Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. To do so, a simple email to us will suffice. The legality of data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 DSGVO)

If data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) DSGVO, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation, including profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) DSGVO).

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing, including profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

When you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was/were unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you require them for the exercise, defense, or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
If you have objected pursuant to Art. 21(1) of the GDPR, a balancing of interests between your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.

Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Cookies that are necessary for the electronic communication process or for the provision of certain functions you wish to use (e.g., shopping cart function) are stored based on Art. 6(1)(f) DSVGO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the error-free and optimized provision of its services. If other cookies (e.g., cookies for analyzing your browsing behavior) are stored, they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.

Our pages use Google+ functions. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Collection and sharing of information: The Google+ button allows you to publish information worldwide.

The identity of your Google profile can be shown to users who know your email address or have other identifying information about you.

Google may publish aggregated statistics about users' +1 activities or share them with users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers, or affiliated websites.
