Collection of General Information When Visiting Our Website

Nature and Purpose of Data Processing:

When you access our website, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise transmit information, information of a general nature is automatically collected. This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your Internet service provider, your IP address and similar.

They are processed in particular for the following purposes:

Ensuring a smooth connection setup of the website, ensuring smooth use of our website, evaluating system security and stability, and optimizing our website.

We do not use your data to draw conclusions about your person. Information of this kind is evaluated by us, if necessary, in anonymized form for statistical purposes, in order to optimize our website and the technology behind it.

Legal basis and legitimate interest:

The processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.

Recipients of the data may be technical service providers who act as processors for the operation and maintenance of our website.

Storage duration:

In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after at most 14 days. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are anonymized, so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.

Provision required or necessary:

The provision of the aforementioned personal data is neither legally nor contractually required. However, without the IP address, the service and functionality of our website cannot be guaranteed. In addition, individual services and features may not be available or restricted. For this reason, an objection is excluded.

GDPR), we use HubSpot, a platform for inbound marketing and sales. HubSpot uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about the use of the online offer by the users is usually transmitted to a HubSpot server in the USA and stored there.

HubSpot will use this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our online offer by users, to compile reports on the activities within this online offer, and to provide us with further services associated with the use of this online offer and the internet.

This means that the IP address of the user is shortened by HubSpot within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a HubSpot server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address transmitted by the user’s browser is not combined with other HubSpot data. Users can prevent the storage of cookies by setting their browser software accordingly.
