3. Data processing when visiting our website 

Each time our website is called up, we temporarily collect and store data with each access to contents of this website through so-called log files, which may permit an identification. The following data are collected hereby: 

  • the date and time of the access to the website 
  • the used browser types and versions 
  • IP address of the computer that calls up the website 
  • Host name of the accessing computer

  • report whether the call was successful 
  • information about the browser type and the used version. 

These data are processed in order to safeguard our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). 

The temporary storage of the data, above all the IP address, is necessary for the operation of a website visit in order to enable the provision of the website. A further storage of the log data is carried out in order to ensure the functionality of the website and the security of the IT systems, in particular the web server. These purposes form our legitimate interests. 

We store the server log files for 7 days. However, we reserve the right to store the server log files longer for a subsequent check should there be concrete indications of an unlawful use. 

We also use services of foreign third-party providers, which collect server log files for their own purposes, on which we have or may have no influence. Please refer to the corresponding section in this privacy policy (Points 7 – 10) for more details.

The North Rhine-Westphalia State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information provides information on how to pseudonymise your IP address. You can find out more in this respect under:

4. Cookies 

We use cookies on our site. They are small files, which are created automatically by your browser and which are stored on your terminal device (laptop, tablet, smartphone or similar device) when you visit our site.

Information is stored in the cookie, which respectively arises in connection with the specifically used terminal device. However, this does not mean that we directly receive knowledge of your identity hereby. Cookies do not cause any damages to your terminal device either.

By using technical cookies, we aim to make the use of our service more convenient for you. We therefore use so-called session cookies in order to recognise that you have visited individual pages of our website already. The majority of cookies are, as a rule, deleted automatically once you have left our site (“maximum age: end of session”).

Example: If you agree to the use of website tracking technologies of third parties when our website is called up for the first time, then your selection will be stored in a cookie. This cookie notes your selection, even if you now call up other sub-pages of our homepage.

The data processed by cookies are necessary for the stated purposes in order to safeguard our legitimate interests as well as those of third parties according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

The majority of browsers accept cookies automatically. You can, however, configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or so that a message always appears before a new cookie is created. The full deactivation of cookies may, however, lead to the fact that you cannot use all functions of our website.

We also use services that may set cookies of third-party providers on your terminal device. For more details, in this respect please refer to the corresponding section in this privacy policy. You have the option of configuring your browser in such a way that JavaScript is not executed.

Owing to the possibly lower level of data protection in the third countries it is possible, under certain circumstances, that you cannot assert your rights as a data subject at these recipients or only partly assert such rights. Furthermore, your data could be exposed to access by third party authorities and legal remedies at courts and authorities overseas may not lead to success.
