Übersicht der Verarbeitungen
Die nachfolgende Übersicht fasst die Arten der verarbeiteten Daten und die Zwecke ihrer Verarbeitung zusammen und verweist auf die betroffenen Personen.

Kategorien betroffener Personen
Zwecke der Verarbeitung
Maßgebliche Rechtsgrundlagen
Maßgebliche Rechtsgrundlagen nach der DSGVO: Im Folgenden erhalten Sie eine Übersicht der Rechtsgrundlagen der DSGVO, auf deren Basis wir personenbezogene Daten verarbeiten. Bitte nehmen Sie zur Kenntnis, dass neben den Regelungen der DSGVO nationale Datenschutzvorgaben in Ihrem bzw. unserem Wohn- oder Sitzland gelten können. Sollten ferner im Einzelfall speziellere Rechtsgrundlagen maßgeblich sein, teilen wir Ihnen diese in der Datenschutzerklärung mit.
Nationale Datenschutzregelungen in Deutschland: Zusätzlich zu den Datenschutzregelungen der DSGVO gelten nationale Regelungen zum Datenschutz in Deutschland. Hierzu gehört insbesondere das Gesetz zum Schutz vor Missbrauch personenbezogener Daten bei der Datenverarbeitung (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz – BDSG). Das BDSG enthält insbesondere Spezialregelungen zum Recht auf Auskunft, zum Recht auf Löschung, zum Widerspruchsrecht, zur Verarbeitung besonderer Kategorien personenbezogener Daten, zur Verarbeitung für andere Zwecke und zur Übermittlung sowie automatisierten Entscheidungsfindung im Einzelfall einschließlich Profiling. Ferner können Landesdatenschutzgesetze der einzelnen Bundesländer zur Anwendung gelangen.
Sicherheitsmaßnahmen
Wir treffen nach Maßgabe der gesetzlichen Vorgaben unter Berücksichtigung des Stands der Technik, der Implementierungskosten und der Art, des Umfangs, der Umstände und der Zwecke der Verarbeitung sowie der unterschiedlichen Eintrittswahrscheinlichkeiten und des Ausmaßes der Bedrohung der Rechte und Freiheiten natürlicher Personen geeignete technische und organisatorische Maßnahmen, um ein dem Risiko angemessenes Schutzniveau zu gewährleisten.
Zu den Maßnahmen gehören insbesondere die Sicherung der Vertraulichkeit, Integrität und Verfügbarkeit von Daten durch Kontrolle des physischen und elektronischen Zugangs zu den Daten als auch des sie betreffenden Zugriffs, der Eingabe, der Weitergabe, der Sicherung der Verfügbarkeit und ihrer Trennung. Des Weiteren haben wir Verfahren eingerichtet, die eine Wahrnehmung von Betroffenenrechten, die Löschung von Daten und Reaktionen auf die Gefährdung der Daten gewährleisten. Ferner berücksichtigen wir den Schutz personenbezogener Daten bereits bei der Entwicklung bzw. Auswahl von Hardware, Software sowie Verfahren entsprechend dem Prinzip des Datenschutzes, durch Technikgestaltung und durch datenschutzfreundliche Voreinstellungen.
Kürzung der IP-Adresse: Sofern IP-Adressen von uns oder von den eingesetzten Dienstleistern und Technologien verarbeitet werden und die Verarbeitung einer vollständigen IP-Adresse nicht erforderlich ist, wird die IP-Adresse gekürzt (auch als "IP-Masking" bezeichnet). Hierbei werden die letzten beiden Ziffern, bzw. der letzte Teil der IP-Adresse nach einem Punkt entfernt, bzw. durch Platzhalter ersetzt. Mit der Kürzung der IP-Adresse soll die Identifizierung einer Person anhand ihrer IP-Adresse verhindert oder wesentlich erschwert werden.
Sicherung von Online-Verbindungen durch TLS-/SSL-Verschlüsselungstechnologie (HTTPS): Um die Daten der Nutzer, die über unsere Online-Dienste übertragen werden, vor unerlaubten Zugriffen zu schützen, setzen wir auf die TLS-/SSL-Verschlüsselungstechnologie. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) und Transport Layer Security (TLS) sind die Eckpfeiler der sicheren Datenübertragung im Internet. Diese Technologien verschlüsseln die Informationen, die zwischen der Website oder App und dem Browser des Nutzers (oder zwischen zwei Servern) übertragen werden, wodurch die Daten vor unbefugtem Zugriff geschützt sind. TLS, als die weiterentwickelte und sicherere Version von SSL, gewährleistet, dass alle Datenübertragungen den höchsten Sicherheitsstandards entsprechen. Wenn eine Website durch ein SSL-/TLS-Zertifikat gesichert ist, wird dies durch die Anzeige von HTTPS in der URL signalisiert. Dies dient als ein Indikator für die Nutzer, dass ihre Daten sicher und verschlüsselt übertragen werden.
Rechte der betroffenen Personen
Rechte der betroffenen Personen aus der DSGVO: Ihnen stehen als Betroffene nach der DSGVO verschiedene Rechte zu, die sich insbesondere aus Art. 15 bis 21 DSGVO ergeben:
Geschäftliche Leistungen
Wir verarbeiten Daten unserer Vertrags- und Geschäftspartner, z.B. Kunden und Interessenten (zusammenfassend als „Vertragspartner" bezeichnet), im Rahmen von vertraglichen und vergleichbaren Rechtsverhältnissen sowie damit verbundenen Maßnahmen und im Hinblick auf die Kommunikation mit den Vertragspartnern (oder vorvertraglich), etwa zur Beantwortung von Anfragen.
Wir verwenden diese Daten, um unsere vertraglichen Verpflichtungen zu erfüllen. Dazu gehören insbesondere die Pflichten zur Erbringung der vereinbarten Leistungen, etwaige Aktualisierungspflichten und Abhilfe bei Gewährleistungs- und sonstigen Leistungsstörungen. Darüber hinaus verwenden wir die Daten zur Wahrung unserer Rechte und zum Zwecke der mit diesen Pflichten verbundenen Verwaltungsaufgaben sowie der Unternehmensorganisation. Zudem verarbeiten wir die Daten auf Grundlage unserer berechtigten Interessen sowohl an einer ordnungsgemäßen und betriebswirtschaftlichen Geschäftsführung als auch an Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zum Schutz unserer Vertragspartner und unseres Geschäftsbetriebs vor Missbrauch, Gefährdung ihrer Daten, Geheimnisse, Informationen und Rechte (z.B. zur Beteiligung von Telekommunikations-, Transport- und sonstigen Hilfsdiensten sowie Subunternehmern, Banken, Steuer- und Rechtsberatern, Zahlungsdienstleistern oder Finanzbehörden). Im Rahmen des geltenden Rechts geben wir die Daten von Vertragspartnern nur insoweit an Dritte weiter, als dies für die vorgenannten Zwecke oder zur Erfüllung gesetzlicher Pflichten erforderlich ist. Über weitere Formen der Verarbeitung, etwa zu Marketingzwecken, werden die Vertragspartner im Rahmen dieser Datenschutzerklärung informiert.
Welche Daten für die vorgenannten Zwecke erforderlich sind, teilen wir den Vertragspartnern vor oder im Rahmen der Datenerhebung, z.B. in Onlineformularen, durch besondere Kennzeichnung (z.B. Farben) bzw. Symbole (z.B. Sternchen o. Ä.), oder persönlich mit.
Wir löschen die Daten nach Ablauf gesetzlicher Gewährleistungs- und vergleichbarer Pflichten, d. h. grundsätzlich nach vier Jahren, es sei denn, dass die Daten in einem Kundenkonto gespeichert werden, z.B., solange sie aus gesetzlichen Gründen der Archivierung aufbewahrt werden müssen (etwa für Steuerzwecke im Regelfall zehn Jahre). Daten, die uns im Rahmen eines Auftrags durch den Vertragspartner offengelegt wurden, löschen wir entsprechend den Vorgaben und grundsätzlich nach Ende des Auftrags.
Weitere Hinweise zu Verarbeitungsprozessen, Verfahren und Diensten:
Bereitstellung des Onlineangebots und Webhosting
Wir verarbeiten die Daten der Nutzer, um ihnen unsere Online-Dienste zur Verfügung stellen zu können. Zu diesem Zweck verarbeiten wir die IP-Adresse des Nutzers, die notwendig ist, um die Inhalte und Funktionen unserer Online-Dienste an den Browser oder das Endgerät der Nutzer zu übermitteln.
Weitere Hinweise zu Verarbeitungsprozessen, Verfahren und Diensten:
Einsatz von Cookies
Cookies sind kleine Textdateien bzw. sonstige Speichervermerke, die Informationen auf Endgeräten speichern und aus ihnen auslesen. Zum Beispiel, um den Log-in-Status in einem Nutzerkonto, einen Warenkorbinhalt in einem E-Shop, die aufgerufenen Inhalte oder verwendete Funktionen eines Onlineangebots zu speichern. Cookies können ferner in Bezug auf unterschiedliche Anliegen Einsatz finden, etwa zu Zwecken der Funktionsfähigkeit, der Sicherheit und des Komforts von Onlineangeboten sowie der Erstellung von Analysen der Besucherströme.
Hinweise zur Einwilligung:Wir setzen Cookies im Einklang mit den gesetzlichen Vorschriften ein. Daher holen wir von den Nutzern eine vorhergehende Einwilligung ein, es sei denn, sie ist laut Gesetzeslage nicht gefordert. Eine Erlaubnis ist insbesondere nicht notwendig, wenn das Speichern und das Auslesen der Informationen, also auch von Cookies, unbedingt erforderlich sind, um den Nutzern einen von ihnen ausdrücklich gewünschten Telemediendienst (also unser Onlineangebot) zur Verfügung zu stellen. Die widerrufliche Einwilligung wird ihnen gegenüber deutlich kommuniziert und enthält die Informationen zur jeweiligen Cookie-Nutzung.
Hinweise zu datenschutzrechtlichen Rechtsgrundlagen:
Auf welcher datenschutzrechtlichen Grundlage wir die personenbezogenen Daten der Nutzer mithilfe von Cookies verarbeiten, hängt davon ab, ob wir sie um eine Einwilligung bitten. Falls die Nutzer akzeptieren, ist die Rechtsgrundlage der Verwertung ihrer Daten die erklärte Einwilligung. Andernfalls werden die mithilfe von Cookies verwerteten Daten auf Grundlage unserer berechtigten Interessen (z.B. an einem betriebswirtschaftlichen Betrieb unseres Onlineangebots und der Verbesserung seiner Nutzbarkeit) verarbeitet oder, falls dies im Rahmen der Erfüllung unserer vertraglichen Pflichten erfolgt, wenn der Einsatz von Cookies erforderlich ist, um unseren vertraglichen Verpflichtungen nachzukommen. Zu welchen Zwecken die Cookies von uns verwertet werden, darüber klären wir im Laufe dieser Datenschutzerklärung oder im Rahmen von unseren Einwilligungs- und Verarbeitungsprozessen auf.
Speicherdauer:Im Hinblick auf die Speicherdauer werden die folgenden Arten von Cookies unterschieden:
Allgemeine Hinweise zum Widerruf und Widerspruch (Opt-out):Nutzer können die von ihnen abgegebenen Einwilligungen jederzeit widerrufen und zudem einen Widerspruch gegen die Verarbeitung entsprechend den gesetzlichen Vorgaben, auch mittels der Privatsphäre-Einstellungen ihres Browsers, erklären.
Weitere Hinweise zu Verarbeitungsprozessen, Verfahren und Diensten:
Kontakt- und Anfrageverwaltung
Bei der Kontaktaufnahme mit uns (z.B. per Post, Kontaktformular, E-Mail, Telefon oder via soziale Medien) sowie im Rahmen bestehender Nutzer- und Geschäftsbeziehungen werden die Angaben der anfragenden Personen verarbeitet, soweit dies zur Beantwortung der Kontaktanfragen und etwaiger angefragter Maßnahmen erforderlich ist.
Weitere Hinweise zu Verarbeitungsprozessen, Verfahren und Diensten:
Newsletter und elektronische Benachrichtigungen
Wir versenden Newsletter, E-Mails und weitere elektronische Benachrichtigungen (nachfolgend „Newsletter") ausschließlich mit der Einwilligung der Empfänger oder aufgrund einer gesetzlichen Grundlage.Hierzu wird das active campain newsletter tool verwendet.
Hierzu wird das active campain newsletter tool verwendet. Acitve Campain ist ein Tool für Online-Marketing. Das Tracking dient der Nachverfolgung von Handlungen einzelner Nutzer auf der Website und wird zur Individualisierung der Marketing Maßnahmen genutzt. https://www.activecampaign.com/legal/privacy-policy.
Sofern im Rahmen einer Anmeldung zum Newsletter dessen Inhalte genannt werden, sind diese Inhalte für die Einwilligung der Nutzer maßgeblich. Für die Anmeldung zu unserem Newsletter ist normalerweise die Angabe Ihrer E-Mail-Adresse ausreichend. Um Ihnen jedoch einen personalisierten Service bieten zu können, bitten wir gegebenenfalls um die Angabe Ihres Namens für eine persönliche Ansprache im Newsletter oder um weitere Informationen, falls diese für den Zweck des Newsletters notwendig sind.
Löschung und Einschränkung der Verarbeitung: Wir können die ausgetragenen E-Mail-Adressen bis zu drei Jahren auf Grundlage unserer berechtigten Interessen speichern, bevor wir sie löschen, um eine ehemals gegebene Einwilligung nachweisen zu können. Die Verarbeitung dieser Daten wird auf den Zweck einer potenziellen Abwehr von Ansprüchen beschränkt. Ein individueller Löschungsantrag ist jederzeit möglich, sofern zugleich das ehemalige Bestehen einer Einwilligung bestätigt wird. Im Fall von Pflichten zur dauerhaften Beachtung von Widersprüchen behalten wir uns die Speicherung der E-Mail-Adresse alleine zu diesem Zweck in einer Sperrliste (sogenannte „Blocklist") vor.
Die Protokollierung des Anmeldeverfahrens erfolgt auf Grundlage unserer berechtigten Interessen zum Zweck des Nachweises seines ordnungsgemäßen Ablaufs. Soweit wir einen Dienstleister mit dem Versand von E-Mails beauftragen, erfolgt dies auf Grundlage unserer berechtigten Interessen an einem effizienten und sicheren Versandsystem.

Informationen zu uns, unseren Leistungen, Aktionen und Angeboten.
Weitere Hinweise zu Verarbeitungsprozessen, Verfahren und Diensten:
Webanalyse, Monitoring und Optimierung
Die Webanalyse (auch als „Reichweitenmessung" bezeichnet) dient der Auswertung der Besucherströme unseres Onlineangebots und kann Verhalten, Interessen oder demografische Informationen zu den Besuchern, wie beispielsweise Alter oder Geschlecht, als pseudonyme Werte umfassen. Mithilfe der Reichweitenanalyse können wir zum Beispiel erkennen, zu welcher Zeit unser Onlineangebot oder dessen Funktionen beziehungsweise Inhalte am häufigsten genutzt werden, oder zur Wiederverwendung einladen. Ebenso ist es uns möglich, nachzuvollziehen, welche Bereiche der Optimierung bedürfen.
Neben der Webanalyse können wir auch Testverfahren einsetzen, um etwa unterschiedliche Versionen unseres Onlineangebots oder seiner Bestandteile zu testen und zu optimieren.
Sofern nachfolgend nicht anders angegeben, können zu diesen Zwecken Profile, also zu einem Nutzungsvorgang zusammengefasste Daten, angelegt und Informationen in einem Browser bzw. in einem Endgerät gespeichert und dann ausgelesen werden. Zu den erhobenen Angaben gehören insbesondere besuchte Websites und dort genutzte Elemente sowie technische Auskünfte, wie etwa der verwendete Browser, das benutzte Computersystem sowie Angaben zu Nutzungszeiten. Sofern sich Nutzer in die Erhebung ihrer Standortdaten uns gegenüber oder gegenüber den Anbietern der von uns eingesetzten Dienste einverstanden erklärt haben, ist auch die Verarbeitung von Standortdaten möglich.
Darüber hinaus werden die IP-Adressen der Nutzer gespeichert. Jedoch nutzen wir ein IP-Masking-Verfahren (d. h. Pseudonymisierung durch Kürzung der IP-Adresse) zum Schutz der Nutzer. Generell werden die im Rahmen von Webanalyse, A/B-Testings und Optimierung keine Klardaten der Nutzer (wie z.B. E-Mail-Adressen oder Namen) gespeichert, sondern Pseudonyme. Das heißt, wir als auch die Anbieter der eingesetzten Software kennen nicht die tatsächliche Identität der Nutzer, sondern nur die zum Zweck der jeweiligen Verfahren in deren Profilen gespeicherten Angaben.
Hinweise zu Rechtsgrundlagen: Sofern wir die Nutzer um deren Einwilligung in den Einsatz der Drittanbieter bitten, stellt die Rechtsgrundlage der Datenverarbeitung die Einwilligung dar. Ansonsten werden die Nutzerdaten auf Grundlage unserer berechtigten Interessen (d. h. Interesse an effizienten, wirtschaftlichen und empfängerfreundlichen Leistungen) verarbeitet. In diesem Zusammenhang möchten wir Sie auch auf die Informationen zur Verwendung von Cookies in dieser Datenschutzerklärung hinweisen.
Weitere Hinweise zu Verarbeitungsprozessen, Verfahren und Diensten:
Präsenzen in sozialen Netzwerken (Social Media)
Wir unterhalten Onlinepräsenzen innerhalb sozialer Netzwerke und verarbeiten in diesem Rahmen Nutzerdaten, um mit den dort aktiven Nutzern zu kommunizieren oder Informationen über uns anzubieten.
Wir weisen darauf hin, dass dabei Nutzerdaten außerhalb des Raumes der Europäischen Union verarbeitet werden können. Hierdurch können sich für die Nutzer Risiken ergeben, weil so zum Beispiel die Durchsetzung der Nutzerrechte erschwert werden könnte.
Ferner werden die Daten der Nutzer innerhalb sozialer Netzwerke im Regelfall für Marktforschungs- und Werbezwecke verarbeitet. So können beispielsweise anhand des Nutzungsverhaltens und sich daraus ergebender Interessen der Nutzer Nutzungsprofile erstellt werden. Letztere finden möglicherweise wiederum Verwendung, um etwa Werbeanzeigen innerhalb und außerhalb der Netzwerke zu schalten, die mutmaßlich den Interessen der Nutzer entsprechen. Daher werden im Regelfall Cookies auf den Rechnern der Nutzer gespeichert, in denen das Nutzungsverhalten und die Interessen der Nutzer gespeichert werden. Zudem können in den Nutzungsprofilen auch Daten unabhängig der von den Nutzern verwendeten Geräten gespeichert werden (insbesondere, wenn sie Mitglieder der jeweiligen Plattformen und dort eingeloggt sind).
Für eine detaillierte Darstellung der jeweiligen Verarbeitungsformen und der Widerspruchsmöglichkeiten (Opt-out) verweisen wir auf die Datenschutzerklärungen und Angaben der Betreiber der jeweiligen Netzwerke.
Auch im Fall von Auskunftsanfragen und der Geltendmachung von Betroffenenrechten weisen wir darauf hin, dass diese am effektivsten bei den Anbietern geltend gemacht werden können. Nur Letztere haben jeweils Zugriff auf die Nutzerdaten und können direkt entsprechende Maßnahmen ergreifen und Auskünfte geben. Sollten Sie dennoch Hilfe benötigen, dann können Sie sich an uns wenden.
Weitere Hinweise zu Verarbeitungsprozessen, Verfahren und Diensten:
Änderung und Aktualisierung
Wir bitten Sie, sich regelmäßig über den Inhalt unserer Datenschutzerklärung zu informieren. Wir passen die Datenschutzerklärung an, sobald die Änderungen der von uns durchgeführten Datenverarbeitungen dies erforderlich machen. Wir informieren Sie, sobald durch die Änderungen eine Mitwirkungshandlung Ihrerseits (z.B. Einwilligung) oder eine sonstige individuelle Benachrichtigung erforderlich wird.
Sofern wir in dieser Datenschutzerklärung Adressen und Kontaktinformationen von Unternehmen und Organisationen angeben, bitten wir zu beachten, dass die Adressen sich über die Zeit ändern können und bitten die Angaben vor Kontaktaufnahme zu prüfen.

Relevant legal bases
Relevant legal bases according to the GDPR: Below you will find an overview of the legal bases of the GDPR on the basis of which we process personal data. Please note that in addition to the provisions of the GDPR, national data protection regulations may apply in your or our country of residence or domicile. Should more specific legal bases also apply in individual cases, we will inform you of these in the privacy policy.
Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR) - The data subject has given their consent to the processing of their personal data for a specific purpose or several specific purposes.
Performance of a contract and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR) - Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.
Legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c) GDPR) - Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject.
Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR) - processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data.
National data protection regulations in Germany: In addition to the data protection regulations of the GDPR, national data protection regulations apply in Germany. These include, in particular, the Act on the Protection against Misuse of Personal Data in Data Processing (Federal Data Protection Act - BDSG). In particular, the BDSG contains special regulations on the right to information, the right to erasure, the right to object, the processing of special categories of personal data, processing for other purposes and transmission as well as automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling. Furthermore, state data protection laws of the individual federal states may apply.
Security measures
We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing as well as the different probabilities of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in order to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
The measures include, in particular, safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as access, input, disclosure, safeguarding availability and separation of the data. Furthermore, we have established procedures that ensure the exercise of data subject rights, the deletion of data and responses to data threats. Furthermore, we already take the protection of personal data into account during the development or selection of hardware, software and procedures in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings.
Shortening of the IP address: If IP addresses are processed by us or by the service providers and technologies used and the processing of a full IP address is not required, the IP address is truncated (also known as “IP masking”). The last two digits or the last part of the IP address after a dot are removed or replaced by placeholders. The purpose of shortening the IP address is to prevent or make it much more difficult to identify a person by their IP address.
Securing online connections using TLS/SSL encryption technology (HTTPS): To protect user data transmitted via our online services from unauthorized access, we use TLS/SSL encryption technology. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) are the cornerstones of secure data transmission on the Internet. These technologies encrypt the information transmitted between the website or app and the user's browser (or between two servers), protecting the data from unauthorized access. TLS, as the more advanced and secure version of SSL, ensures that all data transmissions meet the highest security standards. If a website is secured by an SSL/TLS certificate, this is signaled by the display of HTTPS in the URL. This serves as an indicator to users that their data is being transmitted securely and encrypted.
Rights of the data subjects
Rights of data subjects under the GDPR: As a data subject, you are entitled to various rights under the GDPR, which arise in particular from Art. 15 to 21 GDPR:
Right to object: You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions. If the personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
Right to withdraw consent: You have the right to withdraw any consent you have given at any time.
Right to information: You have the right to request confirmation as to whether the data in question is being processed and to information about this data as well as further information and a copy of the data in accordance with the legal requirements.
Right to rectification: You have the right to request the completion of data concerning you or the rectification of inaccurate data concerning you in accordance with the legal requirements.
Right to erasure and restriction of processing: In accordance with the legal requirements, you have the right to demand that data concerning you be erased immediately or, alternatively, to demand that the processing of the data be restricted in accordance with the legal requirements.
Right to data portability: You have the right to receive the data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format in accordance with the legal requirements or to request its transmission to another controller.
Complaint to the supervisory authority: Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the provisions of the GDPR.
Business services
We process data of our contractual and business partners, e.g. customers and interested parties (collectively referred to as “contractual partners”), in the context of contractual and comparable legal relationships and associated measures and with regard to communication with the contractual partners (or pre-contractual), for example to respond to inquiries.
We use this data to fulfill our contractual obligations. These include, in particular, the obligations to provide the agreed services, any updating obligations and remedies in the event of warranty and other service disruptions. In addition, we use the data to safeguard our rights and for the purpose of the administrative tasks associated with these obligations and the company organization. We also process the data on the basis of our legitimate interests both in the proper and efficient management of our business and in security measures to protect our contractual partners and our business operations from misuse, threats to their data, secrets, information and rights (e.g. to involve telecommunications, transport and other auxiliary services as well as subcontractors, banks, tax and legal advisors, payment service providers or tax authorities). Within the framework of the applicable law, we only pass on the data of contractual partners to third parties to the extent that this is necessary for the aforementioned purposes or to fulfill legal obligations. Contractual partners will be informed about other forms of processing, such as for marketing purposes, as part of this privacy policy.
We inform the contractual partners which data is required for the aforementioned purposes before or during data collection, e.g. in online forms, by means of special marking (e.g. colors) or symbols (e.g. asterisks or similar), or in person.
We delete the data after the expiry of statutory warranty and comparable obligations, i.e. generally after four years, unless the data is stored in a customer account, e.g. as long as it must be retained for legal archiving reasons (e.g. for tax purposes, generally ten years). We delete data disclosed to us by the contractual partner as part of an order in accordance with the specifications and generally after the end of the order.
Processed data types: inventory data (e.g. full name, residential address, contact information, customer number, etc.); payment data (e.g. bank details, invoices, payment history); contact data (e.g. postal and email addresses or telephone numbers). Contract data (e.g. subject matter of the contract, term, customer category).
Data subjects: Service recipients and clients; interested parties. Business and contractual partners.
Purposes of processing: Provision of contractual services and fulfilment of contractual obligations; communication; office and organizational procedures; organizational and administrative procedures. Business processes and business management procedures.

Further information on processing operations, procedures and services:
Agency services: We process our customers' data as part of our contractual services, which may include, for example, conceptual and strategic consulting, campaign planning, software and design development/consulting or maintenance, implementation of campaigns and processes, handling, server administration, data analysis/consulting services and training services; legal bases: contract fulfillment and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR).
Project and development services: We process the data of our customers and clients (hereinafter uniformly referred to as “customers”) in order to enable them to select, purchase or commission the selected services or works and associated activities as well as their payment and provision or execution or performance.
The required information is identified as such in the context of the conclusion of the contract, order or comparable contract and includes the information required for the provision of services and billing as well as contact information in order to be able to hold any consultations. Insofar as we receive access to information from end customers, employees or other persons, we process this in accordance with the legal and contractual requirements; legal basis: contract fulfillment and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR).
Provision of the online offering and web hosting
We process users' data in order to provide them with our online services. For this purpose, we process the user's IP address, which is necessary to transmit the content and functions of our online services to the user's browser or end device.
Processed data types: Usage data (e.g. page views and length of stay, click paths, intensity and frequency of use, device types and operating systems used, interactions with content and functions); meta, communication and procedural data (e.g. IP addresses, time data, identification numbers, persons involved).

The server log files may include the address and name of the web pages and files accessed, the date and time of access, data volumes transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page) and, as a rule, IP addresses and the requesting provider. The server log files can be used for security purposes, e.g. to avoid overloading the servers (especially in the event of abusive attacks, so-called DDoS attacks), and to ensure the utilization of the servers and their stability; legal basis: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR). Deletion of data: Log file information is stored for a maximum of 30 days and then deleted or anonymized. Data whose further storage is required for evidentiary purposes is excluded from deletion until the respective incident has been finally clarified.
Use of cookies
Cookies are small text files or other storage devices that store information on end devices and read it from them. For example, to store the log-in status in a user account, the contents of a shopping cart in an e-shop, the content accessed or the functions used in an online offering. Cookies can also be used for various purposes, for example to ensure the functionality, security and convenience of online services and to analyze visitor flows.
Information on consent:We use cookies in accordance with the statutory provisions. We therefore obtain prior consent from users, unless this is not required by law. In particular, consent is not required if the storage and reading of information, including cookies, is absolutely necessary in order to provide users with a telemedia service they have expressly requested (i.e. our online offering). The revocable consent is clearly communicated to you and contains information on the respective use of cookies.
Information on the legal basis for data protection:
The legal basis under data protection law on which we process users' personal data using cookies depends on whether we ask for their consent. If users accept, the legal basis for processing their data is their declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed using cookies is processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. in the commercial operation of our online offering and the improvement of its usability) or, if this occurs in the context of the fulfillment of our contractual obligations, if the use of cookies is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations. We will explain the purposes for which we use cookies in the course of this privacy policy or as part of our consent and processing procedures.
Storage duration:With regard to the storage duration, a distinction is made between the following types of cookies
Temporary cookies (also: session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left an online offering and closed their end device (e.g. browser or mobile application).
Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after the end device is closed. For example, the log-in status can be saved and preferred content can be displayed directly when the user visits a website again. The user data collected with the help of cookies can also be used to measure reach. If we do not provide users with explicit information on the type and storage duration of cookies (e.g. when obtaining consent), they should assume that they are permanent and that the storage duration can be up to two years.
General information on revocation and objection (opt-out):Users can revoke the consent they have given at any time and also object to the processing in accordance with the legal requirements, also by means of the privacy settings of their browser.
Processed data types: Meta, communication and procedural data (e.g. IP addresses, time data, identification numbers, persons involved).
Data subjects: Users (e.g. website visitors, users of online services).
Legal bases: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR). Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR).
Further information on processing processes, procedures and services:
Processing of cookie data on the basis of consent: We use a consent management solution in which user consent is obtained for the use of cookies or for the procedures and providers mentioned in the consent management solution. This procedure is used to obtain, log, manage and revoke consent, in particular with regard to the use of cookies and similar technologies that are used to store, read and process information on users' end devices. As part of this procedure, user consent is obtained for the use of cookies and the associated processing of information, including the specific processing and providers mentioned in the consent management procedure. Users also have the option of managing and revoking their consent. The declarations of consent are stored in order to avoid repeated queries and to be able to provide proof of consent in accordance with legal requirements.

Further information on processing operations, procedures and services:
Measurement of opening and click rates: The newsletters contain a so-called “web beacon”, i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from our server or its server, if we use a dispatch service provider, when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as details of the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and the time of retrieval are initially collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of our newsletter based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined using the IP address) or the access times. This analysis also includes determining whether and when the newsletters are opened and which links are clicked on. The information is assigned to the individual newsletter recipients and stored in their profiles until it is deleted. The evaluations are used to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users. The measurement of the opening and click rates and the storage of the measurement results in the profiles of the users -

Web analysis, monitoring and optimization
Web analysis (also referred to as “reach measurement”) is used to evaluate the flow of visitors to our online offering and may include behavior, interests or demographic information about visitors, such as age or gender, as pseudonymous values. With the help of reach analysis, we can, for example, recognize at what time our online offer or its functions or content are most frequently used or invite visitors to reuse them. We are also able to understand which areas require optimization.
In addition to web analysis, we may also use test procedures, for example to test and optimize different versions of our online offering or its components.
Unless otherwise stated below, profiles, i.e. data summarized for a usage process, may be created for these purposes and information may be stored in a browser or end device and then read out. The information collected includes, in particular, websites visited and the elements used there as well as technical information such as the browser used, the computer system used and information on usage times. If users have consented to the collection of their location data from us or from the providers of the services we use, location data may also be processed.
In addition, the IP addresses of users are stored. However, we use an IP masking procedure (i.e. pseudonymization by shortening the IP address) to protect users. In general, no clear user data (such as e-mail addresses or names) is stored in the context of web analysis, A/B testing and optimization, but pseudonyms. This means that neither we nor the providers of the software used know the actual identity of the users, but only the information stored in their profiles for the purpose of the respective process.
Notes on legal bases: If we ask users for their consent to the use of third-party providers, the legal basis for data processing is consent. Otherwise, user data is processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in efficient, economical and recipient-friendly services). In this context, we would also like to draw your attention to the information on the use of cookies in this privacy policy.
Processed data types: Usage data (e.g. page views and dwell time, click paths, intensity and frequency of use, device types and operating systems used, interactions with content and functions).

Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to measure and analyze the use of our online offer on the basis of a pseudonymous user identification number. This identification number does not contain any unique data, such as names or e-mail addresses. It is used to assign analysis information to an end device in order to recognize which content the users have called up within one or more usage processes, which search terms they have used, which they have called up again or which they have interacted with our online offer. The time of use and its duration are also stored, as well as the sources of the users who refer to our online offering and technical aspects of their end devices and browsers.
Pseudonymous profiles of users are created with information from the use of various devices, whereby cookies may be used. Google Analytics does not log or store individual IP addresses for EU users. However, Analytics provides rough geographic location data by deriving the following metadata from IP addresses: City (and the city's inferred latitude and longitude), Continent, Country, Region, Subcontinent (and ID-based counterparts). For EU traffic, IP address data is used exclusively for this derivation of geolocation data before it is immediately deleted. They are not logged, are not accessible and are not used for other purposes. When Google Analytics collects measurement data, all IP queries are performed on EU-based servers before the traffic is forwarded to Analytics servers for processing; service provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR); Website:https://marketingplatform.google.com/intl/de/about/analytics/; Security measures: IP masking (pseudonymization of the IP address); Privacy Policy:https://policies.google.com/privacy; Data processing agreement: https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms/; Basis for third country transfers: Data Privacy Framework (DPF); Opt-Out: Opt-out plug-in: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de; Settings for the display of advertisements: https://myadcenter.google.com/personalizationoff.

Presence in social networks (social media)
We maintain online presences within social networks and process user data in this context in order to communicate with the users active there or to offer information about us.
We would like to point out that user data may be processed outside the European Union. This may result in risks for users because, for example, it could make it more difficult to enforce user rights.
Furthermore, user data within social networks is generally processed for market research and advertising purposes. For example, user profiles can be created based on user behavior and the resulting interests of users. The latter may in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within and outside the networks that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. Cookies are therefore generally stored on the user's computer, in which the user's usage behavior and interests are stored. In addition, data can also be stored in the user profiles independently of the devices used by the users (especially if they are members of the respective platforms and are logged in there).
For a detailed description of the respective forms of processing and the opt-out options, please refer to the data protection declarations and information provided by the operators of the respective networks.
In the case of requests for information and the assertion of data subject rights, we would also like to point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the providers. Only the latter have access to the user data and can take appropriate measures and provide information directly. Should you nevertheless require assistance, you can contact us.
Types of data processed: Contact data (e.g. postal and e-mail addresses or telephone numbers); content data (e.g. text or image messages and contributions as well as the information relating to them, such as information on authorship or time of creation).
