II. General information on data processing
1. Scope of processing of personal data
In principle, we only process our user’s personal data to the extent that this is necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. Frequently, we only process our user’s personal data after they have provided consent. In these cases, an exception applies if it was not possible to obtain consent beforehand due to factual circumstances and processing of data is permitted by statutory provisions.
2. Legal basis for processing of personal data
To the extent that we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations, Article 6 para 1 lit a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the legal basis.
If processing personal data is necessary to perform a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6 para 1 lit b GDPR is the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations which are necessary to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
If it is necessary to process personal data to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6 para 1 lit c GDPR is the legal basis.
If vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make it necessary to process personal data, Article 6 para 1 lit d GDPR is the legal basis.
If processing is necessary to pursue a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, basic rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the first mentioned interest, Article 6 para 1 lit f GDPR is the legal basis for the processing.
3. Data erasure and term of storage
The data subject’s personal data will be erased or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer exists. Furthermore, data can be stored if this is stipulated by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the Controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or erased if a term of storage stipulated by the norms specified expires, unless there is a requirement to continue storing the data for the purpose of concluding or performing a contract.

Every time a user visits our website, our system automatically records data and information from the computer system of the visitor computer. The following data is collected:

These purposes also cover our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Article 6 para 1 lit f GDPR.

It also captures where visitors to the website come from and what content is accessed. It does not collect any personal data (eg IP addresses).

VIII. Google Maps
This website uses Google Maps API, a map service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”), to display an interactive map and create route maps. Google Maps is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
By using Google Maps, information about your use of this website (including your IP address and location data where applicable) may be transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google may also pass on the information collected through Maps to third parties if such is required by law or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. The provider of this website has no influence over this transfer of data.
By using this website, you consent to the collection, processing and use of the data that is automatically collected or that you disclose by Google, one of its representatives or third-party providers.
Google states that it will not link your IP address with any other data held by Google. Nevertheless, it would be technically possible for Google to at least identify individual users on the basis of the data they receive. It would be possible for Google to process personal data and create personality profiles for users of Google’s website for other purposes over which we do not and cannot have any influence. If you are logged into Google, Google can directly assign the visit to our website to your Google account. You can deactivate the Google Maps service and thus stop data being transferred to Google by deactivating JavaScript in your browser. However, we wish to point out that should you do so, you will be unable to use the maps on our website.
You can find Google’s privacy policy & additional terms of service for Google Maps at https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/help/terms_maps.html.

These plugins allow data, including personal data, to be sent to and potentially used by these US American service providers.

We also use the “two-click solution”. This means that when you visit our website, no personal data will be initially passed on to the plugin provider. You can identify the plugin providers by the tag in the box above the first letter of their name or the logo. We give you the option to communicate directly with the plugin provider using the button. The plugin provider will only be notified that you have accessed the corresponding page of our website if you click on the marked area, thereby activating it.
If you click on the button, the service provider will be notified that you have accessed the corresponding page of our website. This does not require you to have an account with the service provider or to be logged in to said account. If you are logged in to your account with the service provider, this data will be directly assigned to your account. If you click on one of the social plugins, and are linked to the website for example, the service provider also stores this information in your user account and shares this publicly with your contacts. If you do not wish for this data to be assigned to your profile with the service provider, you must log out before clicking on one of the social plugins.
We do not have any influence over the data that is collected or data processing operations, nor are we aware of the full extent of this data collection, the purposes for which it is processed or the duration of storage. We also do not have any information regarding erasure of the collected data by the plugin provider.
