The following declaration gives you an overview of how we guarantee this protection and what kind of data we collect for what purpose.
1. Scope of the processing of personal data
We only collect and use our users’ personal data of insofar as this is necessary to provide a functional website as well as our contents and services. The collection and use of our users’ personal data takes place regularly and only with the user's consent. An exception applies in those cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for real reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

In particular, personal data will only be passed on to third parties if you have given your express prior consent or if we are obliged to surrender the data, for example due to an official order.
2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU Data Protection Ordinance (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.

This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.

In the event of the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person requiring the processing of personal data, article 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis. If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
3. Data erasure and storage time

Such information may be obtained by advertisers on whose websites or apps we have booked advertisements.
User-related online advertising is carried out with legitimate interest, among other things for the distribution of online content that is to be made available to a larger target group.
You can object to the use-related online advertising described under III. 1 e) for our website.
We work with the following advertising networks:

3. Remarketing
The websites use the Google Inc. "("Google") remarketing or "similar target group" function. This feature allows visitors to the sites to be targeted with advertisements by personalized, interest-based ads being delivered to visitors to the sites when they visit other sites on the Google Display Network. Google uses cookies to analyze website usage, which forms the basis for creating interest-based advertisements. Google stores a small file with a sequence of numbers in the browsers of visitors to the website. This number is used to record visits to the website and anonymised data on the use of the website. No personal data of visitors to the website are stored. If you subsequently visit another website in the Google Display Network, you will see ads that are highly likely to include previously accessed product and information areas.
You can disable the use of cookies by third parties by visiting the deactivation page of the Network Advertising Initiative at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and implementing the additional opt-out information mentioned therein.
For more information about Google Remarketing and Google's privacy policy, please visit: http://www.google.com/privacy/ads/
On some of our websites we use the remarketing function "Custom Audiences" of Facebook Inc. (1601 p. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA; "Facebook").
This function serves the purpose of targeting the visitors of the website with interest-related advertising on Facebook.
For this purpose, the Facebook remarketing tag was implemented on the website. This tag establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers while visiting the website transferring to the Facebook server which of our pages you have visited. Facebook maps this information to your personal Facebook account. When you visit the Facebook social network, you will see personalized, interest-based Facebook ads.
To object to the processing of your personal data, you can deactivate the remarketing function "Custom Audiences" at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen. For more information about Facebook's collection and use of the data, your rights and ways to protect your privacy, please see Facebook's privacy policy at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

The other personal data processed during the sending process via the contact form serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our IT systems.
4. Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. For the personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those that were sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user is finished. The conversation is terminated when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter has been clarified once and for all.
If statutory provisions provide for retention obligations (e.g. six years for commercial letters received, section 257 (4) of the German Commercial Code(HGB)), deletion shall take place after expiry of the corresponding period.
V. Data provided by you
1. Description and scope of data processing
In some areas of the site, you may be asked to provide personal information in order to use the offers or free features described or to participate in special promotions (subscription orders, product orders, editorial or advertising newsletters, participation in competitions or other promotions). You will be informed about which information you must provide for these offers and which data you can voluntarily provide.
In particular, the following data may be collected: Name, address, bank details, password, date of birth, e-mail address, declarations of consent, information on the concluded legal transaction.
To fulfill your order or registration we pass your data on to partners, who in turn act in conformity with the data protection regulations.

When subscribing to a newsletter, the user receives a confirmation message after registration, which contains a link to the final registration (double opt-in). This ensures that the newsletter is explicitly desired.
You can unsubscribe from the newsletter via a personalized link that will be sent with each mailing.
2. Legal basis for data processing
If the purpose of data collection is to conclude a contract, the legal basis for processing is art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Furthermore, data will be processed on the basis of a consent given by you (art 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).
3. Purpose of data processing

The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. This is usually the case if the service you have used (e.g. newsletter order, creation of a personal user profile) is cancelled.
If statutory provisions provide for retention obligations (e.g. six years for commercial letters received, section 257 (4) HGB), deletion shall take place after expiry of the corresponding period.
VI. Use of the app
1. Downloading the app
When downloading the app, the required information is transferred to the respective app store (Google Play / Apple App Store, / Amazon App Store, USA), i.e. in particular user name, email address and customer number of your account, time of download, payment information if applicable and an individual device identifier. We have no influence on this data collection and processing and are not responsible for it. Details on the use of data by the app store operators can be found in their data protection declarations.
2. Data processing for the provision of the service
Your IP address, device identifiers (e.g. UDID, DeviceID), device name, installed app version and operating system version of your terminal device are processed by us for the installation, enabling and provision of the service (e.g. for troubleshooting) (Art.6 para.1 b, f DSGVO). Providing you with the best possible service is our legitimate interest, insofar as we process your data on this legal basis. The data will be deleted in our access area by us for this purpose when it is no longer required for enabling and providing the service, unless there are legal storage obligations.
3. Sending push messages in apps
Push messages are information that is sent to your end device and displayed there in a prioritised manner. Without your consent, which can be revoked at any time, the app only sends push messages to notify you of a change to these data protection provisions or contractual information about the app (Art. 6 para.1 a, b DSGVO). In order to send you push messages, we process your device identifier (device ID). You can revoke your consent in the system settings of your smartphone or mobile device. You can therefore unsubscribe from push messages there.
4. Advertising ID
The system providers of your device operating systems (e.g. Apple, Google) generate a so-called advertising ID for your end device by default. As the provider of the app, we initially have no influence on this. The advertising ID is used in part to collect information about user behaviour and may be made available to third-party providers or used by them, for example, to optimise advertisements for you and to make them available in line with your predicted interests, also by the system providers. You can reset your advertising ID via the settings of your terminal device or prevent its use.

9. Automated decision in individual cases including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing - including profiling - that has legal effect against you or significantly impairs you in a similar manner. This does not apply if the decision
(1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the person responsible,
(2) the legislation of the Union or of the Member States to which the person responsible is subject is admissible and that legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests; or
(3) with your express consent.
However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless art. 9 para. 2 lit. a or g applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.
In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the person responsible shall take reasonable measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person by the person responsible, to state his own position and to challenge the decision.
10. Right of appeal to a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right of appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where you reside, work or which you suspect of infringement, if you believe that the processing of personal data relating to you is contrary to the GDPR.
The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under article 78 GDPR.
