2) Data Collection When Visiting Our Website
2.1 When using our website purely for informational purposes, i.e., if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we only collect the data that your browser transmits to our server (so-called “server log files”). When you visit our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display the website:
The website visited
Date and time of access
Amount of data sent in bytes
Source/referring website from which you accessed the site

The processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR based on our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data is not passed on or used in any other way. However, we reserve the right to subsequently check the server log files if there are concrete indications of illegal use.
2.2 For security reasons and to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential content (e.g., orders or inquiries), this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the character string “https://” and the lock symbol in your browser line.
3) Hosting & Content Delivery Network
We use a hosting provider for the hosting of our website and the display of the content, who operates servers exclusively within the European Union, either directly or via selected subcontractors.
All data collected on our website is processed on these servers.
We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with the provider to ensure the protection of the data of our website visitors and to prohibit unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Some cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser (so-called “session cookies”), while others remain on your device longer and allow us to save page settings (“persistent cookies”). You can check the storage period in your browser’s cookie settings.
If personal data is also processed by individual cookies used by us, the processing is carried out in accordance with:
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (for contract performance)
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (with your consent)

When contacting us (e.g., via contact form or e-mail), personal data is collected. The specific data collected through the contact form is shown on the respective form. This data is stored and used solely for the purpose of answering your inquiry and for technical administration.
The legal basis for processing is our legitimate interest in responding to your inquiry in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
If your inquiry aims to conclude a contract, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as an additional legal basis.
Your data will be deleted after the final processing of your inquiry if it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter has been conclusively clarified and no statutory retention obligations oppose deletion.
6) Site Functionalities
Google reCAPTCHA
We use the CAPTCHA service of the following provider on this website:
Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.
Data may also be transferred to: Google LLC, USA.
For visual design of the captcha window, “Google Fonts” are used, which are fonts loaded from Google servers. No additional processing beyond the functionality of reCAPTCHA occurs.
The service verifies whether input is made by a human or abusively by automated processing and blocks spam, DDoS attacks, and similar threats.
To verify human interaction, the provider collects:
IP address of the device used
Browser and operating system data
Date and duration of the visit
This information is transmitted to Google’s servers for evaluation. Cookies may also be used, which are stored in the browser.
If these processing operations are based on cookies, they are only set with your explicit consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Consent may be revoked at any time via the cookie consent tool on this website.
If processing is carried out without cookies, the legal basis is our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in detecting individual responsibility and preventing misuse and spam.
We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google to ensure the protection of our website visitors’ data and to prohibit unauthorized data disclosure.
For data transfers to the USA, Google is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures an adequate level of data protection under a decision by the European Commission.

7) Tools and Other Services
Cookie Consent Tool
This website uses a so-called “cookie consent tool” to obtain valid user consents for cookies and cookie-based applications. When visiting the site, users are shown an interactive interface where they can grant consent via checkboxes.
Technically necessary cookies are set to store your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed.
If data such as IP address is processed for logging or assignment of cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR for our legitimate interest in legally compliant and user-friendly cookie management.
Additionally, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR applies as we are legally obligated to obtain consent for non-essential cookies.
If necessary, we have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider of the cookie consent tool to ensure the protection of the data.

Once you object, we will cease processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
9) Duration of Storage of Personal Data

Where legal retention periods apply to data processed on the basis of contractual obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR), the data will be deleted after the retention periods expire, unless continued storage is necessary for contract fulfillment or legal claims.
For data processed on the basis of legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR), the data will be stored until you exercise your right to object unless we can demonstrate overriding legitimate grounds.
