Privacy Policy
Date: 16.11.2025
We are very pleased about your interest in our company. The use of our website is generally possible without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use specific services offered by our company via the website, the processing of personal data may become necessary. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
The processing of personal data — such as the name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject — is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and in compliance with the national data protection regulations applicable to us. Through this privacy policy, our company seeks to inform the public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, this privacy policy informs data subjects of the rights to which they are entitled.
As the controller, we have implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions can fundamentally have security vulnerabilities, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, such as by telephone.Wir freuen uns sehr über Ihr Interesse an unserem Unternehmen. Eine Nutzung der Internetseiten ist grundsätzlich ohne jede Angabe personenbezogener Daten möglich. Sofern eine betroffene Person besondere Services unseres Unternehmens über unsere Internetseite in Anspruch nehmen möchte, könnte jedoch eine Verarbeitung personenbezogener Daten erforderlich werden. Ist die Verarbeitung personenbezogener Daten erforderlich und besteht für eine solche Verarbeitung keine gesetzliche Grundlage, holen wir generell eine Einwilligung der betroffenen Person ein.
Definitions
This privacy policy is based on the terms used by the European legislator when adopting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our aim is to make this privacy policy easy to read and understand for both the general public and our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terminology used in advance.
We use the following terms, among others, in this privacy policy:
a) Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as the "data subject"). A natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.
b) Data subject
A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.
c) Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.
d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its future processing.
e) Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of such data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements.
f) Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Controller or person responsible for processing
The controller or person responsible for processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for their nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
h) Processor
A processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
i) Recipient
A recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or another body, to whom personal data is disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry under Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.
j) Third party
A third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor, and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.
k) Consent
Consent is any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes, by which they, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signify agreement to the processing of personal data relating to them.
Name and Address of the Controller
The controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation, other data protection laws applicable in the Member States of the European Union, and other provisions of a data protection nature is:

Cookies / SessionStorage / LocalStorage
Our websites use cookies, LocalStorage, and SessionStorage in part. These technologies help make our services more user-friendly, effective, and secure. LocalStorage and SessionStorage are technologies that allow your browser to store data on your computer or mobile device. Cookies are text files that are stored and saved on a computer system via an internet browser. You can prevent the use of cookies, LocalStorage, and SessionStorage through your browser settings.
Many websites and servers use cookies. Many of these cookies contain a so-called cookie ID — a unique identifier that allows websites and servers to associate the cookie with the specific internet browser in which it was stored. This enables visited websites and servers to distinguish the user’s individual browser from other browsers that store different cookies. A specific internet browser can thus be recognized and identified via its unique cookie ID.
The use of cookies allows us to offer users more user-friendly services that would not be possible without cookie storage.
Cookies help us optimize the information and offerings on our website with the user in mind. As mentioned above, they allow us to recognize returning users. This means, for example, that a user does not have to enter their login credentials every time they visit, because this is handled by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie for a shopping cart in an online store. The online store uses this cookie to remember the items a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart.
Users can permanently prevent the setting of cookies by adjusting the settings of their browser. Already stored cookies can be deleted at any time via the browser or other software tools. This is possible in all common internet browsers. However, disabling cookies may limit full functionality of the website.
Collection of General Data and Information
Each time the website is accessed by a user or an automated system, a series of general data and information is collected and stored in server log files. This data may include:
(1) browser types and versions,
(2) the operating system used by the accessing system,
(3) the website from which the system accesses our site (referrer),
(4) the subpages visited on our website,
(5) the date and time of access,
(6) the IP address,
(7) the internet service provider of the accessing system, and
(8) other similar data and information for threat prevention in case of attacks on our IT systems.
We do not use this general data and information to draw conclusions about the data subject. Instead, this information is needed to:
(1) properly deliver the content of our website,
(2) optimize our site and advertising,
(3) ensure long-term functionality of our IT systems and technology, and
(4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyberattack.
This anonymously collected data is analyzed statistically and also with the aim of increasing data protection and security within our company. This ensures the best possible level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous server log file data is stored separately from all personal data provided by the user.
Registration on Our Website
Users have the option to register on our website by providing personal data. The specific personal data transmitted to the controller is determined by the input fields used during registration. The personal data entered is collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller and for their own purposes. The controller may arrange for disclosure to one or more processors (e.g. shipping providers) who also use the data only internally and in accordance with the controller’s instructions.
When registering, the IP address assigned by the internet service provider (ISP), the date, and the time of registration are also stored. This data is stored to prevent misuse of our services and to allow, if necessary, the investigation of committed offenses. This makes such storage necessary to safeguard the controller. This data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a legal obligation or it is required for prosecution.
The registration of the data subject, by voluntarily providing personal data, enables the controller to offer content or services that may only be offered to registered users due to their nature. Registered persons may at any time change the personal data provided during registration or have it completely deleted from the controller's records.
Upon request, the controller provides any data subject with information about the personal data stored about them. Furthermore, the controller will correct or delete personal data at the request or notification of the data subject, provided this does not conflict with any legal retention requirements. All employees of the controller are available to the data subject as points of contact in this regard.
Contact Option via the Website
Due to legal regulations, our website contains information that enables rapid electronic contact with our company as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address for electronic mail (email address). If a data subject contacts the controller via email or a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored. Such voluntarily transmitted personal data is stored for the purpose of processing the inquiry or for contacting the data subject. This personal data is not disclosed to third parties.
Comment Function in the Blog on the Website
We offer users the opportunity to leave individual comments on specific blog posts on our website. A blog is a publicly accessible portal, typically managed on a website, where one or more individuals (bloggers or web bloggers) post articles or personal reflections in blog posts. Blog posts can generally be commented on by third parties.
If a data subject leaves a comment on the blog published on this website, information such as the time of the comment and the chosen username (pseudonym) will be stored and published along with the comment. Additionally, the IP address assigned by the internet service provider (ISP) to the data subject is logged. The storage of the IP address takes place for security reasons and in case the data subject violates the rights of third parties or posts unlawful content through a comment. The storage of this personal data is therefore in the legitimate interest of the controller, in order to be able to exculpate themselves if necessary in the event of a legal violation. This personal data will not be shared with third parties unless required by law or necessary for the controller’s legal defense.
Gravatar
For comments, the Gravatar service from Automattic is used. Gravatar compares your email address and, if you are registered there, displays your avatar image next to the comment. If you are not registered, no image will be displayed. Please note that all registered WordPress users are automatically also registered with Gravatar. Details about Gravatar can be found at:: https://de.gravatar.com
Routine Deletion and Blocking of Personal Data
The controller processes and stores the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or insofar as this is provided for by the European legislator or another competent legislator in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.
If the storage purpose ceases to apply or a legally prescribed storage period expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.
Rights of the Data Subject
a) Right to Confirmation
Every data subject has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning them is being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right, they may contact a staff member of the controller at any time.
b) Right of Access
Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right to obtain, at any time and free of charge, information from the controller about the personal data stored about them and a copy of that information. Furthermore, the European legislator grants the data subject access to the following details:
The purposes of processing
The categories of personal data processed
The recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or will be disclosed, in particular in third countries or to international organizations
If possible, the planned duration of storage of the personal data, or if not possible, the criteria used to determine that duration
The existence of the right to rectification or erasure of the personal data or to restriction of processing or objection to such processing
The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
If the data is not collected from the data subject: all available information about the source of the data
The existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, and meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and intended consequences of such processing
In addition, the data subject has the right to be informed whether personal data has been transferred to a third country or an international organization. If so, the data subject shall also have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.
c) Right to Rectification
Every data subject has the right to request the prompt correction of inaccurate personal data concerning them. Furthermore, the data subject has the right, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to request the completion of incomplete personal data — also by means of a supplementary statement.
d) Right to Erasure (“Right to Be Forgotten”)
Every data subject has the right to request that the controller erase personal data concerning them without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies, and the processing is not necessary:
The personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed
The data subject withdraws consent and there is no other legal ground for the processing
The data subject objects to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds
The personal data has been unlawfully processed
Erasure is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation
The data was collected in relation to the offer of information society services
If the personal data was made public and the controller is obliged to delete it, the controller shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the data that the data subject has requested the deletion of all links to or copies of the personal data, unless processing is still required.
e) Right to Restriction of Processing
Every data subject has the right to request the restriction of processing if one of the following conditions is met:
The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify its accuracy
The processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes erasure and requests restriction instead
The controller no longer needs the personal data, but the data subject needs it for legal claims
The data subject has objected to processing pending verification of legitimate grounds
f) Right to Data Portability
Every data subject has the right to receive the personal data they have provided to a controller in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller without hindrance, where:
The processing is based on consent or a contract
The processing is carried out by automated means
Furthermore, the data subject may request that the personal data be transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and where this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
g) Right to Object
Every data subject has the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.
In such cases, the controller will no longer process the personal data unless they can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If personal data is processed for direct marketing, the data subject has the right to object at any time. This also applies to profiling related to direct marketing. In such cases, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
h) Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling
Every data subject has the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning them or similarly significantly affects them, unless:
The decision is necessary for entering into or performing a contract
It is authorized by Union or Member State law with suitable safeguards
It is based on the data subject’s explicit consent
In such cases, appropriate measures are taken to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms, including the right to human intervention, to express their point of view, and to contest the decision.
i) Right to Withdraw Consent
Every data subject has the right to withdraw their consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
To exercise this right, the data subject may contact any staff member of the controller at any time.
Legal Basis for Processing
Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party — as is the case, for example, with processing operations required for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service — the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. The same applies to processing operations necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, such as inquiries about our products or services.
If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data — such as to comply with tax obligations — the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. In rare cases, processing of personal data may be necessary to protect vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This could be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured on our premises and their name, age, health insurance data, or other vital information had to be disclosed to a doctor, hospital, or third party. The processing would then be based on Article 6(1)(d) GDPR.
Ultimately, processing operations may be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. This legal basis applies to processing operations not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases, if processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. Such processing operations are permitted in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it considered that a legitimate interest might be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47, Sentence 2 GDPR).
Legitimate Interests Pursued by the Controller or a Third Party
Where processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest is the conduct of our business operations for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and shareholders.
Duration for Which Personal Data Is Stored
The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After this period expires, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer required for the fulfillment or initiation of a contract.
Statutory or Contractual Requirements for the Provision of Personal Data; Necessity for the Conclusion of a Contract; Obligation of the Data Subject to Provide Personal Data; Possible Consequences of Failure to Provide Data
We inform you that the provision of personal data is partially required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or may result from contractual obligations (e.g., information on the contracting party).
In some cases, it may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract that a data subject provides us with personal data which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.
Before providing personal data, the data subject may contact one of our staff members. The employee will clarify on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is legally or contractually required, or necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and what consequences a failure to provide it would have.
Existence of Automated Decision-Making
As a responsible company, we do not use automated decision-making or profiling.
