Websites sometimes use cookies. These cause no harm to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies make our offering more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files placed on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are session cookies. These are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain saved on your end-device until you delete them. These allow us to recognise your browser when you next visit.
You can set up your browser to inform you when cookies are downloaded, to only allow cookies on a case-by-case basis, to block cookies in some instances or in general and to automatically delete cookies when you close your browser. Deactivating cookies may restrict the functionality of this website.
Cookies needed for providing electronic communications or certain functions that you request (e.g. the shopping basket function) are saved in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in saving cookies to provide its services in an optimal way free from technical errors. Where other cookies are saved (e.g. to analyse your surfing behaviour), these are covered separately in this data protection statement.

The website provider automatically collects and saves information in server log files, which are sent to us automatically by your browser. The files contain the following information:

These data are not merged with other data sources.
This processing is carried out under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or take steps prior to entering into a contract.

The data in the contact form are therefore processed solely on the basis of your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time. To do this, simply send us an email. Withdrawal does not affect the legality of data processing carried out before withdrawal.
The data entered in the contact form remain with us until you ask us to delete them or withdraw your consent for them to be saved or the purpose for which they were saved no longer applies (e.g. your enquiry has been dealt with). This is without prejudice to mandatory legal provisions, especially retention periods.

5. ANALYSIS TOOLS AND ADVERTISING
Google Analytics
This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files that are stored on your computer that allow an analysis of your use of the website to be performed. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
Google Analytics cookies are stored pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour to enable it to optimise both its website and its advertising.
IP anonymisation
We have activated the IP anonymisation function on this website. This means that your IP address is truncated by Google in Member States of the European Union and other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional instances will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
Google Signals
We use Google Signals. These capture additional information in Google Analytics about users who have turned on Ads Personalization (interests and demographic data), allowing ads to be delivered to these users in cross-device remarketing campaigns.
Anonymisation of IP addresses is activated by default in Google Analytics 4. IP anonymisation means your IP address is truncated by Google in Member States of the European Union and other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional instances will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. According to Google, IP addresses transmitted from your browser as part of Google Analytics are not merged with other Google data.

6. PLUGINS AND TOOLS
Vimeo
Our website uses plugins from the video portal Vimeo. The provider is Vimeo Inc, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.
A connection to the Vimeo servers is established when you visit any of our pages that has a Vimeo plugin. The plugin tells the Vimeo server which of our pages you have visited. It also passes your IP address on to Vimeo. This is the case even if you are not logged in to Vimeo or do not have an account with Vimeo. The information collected by Vimeo is transmitted to the Vimeo server in the USA.
If you are logged into your Vimeo account, you enable Vimeo to assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account.
For more information on the handling of user data, please refer to the Vimeo privacy policy at: https://vimeo.com/privacy.
