General information about cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on the end device (PC, tablet, phone) and saved by your browser. Cookies do not cause any damage to your terminal device and serve to enable a more comfortable use of the website.

Cookies allow us, or a third-party website, to remember the visitor’s actions and preferences (e.g., login, language, font size, and other display preferences) over a period of time. Cookies often contain unique identifiers that web servers send to web browsers, which can then be sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Web servers can use cookies to identify and track users as they navigate different pages of a website and to identify users who return to a website. You can also set your browser to notify you about cookies or choose to not allow them.

Technical and non-technical Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

Cookies that are not strictly necessary to provide you with the services on our website (non-technical cookies) will only be used after your consent. In some cases, these consent-based cookies are also operated by companies that process data in the USA (e.g. Google Ireland Ltd. through its commissioned data processor Google LLC). By giving your consent, you agree to the use of non-technical cookies, especially the analytics and marketing cookies in the course of your visit to our website. By agreeing to the use of cookies from these providers, you also expressly consent to the transfer of your data to the USA (Art 49 para 1 lit. a GDPR). Your consent to the use of non-technical cookies can be revoked at any time.

We use Google Analytics Cookies (non-technical cookies).

These are for online marketing and web analysis. Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, and its holding company Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, offer these cookies.

Processing of other Digital content

We use Adobe Fonts on some of our websites.

On some of our websites, we use Adobe Fonts. This is a service that provides access to a font library for use in desktop applications and websites. As part of providing the Adobe Fonts service to websites, Adobe does not place or use cookies on websites. The digital content of Adobe Fonts is stored on external servers. See here for more information regarding Adobe Fonts and their data privacy: https://www.adobe.com/mena_en/privacy/policies/adobe-fonts.html.

If you are redirected to other sites via links on our site (e.g. Facebook or Instagram), we ask you to inform yourself about data protection on the respective other website. For example you can read the data protection policy from Meta here: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/.

Please note that the use of such third-party sites or content is subject to the privacy policies and usage terms of the third party instead of our own terms and we do not have control or assume any liability regarding their data processing.

Data sharing, collection, and storage of personal data

We do not share your personal data with third parties without your consent. However, there are cases where we are legally obliged to share personal data with authorities. This is the case, for example, in the course of criminal investigations.

The browser working on your end device automatically sends information to the respective servers of our service providers when you visit our websites. The information is temporarily stored on these servers. The following data is affected by this and is stored until it is automatically deleted: IP address of the requesting computer, date/time of access, name/URL of the retrieved file, referrer URL, browser used, the used operating system/name of the access provider.

We have concluded Data Processing Agreements with our hosting providers to protect your data.

In accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this information may be used for purposes such as ensuring a seamless connection of the website, ensuring a comfortable use of our website, evaluating system security and stability, as well as for other administrative purposes. We do not use this data for personal profiling or similar purposes under any circumstances. If we make evaluations, then these are made anonymously.

We may process your data outside the country where you live in (for example if you are an EU citizen, outside the EU) because some of our servers are located in the US and Asia. This can also happen if, for instance, the service provider of our analytical services is located outside your country. In such cases, we will take steps to ensure that your personal data is processed lawfully and in accordance with this privacy policy.

Data security

We secure your data properly and use all necessary technical and organizational measures in this regard. Nevertheless, we must point out that complete protection of data against unlawful access by third parties is not possible, especially due to cyberattacks.

For all our websites and Data transfers we use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption for security and to protect confidential content. You can recognize this encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://”, as well as by the lock symbol. SSL encryption prevents third parties from reading the data that is transmitted.

Data subject rights (your rights as a subject of data processing)

You have extensive rights under data protection law as a data subject. These are your rights as a data subject: Right of information about the processing of your personal data, right to rectification, right to deletion also known as right to be forgotten, right to restriction of processing, right to object to processing and the right to withdraw consent. If you have any further questions in this regard, please contact us. We will explain your rights to you.

You also have the right to complain to the data protection authority in your country if you believe that your rights have been violated. Here is a list with all European Data Protection Authorities and their contact information: https://edpb.europa.eu/about-edpb/about-edpb/members_en. However, we would still appreciate it if you would contact us first before approaching any of the authorities. We will listen to you and your concerns and take care of them in all seriousness.
