Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to yourself or to third parties. The provision will be in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.

Right to Information, Correction, Blocking, Deletion

You have the right, within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, to free information about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, their recipients, and the purpose of the data processing at any time. Additionally, you may have the right to correct, block, or delete this data. For these concerns and any further questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time using the contact information provided in the legal notice.

SSL/TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content you send to us as the website operator, our website uses SSL/TLS encryption. This ensures that data you transmit through this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the "https://" in the address bar of your browser and the padlock symbol in the browser bar.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies, which are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help us make our offering more user-friendly, effective, and secure.

Some cookies are "session cookies." These are automatically deleted after the end of your browser session. However, other cookies remain on your device until you delete them yourself. Such cookies help us recognize you when you return to our website.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict, or prevent the setting of cookies. Many web browsers can be configured to automatically delete cookies when the program is closed. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

The setting of cookies necessary for electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions you desire (e.g., shopping cart) is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. If other cookies are set (e.g., for analytical functions), they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.

WIX

Our website was built on the technical infrastructure provided by Wix.com. Wix and its partners offer various services within this framework to make our website faster and more secure.

Google Analytics

Our website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analysis service is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses "cookies." These are small text files that your web browser stores on your end device and enable an analysis of website usage. Information generated by the cookie about your use of our website is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored there. The server location is typically in the USA.

The setting of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize our web offering and potentially also advertising.

IP Anonymization

We use Google Analytics in conjunction with IP anonymization. It ensures that Google shortens your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmitting it to the USA. There may be exceptional cases where Google transfers the full IP address to a server in the USA and truncates it there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide us with further services associated with website use and internet use. There is no merging of the IP address transmitted by Google Analytics with other data from Google.

Browser Plugin

You can prevent the storage of cookies by your web browser. However, some functions of our website may be restricted as a result. Similarly, you can prevent the collection of data regarding your website usage, including your IP address, and its subsequent processing by Google. This is possible by downloading and installing the browser plugin accessible via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

Details on handling user data with Google Analytics can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

Data Processing

To fully comply with legal data protection requirements, we have entered into a contract with Google for data processing.

Demographic Features in Google Analytics

Our website uses the "demographic features" function of Google Analytics. It enables the creation of reports that contain information about the age, gender, and interests of page visitors. This data is derived from Google's interest-based advertising and visitor data from third-party providers. The data cannot be attributed to any specific individual. You can deactivate this feature at any time. This can be done through the ad settings in your Google account or by generally prohibiting the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as explained in the "Objection to Data Collection" section.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking

Our website uses Google AdWords, provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States.

AdWords is an online advertising program. As part of this program, we utilize conversion tracking. When you click on an ad provided by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. Cookies are small text files stored by your web browser on your device. Google AdWords cookies expire after 30 days and do not serve to personally identify users. Through the cookie, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on an ad and were redirected to our website.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. These cookies are not traceable across AdWords customers' websites. Conversion cookies generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers using conversion tracking. AdWords customers can see how many users clicked on their ad and were redirected to pages with a conversion tracking tag. However, AdWords customers do not receive information that allows personal identification of users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to its use. You can disable the conversion cookie in your browser's user settings. This prevents inclusion in conversion tracking statistics.

The storage of "conversion cookies" is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. As website operators, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize our website and advertising.

For further details on Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking, please refer to Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict, or block the setting of cookies. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.
