Principle of anonymous Data collection

Generally the use of this website does not require the disclosure of personal data. The rules may differ for some services of this website. These services are explained in detail in the following.

While calling up my website some information like your IP-address is transmitted. This information may disclose the type of used terminal device (e.g., computer, smartphone, tablet), the type of browser (Internetexplorer, Safari, Fire-Fox, etc.), the time of access to the website, the refferer and the volume of the transmitted data.
I am not able to use this data to identify a certain user. The information is used to determine the attractiveness of this website and to improve the performance.
Please note that a static IP-address can disclose personal data via a RIPE-request in individual cases. This website can be accessed by static and dynamic IP-addresses.

Personal Data

The meaning of "personal data" is defined in the German Federal Data Protection Act and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Personal data is defined as any information concerning the personal or material circumstances of an identified or identifiable individual. This includes information such as your name, your address, your telephone number or your date of birth.

Legal basis for the collection of personal data

Insofar as I obtain your consent for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of your personal data.
When processing your personal data to fulfil a contract between you and me, Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which I am subject, Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary to safeguard my legitimate interests and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

Data erasure and storage time

The personal data of the person concerned will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Furthermore, data may be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the person responsible is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

• Right to correction: If the information I have collected from you is incorrect or incomplete, you may immediately request me to correct it in accordance with Article 16 of the GDPR.
• Right to limitation of processing: Under the conditions of Article 18 of the GDPR, you may also request that the processing of personal data concerning you be restricted. After the restriction, your data may only be processed with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending rights, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or on grounds of an important public interest of the Union or a Member State. I will inform you before the restriction is lifted.
• Right to erasure: If one of the reasons in Article 17 (1) GDPR applies, you can request me to delete your personal data immediately, unless there is an exception to the deletion obligation in accordance with Article 17 (3) GDPR.
• Right to information: If you have exercised your right to correct, delete or restrict processing against me, I am obliged under Article 19 GDPR to inform all recipients of your personal data of this, unless the notification is impossible or involves disproportionate effort. They also have the right to be informed of the recipients. The person responsible shall have the right to be informed of such recipients.
• Right to data portability: In addition, according to Article 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive personal data concerning you from me in machine-readable format and to transmit the data to another person responsible without obstruction, provided that the requirements of Article 20 para. 1 lit. a GDPR are met, or to obtain that your personal data are transmitted directly by me to another person responsible, provided that this is technically feasible and no freedoms and rights of other persons are impaired thereby.

• Right of objection: You have the right to object at any time to me processing your personal data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.

The revocation of consent shall not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation.
