When you simply visit our websites without actively providing further information, so-called server log files are automatically recorded, such as your IP address, the web browser and operating system you use, the domain names of your internet service provider, and other details.
This ensures a smooth connection setup, usability, and the stability and security of the websites. It is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, which allows us to process personal data when necessary for our legitimate interests in improving the stability and functionality of our websites.
Technical service providers responsible for the operation and maintenance of our websites may be recipients of this data, acting as processors on our behalf following Article 28 of the GDPR.
The data is generally deleted at the end of each session, as it is typically no longer necessary for the purposes mentioned above.
Our websites are hosted by the external service provider Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Deutschland (provider). The personal data collected while using our websites is stored on the provider’s servers. This may include, in particular, IP addresses, contact inquiries, meta and communication data, contract data, contact details, names, website access, and other data generated through the website. The use of the provider is to fulfill the contract with our potential and existing customers (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and in the interest of ensuring a secure, fast, and efficient provision of our online services by a professional provider (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Our provider will process your data only to the extent necessary to fulfill its contractual obligations and will follow our instructions regarding this data. We have entered into a data processing agreement with our provider to ensure the processing complies with data protection regulations.
We use the CookieYes GDPR Cookie Consent plugin, which processes the date and time of the visit, browser information, consent information, device information, and the IP address of the requesting device. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR (legitimate interest). The collection and management of legally required consents are considered a legitimate interest within the meaning of the provision mentioned above. We store consents and revocations for a duration of one week.
As part of certain processing of personal data that takes place when using our website, data may be transferred to the USA or to servers of US companies. When this is the case or at least cannot be ruled out, we will always inform you in the following statements. In each case, we base the transfer on the EU Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF), provided that the data importers are certified in accordance with this, and alternatively on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses.
On our websites, you will find forms for individual communication (e. g., for contacting us or requesting a callback). If you use these forms, the data entered in the input fields will be transmitted to us and stored. This data typically includes names, addresses, email addresses, telephone numbers, and possibly additional information provided by you.
The legal basis for processing data transmitted to us via contact forms is generally Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, as the purpose pursued and our legitimate interest lies in facilitating easy contact and processing your inquiry.
If the approach aims to enter into a contract, the legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR (pre-contractual measure).
The recipients of your data may include service providers that are privacy-compliant and integrated by us. On the one hand, these service providers maintain our websites; on the other hand, they may receive your data if necessary to fulfill their respective services.
The data will be deleted no later than six months after the matter related to the inquiry has been finally clarified. If a contractual relationship is established, the statutory retention periods apply, according to which your data will be deleted after six or ten years.
If you contact us via email or telephone, your inquiry, including any resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us to handle your request. We do not disclose this data without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
The data you send us will remain with us until you request its deletion or the purpose for data storage ceases to exist (e. g., after the completion of your request). Mandatory legal provisions, especially statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.
When you sign up for our email newsletter, we regularly send you information about our offers. The mandatory information for sending the newsletter is only your email address. Providing additional data is voluntary and is used to address you personally.
We use HubSpot (2nd Floor 30 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland) to send newsletters; we have concluded a data processing agreement with this service provider. This enables us to organize the sending of newsletters and analyze newsletter campaigns. During the analysis, we can see, for example, whether a newsletter message has been opened and which links, if any, have been clicked on. We can also see whether certain predefined actions were carried out after opening/clicking (conversion rate). For example, we can see whether you have made a purchase or similar after clicking on the newsletter.
The service provider also allows us to segment the newsletter recipients into categories (“clusters”). For example, newsletter recipients can be divided based on age, gender, or location. This allows us to better tailor the newsletters to the respective target groups.
The data processing is based on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). You can revoke this consent anytime by unsubscribing from the newsletter directly on the website or using the link provided in each newsletter message.
The legality of the data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.
The data you provide to receive the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the distribution list after unsubscribing. Data stored for other purposes remains unaffected.
After unsubscribing from the distribution list, your email address will be stored in a blacklist to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist is only used for this purpose and is not merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements for newsletter dispatch (legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR). The storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interests.
If you have provided us with your e-mail address when purchasing goods or services, we reserve the right (provided you have not initially objected to this) to regularly send you offers for similar goods or services, such as those already purchased, from our range by e-mail, in particular in the form of a newsletter. In accordance with Section 7 (3) UWG, we do not need to obtain separate consent from you for this. Data processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in personalized direct advertising in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. However, you can object to the corresponding use of your e-mail address at any time with effect for the future by sending us a brief message. Upon receipt of your objection, the use of your e-mail address for advertising purposes will cease immediately.
To participate in our webinars and other events, you need to register. For this purpose, we require your data: first and last name, email address.
We need this data to send you the access data and to identify you. We process this data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR to fulfill our contractual obligation. We will also use your e-mail address to subsequently send you documents relating to the webinar you attended.
When registering for the webinar, you have the option of consenting to the processing of your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR to consent to the sending of advertising. We will then use your e-mail address and your first and last name to send you advertising.
We use Microsoft Teams for webinars. Further information on the provider’s data protection can be found here:
https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/privacy/data-privacy-notice?msockid=1a51f621fb47693a3446e2a6facc68ee
If personal data is transferred to the USA or to servers of US companies in this context, we base this on the EU Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses as the legal basis.
If you have consented to being contacted for advertising purposes, we will store your e-mail address and your first and last name until you withdraw your consent.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the website operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by changing the browser’s address bar from “http://” to “https://” and the presence of a lock symbol in your browser’s address bar. When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, third parties cannot read the data you transmit to us. However, we would like to point out that Internet data transmission (especially via email) may have security vulnerabilities.
We use cookies when you visit our websites. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Cookies cannot execute programs or transmit viruses to your device.
Certain, so-called transient cookies are automatically deleted when you log out or close the browser. Other, so-called persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie.
Certain cookies are necessary tomake the websites more user-friendly, effective and simple. For example, some website functions require that your browser can be identified even after a page change. It is also necessary to save the settings you have selected with regard to the use of technically unnecessary cookies.
The use of cookies in this respect is based on § 25 para. 2 no. 2 TDDDG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in a user-friendly design of our website.
If necessary, such data may be disclosed to technical service providers who act as processors following Art. 28 of the GDPR for the operation and maintenance of our websites.
The storage duration is usually no longer than one year, counted from the last visit to the respective website.
Cookies also serve to better tailor our offer to your interests or to generally improve it on the basis of statistical evaluations. The legal basis for this processing is your consent, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
We use Google Tag Manager, provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
The Google Tag Manager is a tool that allows us to integrate tracking or statistical tools and other technologies into our website. The Google Tag Manager does not create user profiles, store cookies, or perform independent analyses. It is only used for managing and deploying the tools integrated through it. However, the Google Tag Manager collects your IP address, which can be transmitted to Google’s parent company in the United States. The legal basis for this is the EU Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) and the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses.
The use of Google Tag Manager is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG; the consent can be revoked at any time.
This website uses the web analytics service Google Analytics features, provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Analytics allows us to analyze the behavior of website visitors. We receive various usage data, such as page views, duration of visit, operating systems used, and the user’s origin. This data is aggregated into a user ID and associated with the respective user’s device.
Furthermore, we can record mouse movements, scroll actions, and clicks with Google Analytics. Google Analytics also uses various modeling approaches to supplement the collected data and employs machine learning technologies for data analysis.
Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of users to analyze user behavior (e. g., cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of this website is usually transmitted to and stored on a server in the United States.
The use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG; the consent can be revoked at any time.
If personal data is transferred to the USA or to servers of US companies in this context, we base this on the EU Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses as the legal basis.
You can prevent the collection and processing of your data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
You can find more information on how Google Analytics handles user data in Google’s privacy policy:https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.
We have entered into a data processing agreement with Google.
The website operator uses Google Ads, an online advertising program provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Ads enables us to display advertisements in the Google search engine or on third-party websites when users enter specific search terms on Google (keyword targeting). Furthermore, targeted advertisements can be displayed based on user data available at Google (e. g., location data and interests) (audience targeting). As a website operator, we can quantitatively analyze this data by, for example, analyzing which search terms led to the display of our advertisements and how many clicks were generated.
The use of Google Ads is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG; the consent can be revoked at any time.
If personal data is transferred to the USA or to servers of US companies in this context, we base this on the EU Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses as the legal basis.
Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.
This website uses the features of Google Analytics Remarketing, provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Remarketing analyzes user behavior on our website (e. g., clicks on specific products) to categorize you into specific advertising target groups. Subsequently, when you visit other online offerings, Google Remarketing can display tailored advertising messages to you (remarketing or retargeting).
Furthermore, the advertising target groups created with Google Remarketing can be linked to Google’s cross-device capabilities. This allows interest-based, personalized advertising messages adapted to your previous usage and browsing behavior on one device (e. g., mobile phone) to be displayed on another of your devices (e. g., tablet or PC).
If you have a Google account, you can object to personalized advertising at the following link:https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.
The use of Google Remarketing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG; the consent can be revoked at any time.
If personal data is transferred to the USA or to servers of US companies in this context, we base this on the EU Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses as the legal basis.
Further information and the data protection provisions can be found in Google’s privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=de.
This website uses Google Conversion Tracking, provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
With the help of Google Conversion Tracking, Google and we can determine whether users have performed certain actions. For example, we can evaluate which buttons on our website are clicked most frequently and which products are viewed or purchased most frequently. This information is used to create conversion statistics. We learn the total number of users who clicked on our ads and which actions they took. We do not receive any information that personally identifies users. Google uses cookies or similar recognition technologies for identification purposes.
The use of Google Conversion Tracking is based on your consent following Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR; the consent can be revoked at any time.
If personal data is transferred to the USA or to servers of US companies in this context, we base this on the EU Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses as the legal basis.
You can find more information about Google Conversion Trackingin Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.
On our website, we use Google reCAPTCHA, provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
The purpose of this is to verify whether data input, such as in a contact form, is being done by a human or an automated program. To achieve this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically when the website visitor enters the website. reCAPTCHA evaluates various pieces of information for analysis (such as IP address, duration of the website visit, or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during this analysis is transmitted to Google.
Data processing is based on our legitimate interest in protecting our website from abusive automated spying and spam (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
For further information about Google reCAPTCHA and Google’s privacy policy, please refer to the following links: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.
If personal data is transferred to the USA or to servers of US companies in this context, we base this on the EU Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses as the legal basis.
Our websites use web fonts provided by Google to ensure consistent font presentation. When a page is loaded, your browser downloads the necessary web fonts to its browser cache to display text and fonts correctly. To prevent the transmission of personal data to Google servers in the United States, we have locally integrated Google Fonts.
Elements of social media are used on this website. You can usually recognize these by their respective logos. We ensure that the integrated social media elements do not transfer your personal data to the respective provider the first time you access the page. This may only happen if you have consented to this. You can give your consent via the settings of the cookie banner or by clicking on the button associated with the social media element, whereby the respective provider can receive the information that you have visited our website with your IP address. If you are logged into your respective social media account at the same time, the respective provider can assign the visit to this website to your user account.
You can revoke your consent at any time – by changing your cookie settings – with effect for the future.

Eine Übermittlung Ihrer persönlichen Daten an Dritte zu anderen als den vorstehend genannten Zwecken findet nicht statt. Wir geben – zusammenfassend – Ihre persönlichen Daten nur an Dritte weiter, wenn Sie hierzu nach Art. 6 Abs. 1 S. 1 lit. a DSGVO Ihre Einwilligung erteilt haben, dies nach Art. 6 Abs. 1 S. 1 lit. b DSGVO für die Abwicklung von Vertragsverhältnissen mit Ihnen erforderlich ist, dies zur Wahrung unserer berechtigten Interessen nach Art. 6 Abs. 1 S. 1 lit. f DSGVO (e.g. for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or in the context of advertising measures) and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data or if a legal obligation pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. c DSGVO zur Weitergabe besteht.
With regard to the personal data concerning you, you have the following rights vis-à-vis us, which you can generally claim in any form (e.g. at our postal address – preferably with the subject “Data subject rights”).
Every data subject has the right to information according to Art. 15 of the GDPR, the right to correction according to Art. 16 of the GDPR, the right to deletion according to Art. 17 of the GDPR, the right to restriction of processing according to Art. 18 of the GDPR, and the right to data portability according to Art. 20 of the GDPR.

Our legitimate interests usually consist of responding to inquiries, conducting direct marketing activities, providing services and/or information intended for you, processing and transmitting personal data for internal or administrative purposes, operating and managing our websites, providing technical support, preventing and detecting fraud and criminal offenses, and ensuring network and data security.
When exercising an objection, please explain the interests you believe outweigh ours. In the event of a justified objection, we will either cease or adjust the data processing or provide compelling legitimate grounds for continuing the processing.
If you object to processing our (interest-based) direct advertising, no further explanation of reasons is required from you; further processing will cease without delay.
You can revoke your consent to processing personal data at any time. This also applies to the revocation of consent declarations given to us before the General Data Protection Regulation came into effect, i.e., before May 25, 2018. Please note that the revocation only takes effect in the future. Processing that occurred before the revocation is not affected by this.
Finally, you have the right to complain with a data protection supervisory authority regarding the processing of your data by us. The responsible supervisory authority for us is the Independent Data Protection Center Saarland, Fritz-Dobisch-Straße 12, 66111 Saarbrücken.
Following Article 32 of the GDPR, we implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, taking into account the state of the art, implementation costs, the nature, scope, context, and purposes of processing, as well as the likelihood and severity of the risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.
These measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data by controlling physical access to the data and the access, input, disclosure, availability, and separation of the data. Furthermore, we have established procedures to ensure the exercise of data subject rights, deletion of data, and response to data breaches. We also consider protecting personal data in developing or selecting hardware, software, and procedures following the principle of data protection by design and by default (Article 25 of the GDPR).
We would like to caution that data transmission over the Internet, especially when communicating via email, may have security vulnerabilities.
To present our company and communicate directly with you, we use social media platforms from providers such as LinkedIn, Instagram and others (hereinafter referred to as providers), through which we maintain our presence (e.g. in the context of company and employee profiles) and process your data.

You can visit our website without providing any personal information. Suppose you only use our website for informational purposes and do not register or provide us with information about yourself. In that case, we do not process any personal data except for the data collected by the operator through cookies and transmitted to us.
To analyze and track the use of their social media platform and our website, the provider uses cookies that evaluate your browsing behavior. This enables us to improve the quality of the platform, website, and content. We gain insights into how the platform and website are used, allowing us to continuously optimize our offer.
However, we have no control over the data collected and the data processing operations, nor do we have information about the full extent of data collection, the specific purposes of the processing, or the retention periods. We also have no information about deleting data collected by the platform operator.
Web analytics involves collecting, gathering, and evaluation of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analytics service captures, among other things, data about the referring website from which an individual accessed a website (referrer), which subpages were accessed, and how often and for what duration a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is regularly used to optimize a website and analyze the cost-effectiveness of internet advertising. The information obtained through the analysis and tracking of our website may be combined with other data collected while using the website and platform. If you register on the platform, the operator may link data regarding your platform activities with your personal information (including name/email address) based on your consent, thereby capturing personal data and informing you individually and specifically about your preferred topics, among other things.
We have limited control over the statistics provided by the platform operator and cannot disable them. However, we ensure that no additional optional statistics are provided to us.
We process your data based on your consent, according to Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR you provided to the provider when registering for the respective social media platform.
In addition to using our website for informational purposes, you can also actively engage with us by contacting us. In addition to processing your personal data, as described above for purely informational use, we also process additional personal data from you when you actively use our website, for example, when we need it to process your inquiries. This also applies if we use the website ourselves, such as for proactive communication or initiating business contacts with you.
You can comment on, share, or otherwise interact (like, recommend, review, etc.) with posts, photos, videos, etc., created by us on the provider’s platform and our website. If it is a function of the platform operated by the provider, we may share your content on our website and communicate with you through the platform. The operator may publish public messages, but we will never use or process them for other purposes.
Regarding reviews, we reserve the right to publish a statement (e. g., to clarify an issue, offer complaisance actions, etc.) in response to your feedback and to request further contact. This may involve processing personal data voluntarily published by you in the review. Furthermore, we reserve the right to delete content if necessary.
We process your data to safeguard our legitimate interests, according to Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The data processing is carried out in our public relations and communication interest.
To process your inquiries, for example, through contact forms, chat, or our email address, and to provide targeted responses and the requested information, we process the personal data you provide in this context. This includes your contact details to send you a response or ask necessary follow-up questions and any other information you transmit to us in this regard.
If you submit an inquiry to us through the platform, depending on the required response, we may refer you to other secure communication channels that guarantee confidentiality. You always have the option to send confidential inquiries to the address stated in the imprint or this privacy policy. Our contact may be made electronically, by telephone, or by postal mail, depending on the subject of the inquiry and appropriateness.
We process your personal data to respond to user inquiries, requests for materials, etc. on the following legal bases: to protect our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR; our legitimate interest lies in the appropriate response to and execution of customer inquiries; if the inquiry is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR; with your consent in the context of using the live chat, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
We actively utilize our presence on business-oriented platforms such as LinkedIn and associated tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator to engage, communicate, establish business contacts, and receive your job applications.
For this purpose, we process the data provided to us by the respective platform. This may include your name, employer, position at your company, education, and other contacts on the platform. Depending on the nature of our interaction with you, we may process additional data, such as specific business relationships or the content of our communication. Furthermore, there is a possibility that we will transfer your data to our CRM system and combine or link it with existing data about you in that system.
We process your data to engage, communicate, or establishing business contacts with you (including through our CRM) based on the following legal grounds:
your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, which you provided to the provider when registering for the respective social media platform, insofar as it concerns your platform user data (name, employer, position, usage behavior on the platform, etc.);
