Scope

This privacy policy is intended to inform the users of this website in accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act and the Telemedia Act about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator [insert your contact details].

The website operator takes your data protection very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory provisions.

Please bear in mind that data transmission on the Internet can always be subject to security vulnerabilities. A full protection against access by third parties is not feasible.


Access data

The website operator or page provider collects data about accesses to the page and stores them as "server log files". The following data is logged in this way:

  • Visited website

  • Amount of data sent in bytes
  • Source/reference from which you came to the page
  • Browser used

The data collected is only used for statistical analysis and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to check the server log files retrospectively if there are concrete indications of illegal use.


Cookies

This website uses cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your terminal device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website.

Common browsers offer the setting option to not allow cookies. Note: It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if you make the appropriate settings.


Handling of personal data

The website operator collects, uses and discloses your personal data only if this is permitted by law or if you consent to the collection of such data.

Personal data includes all information that can be used to identify you personally and that can be traced back to you - for example, your name, e-mail address and telephone number.

Dealing with comments and contributions

If you leave a contribution or comment on this website, your IP address will be stored. This is for the security of the website operator: If your text violates the law, he would like to be able to trace your identity.

Google Analytics

This website uses the service "Google Analytics", which is offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to analyze website usage by users. The service uses "cookies" - text files that are stored on your terminal device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymization is used on this website. The IP address of the user is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This shortening eliminates the personal reference of your IP address. As part of the agreement on the order data agreement, which the website operators have concluded with Google Inc., the latter uses the collected information to create an evaluation of website use and website activity and provides services associated with internet use.

You have the option of preventing the cookie from being stored on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. It is not guaranteed that you can access all features of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.

Furthermore, you can use a browser plug-in to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to and used by Google Inc. The following link will take you to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en 

Alternatively, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website by clicking on this link (IMPORTANT! Insert opt-out link). By clicking on the above link, you will download an "opt-out cookie". Your browser must therefore generally allow the storage of cookies for this purpose. If you delete your cookies regularly, you will need to click on the link again each time you visit this website.
