This Privacy Policy applies to the use of this website. The legal entity responsible for operating the website is hereinafter referred to as the “Website Operator” or the “Controller”.
The Website Operator attaches great importance to the protection of personal data. Personal data are collected, processed and used exclusively in accordance with the principles described below and applicable data protection laws.
I. CONTACT DETAILS OF THE CONTROLLER
The controller responsible for the processing of personal data in connection with this website is the legal entity identified as the website operator in the Imprint or Legal Notice published on this website.
The Controller’s current name, postal address, telephone number, email address and other contact details are set out in the Imprint or Legal Notice.
Questions concerning this Privacy Policy, the processing of personal data or the exercise of data protection rights may be addressed to the Controller using those contact details.
Where the Controller has appointed a data protection officer, adviser or coordinator, the relevant contact details will also be published in the Imprint, Legal Notice or a separate data protection section of the website.
II. Description and scope of data processing
1. Scope of the processing of personal data
The Controller’s processing of personal data is limited to what is necessary to provide a functional and secure website and the associated services.
Personal data are processed only for specified and legitimate purposes and where an applicable legal basis exists under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) or other applicable data protection laws. Depending on the circumstances, processing may be based on consent, the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures, compliance with a legal obligation, or the legitimate interests of the Controller or a third party.
The Controller collects only personal data that are necessary for the provision of its services or that users voluntarily provide.
2. Visitor and usage data
When the website is accessed, the systems used to operate it automatically process certain technical data and information transmitted by the accessing device. Depending on the technical configuration, these may include:
  • browser type and version;
  • operating system;
  • IP address;
  • date and time of access;
  • the requested page or file;
  • the website from which the user accessed this website; and
  • access status and transferred data volume.
These data are processed to provide the website, ensure its stability and operational security, detect technical faults and protect the Controller’s systems against unauthorised access and misuse.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, where applicable. The Controller’s legitimate interests are the secure, stable and efficient operation of the website and the protection of its information systems.
The data are generally stored for no longer than one month and are then deleted or anonymised. Data may be retained for a longer period where this is necessary to investigate a security incident, prevent misuse, establish or defend legal claims, or comply with a legal obligation.
Technical hosting and IT service providers may process these data on behalf of the Controller where this is necessary for the operation and security of the website.
3. Web analysis and targeting tools
We currently do not use web analysis, behavioural advertising, retargeting or comparable tracking tools on this website.
4. Cookies
This website uses technically necessary cookies where required for its secure and proper operation.
Cookies are small data files stored on a user’s device or accessed through the browser. The cookies currently used are session cookies or other technically necessary cookies. Session cookies are normally deleted automatically when the browser session ends.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, where applicable. The Controller’s legitimate interest is to provide a secure and functional website.
Users may configure their browsers to restrict or prevent the storage of cookies. Disabling technically necessary cookies may, however, restrict certain website functions.
The Website Operator does not use cookies for behavioural advertising or personalised targeting.
5. Contact forms and other enquiries
Users may contact the Website Operator using the email address, telephone number or other communication channels published in the website’s Imprint or Legal Notice and, where available, through a contact form on the website.
When a user contacts the Website Operator, the Controller processes the personal data provided by that user. These data may include the user’s name, contact details, company, subject of the enquiry, message content and related correspondence. The data are processed for the purpose of handling and responding to the enquiry.
Where an enquiry concerns a possible or existing contractual relationship, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, where applicable. For other business or general enquiries, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The Controller’s legitimate interest is to respond to enquiries and maintain appropriate business communications.
Where the Controller is legally required to retain communications or related records, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(c) GDPR, where applicable.
The data are deleted when they are no longer required for the relevant purpose, unless a longer retention period is required by law or is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
Employees and authorized persons responsible for handling the enquiry and, where necessary, IT, email and other service providers acting on behalf of the Controller may have access to the data.
6. Newsletter
Users may subscribe to the Website Operator’s newsletter or mailing list by providing their email address. Where requested, the Controller may also process a subscriber’s name, company, language or communication preferences.
The data are processed for the purpose of sending the requested newsletter and related information concerning the Website Operator. The legal basis is consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, where applicable.
The Website Operator uses a double opt-in procedure. Following registration, the subscriber receives an email requesting confirmation of the subscription. The Controller processes the date and time of registration and confirmation, together with related technical information, in order to document the subscription.
The newsletter may be distributed through an external email-distribution service provider acting on behalf of the Controller under appropriate contractual and data protection arrangements.
Newsletters may contain technologies that allow the Controller to determine whether a newsletter was opened and which links were selected. This information is used to measure and improve communications. The legal basis is consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, where applicable.
Subscribers may withdraw their consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in each newsletter or by contacting the Controller using the contact details published in the website’s Imprint or Legal Notice. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
Following withdrawal, the subscriber’s email address will be removed from the active mailing list. The Controller may retain limited information in a suppression list to ensure that no further newsletters are sent and to document the withdrawal.
Where the newsletter service provider processes personal data outside the European Economic Area, the transfer is made on the basis of an adequacy decision or other appropriate safeguards in accordance with Articles 44 et seq. GDPR, where applicable.
7. File downloads
Users are not required to register or provide their name or contact details in order to download publicly available files from the website.
When a file is accessed or downloaded, the technical visitor and usage data described in Section II.2 are processed in the same manner as for other website access.
8. Recipients and service providers
Within the Website Operator’s organisation, personal data are accessible only to employees and authorised persons who require access for the relevant purpose.
Where necessary, personal data may also be processed by service providers acting on behalf of the Controller, including providers of website hosting, IT support, cybersecurity, email, communications and newsletter-distribution services. Such service providers are contractually required to process personal data in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.
Personal data may also be disclosed to professional advisers, auditors, public authorities, courts, regulators or supervisory authorities where this is necessary or legally required.
9. Transfers outside the European Economic Area
Some service providers may process personal data outside the European Economic Area.
Where personal data are transferred to a country recognised by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of data protection, the transfer is based on the relevant adequacy decision.
In other cases, the Controller uses appropriate safeguards in accordance with Articles 44 et seq. GDPR, including, where applicable, the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
Further information concerning the applicable safeguards may be requested using the Controller’s contact details published in the website’s Imprint or Legal Notice.
10. Automated decision-making
The Website Operator does not use the website to make decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produce legal effects concerning users or similarly significantly affect them within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR.
II. Data security
This website uses SSL/TLS encryption at the highest level supported by the user’s browser. Encrypted transmission can generally be identified by the key or lock symbol displayed in the browser’s address bar.
In addition, the Controller applies appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful alteration, loss, destruction, unauthorized disclosure or access by third parties. These security measures are regularly reviewed and adapted in line with technological developments.
III. Your data protection rights
Subject to the conditions and limitations of the GDPR and other applicable data protection laws, individuals whose personal data are processed have the following rights:
  • Right of access: You have the right to obtain confirmation from the Controller as to whether personal data concerning you are being processed.

  • Right to rectification, erasure and restriction of processing: You have the right to request the correction of inaccurate personal data and the completion of incomplete personal data concerning you. You may also request the erasure of your personal data where the applicable legal conditions are met, including where the data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed, consent has been withdrawn and no other legal basis applies, or the data have been processed unlawfully. You may also request the restriction of processing where the applicable legal conditions are met. 
  • Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn and does not affect processing based on another legal basis.
  • Right to data portability: Where the applicable legal conditions are met, you have the right to receive personal data that you have provided to the Controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You may also have the right to have those data transmitted directly to another controller where this is technically feasible.
  • Right to object: Where processing is based on the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or on the legitimate interests of the Controller or a third party, you have the right to object to such processing on grounds relating to your particular situation. The Controller will cease processing the relevant personal data unless it demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
  • Right to object to direct marketing: You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for direct-marketing purposes, including any related profiling. Following such an objection, the Controller will no longer process your personal data for those purposes.
  • Right to lodge a complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority competent for the Controller. Where the GDPR applies, you may also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in the EEA state of your habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.
The supervisory authority competent for the Controller is the data protection authority responsible for the jurisdiction in which the Controller is established. Its current name and contact details may be obtained from the relevant authority’s official website or from the Controller upon request.
Where the GDPR applies, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in the EEA state of your habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.
