Privacy Policy
Personal data (hereinafter mostly referred to as “data”) is processed by us only to the extent necessary and for the purpose of providing a functional and user-friendly website, including its content and the services offered there.
According to Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), “processing” means any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means. This includes 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.
With the following privacy policy, we inform you in particular about the nature, scope, purpose, duration, and legal basis of the processing of personal data where we determine the purposes and means of such processing, either alone or jointly with others. We also inform you about third-party components used for optimization purposes and to improve usability, where such third parties process data under their own responsibility.
Our privacy policy is structured as follows:
- I. Information about us as the controller
- II. Rights of users and data subjects
- III. Information on data processing

II. Rights of users and data subjects
With regard to the data processing described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right:
- to obtain confirmation as to whether data concerning them is being processed, access to the processed data, further information about the processing, and copies of the data (Article 15 GDPR);
- to rectification or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data (Article 16 GDPR);
- to immediate erasure of data concerning them (Article 17 GDPR) or, alternatively, where further processing is required under Article 17(3) GDPR, to restriction of processing under Article 18 GDPR;
- to receive the data concerning them that they have provided and to have that data transmitted to another controller (Article 20 GDPR);
- to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if they believe that data concerning them is being processed in breach of data protection law (Article 77 GDPR).
In addition, the provider is obliged to inform all recipients to whom data has been disclosed of any rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. Regardless of this, the user has the right to be informed about those recipients.
Users and data subjects also have the right under Article 21 GDPR to object to the future processing of data concerning them where the data is processed on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to processing for direct marketing purposes is permissible.
III. Information on data processing
Data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies, provided that no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion and no other information is provided below regarding individual processing procedures.
Server data
For technical reasons, the following data sent by your internet browser to us or to our server provider will be collected, especially to ensure a secure and stable website: These server log files record the type and version of your browser, operating system, the website from which you came (referrer URL), the webpages on our site visited, the date and time of your visit, as well as the IP address from which you visited our site.
The data thus collected will be temporarily stored, but not in association with any other of your data.
The basis for this storage is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality, and security of our website.
The data will be deleted within no more than seven days, unless continued storage is required for evidentiary purposes. In which case, all or part of the data will be excluded from deletion until the investigation of the relevant incident is finally resolved.
We maintain an online presence on LinkedIn to present our company and our services and to communicate with customers/prospects. LinkedIn is a service of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Irland, a subsidiary of LinkedIn Corporation, 1000 W. Maude Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, USA.
We would like to point out that this might cause user data to be processed outside the European Union, particularly in the United States. This may increase risks for users that, for example, may make subsequent access to the user data more difficult. We also do not have access to this user data. Access is only available to LinkedIn.
