When you visit our website, personal data is processed in order to be able to display the content of the website on your device. In order for the pages to be displayed in your browser, the IP address of the end device you are using must be processed. There is also further information about the browser of your end device. We are obliged under data protection law to also guarantee the confidentiality and integrity of the personal data processed with our IT systems. For this purpose and for this interest, the following data is logged on the basis of a weighing of interests:

• IP address of the calling computer

The IP address will be deleted from all systems used in connection with the operation of this website after 7 days at the latest. We can then no longer establish a personal reference from the remaining data. The data is also used to identify and correct errors on the website.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses an SSL or TLS encryption. 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. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

contact form

We offer a contact form on our website, which you can use to request information about my products or services or to contact me in general. We have marked the data that you absolutely need to answer an inquiry as mandatory fields. Information on other data fields is voluntary. We need this information to process your request, to address you correctly and to send you an answer. The data processing takes place in the case of specific inquiries for the fulfillment of a contract or the initiation of a contract. In the case of general inquiries, the processing takes place on the basis of a balance of interests. Inquiries received via the contact form on our website are processed electronically by us in order to answer your inquiry. In this context, other people or departments and possibly third parties may also be informed of the form content that you have sent. The form data is transmitted over the Internet via encrypted connections.

Newsletter

You can also subscribe to an email newsletter on our website. In addition to the voluntary information in the respective form, we only process your e-mail address. However, this is also mandatory in order to be able to send you the newsletter. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time. Alternatively, you will find a link to unsubscribe in every newsletter email. In order to be able to analyze the popularity of my newsletter broadcasts and to be able to optimize them, we log when e-mails are opened and links are clicked. This usage analysis is based on a weighing of interests. You can object to this processing by unsubscribing from the newsletter.

web analytics

The web analysis tool "Google Analytics" is used on this website, a service offered by Google Ireland Limited. The purpose of the use is the "needs-based design" of this website, which is carried out on the basis of a weighing of interests.

These are text files that are stored on your computer and that enable an analysis of your use of the website. So-called "client IDs" are used, which are used to create pseudonymous user profiles that record the use of the website by a user on desktop computers and mobile devices. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Since we have activated the so-called IP anonymization on this website and have concluded a corresponding order processing contract with Google, 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. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google in the USA is certified according to the so-called "Privacy Shield" (list entry). An appropriate level of data protection is guaranteed by Google. You can prevent the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) being sent to Google and the processing of this data by Google by clicking on the following link (http://tools. google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de) and install the available browser plug-in.

Our profiles on SOCIAL MEDIA platforms

The company operates on

• XING
• LinkedIn
• Facebook
• Instagram

a social media site. You can find our contact details in my imprint. In addition to us, there is the operator of the social media platform itself. This is also another person responsible who carries out data processing over which we have only limited influence. At the points where we can influence and parameterize the data processing, we work towards the data protection-compliant handling by the operator of the social media platform within the scope of the possibilities available to us. In many places, however, we cannot influence the data processing by the operator of the social media platform and we do not know exactly which data they are processing.

Data processing by the operator of the social media platform

The operator of the social media platform uses web tracking methods. Web tracking can also take place regardless of whether you are logged in or registered on the social media platform. As already mentioned, we unfortunately have little influence on the web tracking methods of the social media platform. For example, we cannot turn them off. Please be aware: It cannot be ruled out that the provider of the social media platform uses your profile and behavioral data, for example to evaluate your habits, personal relationships, preferences, etc. In this respect, we have no influence on the processing of your data by the provider of the social media platform. You can find more detailed information on data processing by the provider of the social media platform and other options for objecting in the data protection declaration of the provider:

Purposes of processing personal data

We process the aforementioned data for the operation of our website and for the fulfillment of contractual obligations towards our customers or the protection of our legitimate interests. In the case of inquiries from you outside of an active customer relationship, we process the data for sales and advertising purposes. You can object to the use of your personal data for advertising purposes at any time.

Voluntary information

If you provide us with data voluntarily, for example in forms, and this is not required for the fulfillment of our contractual obligations, we process this data on the legitimate assumption that the processing and use of this data is in your interest.

Recipients / disclosure of data

Data that you provide to us will not be passed on to third parties. In particular, your data will not be passed on to third parties for their advertising purposes. However, we may use service providers to operate this website or for other products or services from us. Here it can happen that a service provider gains knowledge of personal data. We select our service providers carefully - especially with regard to data protection and data security - and take all data protection measures required for permissible data processing.

Data processing outside the European Union

As far as personal data is processed outside the European Union, you can see this from the previous statements.

Furthermore, you have the right to correction or deletion or to restriction of processing, insofar as you are legally entitled to this. Finally, you have the right to object to the processing within the framework of the legal requirements. A right to data portability also exists within the framework of data protection regulations.

deletion of data

We generally delete personal data when there is no need for further storage. A requirement can exist in particular if the data is still required in order to fulfill contractual services, to be able to check and grant or ward off warranty and, if applicable, guarantee claims. In the case of statutory storage obligations, deletion can only be considered after the respective storage obligation has expired.

The data you enter on our social media pages, e.g. B.
