General information

The following information provides an overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website. “Personal data” includes any information that can be used to personally identify you. For detailed information, please consult the full Data Protection Declaration below.

Data recording on this website

Who is responsible for the processing of data on this website?

The processing of your data is carried out by the website owner (Controller), while the website operator acts as a processor/technical administrator under their instructions.

The controller determines the purposes and means of processing personal data. The processor handles the technical operation of the website and data processing on behalf of the controller.

Storage duration

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for which it was collected no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, the deletion will take place after these reasons cease to apply.

Information on data transfer to the USA

Our website uses tools from companies based in the USA. When these tools are active, your personal information may be transferred to the US servers of these companies. The USA is not a safe third country within the meaning of EU data protection law. US companies may release personal data to security authorities, and US authorities (e.g., intelligence agencies) may process, evaluate, and permanently store your data. We have no influence over these activities.

Revocation of your consent to the processing of data

Data processing may require your consent. You can revoke it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

Right to object to data collection in special cases; right to object to direct advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling. You also have the right to object to direct advertising at any time (Art. 21(2) GDPR). If you object, your data will no longer be used for these purposes.

Right to log a complaint with the competent supervisory agency

In case of GDPR violations, data subjects may lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in their member state of residence or where the alleged violation occurred.

Right to data portability

You have the right to request your data in a machine-readable format and, if technically feasible, direct transfer to another controller.

SSL and/or TLS encryption

This website uses SSL/TLS encryption to protect data during transmission. Encrypted connections are recognized by "https://" and a lock icon in the browser.

Encrypted payment transactions on this website

Payment information (e.g., credit card, bank account) is transmitted via encrypted SSL/TLS connections. Third parties cannot read this data.

Information about, rectification and eradication of data

You can request information about your personal data, correct it, or have it deleted. Contact the address given under "Controller" for inquiries.

Right to demand processing restrictions

You may demand processing restrictions in cases such as disputed data accuracy, unlawful processing, or pending objections under Art. 21 GDPR.
