If you simply access our website, i.e. if you do not register or transmit any other information, we automatically store information of a general nature. This information (server log files) includes the type of web browser you use, the operating system you use, the domain name of your internet service provider, your IP address and similar information.

For this reason you cannot object to providing the data. 

 

Cookies

 

Nature and purpose of processing:

Like many other website operators we use “cookies” on our website. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website. They provide us with certain data such as your IP address, as well as the browser and operating system you use.

Use of Google Analytics

 

Nature and purpose of processing:

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ( “Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”; these are text files which are stored on your computer to analyse the way you use the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to one of Google’s servers in the USA and stored there. If you activate the IP anonymisation function Google will abbreviate your IP address within the member countries of the European Union or in other countries that are members of the European Economic Community. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator to evaluate the way you use the website, to collate reports on website activities and to provide the website operator other services related to website and internet use. The IP address sent by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data held by Google.

 

The data are processed for the purpose of evaluating use of the website and to enable the compilation of reports on website activities. Further connected services are then provided on the basis of website and internet use.

 

Lawfulness:

The data are processed on the basis of the website user’s consent (Art. 6(1) a) GDPR).

 

Recipients:

Google is the recipient of the data as processor. We have concluded a processing contract with Google in this respect.

Revoking consent:

You can prevent the storage of cookies by configuring your browser software accordingly; we would however like to point out that, in this case, you may probably not be able to fully use all functions of this website. You can also prevent the data (including your IP address) relating to your use of the website which are captured by the cookie being sent to or processed by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in from the following link: Browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics.

The Google Analytics tracking tool can be used to evaluate website user behaviour and analyse user interests. This is done with a pseudonymous user profile.

The legal basis for the integration of Google Maps into the website and the associated transfer of data to Google is your consent (Art. 6 (1) a GDPR).

 

Recipients:

When you visit our website Google receives information about which sub-pages of our website you access. This happens irrespectively of whether you are logged into a Google user account or not. If you are logged into a Google account, your data will automatically be linked to that account.

If you do not want the data to be assigned to your Google profile, you have to log out of your Google account before you click the button. Google saves your data as a user profile and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or user friendly design of its website. Such evaluations are performed, in particular (even when the user is not logged in) to provide user-oriented advertising and inform other social network users of your activities on our website. You have the right to object to profiling. To exercise it you have to contact Google.

 

Storage period:

We do not collect any personal data as a result of the integration of Google Maps.

 

Transfer to third countries:

Google processes your data in the USA and is Privacy Shield-certified https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

 

Revoking consent:
