We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your end device by the Internet browser you use. These cookies process certain information from you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, to an individual extent.
This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as the processing enables, for example, the reproduction of our website in different languages or the offer of a shopping cart function.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b.) GDPR, insofar as these cookies are processed for contract initiation or contract processing.
If the processing does not serve to initiate or execute a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
These session cookies are deleted when you close your Internet browser.
Our website may also use cookies from partner companies with whom we cooperate for the purposes of advertising, analysis or the functionalities of our website.
Please refer to the following information for details, in particular the purposes and legal basis for processing such third-party cookies.
You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by changing the settings of your Internet browser. You can also delete cookies that have already been saved at any time.

The steps and measures required for this also depend on the specific Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please also use the help function or documentation of your Flash player or contact the manufacturer or user support.
However, if you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may mean that not all functions of our website can be used to their full extent.
If you contact us via contact form or e-mail, the data you provide will be used to process your request. The provision of the data is necessary for processing and answering your inquiry - without it we cannot answer your inquiry or can only answer it to a limited extent.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.

The legal basis for this processing is also Section 26 (1) sentence 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 para. 1 GDPR.
If an application is rejected, we automatically delete the data transmitted to us two months after notification of the rejection. However, the data will not be deleted if the data requires longer storage of up to four months or until the conclusion of legal proceedings due to legal provisions, e.g. due to the burden of proof under the AGG.
The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR and Section 24 para. 1 no. 2 BDSG. Our legitimate interest lies in legal defense and enforcement.
If you expressly consent to a longer storage of your data, e.g. for your inclusion in a database of applicants or interested parties, the data will be processed further on the basis of your consent.

Google also records "demographic characteristics" and can compile statistics that enable statements to be made about the age, gender and interests of site visitors. This is done through the automated analysis of advertising and information from third-party providers.
If the user has activated personalized ads in their Google account and agrees to Google Analytics, Google can analyze usage behavior across devices - i.e. across all devices that the user has linked to their Google account. Google creates models for cross-device conversions; only anonymous statistics are transmitted to us for this purpose, not personal data.
If the user wishes to deactivate this cross-device analysis, he can deactivate the "Personalized advertising" function in the settings of his Google account under the following link:
https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=de
We use Google Analytics with an anonymization function. This means that the IP address of the user is shortened by Google within the EU member states or in other contracting states of the EEA agreement.
Google uses the data collected to evaluate the user's visit to the website and to compile reports on website activity for us. The data is also used to provide further services in connection with website and Internet use. Google may pass this information on to third parties if required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.
According to its own information, Google will never link the user's IP address with other Google data. Google provides further information and options for preventing the use of data here:
