The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy statement explains what information we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may have security gaps. It is not possible to completely protect data from access by third parties.

Note on data transfer to the USA
Our website includes tools from companies based in the USA. When these tools are active, your personal data can be transmitted to the US servers of the respective companies. We would like to point out that the USA is not a safe third country within the meaning of EU data protection law. US companies are required to disclose personal data to security authorities without you, as the person concerned, being able to take legal action against it. It cannot therefore be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. secret services) may process, evaluate and permanently store your data on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing processes.
Withdrawal of consent to data processing
Many data processing processes are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to object to the collection of data in certain cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6 PARA. 1 LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH THE PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY.

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH ADVERTISING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING, INSOFAR AS IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ARTICLE 21 (2) GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract to be transmitted to you or a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another person responsible for processing, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
SSL or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection when the browser's address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you submit to us cannot be read by third parties.

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify it. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. If your personal data has been processed unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of deletion. If you have filed an objection in accordance with Article 21 paragraph 1 GDPR, a balance must be made between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been clarified whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data - apart from storage - may only be processed with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

The data collected is anonymous to us as the operator of this website; we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a link to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook data usage policy. This allows Facebook to place advertisements on Facebook pages and outside of Facebook. As the site operator, we cannot influence this use of data.
The Facebook pixel is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in effective advertising measures involving social media. If appropriate consent has been obtained (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Further data is not collected or is only collected on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively to send the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
The data entered in the newsletter subscription form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can withdraw your consent to the storage of data, email address and their use to send the newsletter at any time, for example via the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter.

If you do not want your data to be sent to Mailchimp, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message. You can also unsubscribe from the newsletter directly on the website.
Data processing is based on your consent (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation.

8. YouTube plugins and tools with improved data protection.
This website embeds videos from YouTube. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode means that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, the extended data protection mode does not necessarily preclude the transfer of data to YouTube partners. This is how YouTube connects to the Google DoubleClick network regardless of whether you are watching a video.
As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to associate your surfing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
In addition, after you start a video, YouTube can save various cookies on your device or use comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device fingerprinting). In this way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to create video statistics, improve the user experience and prevent fraud attempts.
After the start of a YouTube video, further data processing processes may be triggered over which we have no influence.
The use of YouTube is in the interest of presenting our online offerings in an appealing way and represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If consent has been obtained, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.
For more information about YouTube's privacy policy, please see the privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.
Vimeo without tracking (do-not-track).
This website uses plugins from the video portal Vimeo. The provider is Vimeo Inc, 555 West 18th Street, New York 10011, USA.
When you visit one of our pages with Vimeo videos, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established. This tells the Vimeo server which of our pages you have visited. Vimeo also receives your IP address. However, we have set Vimeo so that Vimeo does not track your user activity and does not set cookies.
The use of Vimeo is in the interest of presenting our online offer in an appealing way and represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If consent has been obtained, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.
For more information on how to handle user data, please see Vimeo's privacy policy at: https://vimeo.com/privacy.

When you visit a website on which OpenStreetMap is embedded, your IP address and other information about your behavior on this website are forwarded to OSMF. OpenStreetMap can store cookies in your browser or use similar recognition technologies for this purpose.
In addition, your location can be recorded if you have allowed this in your device settings - e.g. on your mobile phone. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transfer.

Google reCAPTCHA
We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
The purpose of reCAPTCHA is to check whether the data entered on this website (e.g. in a contact form) is carried out by a person or by an automated program. For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyses the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g. IP address, time the website visitor spent on the website or the user's mouse movements). The data collected during the evaluation is forwarded to Google.
The reCAPTCHA analyses run completely in the background. Visitors to the website are not informed that an analysis is being carried out.
The data is stored and evaluated on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offers from abusive automated spying and from SPAM. If consent has been obtained, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.
For more information about Google reCAPTCHA, please see the Google Privacy Policy and Google Terms of Use at the following links: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de and

9. Online marketing and partner programs
Amazon Partner Program
The operators of this website participate in the Amazon EU partner program. Amazon ads and links to the Amazon.de site are integrated on this website, where we can earn money by reimbursing advertising costs. Amazon uses cookies or similar recognition technologies (such as device fingerprinting) to track the origin of orders. This allows Amazon to recognize that you have clicked on the partner link on this website.
The data is stored and evaluated on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in correctly calculating his affiliate fee. If appropriate consent has been obtained (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

10. Audio and video conferences
data processing
Among other things, we use online conference tools to communicate with our customers. The specific tools we use are listed below. When you communicate with us via video or audio conferences over the Internet, your personal data is collected and processed by us and the provider of the respective conference tool.
The conference tools collect all data that you provide/enter to use the tools (email address and/or telephone number). In addition, the conference tools process the duration of the conference, the start and end (time) of participation in the conference, number of participants, and other “contextual information” related to the communication process (metadata).
In addition, the provider of the tool processes all technical data required to process online communication. These include in particular IP addresses, MAC addresses, device IDs, device type, operating system type and version, client version, camera type, microphone or loudspeaker, and the type of connection.
When content is exchanged, uploaded or otherwise made available within the tool, it is also stored on the servers of the tool providers. This content includes cloud recordings, chat/instant messages, voice messages, uploaded photos and videos, files, whiteboards, and other information shared while using the service.
Please note that we do not have full control over the data processing operations of the tools used. Our options are largely based on the corporate policy of the respective provider. For more information on data processing by the conference tools, please refer to the privacy policies of the tools used in each case, which we have listed below this text.
Purpose and legal basis
The conference tools are used to communicate with potential or existing contract partners or to offer our customers certain services (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b GDPR). In addition, the use of the tools serves to generally simplify and speed up communication with us or our company (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR). If consent has been obtained, the relevant tools are used on the basis of this consent; consent can be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future.
Storage period
The data collected by us directly via the video and conference tools is deleted from our systems as soon as you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Saved cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory legal storage periods remain unaffected by this.
We have no influence on the duration of storage of your data, which is stored by the operators of the conference tools for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the conference tools directly.

11. own services
Handling applicant data
We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, by post or via online application form). In the following, we will inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data is carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other legal regulations and that your data will be kept strictly confidential.
Scope and purpose of data collection
When you apply to us, we process the associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, interview notes, etc.) insofar as this is necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG-neu (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (general contract initiation) and - if you have given your consent - Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The consent can be withdrawn at any time. Your personal data will only be shared within our company with people who are involved in processing your application.
If your application is successful, the data you provide will be stored on the basis of § 26 BDSG-neu and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.
Data storage period
If we are unable to provide you with a job offer, you decline a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to keep the data you have provided based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) for up to 6 months after completion of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application).
The data is then deleted and the physical application documents are destroyed. This storage serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is foreseeable that the data will be required after the 6-month period has elapsed (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will only be deleted when the purpose of further storage no longer applies.
Longer storage can also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if legal storage obligations preclude deletion.
Inclusion in the pool of applicants
If we do not make you a job offer, it is possible that we will add you to our pool of applicants. If you are accepted, all documents and information from your application will be added to the pool of applicants so that we can contact you if there are suitable job offers.
Inclusion in the pool of applicants is based exclusively on your express consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). The granting of consent is voluntary and is not related to the ongoing application process. The person concerned can withdraw their consent at any time. In this case, the data will be irrevocably deleted from the applicant pool, unless there are legal reasons for storage.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been given.
Our presence on social media
Data processing through social networks
We maintain publicly available profiles on social networks. The social networks we use in detail can be found below.
Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. can usually comprehensively analyze your user behavior when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media sites triggers numerous data protection-relevant processing processes. In detail:
If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can associate this visit with your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, this data is collected, for example, via cookies, which are stored on your device or by recording your IP address.
With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be shown to you within and outside the respective social media presence. If you have an account with the respective social network, interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.
Please also note that we cannot track all processing on social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For details, please refer to the terms of use and privacy policy of the respective social media portals.
legal basis
Our social media presence should ensure the broadest possible presence on the Internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by social networks may be based on various legal bases, which must be provided by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) a GDPR).
Responsible person and enforcement of rights
If you visit one of our social media pages (e.g. Facebook), we, together with the operator of the social media platform, are responsible for the data processing processes triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights (information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both against us and against the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. Facebook).
Please note that despite joint responsibility with the operators of the social media portals, we have no full influence on the data processing processes of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider.
Storage period
The data collected by us directly via the social media presence is deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies, you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Saved cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected by this.
We have no influence on the duration of storage of your data, which is stored by social network operators for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).
