Collection and processing of personal data

Contact form

If you send us an inquiry via the contact form, the information you provide (name, email address, phone number, company and your message) will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. For the technical transmission of the form data to our mailbox, we use the Formspree service (Formspree, Inc., USA) as a processor. The information is processed on Formspree servers and forwarded to us by email. Any transfer to the USA takes place on the basis of the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. No further disclosure to third parties takes place. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (performance of pre-contractual measures).

Direct contact

If you contact us by email or phone, the personal data you transmit will be stored and used exclusively for processing your inquiry. It will not be disclosed to third parties. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to inquiries).

Server log files

The hosting provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser transmits automatically. These are: browser type and version, operating system used, referrer URL, host name of the accessing computer, time of the server request and IP address. This data cannot be attributed to specific persons and is not merged with other data sources. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics uses so-called cookies, i.e. text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website.

We have activated IP anonymization on this website. As a result, your IP address is first truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.

The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Further information on data protection at Google can be found at policies.google.com/privacy.

Cookies

This website uses technically necessary cookies that are required for the operation of the website and, subject to your express consent, analytics cookies (Google Analytics). Technically necessary cookies cannot be deactivated, as the proper functioning of the website cannot be guaranteed without them. You can withdraw your consent to analytics cookies at any time with effect for the future.

Data security

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser's address bar changing from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock icon in your browser bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties. We also take appropriate technical and organizational security measures in accordance with Art. 32 GDPR.
