If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, insofar as special categories of data are processed pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing also takes place on the basis of Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR.

Information on the relevant legal basis applicable in each individual case is provided in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.
Recipients of personal data
In the course of our business activities, we work together with various external parties. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in the disclosure, or if some other legal basis permits the disclosure of data. Where we use processors, we only pass on our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint controllership agreement is concluded.
Withdrawal of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to object to the collection of data in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE PURPOSE OF ASSERTING, EXERCISING OR DEFENDING LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged violation. This right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
Right of access, rectification and erasure
Within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if applicable, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. You may contact us at any time regarding this and other questions on the subject of personal data.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its erasure.
If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may – with the exception of its storage – only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.
SSL/TLS encryption
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 site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser line.
If SSL/TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Encrypted payment transactions on this website
If, after conclusion of a contract subject to charges, you are obliged to provide us with your payment details (e.g. account number for direct debit authorisation), this data is required for payment processing.
Payment transactions using common means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are carried out exclusively via an encrypted SSL/TLS connection. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser line.
With encrypted communication, your payment details transmitted to us cannot be read by third parties.
Objection to promotional emails
We hereby object to the use of contact details published within the scope of the obligation to provide legal notice (Impressum) for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information materials. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of promotional information, such as via spam emails.

Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services provided by third-party companies within websites (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).
Cookies have various functions. Numerous cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to evaluate user behavior or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are required for carrying out the electronic communication process, for providing certain functions you wish to use (e.g. for the shopping cart function), or for optimizing the website (e.g. cookies for measuring the web audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services.

The data collected in this way is stored until you request us to delete it, you delete the Cookiebot cookie yourself, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention obligations remain unaffected.
Cookiebot is used to obtain the legally required consents for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.
Data Processing Agreement
We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract mandated by data protection law that ensures that this provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Operating system used
Referrer URL
Host name of the accessing computer
Time of the server request
IP address
This data is not combined with other data sources.
This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website – for this purpose, the server log files must be collected.
Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, the information you provide in the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, provided that your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of the inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if this has been requested; this consent may be withdrawn at any time.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request that we delete it, you withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for which it is stored no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
Inquiry by Email, Telephone, or Fax
If you contact us by email, telephone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
Use of Chatbots
We use chatbots to communicate with you. Chatbots are able to respond to your questions and other input without human assistance. To do this, in addition to your input, the chatbots analyze further data in order to provide appropriate responses (e.g. names, email addresses and other contact details, customer numbers and other identifiers, orders and chat histories). Furthermore, the chatbot may collect your IP address, log files, location information, and other metadata. This data is stored on the servers of the chatbot provider.
User profiles may be created on the basis of the data collected. In addition, the data may be used to deliver advertising tailored to your interests, provided the other legal requirements (in particular consent) for this are met. For this purpose, the chatbots may be linked to analytics and advertising tools.
The data collected may also be used to improve our chatbots and their response behavior (machine learning).
The data you enter in the course of communication will remain with us or the chatbot operator until you request that we delete it, you withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for which it is stored no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
The legal basis for the use of chatbots is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, provided that the chatbot is used to initiate or perform a contract. Insofar as corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG, to the extent that the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. This consent may be withdrawn at any time. In all other cases, the use is based on our legitimate interest in the most effective possible customer communication (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Use of AI Applications in Chatbot Communication
Our chatbots use artificial intelligence (AI) in the course of customer communication. In doing so, the AI we use analyzes the content of your message in order to autonomously generate an appropriate response. In this context, the AI processes all content of your message, including names, email addresses, communication content, or technical information (e.g. IP addresses, device information).
The use of the AI software employed is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the most efficient possible customer communication using modern technical solutions. Insofar as corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG. This consent may be withdrawn at any time.
We integrate the following AI applications into our chatbots:
WANDA/Breeze

If the customers in question are Google users and are logged into their Google account, they are shown matching advertising messages within the Google network (e.g. on YouTube, Gmail, or in the search engine).
Google Conversion Tracking
This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
With the help of Google Conversion Tracking, Google and we can determine whether the user has carried out certain actions.

This website uses the Meta visitor action pixel for conversion measurement. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road Dublin 4, Dublin, D04 X2K5, Ireland. However, according to Meta, the data collected is also transferred to the USA and other third countries.
This allows the behavior of website visitors to be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Meta advertisement. This makes it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of Meta advertisements for statistical and market research purposes and to optimize future advertising measures.
The data collected is anonymous to us as the operator of this website; we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Meta, so that a connection to the respective user profile on Facebook or Instagram is possible, and Meta can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Meta Data Use Policy (https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/). This enables Meta to place advertisements on Facebook or Instagram pages and other advertising channels. We, as the website operator, have no influence over this use of the data.
This service is used on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Advanced matching allows us to transmit various types of data (e.g. place of residence, state, postal code, hashed e-mail addresses, names, gender, date of birth, or telephone number) of our customers and prospective customers, which we collect via our website, to Meta. This allows us to tailor our advertising campaigns on Facebook and Instagram even more precisely to people who are interested in our offerings. In addition, advanced matching improves the attribution of website conversions and expands Custom Audiences.
Insofar as personal data is collected on our website using the tool described here and forwarded to Meta, we and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road Dublin 4, Dublin, D04 X2K5, Ireland, are joint controllers for this data processing (Art. 26 GDPR). This joint controllership is limited exclusively to the collection of the data and its transfer to Meta. The processing carried out by Meta after the transfer is not part of the joint controllership. Our joint obligations have been set out in an agreement on joint processing. The text of the agreement can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum. According to this agreement, we are responsible for providing the data protection information when using the Meta tool and for the data-protection-compliant implementation of the tool on our website. Meta is responsible for the data security of the Meta products. You can assert data subject rights (e.g. requests for information) regarding the data processed at Facebook or Instagram directly with Meta. If you assert your data subject rights with us, we are obliged to forward them to Meta.
The transfer of data to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/legal/EU_data_transfer_addendum and https://de-de.facebook.com/help/566994660333381.

11. Our Own Services
Handling of Applicant Data
We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g., by email, by post, or via our online application form). Below, we inform you about the scope, purpose, and use of your personal data collected in the course of the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing, and use of your data take place in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions, and that your data is treated in strict confidence.
Scope and Purpose of Data Collection
If you submit an application to us, we process your personal data associated with it (e.g., contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary for deciding whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (general initiation of a contract) and – provided you have given your consent – Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. Within our company, your personal data is disclosed exclusively to persons involved in processing your application.
If your application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the purpose of performing the employment relationship.
In the course of the application process, we may also conduct an internet search regarding your person. This primarily includes searching Google, LinkedIn, and Xing. The legal basis for this type of processing is our legitimate interest, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, in obtaining an overall impression of publicly available information about you.
Retention Period of the Data
If we are unable to offer you a position, if you decline a job offer, or if you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you submitted, on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), for up to 6 months from the conclusion of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data will then be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. This retention serves in particular evidentiary purposes in the event of a legal dispute. If it becomes apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g., due to a threatened or pending legal dispute), deletion will not take place until the purpose for further retention ceases to apply.
Longer retention may also take place if you have given corresponding consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations preclude deletion.
Inclusion in the Applicant Pool
If we do not offer you a position, there may be the possibility of including you in our applicant pool. If you are included, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool in order to contact you should suitable vacancies arise.
Inclusion in the applicant pool takes place exclusively on the basis of your express consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Giving consent is voluntary and is not related to the ongoing application process. The data subject may withdraw their consent at any time. In this case, the data will be irrevocably deleted from the applicant pool, provided no statutory retention grounds exist.
The data in the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent was given.
