Data protection policy
We attach great importance to the protection of your personal data in the case of collecting, processing and using your personal data when you visit our homepage or place an order with us. Your data are protected as part of the statutory requirements, in particular the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the German Telemedia Act (TMG). The following information explains what data that are collected when you visit our homepage, and how such data are used:
Collecting and processing data
Any access to our homepage and any uploading of a file that is available on the homepage are, as a general rule, recorded. We use such data at most for internal statistics, market research or designing our telemedia in line with requirements by way of pseudonyms. Such data are saved for use in systems and internal statistics. In this respect the date and time at which data are uploaded, the web browser and requesting domain, in particular, are recorded.
Further-reaching personal data are only recorded if you provide such data voluntarily, e.g. as part of a request, news letter registration, opening a customer account or placing an order.
Using and forwarding personal data
Insofar as you provide us with your personal data, we shall only use it to reply to your inquiries, enter into and process the contract, maintain customer relations and for technical administration.
You may object at any time to the use of your personal information to maintain customer relations.
Your personal data shall only be forwarded to third parties or otherwise forwarded if this is required to enter into and process the contract.
Further-reaching use or the forwarding of your data shall only apply if you have expressly approved of such use in advance. Appropriate approval is not associated with the mere use of my services.
In other respects you are entitled at any time to revoke approval with effect for the future.
Your saved personal data shall be deleted if you revoke your approval to the saving of your data if your knowledge is no longer required to honour the purpose intended by way of saving data or if saving your data is or becomes inadmissible for other legal reasons.
Using cookies
We use cookies on various pages to make visiting our homepage more comfortable and to enable you to use certain functions. A "Cookie" is a small data file that we transfer to your computer if you surf our site. Most of the Cookies we use are so-called "session-related" Cookies. They do not remain on your computer. When you leave our site, the temporary Cookie is destroyed too. By way of the collected information we can analyse the use behaviour and structures of our homepage. We can therefore further optimise our website on an ongoing basis by improving the content or the personalisation, and simplify use. Other Cookies remain on your computer so that we can recognise them during your next visit. These are so-called permanent Cookies. These Cookies are aimed at welcoming you by your user name and enabling you to dispense with entering your password on your next visit or entering all the data again when placing an order. Most browsers accept Cookies as standard practise. In the security settings you can permit or prohibit temporary and permanent Cookies individually. If you deactivate Cookies, certain options in terms of using our homepage may not be available to you, and some pages may not be correctly displayed. The data stored in cookies are not linked to your personal data (name and address etc.).
Your additional rights
At your request we shall inform you of your stored personal data. Furthermore, you are entitled to correct, delete or block inaccurate data.
