Privacy Protection Statement

Data protection

The protection and security of personal information is a high priority for us. Therefore, we strictly adhere to the rules of the General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union. Below you will be informed about what type of data is collected and for what purpose it is collected:

Data transmission / data logging

When visiting this page, the web server automatically logs log files that can not be assigned to a specific person. This data includes for example, browser type and version, operating system used, referrer URL (previously visited page), IP address of the requesting computer, server request date and time of access, and client file request (file name and URL). These data are collected only for the purpose of statistical evaluation. A transfer to third parties, for commercial or non-commercial purposes, does not take place.

Use of personal data

Personal data will only be collected or processed if you voluntarily provide such information, e.g. in the context of a request (contact form, newsletter registration). Unless there are any necessary reasons for doing business, you may at any time revoke in writing (e.g., by e-mail) the previously granted approval of your personal data storage with immediate effect. Your data will not be disclosed to third parties, unless disclosure is required by law.

Information, modification and deletion of your data

In accordance with applicable law, you can always ask us in writing if and what personal data is stored with us about you. You will receive a corresponding message immediately.

Security of your data

Your personal data made available to us will be secured by taking all technical and organizational security measures so that they are inaccessible to unauthorized third parties. When sending very sensitive data or information, it is recommended to use the post office, as a complete data security can not be guaranteed by e-mail.

Newsletter

By subscribing to the newsletter, you announce your e-mail and optionally enter your name. Furthermore, your IP address and the date of the registration will be stored during the registration, the latter only for the purpose of evidence in the case of an abusive registration. We use the list provider MailChimp to send our newsletter. MailChimp is an offer from The Rocket Science Group, LLC, 512 Means Street, Suite 404, Atlanta, GA 30318 ("Rocket"). The data stored during registration will be encrypted and encrypted to Rocket and stored by Rocket. After registration MailChimp will send you an e-mail to confirm your registration. Furthermore, MailChimp offers various analysis options on how to open and use the sent newsletters, e.g. how many users sent an e-mail, whether e-mails were rejected, and whether users logged out of the list after receiving an e-mail. These analyzes are not used by us for individual evaluation. MailChimp also uses the Google Analytics analytics tool from Google, Inc and may include it in the newsletters.
