation. The purpose of this procedure is to be able to prove your registration and, if necessary, to clarify any possible misuse of your personal data.
The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your e-mail address. The data will not be forwarded to third parties.
We use Mailpoet to send our newsletter. However, the data is not stored on the Mailpoet provider’s servers, but on the web server (see section 9.2).
The information is stored for as long as you have subscribed to the newsletter.
The legal basis for the processing of data after registration for the newsletter by the user is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR if consent has been given. The legal basis for sending the newsletter on the basis of the customer relationship is Art. 7 para. 3 UWG. The use of the mailing service provider, the performance of statistical surveys and analyses and the logging of the registration process are based on our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.
The collection of the user’s email address is used to deliver the newsletter. The collection of other personal data (IP address, time of registration/confirmation) as part of the registration process serves to prevent misuse of the services or the email address used.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. Your e-mail address will therefore be stored for as long as the subscription to the newsletter is active. The other personal data collected during the registration process (IP address, time of registration/confirmation) is generally deleted after a period of seven days.
You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time and thus revoke your consent by clicking on the ‘Unsubscribe from newsletter’ field in our newsletter unsubscriber or by sending us an e-mail to e-mail or a message to the contact details given in the imprint. This also enables you to withdraw your consent to the storage of the personal data collected during the registration process (IP address, time of registration/confirmation). When you unsubscribe from the newsletter, we will simultaneously delete your data in MailPoet and the statistical analyses. Unfortunately, it is not possible to cancel the sending of the newsletter by MailPoet or the statistical analyses separately.
8. Registration / Booking
If you book with us, it is necessary for the conclusion of the contract that you provide your personal data, which we need for the processing of your booking. Mandatory information required for the processing of contracts is marked separately, other information is voluntary. The data is entered into an input mask and transmitted to us and stored. The following data is collected as part of the booking/order:
- IP address
- Date and time of the booking/order
- Your name
- Address (different delivery address if applicable)
- Company name
- Position
- E-mail address
- Country
- Telephone number
- Salutation
- Title
- Country of origin
Data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary for the purpose of processing the contract or for billing purposes or to collect payment or if you have expressly consented to this. In this respect, we only pass on the data required in each case. The data recipients are processors (CD Werbeagentur GmbH, EnterSmart GmbH).
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR. With regard to the voluntary data, the legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR.
The mandatory data collected is required to fulfil the contract with the user. We therefore use the data to answer your enquiries, to process your order, to check your creditworthiness or to collect a debt and for the purpose of technical administration of the websites. The voluntary information is provided to prevent misuse and, if necessary, to investigate criminal offences. We may also process the data you provide in order to inform you about other interesting products from our portfolio or to send you e-mails containing information.
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. Due to commercial and tax law requirements, we are obliged to store your address, payment and order data for a period of ten years after fulfilment of the contract. However, we will restrict processing after two years, i.e. your data will only be used to fulfil legal obligations. If there is a continuing obligation between us and the user, we store the data for the entire term of the contract and for a period of ten years thereafter (see above). With regard to the data provided voluntarily, we will delete the data at the end of 2 years after fulfilment of the contract, provided that no further contract is concluded with the user during this time; in this case, the data will be deleted at the end of 2 years after fulfilment of the last contract.
If the data is required for the fulfilment of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, premature deletion of the data is only possible insofar as contractual or legal obligations do not prevent deletion. Otherwise, you are free to have the personal data provided during registration completely deleted from the controller’s database. With regard to the voluntary data, you can declare your cancellation to the controller at any time. In this case, the voluntary data will be deleted immediately.
9. SSL encryption
Our website uses SSL encryption in the case of the transmission of confidential or personal data. This encryption is used, for example, for payment transactions and for enquiries to us via this website. To ensure that this encryption is actually active, this must be monitored by you. The encryption status can be recognised by the browser line, which changes from ‘http://’ to https:// when encryption is active. If encryption is active, your data cannot be read by third parties. If encryption is not active, please contact us in confidence via another contact option.
10. Disclosure of personal data to third parties
10.1 Links to external websites
This website contains links to external sites. We are responsible for our own content. We have no influence over the content of external links and are therefore not responsible for it; in particular, we do not adopt their content as our own. If you are directed to an external site, the data protection declaration provided there applies. If you notice any illegal activities or content on this site, you are welcome to notify us. In this case, we will check the content and react accordingly (notice and take down procedure).
10.2 Rented server space
We would like to point out that we use a rented server space from the provider Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, www.hetzner.com. When you visit the website, the provider of the server space may automatically receive information. This information is automatically stored in so-called server log files (see § 3), which your browser automatically transmits. Further information about the data can be found in § 3.
10.3 Google Maps
We use the Google Maps service on this website. This enables us to show you interactive maps directly on the website and allows you to use the map function conveniently. When you visit the website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website.
We use the so-called two-click solution. This means that when you visit our site, no personal data is initially passed on to Google Maps. Only if you consent to the transfer and thereby activate it will Google receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding page of our website. However, the information will only be passed on if you give your consent in the consent banner.
The following data will be transmitted
- Device-specific information, such as the hardware used; the version of the operating system; unique device identifiers and information about the mobile network, including your telephone number.
- Log data in the form of server logs. This includes, but is not limited to, details of how the services were used, such as search queries; IP address; hardware settings; browser type; browser language; date and time of your request; originating page; cookies that uniquely identify your browser or Google Account
- Location-based information. Google may collect information about your actual location. This includes, for example, your IP address, your WLAN access points or mobile phone masts
- Further information on the data collected by Google, INC can be found at the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de
This takes place regardless of whether Google provides a user account via which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. 1 a) GDPR. An agreement has been concluded with the USA; the European Commission currently assesses the USA as a country with an adequate level of data protection, provided that the company concerned has certified itself under the agreement. Google has certified itself. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or customising its website. Such an analysis is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide customised advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button.
You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact Google Ireland Ltd, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St., Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland to exercise this right.
The duration of storage depends on the storage periods at Google.
Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing by the plug-in provider can be found in the provider’s privacy policy. There you will also find further information on your rights in this regard and setting options to protect your privacy: http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
10.4 Integration of YouTube videos
We have integrated YouTube videos into our online offering, which are stored on http://www.YouTube.com and can be played directly from our website. YouTube is operated by YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. You Tube LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc.
We initially integrate YouTube as an inactive tool. If you wish to watch the videos, you must be aware that data will be transmitted to YouTube as a result. We inform you about this in the video and in our cookie banner. You can only load the video once you have given your consent – and then data will be transferred.
We have no influence on this data transfer. When you visit the website, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. The following data is transmitted:
- Device-specific information, such as the hardware used; the version of the operating system; unique device identifiers and information about the mobile network, including your telephone number
- Log data in the form of server logs. This includes, but is not limited to, details of how the services were used, such as search queries; IP address; hardware settings; browser type; browser language; date and time of your request; originating page; cookies that uniquely identify your browser or Google account
- Location-based information. Google may collect information about your actual location. This includes, for example, your IP address, your WLAN access points or mobile phone masts
- Further information on the data collected by Google, INC can be found at the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de.
This takes place regardless of whether YouTube provides a user account via which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. An agreement has been concluded with the USA; the European Commission currently assesses the USA as a country with an adequate level of data protection, provided that the company concerned has certified itself under the agreement. Google has certified itself.
The integration of the videos serves to make the website more vivid for the user and to increase the search engine ranking of the website on Google and to refer more specifically to our specially produced videos. YouTube stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or customising its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide customised advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on YouTube, you must not click on the video.
The duration of storage depends on the storage periods at YouTube.
You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact YouTube or the controller, namely Google Ireland Ltd, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St., Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland, to exercise this right.
Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing by YouTube can be found in YouTube’s privacy policy. There you will also find further information on your rights and setting options to protect your privacy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
11. Web analysis by the Independant Analytics plugin
We use the WordPress statistics tool ‘Independant Analytics’ on our website. Analysis of the surfing behaviour of our users. The plugin makes it possible to track interactions on the website without storing cookies.
According to Independant Analytics, no personal data is processed. Instead, only the following data is processed in anonymised form
- Anonymised IP address
- Duration of the visit
- Click behaviour
- Other access statistics
The software is set so that the IP addresses are not stored in full, but only in abbreviated form. In this way, it is no longer possible to assign the truncated IP address to the accessing computer. The data is therefore only stored on the web server in anonymised form. Personal identification is not possible.
Further information can be found at: https://independentwp.com/privacy-policy/
The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. The data is neither passed on nor are cookies set. We therefore have a legitimate interest in analysing visitor behaviour. By analysing the data obtained, we are able to compile information about the use of the individual components of our website. This helps us to constantly improve our website and its user-friendliness.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for our recording purposes. In our case, this is the case after 12 months.

- for reasons of public interest in the area of public health in accordance with Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h and i and Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR
- for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 (1) GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing, or
- for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
12.5 Right to information
If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this rectification/erasure/restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to obtain that the personal data concerning you be transferred directly from one controller to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
To assert the right to data portability, the data subject may contact the controller at any time.
12.7 Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.
The controller will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If the personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.
You have the option, in connection with the use of information society services – notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC – to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures that use technical specifications.
To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact the controller directly.
12.8 Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. You can contact the controller for this purpose.
12.9 Right to automated individual decision-making, including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision
- is necessary for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract between you and the controller
- is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
- with your express consent.
However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a or g GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.
With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.
If the data subject wishes to assert rights relating to automated decisions, they can contact the controller at any time.

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR. The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.
