Data protection

Collecting and processing personal data

We are committed to protecting the privacy of everyone using our services and to the confidential handling of personal data. This is based on the respective applicable legal provisions such as the German Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the Information and Communication Services Act (IuKDG).

Use of personal data

We use your data exclusively for the proper processing of orders. This means that only the information and data that are absolutely essential for the settlement of possible reimbursement claims are stored and processed.

Transfer of information

Transfer of information
We do not transfer your personal data to third parties. You only receive e-mails from us. We do not publish any personal information of users, except with express consent or in special, exceptional cases. An example of such an exceptional case is when there is reason to believe that a user of this website is violating our rights and/or property, and/or the rights/property of other users. This applies regardless of whether the violation is intentional or unintentional.

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses what are known as “cookies” – text files stored on your computer – for the purpose of analysing the way you use the website. The information generated by the cookies regarding your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA where it is stored. If IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address within member states of the European Union or other states in the European Economic Area is first shortened by Google. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. By order of the website operator, Google will use this information in order to analyse your use of the website, compile reports on website activities for the website operator and provide additional services related to the use of the website and the internet. The IP address transferred by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not combined with other data by Google. You can prevent the storage of cookies by changing your browser settings accordingly. However, please note that you may not be able to fully utilise all functions of this website in that case. Furthermore, you can prevent the capture of data (including your IP address) generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website by Google as well as the processing of these data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de). You may object to the collection of data by Google Analytics by clicking the following link. This sets an opt-out cookie that prevents the collection of your data during future visits to this website: Deactivate Google Analytics. For further information about usage policies and data protection, visit https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html.

Please note that Google Analytics on this website was extended with the code “anonymizeIp” in order to ensure the anonymized capture of IP addresses (known as IP masking).

Cookies

We use cookies on parts of this website. Cookies are small text files that are stored on the user’s computer. Most of the cookies used by this website are of the type called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after the end of the visit to this website. Naturally, the online offering of this website can also be viewed without cookies. To prevent the storage of cookies, “do not accept cookies” must be selected in the browser settings. If the browser does not accept cookies, the scope of functionality offered by the online offering on this website may be restricted.

Facebook Like Button

Our website uses what are known as social plugins (“plugins”) of the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). The plugins are identified by the Facebook logo (white “f” on a blue tile or a “thumbs up” icon), or by the addendum “Facebook Social Plugin”.

When you call up a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted from Facebook directly to your browser, where it is integrated into the website. We therefore have no influence on the scope of the data collected by Facebook with the help of the plugins, and consequently inform you according to our state of knowledge:

Due to the integration of the plugins, Facebook receives the information that you have called up the corresponding page of our website. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit directly to your Facebook account. When you interact with the plugins, e.g. by clicking the “Like” button or submitting a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted by your browser directly to Facebook, where it is stored. If you are not a Facebook member, Facebook may nevertheless determine and store your IP address.

With regard to the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your rights in this regard and setting options to protect your privacy, please consult the Facebook data privacy statement: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/

If you are a Facebook member and do not want Facebook to collect data about you through this online offering and link it to your profile data stored by Facebook, you have to log off Facebook and delete your cookies before using our online offering.

You can also block Facebook social plugins with add-ons for your browser.

These cookies do not provide any data to third parties.

These cookies are only set after consent.
