Server data (server log files):

For technical reasons, our web hosting provider collects data about access to this website and saves it as server log files. We have no influence on the collection of this data.

The web servers generate temporary protocols/log files which contain the following information:

• IP address/host name of the accessing computer,
• date and time of access,
• Browser type and browser version used by the user,
• Operating system used by the user,
• Referrer URL (host name and IP address of the accessing computer, reference to the user’s country of origin)
• amount of data transferred in bytes;

This data is only used for statistical evaluation and to optimize our website and is automatically deleted by the provider on a regular basis.

The data collected does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about a specific person.
We reserve the right to check the server log files if concrete indications of illegal use are identified.

Data transfer and data security:

Note: This website is not encrypted. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet can have security gaps. A complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible for us.

We recommend that you never send confidential data unencrypted by e-mail.

We make every effort to save your personal data by using all the technical and organizational options available to us in such a way that they are inaccessible to third parties.

Therefore, the data is stored in an environment that is secure through technical measures or on external data carriers. Only a few authorized persons can handle your data.

Technical definitions and explanations

Cookies:

There are practically no websites that do not work with so-called cookies – this website also uses such cookies. They do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain any viruses, but serve to make websites as user-friendly as possible. Also, no personal user data can be “spied on”, no harmful program code is included.

First-party cookies are generated by our own website, third-party cookies are generated by other websites (e.g. Google Analytics).
There are three categories of cookies:

• Strictly necessary cookies to ensure basic functions of the website
• functional cookies to ensure the performance of the website
• Targeting cookies to improve user experience.

These are small text files that are stored on your end device with the help of the browser. This can be the case, for example, when you visit an international website, where you select “German” as the default language instead of “English” the first time.

If you visit again some time later, you will be recognized as a “German”-speaking visitor and it is also possible that the search terms you used last or the pages you last visited will be found again immediately. So cookies can be very helpful.

Some cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them.

If you do not want this, you can also set up your browser so that it informs you about the setting of cookies and you only allow this in individual cases or completely prevent it.

However, the functionality of a website may be restricted if cookies are deactivated.

We mostly use so-called session cookies (session ID), which are deleted immediately after the browser is closed.

In addition, third-party cookies such as Google, Google+, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, YouTube etc. may be used.

Integration of services and content by third parties

Our website is continuously being developed and adapted to the needs of our site visitors. Accordingly, modules may also be used in the future that have not yet been included in this data protection declaration as of today.

To avoid any omissions, here are the most common third-party products, modules, plug-ins, and services that we are likely to use, but do not necessarily have installed and enabled.
It is similar to a package insert: Side effects may occur but are unlikely to be expected.

These can be various modules, plug-ins and techniques that come from third parties who also use cookies.

These are often, for example, videos on YouTube, map material from Google Maps or page content (content) from external websites, which are integrated into our websites using i-frames after the relevant approval has been obtained (e.g. live webcam images, etc.).

Third- party providers must record the IP address of the site visitor, because without this IP address the content could not be displayed by the browser of the respective user.

It’s like sending parcels: without an address, parcels cannot be delivered.
The collection of the IP address is therefore necessary for the delivery of these data packages or content.

We endeavor to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, we have no influence on whether the third-party providers use these IP addresses, e.g. B. save for statistical purposes.

We have no influence on the functionality and data security of these third-party products and we expressly point out that their behavior is not our responsibility.

Should we become aware of malfunctions, undesirable reactions or questionable events through the use of these modules, we will immediately deactivate them, remove them, replace them with alternative modules or refrain from using them altogether.

Google Maps Privacy Policy

It is possible that the maps from Google Maps from Google Inc., based at 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, (USA), are already embedded or linked on this website or will be used in the future.

Each time the Google Maps component is called up, Google sets a cookie in order to process user settings and data when the page on which the “Google Maps” component is integrated is displayed. As a rule, this cookie is not deleted by closing the browser, but expires after a certain period of time, unless you delete it manually beforehand.

If you as a user do not agree to this processing of your data, you have the option of deactivating the Google Maps service and thereby preventing the transmission of data to Google. To do this, you must deactivate Javascript in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use Google Maps or only to a limited extent.

Additional information can be found on Google (Terms of Use)External link

and on Google Maps (Terms of Use)External link .

Google Analytics Privacy Policy

It is possible that the functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics are already being used on this website or that they will be used in the future.

When you visit our website, your page visit can be statistically evaluated. This is mainly done with cookies and so-called analysis programs. The analysis is usually anonymous and cannot be traced back to you.

You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools. You will find detailed information on this in the following data protection declaration.

The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics uses target-oriented cookies.

The information generated by cookies when you visit this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
If IP anonymization is activated on this website, however, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

You can find more information on how Google Analytics handles user data in the Google data protection declaration: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de

Prevent data collection – with browser plugin

You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; we would like to point out to you however that in this case you will if applicable not be able to use all functions of this website in full.

You can prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com .com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

Google Analytics Remarketing

It is possible that the functions of Google Analytics Remarketing in connection with the cross-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick are already being used on this website or that they will be used in the future. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

This function makes it possible to link the advertising target groups created with Google Analytics Remarketing to the cross-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. In this way, interest-related, personalized advertising messages that have been adapted to you depending on your previous usage and surfing behavior on one end device (e.g. mobile phone) can also be displayed on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

If you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browser history to your Google account for this purpose. In this way, the same personalized advertising messages can be placed on every device on which you log in with your Google account.

To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated user IDs, which are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create audiences for cross-device advertising.

You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by deactivating personalized advertising in your Google account; follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/ .

The summary of the recorded data in your Google account is based solely on your consent, which you can give or revoke with Google (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). In the case of data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g. because you do not have a Google account or have objected to the merger), the collection of data is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest results from the fact that the website operator has an interest in the anonymous analysis of website visitors for advertising purposes.

Further information and the data protection regulations can be found in Google’s data protection declaration at: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/ .

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking

AdWords is an online advertising program from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).

As part of Google AdWords, we use so-called conversion tracking. If you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie will be set for conversion tracking. Cookies are small text files that the Internet browser stores on the user’s computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked through AdWords advertisers’ websites. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers find out the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified. If you do not wish to participate in the tracking, you can object to this use by easily deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie in your Internet browser under user settings.

“Conversion cookies” are stored on the basis of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.

You can find more information about Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking in Google’s data protection regulations: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/ .

The registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process in accordance with the legal requirements. This includes storing the time of registration and confirmation as well as the IP address. Changes to your data stored by MailChimp are also logged.

Use of “MailChimp”

It is possible that functions of the shipping service provider “MailChimp” are already being used on this website or will be used in the future.

The newsletter is sent using “MailChimp”, a newsletter mailing platform from the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.

The e-mail addresses of our newsletter recipients, as well as their other data described in this notice, are stored on the MailChimp servers in the USA. MailChimp uses this information to send and evaluate the newsletter on our behalf. Furthermore, according to its own information, MailChimp can use this data to optimize or improve its own services, e.g. for the technical optimization of the dispatch and the presentation of the newsletter or for economic purposes, in order to determine from which countries the recipients come. However, MailChimp does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them or pass them on to third parties.

We trust in the reliability and the IT and data security of MailChimp. MailChimp is certified under the US-EU data protection agreement ” Privacy Shield ” and is therefore committed to complying with EU data protection regulations. Furthermore, we have concluded a “ data processing agreement ” with MailChimp. This is a contract in which MailChimp undertakes to protect the data of our users, to process it on our behalf in accordance with their data protection regulations and, in particular, not to pass it on to third parties. You can view MailChimp’s privacy policy here .

Credentials

To register for the newsletter, it is sufficient if you enter your e-mail address.
Optionally, we ask you to enter your first and last name. This information is only used to personalize the newsletter. Furthermore, we also ask you to optionally indicate your age, gender and hobbies. We only use this information to adapt the content of the newsletter to the interests of our readers.

Statistical survey and analysis

The newsletters contain a so-called “web beacon”, ie a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the MailChimp server when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval, are initially collected. This information is used to technically improve the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined using the IP address) or the access times.

The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our aim nor that of MailChimp to monitor individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users.

Online retrieval and data management

There are cases in which we direct the newsletter recipients to the MailChimp websites. For example, our newsletter contains a link with which the newsletter recipient can access the newsletter online (e.g. in the event of display problems in the e-mail program). Furthermore, newsletter recipients can subsequently correct their data, such as their e-mail address. Likewise, MailChimp’s data protection declaration can only be accessed on their website.

In this context, we pointed out that cookies are used on the MailChimp websites and that personal data is processed by MailChimp, its partners and the service providers used (e.g. Google Analytics). We have no influence on this data collection. For more information, see MailChimp ‘s privacy policy. We would also like to draw your attention to the possibility of objecting to data collection for advertising purposes on the websites http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ and http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ (for the European area).

Termination/Revocation

You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, ie revoke your consent. At the same time, your consent to its dispatch via MailChimp and the statistical analyzes expire. A separate revocation of the dispatch via MailChimp or the statistical evaluation is unfortunately not possible.

You will find a link to cancel the newsletter at the end of each newsletter.
