11. Data protection provisions for the application and use of Google Analytics (with anonymization function)

This website uses Google Analytics (with anonymization function), a web analysis service from Google Inc. (“Google”). A web analysis is the collection, collection and evaluation of data on visitor behavior and the use of individual websites. These data mostly consist of the so-called referrer URL, the address from which a person concerned came to our website and information on the use of the individual sub-pages (e.g. an overview of the pages clicked on, the frequency of visits and the length of time spent on them Pages). A web analysis is mainly used to optimize a website and for a cost-benefit analysis.

The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The data obtained are used by Google, in addition to evaluating the use of our website, to compile online reports on the activities on our website and to provide other services related to the use of our website.

For this purpose, Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your digital device (e.g. computer or smartphone) and that enable your use of the website to be analyzed (see also 7. Use of cookies). The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. However, due to the IP anonymization on this website, your IP address will be previously shortened and anonymized by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases.

In addition, the internet browser on the data subject’s digital device automatically transmits data to Google for the purpose of online analysis every time a subpage on this website is accessed on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated. With the help of this technical process in the background of the website visited, Google gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the person concerned. Google uses this specific data to compile reports on website activity (e.g. the origin of the visitors and the number of clicks) and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

By storing the cookies described above on the digital device of the data subject, personal information such as the access time, the location from which the access was made and the

 frequency of visits, including the IP address of the data subject, are saved each time they visit our website Internet connection used, transmitted to and stored by Google in the United States of America. Under certain circumstances, Google may also pass this personal data collected through the technical process on to third parties.

The person concerned can prevent the storage of cookies by our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting in the browser software used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. At this point, however, we would like to point out that in this case the person concerned may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. Such a setting in the browser software used would also prevent Google from placing a cookie on the data subject’s digital device. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be subsequently deleted at any time using the browser software or other software programs.

The data subject can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to their use of the website (including their IP address) and from processing this data by Google by using the browser available at the following link. Download the plugin and install it on your digital device: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. The installation of the browser add-on is evaluated by Google as an objection, which prevents data and information on visits to Internet pages from being transmitted to Google Analytics via JavaScript. If the digital end device of the data subject is deleted, formatted or reinstalled at a later point in time, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on in order to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the person concerned or another person who is attributable to their sphere of influence, there is the option of reinstalling or reactivating the browser add-on at any time.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/ de.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail under this link https://www.google.com/intl/ de_de/analytics/.

12. SSL

In order to provide visitors to our website with more security when transmitting personal data, we work with SSL encryption. This encryption is used for inquiries that you send to us via our website. Data encrypted via SSL cannot be viewed by third parties. Please always ensure that SSL encryption is activated on your part when transferring personal data or other confidential data. The use of encryption is easy to recognize: The Internet address in your browser address line is preceded by https: // instead of http: //.

13. Children and young people

Affected persons who have not yet reached the age of 18 should not transmit any personal data to us without the consent of their parents or a legal guardian. In general, we do not request any personal data from children and young people on our website, we do not collect this and do not pass it on to third parties.

14. Data protection provisions for the application and use of YouTube

As the controller, we have integrated components from YouTube on this website. YouTube is a free online video portal that enables users worldwide to post video clips and other users to view, rate and comment on them free of charge.

YouTube is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

You can find more information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube and Google in the data protection provisions at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/ privacy/.

15. Legal basis for processing

Our company uses Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.

If the processing of personal data is based on the fulfillment of a contract between the controller and the data subject, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the provision of a service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre- contractual measures.

If the processing of personal data is required by a legal obligation of our company (e.g. fulfillment of tax obligations), the processing is based on Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter c GDPR.

In addition, there could be a situation within our company in which the processing of personal data is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our company were injured and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital personal information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. In this case, the processing would be based on Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter d GDPR.

Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f GDPR. Processing operations are based on this legal basis if processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the person concerned do not outweigh them, especially if the person concerned is a child. The European legislator takes the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the person concerned is a customer of the person responsible (recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).

16. Legitimate interests in the processing that are being pursued by the controller or a third party If the processing of personal data is based on Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f GDPR, our legitimate interest is the conduct of our business activities for the benefit of our employees and our shareholders.

17. SSL encryption

In order to provide visitors to our website with more security when transmitting personal data, we work with SSL encryption. This encryption is used for inquiries that you send to us via our website. Data encrypted via SSL cannot be viewed by third parties. Please always ensure that SSL encryption is activated on your part when transferring personal data or other confidential data. The use of encryption is easy to recognize: The Internet address in your browser address line is preceded by https: // instead of http: //.

18. Storage period for personal data

 The storage period of personal data is regulated by the respective statutory retention period. If this period expires, the collected data will be routinely deleted, provided that they are no longer part of a contract performance or contract initiation.

19. Information on the mandatory provision of personal data by the data subject

At this point, we would like to inform you that the legislature prescribes the provision of personal data in part (e.g. tax regulations) or that the provision of data may result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner). For example, if the person concerned concludes a contract with our company, they are obliged to provide us with personal data. If this data is not made available to us for the conclusion of the contract, the contract with our company could not come into being. The person concerned can contact an employee at any time before providing personal data, who will be happy to inform them on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is necessary and required by law or contract. In addition, we inform the data subject whether the provision of personal data is mandatory in the individual case and what consequences the failure to provide the data would have.

20. Existence of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

21. Legal validity and choice of law

This data protection declaration is to be regarded as part of the internet publication which you were referred from. If parts or individual formulations of this data protection declaration do not, no longer or not completely correspond to the current legal situation, the remaining parts of the document remain unaffected in their content and validity. The German law applies. In the case of consumers, this choice of law only applies insofar as this does not remove the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer is habitually resident (favourability principle).
