You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to exercise this right. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we will generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
If your personal data has been/is being processed unlawfully, you can request that the processing of your data be restricted instead of deleted.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the exercise, defense, or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its deletion.
If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

Our websites use so-called “cookies.” Cookies are small data packets and do not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.

Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies have various functions. Numerous cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies may be used to evaluate user behavior or for advertising purposes.

Cookies that are necessary for the electronic communication process, for the provision of certain functions you have requested (e.g., for the shopping cart function) or for the optimization of the website (e.g., cookies for measuring the web audience) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified.

Newsletter data

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require your email address and information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data will not be collected or will only be collected on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

The data entered in the newsletter registration form will be processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).

Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your email address will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist, if necessary, to prevent future mailings.

This serves both your interests and our interests in complying with the legal requirements for sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You may object to the storage of your data if your interests outweigh our legitimate interests.

6. Plugins and Tools

YouTube with enhanced privacy settings

This website incorporates videos from YouTube. The website operator is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

When you visit one of these websites that has YouTube embedded, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This tells YouTube's server which of our pages you have visited.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, videos played in extended data protection mode are not used to personalize your browsing experience on YouTube. Ads played in extended data protection mode are also not personalized. No cookies are set in enhanced privacy mode. Instead, however, so-called local storage elements are stored in the user's browser, which, similar to cookies, contain personal data and can be used for recognition purposes. Details on enhanced privacy mode can be found here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780.

If applicable, further data processing operations may be triggered after a YouTube video has been activated, over which we have no influence.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offerings. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG.
