General Information

Protecting your personal data is our top priority. This principle applies both to our online services and our conventional services.
We would therefore like to inform you here how we implement data protection regulations in our online offerings.

When you access our website, 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, and similar details. This information exclusively comprises data that does not allow any inference to your person. It is technically necessary to correctly deliver requested web content and is inevitably generated when using the internet. Anonymous information of this kind is statistically evaluated by us in order to optimize our website and the underlying technology.

The use by third parties of the contact details published within the scope of the imprint or comparable disclosures—such as postal addresses, telephone and fax numbers, as well as email addresses—for the purpose of sending information not expressly requested is not permitted. We expressly reserve the right to take legal action against the senders of so-called spam emails in the event of violations of this prohibition.

Types of data processed

  • Inventory data (e.g., names, addresses).

  • Contact data (e.g., email, phone numbers).

  • Content data (e.g., text entries, photographs, videos).

  • Usage data (e.g., websites visited, interest in content, access times).

  • Meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses).

Categories of data subjects

Visitors and users of the online offering (hereinafter we also collectively refer to data subjects as “users”).

Purpose of processing

  • Provision of the online offering, its functions and content.

  • Responding to contact inquiries and communicating with users.

  • Security measures.

  • Reach measurement/marketing.

Deletion or blocking of data

We adhere to the principles of data minimization and data economy. We therefore store your personal data only for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes stated here or as required by the various retention periods stipulated by law. After the respective purpose ceases to apply or these periods expire, the corresponding data is routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal regulations.

Your rights to access, rectification, blocking, deletion and objection

You have the right to obtain information at any time about your personal data stored by us. You also have the right to rectification, blocking or—apart from the prescribed data storage for business processing—deletion of your personal data.
To ensure that a blocking of data can be respected at any time, these data must be kept in a block list for control purposes. You can also demand the deletion of the data insofar as there is no legal obligation to archive it. Where such an obligation exists, we will block your data upon request.
You can make changes or revoke consent with effect for the future by notifying us by email or telephone.

Specific Data Processing

Server Log Files

We, or our hosting provider, collect data on the basis of our legitimate interests within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR regarding each access to the server on which this service is located (so-called server log files). Access data include the name of the accessed website, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user’s operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address, and the requesting provider.

Log file information is stored for security reasons (e.g., to investigate misuse or fraud) for a maximum of 7 days and then deleted. Data whose further retention is required for evidentiary purposes are excluded from deletion until the respective incident has been conclusively clarified.

Online Presence in Social Media

We maintain online presences within social networks and platforms in order to communicate with customers, interested parties and users active there and to inform them about our services. When accessing the respective networks and platforms, the terms and data processing policies of their respective operators apply.

Unless otherwise specified in our privacy policy, we process users’ data if they communicate with us within the social networks and platforms, e.g., by posting on our online presences or sending us messages.

Contact Form

If you contact us by email or via a contact form, the data you provide (name, email, telephone number) will be stored for the purpose of processing the inquiry and for possible follow-up questions. If you send us an email, we will use your email address only for correspondence with you; there will of course be no disclosure to third parties.
The collection, processing and use of your personal data is carried out confidentially and for the intended purpose in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and other applicable data protection laws.
The data will be stored by us to the extent you have authorized and will be deleted after the purpose of your contact has been fulfilled.
You may revoke your consent at any time. Your stored personal data are protected in all systems against misuse and unauthorized access and are accessible only to a specific, authorized group of persons via user ID and password. Security measures are continuously adapted to technological progress.

Cookies

Like many other websites, we also use “cookies.” Cookies are small text files that are transferred from a website server to your hard drive. Through this, we automatically receive certain data such as IP address, browser used, operating system of your computer, and your internet connection.
Cookies cannot be used to start programs or transmit viruses to a computer. The information contained in cookies helps us facilitate navigation for you and ensure the correct display of our web pages.
Under no circumstances will the data we collect be passed on to third parties or linked to personal data without your consent.
Of course, you can also view our website without cookies. Internet browsers are regularly set to accept cookies. Most of the cookies we use are “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after you leave our site. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. If cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

Privacy Policy for the Use of Google+

Our pages use features of Google+. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Collection and sharing of information: With the Google+ button you can publish information worldwide. Via the Google+ button, you and other users receive personalized content from Google and our partners.

Google records information about your +1 activities to improve Google services for you and others. To use the Google+ button, you need a globally visible, public Google profile that must at least contain the name chosen for the profile. This name is used across all Google services. In some cases this name can also replace another name that you used when sharing content via your Google account. The identity of your Google profile may be displayed to users who know your email address or have other identifying information about you.
Use of the collected information: In addition to the purposes explained above, the information you provide will be used in accordance with the applicable Google privacy policies. Google may publish aggregated statistics about users’ +1 activities or pass them on to users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers or affiliated websites.

Data Protection Provisions for the Use of “clabb”

Your personal data are generally only passed on to third parties with your explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1) sentence 1(a) GDPR.

Accordingly, a transmission of your data to such service providers and cooperation partners takes place for the purpose of fulfilling the contract pursuant to Art. 6(1) sentence 1(b) GDPR. In these cases, we and our partners strictly observe the provisions of the GDPR.

Your data will not be sold, rented, or otherwise made available to third parties.

Transfers of personal data to authorized state institutions and authorities only take place within the framework of legal disclosure obligations or if we are obligated to provide information by a court decision. In such cases, the transfer of your data is required by Art. 6(1) sentence 1(c) GDPR to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject.
