In the case of direct or indirect references to external websites ('links') that lie outside my area of responsibility, a liability obligation would only come into force in the event that I am aware of the content and it would be technically possible and reasonable for me to prevent use in the event of illegal content. I hereby expressly declare that at the time the links were created, no illegal content was recognizable on the linked pages. I have no influence whatsoever on the current and future design, content or authorship of the linked pages. I therefore hereby expressly distance myself from all content on all linked and referenced pages that were changed after the link was created. This statement applies to all links and references set within the own Internet offer as well as to external entries and mailing lists. Liability for illegal, incorrect or incomplete content and in particular for damages resulting from the use or non-use of such information lies solely with the provider of the page to which reference is made, not with the person who merely refers to the respective publication via links.

I endeavor to observe the copyrights of the graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts used in all publications, to use graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts created by myself or to use license-free graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts.

If we become aware of any legal infringements, we will remove such links immediately.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data Below we inform you about the legal basis for the processing of personal data: If we have obtained your consent for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR is the legal basis. If the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. If the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject (e.g. statutory retention obligations), the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c) GDPR. If processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. d) GDPR is the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party and your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms do not prevail in this respect, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR is the legal basis.

We do not pass on any data to third parties without your consent. Should this nevertheless be the case, the data will be passed on on the basis of the aforementioned legal bases, e.g. when passing on data to online payment providers to fulfill a contract or due to a court order or due to a legal obligation to hand over the data for the purpose of criminal prosecution, to avert danger or to enforce intellectual property rights. We also use processors (external service providers, e.g. for web hosting of our websites and databases) to process your data. If data is passed on to the processors as part of an agreement on order processing, this is always done in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. We select our processors carefully, monitor them regularly and have been granted the right to issue instructions regarding the data. In addition, the processors must have taken appropriate technical and organizational measures and comply with the data protection regulations according to BDSG n.F. and GDPR

Data transfer to third countries The adoption of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has created a uniform basis for data protection in Europe. Your data is therefore primarily processed by companies to which the GDPR applies. However, if processing is carried out by third-party services outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, these must fulfill the special requirements of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR must be met. This means that the processing takes place on the basis of special guarantees, such as the EU Commission's officially recognized determination of a level of data protection corresponding to that of the EU or compliance with officially recognized special contractual obligations, the so-called 'standard contractual clauses'. In the case of US companies, submission to the so-called 'Privacy Shield', the data protection agreement between the EU and the USA, fulfills these requirements

Deletion of data and storage duration Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies, unless its continued storage is necessary for evidence purposes or is contrary to statutory retention obligations. This includes, for example, commercial law retention obligations for business letters in accordance with Section 257 (1) HGB (6 years) and tax law retention obligations for documents in accordance with Section 147 (1) AO (10 years). If the prescribed retention period expires, your data will be blocked or deleted, unless the storage is still required for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

For security reasons, we store this data in server log files for a storage period of 70 days. After this period has expired, they are automatically deleted unless we need to retain them for evidence purposes in the event of attacks on the server infrastructure or other legal violations.

Objection or revocation against the processing of your data Insofar as the processing is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a), Art. 7 GDPR, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation.
