First and foremost, we process personal data that you provide to us or that we collect when operating our website. We may also receive personal data about you from third parties. This may include the following categories:
6.2 Under what conditions do we process your data?
We process your data in good faith and for the purposes set out in this privacy policy. In doing so, we ensure transparent and proportionate processing.
If, in exceptional cases, we are unable to comply with these principles, the data processing may still be lawful because there is a justification. One possible justification is the following:
6.3 How can you withdraw consent?
If you have given us consent to process your personal data for specific purposes, we will process your data within the scope of this consent unless we have another justification.
You can revoke your consent at any time by sending an e-mail to the address given in the imprint. Data processing that has already taken place is not affected by this.

6.4 In which cases can we pass on your data to third parties?
Principle
We may need to use the services of third parties or affiliates to process your data. We contractually ensure that third parties and affiliated companies comply with the requirements of data protection. We may also be obliged to disclose your data to authorities. We will only share your personal data if:
Transfer abroad
Under certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to companies abroad within the scope of commissioned processing. These companies are obligated to data protection to the same extent as we are. The transfer may take place worldwide.
If the level of data protection does not correspond to that in the EEA area, we carry out a prior risk assessment and ensure contractually that the same level of protection is guaranteed as in the EEA area (e.g. by means of the new standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission or other measures prescribed by law). If our risk assessment is negative, we will take additional technical measures to protect your data. You can access the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses here.
6.5 How long do we keep your data?
We only store personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the individual purposes for which the data was collected.
Data that we store when you visit our website is kept for twelve months. An exception is made for analytics and tracking data, which may be retained for longer.
We store contract data for longer, as we are obliged to do so by legal regulations. In particular, we have to keep business communication, concluded contracts and accounting vouchers for up to 10 years. As far as we no longer need such data from you to perform the services, the data will be blocked and we will only use it for accounting and tax purposes.
6.6 How do we protect your data?
We will keep your data secure and take all reasonable steps to protect your data from loss, access, misuse or alteration.
Our contractual partners and employees who have access to your data are obliged to comply with the provisions of data protection law. In some cases it will be necessary for us to pass on your enquiries to companies associated with us. In these cases, too, your data will be treated confidentially.
Within our website, we use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) procedure in conjunction with the highest encryption level supported by your browser.

However, we may extend this period due to a high volume of enquiries, for legal or technical reasons or because we need more detailed information from you. You will be informed of the extension of the deadline in good time, at least in text form.
b. Deletion and rectification
You can request the deletion or correction of your data at any time. We can refuse the request if legal regulations oblige us to keep the data longer or unchanged or if a legal ground opposes your request.

What information do we receive and how do we use it?
Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies". They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser on your next visit. This allows us to save certain settings (such as language settings or location information) so that you do not have to re-enter them when you call up the website again.

How does Google Remarketing work?
With this function, the advertising target groups created with Google Analytics can be linked with the cross-device functions of Google Ad-Words and Google DoubleClick. In this way, interest-based, personalised advertising messages that have been adapted to you depending on your previous usage and surfing behaviour on one end device (e.g. mobile phone) can also be displayed on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC). A link between your web and app browsing history and your Google account is only made for this purpose if you have given the corresponding consent. To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated IDs of users, which are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data. This allows us to define and create target groups for cross-device ad advertising.
Why might we use Google Remarketing?
The aggregation of the collected data in your Google account is based on your consent, which you can give or revoke at Google. In the case of data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g. because you do not have a Google account or have objected to the merger), the collection of data is based on our legitimate interest in acquiring new customers via advertising and using our website profitably.
How can you prevent the collection of your data via Google Remarketing?
You can object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by deactivating personalised advertising in your Google account under the following link (https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/).

Why are we allowed to use Google AdSense?
This aggregation is based on your consent, which you can give or withdraw at Google. In the case of data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g. because you do not have a Google account or have objected to the merging), the collection of data is based on our legitimate interest in acquiring new customers via advertising and using our website profitably.This aggregation is based on your consent, which you can give or withdraw at Google.
