Data protection

Introduction and overview

We have written this data protection declaration (version 17.09.2021-311830984) in order to explain to you, in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and applicable national laws, which personal data we as the controller - and the processors commissioned by us ( e.g. provider) - process, will process in the future and what legal options you have. The terms used are to be understood as gender neutral.
In short: We provide you with comprehensive information about the data that we process about you.

Data protection declarations usually sound very technical and use legal terminology. However, this data protection declaration is intended to describe the most important things to you as simply and transparently as possible. As far as transparency is beneficial, technical terms are explained in a reader-friendly manner, links to further information are provided and graphics are provided brought into use. We are thus informing in clear and simple language that we only process personal data in the context of our business activities if there is a corresponding legal basis. This is certainly not possible if you make as brief, unclear, and legal-technical statements as possible, as they are often standard on the Internet when it comes to data protection. I hope you find the following explanations interesting and informative and maybe there is one or the other piece of information that you were not familiar with.
If you still have questions, we would like to ask you to contact the responsible body named below or in the imprint, to follow the links provided and to look at further information on third-party sites. You can of course also find our contact details in the imprint.

The person responsible within the meaning of data protection laws, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is:
