Cookies
Technically necessary cookies (session cookies)
We use technical cookies on our website to make the website more user-friendly. In order to use the full functionality of our website, it is therefore necessary to allow session cookies for technical reasons.
The purpose of using such cookies is to allow you to use the website in a simplified and more user-friendly manner. It is therefore necessary for the browser to be able to identify you even after a page change.
The data is not used to create a user profile of you. The legal basis for the use of technical cookies is Section 25 (2) TDDDG [the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act]. It is not possible to use the website without session cookies.
Tracking cookies
In addition to the use of technical cookies, this website also uses tracking cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on your computer and allow us to analyse your use of the website. However, they only collect and store data in a pseudonymised form. They are not used to identify you personally and are not merged with data about the bearer of the pseudonym. We use this information to measure the attractiveness of our website and to continually improve its content.
The legal basis for the use of tracking cookies is your consent pursuant to Section 25 (1) TDDDG.
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. This will not affect the lawfulness of any data processing prior to the withdrawal of consent.
You can adjust the cookie settings at any time.
Detailed information about the cookies and analysis services used, as well as the purpose and legal basis of the data processing, are described at length in the Privacy Policy.
Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Ltd (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter referred to as "Google"), which uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on your computer and allow us to analyse your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA). However, as this website uses IP anonymisation, your IP address will first be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states that are party to the European Economic Area Agreement.
In exceptional cases, the full IP address may be transferred to a Google server in the USA where it may be shortened. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google.
Data will only be collected as part of this service if you have given your express consent. The legal basis for this is Section 25 (1) TDDDG. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. This will not affect the lawfulness of any data processing prior to the withdrawal of consent.
The purpose of the collection is to analyse the use of our website. In addition, the use of Google Analytics enables us to generate reports on website activity in order to improve our website. In addition to us, Google will therefore also be named as a recipient of the data.
The data is deleted once it is no longer required for our collection purposes. You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data at any time, even after you have given your consent.
The company is certified under the "EU-US Data Privacy Framework" (DPF). This is an agreement between the European Union and the US to ensure that European data protection standards are met when data is processed in the US. Any company that has obtained DPF certification agrees to comply with these privacy standards.

Google Maps
Our website uses Google Maps to visually display geographical information (maps). Google Maps is operated by Google Ireland Ltd. (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter referred to as: “Google”). This enables us to make it easier for you to find us or to show you specific locations.
Google will therefore also be named as a recipient of the data. When you use Google Maps, information about your use of our website is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information collected and transmitted includes your IP address and your location, if the settings of your terminal device allow you to be located. When Google Maps is activated, Google Fonts are loaded into your browser cache in order to display the relevant texts and fonts as intended.
This data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) of the GDPR and Section 25 (1) of the TDDDG, provided that the consent within the meaning of the TDDDG relates to the setting of cookies or access to information on your terminal device. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. This will not affect the lawfulness of any data processing prior to the withdrawal of consent.
In this processing, the cooperation with Google takes place on the basis of a joint controllership agreement pursuant to Art. 26 GDPR. This can be found at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.
The transfer of data to the USA involves data protection risks. If you do not want your data to be transferred, you can deactivate your consent in the cookie settings. Please note, however, that you will not be able to use the map display in this case.
The company is certified under the "EU-US Data Privacy Framework" (DPF). This is an agreement between the European Union and the US to ensure that European data protection standards are met when data is processed in the US.

When using this Google service, personal data such as the IP address may be transferred to Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) in the USA.
This data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) of the GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 (1) TDDDG, provided that the consent within the meaning of the TDDDG relates to the setting of cookies or access to information on your terminal device.

Social media
We want to connect with you and other interested parties, customers and users. We use a number of social networking sites to do this. You can find out which specific social networking sites we use in the following section.
In general, information is collected that is used for market research and advertising purposes. This information includes associating your visit to our website with your social networking account or through your stored cookies or IP address. This is usually done by creating user profiles and the resulting interests. This makes it possible to display tailored advertising, both inside and outside the social network. As a result, cookies may be stored on your computer when you use social networking sites. However, we would like to point out that we generally have no control over what data is collected.
Through our social media presence, we want to provide you with information or give you the opportunity to share information in the easiest and fastest way possible. Therefore, unless you have consented to the processing of your data on the respective platform, the legal basis is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) of the GDPR. If you have given your consent on the respective platform, your consent is the legal basis for the processing of your data pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) of the GDPR and Section 25 (1) of the TDDDG, provided that the consent within the meaning of the TDDDG relates to the setting of cookies or access to information on your terminal device. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. This will not affect the lawfulness of any data processing prior to the withdrawal of consent.
If you withdraw your consent, ask us to delete your data or if the purpose for which the data was stored no longer applies, we will delete your data, unless this is contrary to mandatory legal provisions. Cookies stored by you will remain on your terminal device until you delete them.
The data processed as a result of your visit to our social media websites is classified as data processing initiated by us, and is therefore subject to joint responsibility with the operator of the social media website in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. Joint controllership is limited to processing operations where the purposes and means of processing are jointly determined. If you wish to exercise your rights as a data subject, you may contact us as well as the operator of the social media website.
Please also note that your data may be processed outside the European Union and therefore you may not be able to properly exercise your rights.
