2. information about the collection and storage of personal data
a) Access data and log files
Based on our legitimate interests according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO, we collect data about every access to the server on which this service is located (so-called server log files). This information is stored temporarily in a so-called log file. The access data includes the IP address of the requesting computer, date and time of access, name and URL of the accessed file, website from which the access is made (referrer URL), browser used and, if applicable, the operating system of your computer and the name of your access provider. Log file information is stored for security reasons and to ensure the functionality of our website for a maximum of seven days and then deleted. Data whose further storage is required for evidentiary purposes is exempt from deletion until the respective incident has been finally clarified.
b) In addition to the aforementioned data, technically necessary and optionally, if you give your consent, technically unnecessary cookies are stored on your computer. Cookies are small text files that are assigned to the browser you are using on your hard drive and through which certain information flows to the body that sets the cookie. They serve to make the Internet offer as a whole more user-friendly and effective.
c) In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. These have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions and are regularly monitored.
d) If our service providers or partners are based in a country outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA), we will inform you about the consequences of this circumstance at the appropriate place in this data protection declaration.
e) contacting us
For questions of any kind, we offer you the opportunity to contact us by e-mail or via a form provided on the website. In doing so, you must provide a valid e-mail address, your name and the content of your message so that we know who sent the inquiry and can respond to it. Further information (e.g. telephone number) can be provided voluntarily. Data processing for the purpose of contacting us is based on your voluntarily given express consent or in the context of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) and b) DSGVO). We delete the data accruing in this context after the storage is no longer necessary or restrict the processing if there are legal retention obligations.
3. cloudflare
We use the Content Delivery Network (CDN) of Cloudflare Inc. (101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA) (Cloudflare) to increase the security and delivery speed of our website. This corresponds to our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO). A CDN is a network of [globally] distributed servers that is able to deliver optimized content to the website user. For this purpose, personal data may be processed in server log files by Cloudflare.
You have the right to object to the processing. Whether the objection is successful is to be determined in the context of a balancing of interests.
The data is processed to maintain the security and functionality of the CDN and to optimize our loading times. The use of cookies by Cloudflare is done for security reasons to ensure the trustworthiness of an end device and is absolutely necessary for the security function.
Cloudflare keeps data logs only as long as necessary and this data is deleted within 24 hours in most cases. However, there is information that Cloudflare keeps indefinitely as part of its permanent logs in order to improve Cloudflare’s overall performance. However, this data is not personally identifiable and is anonymized by Cloudflare.
We have entered into an order processing agreement with Cloudflare. Cloudflare is also a certified participant of the “EU-US Privacy Shield Framework”. Cloudflare has committed to handling all personal data received from European Union (EU) member states in accordance with the “Privacy Shield Framework”.

4. disclosure of data and transmission to third countries
a) Data is only passed on to third parties within the framework of legal requirements. We only pass on users’ data to third parties if this is necessary, for example, on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) DSGVO for contractual purposes or on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO in the economic and effective operation of our business. If we commission third parties to provide our services, we take appropriate legal precautions and corresponding technical and organizational measures to ensure the protection of personal data in accordance with the relevant statutory provisions. To this end, we have concluded commissioned data processing agreements with these providers in accordance with Art. 28 DSGVO, which ensure that the data processing is carried out in a permissible manner.
b) If content, tools or other means from other providers (hereinafter jointly referred to as “third party providers”) are used within the scope of this data protection declaration and their named registered office is located in a third country, it is to be assumed that a data transfer to the third party providers’ countries of domicile takes place. Third countries are countries in which the GDPR is not directly applicable law, i.e. countries outside the EU or the European Economic Area. The transfer of data to third countries takes place under the conditions of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR.
Some third countries are certified by the European Union through so-called adequacy decisions to have data protection comparable to the EEA standard. However, in other third countries to which personal data may be transferred, there may not be a consistently high level of data protection due to a lack of legal provisions. If this is the case, we ensure that data protection is adequately guaranteed.
This is possible via binding company regulations, standard contractual clauses of the European Commission for the protection of personal data pursuant to Art. 46 (1), (2) lit. c DSGVO, certificates or recognized codes of conduct.
