information on the use of cookies

Scope of the processing of personal data
We use cookies on various pages to enable the use of certain functions on our website. The socalled ‘cookies’ are small text files that your browser can store on your computer. These text files
contain a characteristic string of characters that enable the browser to be uniquely identified when
our website is called up again. The process of placing a cookie file is also called ‘setting a cookie’.
Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Art. 6 para.1 lit. f DSGVO (legitimate interest). Our legitimate interest is to maintain the full
functionality of our website, to increase usability and to enable a more individualised customer
approach. We are only able to identify individual site visitors with the help of cookie technology if the
site visitor has previously provided us with corresponding personal data on the basis of separate
consent.

Purpose of data processing

Cookies are set by our website in order to maintain the full functionality of our website and to
improve usability. In addition, cookie technology enables us to recognise individual visitors through
pseudonyms, e.g. an individual, arbitrary ID, so that it is possible for us to offer more individualised
services.

Duration of storage

Our cookies are stored until they are deleted in your browser or, in the case of a session cookie,
until the session has expired.

Possibility of objection and removal

You can set your browser yourself according to your wishes so that the setting of cookies is
generally prevented. You can then decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept cookies or
accept cookies in principle. Cookies can be used for various purposes, e.g. to recognise that your PC
has already had a connection to our website (persistent cookies) or to save recently viewed offers
(session cookies). We use cookies to provide you with increased user comfort. In order to use our
comfort functions, we recommend that you allow the acceptance of cookies for our web offer. The
options for objection and removal are also based on the general regulations on the right of objection
and deletion under data protection law described below in this data protection declaration.
. Data security and data protection, communication by e-mail
Your personal data is protected by technical and organisational measures during collection, storage
and processing in such a way that it is not accessible to third parties. In the case of unencrypted
communication by e-mail, we cannot guarantee complete data security on the transmission path to
our IT systems, so that we recommend encrypted communication or the postal service for
information requiring a high level of confidentiality.

You have the right to obtain information about your stored data free of charge at appropriate
intervals and the right to correct, block or delete your data at any time. Your data will be deleted by

right to data portability

You have the right to demand that we provide you with the data concerning your person that you
have transmitted to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format. You can also demand
that we transfer this data to a third party immediately upon your first instruction, provided that the
processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO or Art. 9 Para. 2 lit. a DSGVO or
on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO and the processing is carried out by us within the
framework of automated data processing.
When exercising this right of data portability, you also have the right to have the personal data
concerning you transferred directly to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. The
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.

right of appeal to the supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 Para. 1 DSGVO

If you suspect that your data is being processed unlawfully on our site, you can of course bring about
a judicial clarification of the issue at any time. Independently of this, you have the option of
contacting a supervisory authority. You have the right to complain in the EU Member State of your
place of residence, place of work and/or place of the alleged infringement, i.e. you can choose the
supervisory authority to which you turn in the above-mentioned places. The supervisory authority to
which the complaint has been lodged will then inform you of the status and outcome of your
submission, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 GDPR.
