Privacy policy

General information

These data protection provisions are based on the legal regulations of the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), which will come into force on 25 May 2018.

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

In principle, it is possible to use our website without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (e.g. surname, first name, telephone number, address or e-mail addresses) is collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.

We would like to point out that despite all the measures we have taken, data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps and therefore complete protection of data against access by third parties is not guaranteed in every case.

 

Cookies

This website uses cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. The creation of a cookie is a way of temporarily storing data and serves 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.

The cookies we use most frequently are so-called ‘session cookies’, which have a limited lifespan. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise you as a visitor on your next visit and thus offer you a better visitor experience.

You can set your browser so that you are informed when cookies are set. You can also specifically allow cookies only in individual cases or generally exclude them. You can also set your browser to automatically delete cookies when you close the browser window. If you deactivate cookies, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

 

Server log files

The hosting provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits.

These are in particular:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server enquiry

This data cannot be assigned to specific persons. This data is not merged with other data sources. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use.

The primary purpose of this data collection is to analyse and prevent attempted attacks on the website. Hosting providers are also legally obliged in certain situations to be able to provide information on where access was made from in order to counter criminal activities.

 

Contact form

If you fill out a form, e.g. the contact form on our website, all your details will be sent to us by e-mail and also stored in the database for security against loss and better traceability. We do not pass this data on to third parties without your consent.

 

Newsletter data

We offer our customers a newsletter. If you would like to receive this, we require a valid e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and your consent for us to send you the newsletter.

We use our address management system to personalise the newsletter. You will be listed in the address management with your complete address data, provided you give us this information. In the newsletter, we use your first name and surname as well as the salutation for personalised addressing. We would like to offer you added value and address you personally. If you do not want this, you can inform us at any time and we will remove this data.

We use the newsletter data exclusively for sending the requested information and for correspondence with our customers in connection with invoices, contracts and project-specific work.

We assure you that we will treat your data confidentially and never pass it on to third parties.

You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address and its use in our address management and for sending the newsletter at any time by informing us by e-mail, telephone or via the ‘unsubscribe’ link in the newsletter.

 

SSL encryption

To protect the transmission of confidential data via our forms and for security reasons, we use SSL encryption technology. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the address line ‘https://’ and the lock symbol displayed in the browser.

Data that is encrypted using SSL cannot be read by third parties during transmission.

 

Google Analytics

We integrate the web analysis service ‘Google Analytics’ from the provider Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses so-called ‘cookies’, text files which are stored on the user's computer and which enable the use of the website to be analysed. The information generated by the cookie about the use of this website by users is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, the IP address of Google users within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area will be shortened beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. IP anonymisation is active on this website. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyse the use of the website by users, to compile reports on website activity and to 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. Users may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on their browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. Users can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to their use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

Third-party providers, including Google, place adverts on websites on the Internet. Third-party providers, including Google, use stored cookies to place adverts based on a user's previous visits to this website.

Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You can object to the collection and storage of data at any time with effect for the future. You can deactivate the use of cookies by Google by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software.

You can find further information on the use of data for advertising purposes by Google, setting and objection options on the Google websites: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners (‘Data use by Google when you use websites or apps of our partners’), http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads (‘Data use for advertising purposes’), http://www.google.de/settings/ads (‘Manage information that Google uses to show you advertising’) and http://www.google.com/ads/preferences (‘Determine which advertising Google shows you’).

As an alternative to the browser add-on or within browsers on mobile devices, please install the Ghostery app.

By using this website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.
 

YouTube

We integrate some videos from the ‘YouTube’ platform of the provider Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. This integration means that data is exchanged in the background for tracking purposes. If you do not wish to disclose any data about yourself, please log out of your Google account or use a plugin such as Ghostery to block the exchange of data. You can find the Google privacy policy here.

 

Google Maps

We integrate the map service ‘Google Maps’ from the provider Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. This integration means that data is exchanged in the background for tracking purposes. If you do not wish to disclose any data about yourself, please log out of your Google account or use a plugin such as Ghostery to block the exchange of data. You can find the Google privacy policy here.

 

Integration of third-party services and content

It may happen that third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites are integrated into this online offering. This always presupposes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as ‘third-party providers’) recognise the IP address of the user. This is because without the IP address, they would not be able to send the content to the respective user's browser. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. We endeavour to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, we have no influence on whether the third-party providers store the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. Insofar as we are aware of this, we will inform users of this.

If you do not wish to disclose any data about yourself, please log out of your Google account or use a plugin such as Ghostery to block the exchange of data. You can find the Google privacy policy here.

 

Right to information, deletion, blocking

You have the right to free information about your stored personal data at any time. In particular their origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing as well as a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data.

 

Objection to unsolicited advertising emails or post

We hereby object to the use of the contact data published as part of our obligation to provide a legal notice for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information material. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam e-mails or post.
