1. General Information on Data Processing
1.1 Scope of the Processing of Personal Data
We generally process the personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The processing of personal data is usually only carried out with the user’s consent. An exception applies in cases where it is not possible to obtain prior consent for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations.
1.2 Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data
Where we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Article 6.1.1.a of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.
When processing personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6.1.1.b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures.
Where the processing of personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6.1.1.c GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6.1.1.d GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or a third party, and such interests are not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, Article 6.1.1.f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
1.3. Data Deletion and Storage Duration
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for storage no longer applies. Data may also be stored if this has been provided for by European or national legislators in EU regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted when a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned regulations expires, unless further storage of the data is necessary for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.
2. Rights of the Data Subject
If your personal data is being processed, you are considered a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR, and you have the following rights against the data controller:
2.1 Right of Access
You have the right to request confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed.
If such processing is taking place, you can request the following information from the controller:
- the purposes for which the personal data is being processed;
- the categories of personal data that are being processed;
- the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed or will be disclosed;
- the planned duration of storage of the personal data concerning you, or, if specific information is not available, the criteria used to determine that duration;
- the existence of a right to request rectification or erasure of personal data concerning you, a right to restrict processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing;
- the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
- all available information about the source of the data, if the personal data was not collected from the data subject.
- the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, in accordance with Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR, and—at least in those cases—meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject.
You have the right to request information as to whether personal data concerning you has been transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you may request to be informed about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 46 GDPR relating to the transfer.
2.2 Right to Rectification
You have the right to request rectification and/or completion of your personal data from the controller if the personal data concerning you is incorrect or incomplete. The controller must carry out the correction without undue delay.
2.3 Right to Restriction of Processing
You may request the restriction of the processing of your personal data under the following conditions:
- if you contest the accuracy of your personal data for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
- the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of its use instead;
- the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims; or
- you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your own.
If the processing of your personal data has been restricted under the above conditions, such data—apart from being stored—may only be processed with your consent, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
If the restriction of processing has been implemented under the conditions mentioned above, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.
2.4. Right to Erasure
2.4.1. Obligation to Delete
You have the right to request from the controller the immediate erasure of personal data concerning you, and the controller is obliged to delete this data without undue delay if one of the following reasons applies:
- The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
- You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6.1.1.a or Article 9.2.a GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
- You object to the processing pursuant to Article 21.1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Article 21.2 GDPR.
- The personal data concerning you has been processed unlawfully.
- The erasure of the personal data concerning you is required for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.

a) Information to Third Parties
If the data controller has made your personal data public and is obliged to delete it in accordance with Article 17. 1 GDPR, they shall take reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform data controllers who process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the deletion of all links to this personal data or of copies or replications of this personal data.
b) Exceptions
The right to erasure does not exist, as far as the processing is necessary
- To exercise the right of freedom of expression and information.
- To fulfill a legal obligation that requires the processing under the law of the Union or of the Member States to which the controller is subject, or to perform a task that is in the public interest or is carried out in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
- For reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Article. 9.2.H and I as well as Article. 9. 3 GDPR;
- For archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89.1 GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of such processing, or
- To assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
2.5. Right to Notification
If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obligated to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.
You have the right to be informed about these recipients by the controller.
2.6. Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to the controller, in a structured, common and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data has been provided, if
- the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6.1.1.a DSGVO or Art. 9.2.a DSGVO or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6.1.1.b DSGVO and
- the processing is carried out by automated means.
In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transferred directly from one controller to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. Freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
2. 7. Right to Object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6.1.1.e or f GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.
The controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected to such direct marketing.
If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
You have the option to exercise your right of objection in connection with the use of Information Society services - notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC - by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.
2. 8. Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.
2. 9. Automated decision in individual cases, including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling - which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision
- is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the responsible party,
- is permissible on the basis of legal provisions of the Union or the Member States to which the responsible party is subject and these legal provisions contain appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests or
- is made with your express consent.
However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data according to Art. 9. 1 GDPR, unless Art. 9. 2 a or b GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to safeguard the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.
With regard to the cases mentioned in 1. and 3., the responsible party shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, which include at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the responsible party, to express one's point of view and to contest the decision.
2.10 Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority—particularly in the Member State of your residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement—if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you violates the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged will inform you of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Article 78 GDPR.

10.4. Use of Google Tag Manager
10.4.1 Scope of Processing Personal Data
We use Google Tag Manager (https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/), a service provided by Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, D04 E5W5, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as “Google”).
Google Tag Manager allows tags from Google services and third-party providers to be managed and embedded collectively on a website.
Tags are small code elements on a website that serve, among other things, to measure visitor numbers and behavior, assess the impact of online advertising and social channels, enable remarketing and targeting, and test and optimize web presence.
When a user visits the site, the current tag configuration is sent to their browser, containing instructions on which tags to trigger.
Google Tag Manager triggers other tags that may collect data themselves.
For more information, please refer to the corresponding sections of this privacy policy on those services.
Google Tag Manager itself does not access this data.
