When you visit our website, Google receives information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. In addition, the data mentioned in section 2 is transmitted. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged into or whether no user account exists. If you are logged into Google, your data will be directly associated with your account. If you do not wish to have your data associated with your Google profile, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data as user profiles and uses them for advertising, market research, and/or customized website design. Such evaluation is carried out even for users who are not logged in, especially to provide targeted advertising and inform other social network users about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact Google to exercise this right. For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the plugin provider, please refer to the privacy policies of the respective provider.

6. Newsletter

When the company’s newsletter is subscribed to, the data entered in the respective input form is transmitted to the responsible party for processing. Subscribing to our newsletter follows a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means you will receive an email asking you to confirm your subscription after registration. This confirmation is necessary to prevent someone from signing up using a third party’s email address. When subscribing to the newsletter, the IP address of the user, as well as the date and time of registration, is stored. This is to prevent the misuse of services or the email address of the affected person. No data will be transferred to third parties, except when required by law. The data is used solely for the newsletter’s delivery. The newsletter can be canceled at any time by the person concerned. Likewise, the consent to the storage of personal data can be revoked at any time. Each newsletter contains a corresponding link for this purpose.

7. Data Storage Duration

The criteria for determining the storage duration of personal data are the respective legal retention periods. After the period has expired, we routinely delete the corresponding data unless it is still required for contract fulfillment or initiation.

If the storage purpose no longer applies or a legally prescribed storage period expires, personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted according to legal provisions.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

Changes to this privacy policy may occur at any time. Please regularly consult this statement.
