Cookies
Some of our websites use so-called cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.
You can configure your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions requested by you (e.g., shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services.

The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, which allows the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore carried out exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time. An informal notification by email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up to the time of withdrawal remains unaffected.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions—especially retention periods—remain unaffected.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking
This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
As part of Google AdWords, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is set. Cookies are small text files stored by the internet browser on the user’s computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification of users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.
Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that allows users to be personally identified.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object by disabling the Google conversion tracking cookie in your browser under user settings. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.
“Conversion cookies” are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both its website and its advertising.
More information about Google AdWords and Google conversion tracking can be found in Google’s privacy policy:

Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Microsoft and we can thus recognize that someone clicked on an advertisement, was redirected to our website, and reached a previously defined target page (“conversion site”). We only learn the total number of users who clicked on a Bing ad and were then redirected to the conversion site.
Microsoft collects, processes, and uses information via the cookie to create usage profiles under pseudonyms. These usage profiles are used to analyze visitor behavior and to display advertisements. No personal information about the identity of the user is processed.
If you do not want Microsoft to use information about your behavior as described above, you can refuse the setting of the required cookie—for example, by changing your browser settings to generally disable the automatic setting of cookies.
