2. Access Data and Server Log Files

When you visit this website, the following data is automatically processed, which is technically necessary for operating the website (Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR):

  • IP-Adresse (shortened)

  • Date and time of the request

3. Contact

If you contact us via email or contact form, your details will be stored for the purpose of processing your inquiry and for potential follow-up questions (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).

4. Cookies

Our website uses cookies. Technically necessary cookies ensure the functionality of the site and are set without consent (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Other cookies (e.g., for web analytics) are only set with your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

You can manage your consent through our cookie banner.

5. Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics uses cookies to analyse your use of the website. The generated information (including shortened IP addresses) is usually transmitted to and stored on Google servers, including in the USA.

We use Google Analytics with IP anonymisation enabled. Your IP address is therefore shortened within the EU or EEA before transmission. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

Processing is only based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke your consent at any time via the cookie settings.

6. Use of HubSpot

We use HubSpot, a CRM and marketing tool by HubSpot Inc., 25 First Street, Cambridge, MA 02141, USA, for certain website functions. When using our forms, signing up for newsletters, or interacting with specific content, personal data (e.g., name, email address, IP address, usage behaviour) is transmitted to HubSpot and processed there for marketing, communication, and analysis purposes. Storage and processing of personal data occurs on servers within the EU; HubSpot may also process data in the USA. We have concluded the legally required contracts with HubSpot (including standard contractual clauses). Further information is available in HubSpot’s privacy policy.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to access your stored personal data, request correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability, and object to certain processing.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, especially in the Member State of your residence, workplace, or where the alleged violation occurred.

8. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to adjust this privacy policy in the event of legal or technical changes.
