Collection of general information
When you access our website, information of a general nature is automatically collected. This information
(server log files) includes the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name
of your Internet service provider and similar information. This is exclusively information which
does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person. This information is technically necessary
in order to correctly deliver the content you have requested from websites and is mandatory when
using the Internet. Anonymous information of this kind is statistically evaluated by us in order
to optimize our Internet presence and the technology behind it.
Cookie policy
Cookies are small text files that are stored in a computer’s browser directory. They help site
providers with things like understanding how people use a site, remembering a User’s login details,
and storing site preferences.
Contact form
If you contact us by e-mail or contact form, the information you have provided will be stored for
the purpose of processing your inquiry and for possible follow-up questions.
Use of Google reCAPTCHA
This website uses Google reCAPTCHA, a service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). reCAPTCHA is
designed to protect our website's services - specifically our newsletter and signup endpoints -
from automated abuse such as spam and bots. This works by collecting hardware and software information,
such as device and application data, and sending these data to Google for analysis.
Google reCAPTCHA service works by evaluating various information (e.g. IP address, the website
visitor’s behavior, the time the visitor spends on the website, etc.) to differentiate between
human actions and automated abuse.
The use of Google reCAPTCHA is subject to Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. The data collected
by reCAPTCHA is held in accordance with Google’s Privacy Policy. Google uses and shares this data
to improve its services and personalized ads.
By using our website and agreeing to this Privacy Policy, you consent to the use of Google reCAPTCHA
API as described above. If you do not wish to subject your use of our website to this analysis
by Google reCAPTCHA, do not access the services protected by Google reCAPTCHA on our website.
Use of Self-Hosted Plausible Analytics
This website uses a self-hosted version of Plausible Analytics, a privacy-focused web analytics
service. Plausible Analytics is designed to understand and analyze the usage of our website, but
it does not collect any personal data or personally identifiable information (PII), does not use
cookies, and respects the privacy of our website visitors.
All site measurements carried out by Plausible Analytics are done entirely anonymously. The data
collected is in aggregate form only, providing us with insights to help us improve our site while
ensuring you continue to have a privacy-respected experience.
Our self-hosted Plausible Analytics is open-source software, maintained by our team on our own
server infrastructure. This means we retain full control and ownership of the analytics data, without
any third-party involvement. This data is neither sent to, shared with, nor sold to any third parties.
Deletion or blocking of data
We adhere to the principles of data avoidance and data economy. We therefore only store your personal
data for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes stated here or as provided for in the
various storage periods provided for by law. After the respective purpose or expiry of these periods,
the corresponding data will be blocked or deleted as a matter of routine and in accordance with
statutory regulations.
Your rights to information, correction, blocking, deletion and objection
You have the right to receive information about your personal data stored by us at any time. You
also have the right to correct, block or, apart from the prescribed data storage for business transactions,
delete your personal data. Please contact our data protection officer. You will find the contact
details at the bottom. To ensure that data can be locked at any time, this data must be kept in
a lock file for control purposes. You can also request the deletion of the data, as far as no legal
archiving obligation exists. If such an obligation exists, we will block your data on request.
You can make changes or withdraw your consent by notifying us accordingly with effect for the future.
Changes to our data protection regulations
We reserve the right to occasionally adapt this data protection declaration so that it always complies
with current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services in the data protection
declaration, e.g. when introducing new services. The new data protection declaration will then
apply for your next visit.
