Access data (server log files)

When you access our website, we automatically collect and store in so-called server log files access data that your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

Browser type and browser version of your PC Operating system used by your PC Referrer URL (source/reference from which you came to our website) Host name of the accessing computer Date and time of the server request The IP address currently used by your PC (if necessary, in anonymized form).

As a rule, it is not possible for us to make a personal reference, nor is it intended to do so. The processing of such data is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO to protect our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.

Cookies

In order to make visiting our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your terminal device. Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your computer system.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions you have requested are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. We have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of our services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analyzing your surfing behavior) are stored, these are treated separately in this privacy policy.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies". They are automatically deleted after the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, as well as automatically delete the cookies. When cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be limited.

§1 Web analytics tools and advertising

Google Maps

Our website uses the map service Google Maps of Google Ireland Ltd, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google") via an API (Application Programming Interface).

To ensure data protection on our website, Google Maps is deactivated when you first enter our website. A direct connection to Google's servers is only established if you consent to the cookies (consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). This prevents your data from being transferred to Google the first time you enter our website.

After activation, Google Maps will store your IP address. This is then usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transmission after activation of Google Maps.

More information on the handling of user data can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

Contact form

If you contact us by e-mail or via a contact form, transmitted data including your contact information will be stored in order to process your request or to be available for follow-up questions. This data will not be passed on without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). A revocation of your already given consent is possible at any time. An informal communication by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Data transmitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or there is no longer any need to store it. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

Use and forwarding of data

We will neither sell to third parties nor otherwise market the personal data that you provide to us, e.g. by e-mail (e.g. your name and address or e-mail address). Your personal data will only be processed for correspondence with you and only for the purpose for which you have provided us with the data. In order to process payments, we pass on your payment data to the credit institution commissioned with the payment.

The use of data that is automatically collected during your visit to our website is only for the aforementioned purposes. The data will not be used for any other purpose.

We assure you that we will not pass on your personal data to third parties unless we are legally obliged to do so or you have given us your prior consent.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests that you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

§2 Storage period

Personal data that has been communicated to us via our website will only be stored until the purpose for which it was entrusted to us has been fulfilled. Insofar as retention periods under commercial and tax law must be observed, the storage period for certain data may be up to 10 years.

§3 Data subject rights

With regard to the personal data concerning you, as a data subject, you have the following rights vis-à-vis the data controller in accordance with the statutory provisions:

3.1 Right of revocation

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. If the processing of your data is based on your consent, you have the right to revoke consent to the processing of data, once given, at any time with effect for the future in accordance with Article 7 (3) DSGVO. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation. Storage of data for billing and accounting purposes remains unaffected by a revocation.

3.2 Right to information

Pursuant to Art. 15 DSGVO, you have the right to request confirmation from us as to whether we are processing personal data relating to you. If such processing exists, you have the right to obtain information about your personal data processed by us, the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your data have been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period or the criteria for determining the storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection to processing, complaint to a supervisory authority, the origin of your data if it has not been collected from you by us, the existence of automated decision-making including profiling and, if applicable, meaningful information about the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing concerning you, as well as your right to be informed about which guarantees exist in accordance with Art. 46 DSGVO when your data is transferred to third countries.

3.3 Right to rectification

In accordance with Art. 16 DSGVO, you have the right to demand immediate correction of any inaccurate personal data concerning you and/or completion of your incomplete data at any time.

3.4 Right to deletion

In accordance with Art. 17 DSGVO, you have the right to request the deletion of your personal data if one of the following reasons applies:

Your personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed;

You revoke your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) or Art. 9(2)(a) DSGVO and there is no other legal basis for the processing;

You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (2) DSGVO;

The personal data have been processed unlawfully;

The erasure of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member State to which we are subject;

The personal data has been collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Article 8(1) of the GDPR;

However, this right does not exist insofar as the processing is necessary:

For the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information;

for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing under the law of the

Union or the Member State to which we are subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us;

for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) DSGVO;

for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) DSGVO, insofar as the data subject right is likely to render impossible or seriously prejudice the achievement of the purposes of such processing; or

for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If we have made your personal data public and we are obliged to erase it in accordance with the above, we shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform data controllers processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested that they erase all links to your personal data or copies or replications of such personal data, taking into account the available technology and the cost of implementation.

3.5 Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of processing (blocking) of your personal data in accordance with Art. 18 DSGVO. To do this, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

a) If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

b) If the processing of your personal data has happened / is happening unlawfully, you can demand the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

c) If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of erasure.

d) If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, a balancing of your and our interests must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may - apart from being stored - only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

3.6 Right to information

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against us, we are obliged to inform all recipients to whom your personal data have been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. In accordance with Art. 19 DSGVO, you have the right to be informed about these recipients upon request.

3.7 Right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling.

In accordance with Article 22 of the GDPR, you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling - which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

This does not apply if the decision

a) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and us,

b) is permissible on the basis of legal provisions of the Union or the Member States to which the controller is subject and these legal provisions contain appropriate measures to protect your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, or

However, in the cases mentioned in (a) to (c), the decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.

In the cases referred to in (a) and (c), we take reasonable steps to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, including at least the right to

Intervention by a person on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to challenge the decision.

3.8 Right to data portability

If the processing is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) DSGVO or Art. 9(2)(a) DSGVO or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) DSGVO and is carried out with the help of automated processes, you have the right, pursuant to Art. 20 DSGVO, to receive your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format and to transfer it to another controller or to request that it be transferred to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible.

3.9 Right of objection

Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on the balance of interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on this provision. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims (objection under Article 21(1) DSGVO).

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be processed (objection under Article 21(1) DSGVO).

You have the possibility, in connection with the use of information society services - notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC - to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

3.10 Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 DSGVO.

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have a right of appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged violation. The right of appeal is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

The supervisory authority responsible for us is:

The State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of Baden-Württemberg.

P.O. Box 10 29 32 70025 Stuttgart
