Collecting general information
Information of a general nature will be collected automatically when you visit our website. This information, which is stored in server log files, includes the type of web browser and the operating system you are using when you access this website, the domain name of your internet service provider, etc. No personal information is collected. Gathering this general information is necessary in order that website content can be provided to you correctly and is an inevitable consequence of data transmission via the internet. Anonymized information of this type will be analysed by us statistically so that we can optimize our website and the underlying technology.

Cookies
Like many other websites we make use of ‘cookies’. Cookies are small text files that a website server can place on your computer’s hard drive. By using cookies we automatically collect certain pieces of information about your computer and your internet connection, such as your IP address and which browser and operating system you are using.
Cookies cannot be used to run programs or to download viruses onto a computer. By using the information contained in these cookies, we can make it easier for you to navigate our website and to view the content correctly.
We will never disclose the data we collect to third parties or associate this data with a user’s personal data unless the user has given us their explicit consent.
You can, of course, visit our website without allowing cookies to be placed on your computer. Internet browsers are typically configured to accept cookies. You can deactivate or block cookies at any time by changing your browser settings. To learn how to change these settings, please use the help menu in your internet browser. If you choose to block cookies, you may not be able to use certain features of our website.
Erasure of personal data, restricting the processing of personal data
We observe the principles of data avoidance and data economy. That means that we retain personal data on our website only for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes set out here, or to comply with the various data retention periods provided by law. Once the purpose for which the personal data was retained has ceased to apply, or the retention period has expired, the relevant data will be erased or its future processing will be restricted in accordance with legal requirements.
Use of script libraries (Google Fonts)
On this website we use script libraries and font libraries such as Google Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) so that our content is graphically appealing and it displays correctly in all browsers. Google Fonts are stored in your browser’s cache memory to avoid multiple reloads. If your browser does not support Google Fonts or prevents them being accessed, the website content will be displayed in a standard font.
Accessing a script or font library will automatically initiate a connection to the library provider. Library providers can, in theory, also store data. However, it is not certain whether they do and, if so, for what purpose.
Google’s privacy policy can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Use of Adobe Typekit
We use Adobe Typekit for the visual design of our website. Typekit is a service provided by Adobe Systems Software Ireland Ltd. which gives us access to a font library. To incorporate the fonts we use, your browser must connect to an Adobe server in the United States and download the font required for our website. This will tell Adobe that your IP address has been used to access our website. For more information about Adobe Typekit, please refer to Adobe’s privacy policy, which is available at: www.adobe.com/de/privacy/typekit.html
Your rights regarding personal data: information, correction, restriction of processing, erasure and objection
You have the right to receive information at any time about your personal data stored by us. You also have the right to rectify any incorrect personal information that we hold about you, to restrict processing of your personal data, or to have your personal data erased provided that the storage of such data for business purposes is not legally required. Please contact our Data Protection Officer for further details. The relevant contact information is provided at the bottom this page.
To enable processing of personal data to be restricted at any time, this data has to be stored in a holding file for control purposes. You may request the erasure of your personal data provided that the data is not subject to legal archiving obligations. If such an obligation exists, we will restrict the processing of your personal data on request.
You may amend or withdraw your consent with future effect by notifying us appropriately.

Changes to our privacy notice
We reserve the right to amend this privacy notice periodically in order to ensure it complies with current legal requirements or to accommodate changes in the services we provide, e.g. the introduction of new services. The new privacy notice will then apply when you revisit this website.
