When using our website for information purposes, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we only collect data that your browser transmits to our server (so-called "server log files"). When you call up our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display the website to you:

• Date and time at the time of access
  
• Amount of data sent in bytes

Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data will not be passed on or used in any other way. However, we reserve the right to subsequently check the server log files if there are concrete indications of illegal use.

3. Cookies

In order to make visiting our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages. These are small text files that are stored on your end device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted after the end of the browser session, i.e. after closing your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your end device and enable us or our partner companies (cookies from third parties) to recognize your browser during your next visit (persistent cookies). If cookies are set, they collect and process certain user information such as browser and location data as well as IP address values to an individual extent. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie. In some cases, cookies are used to simplify the ordering process by saving settings (e.g. remembering the contents of a virtual shopping basket for a later visit to the website). If personal data is also processed by individual cookies implemented by us, the processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO either to implement the contract or in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO to safeguard our legitimate interests in the best possible functionality of the website and a customer-friendly and effective design of the page visit.

We may cooperate with advertising partners who help us to make our website more interesting for you. For this purpose, cookies from partner companies are also stored on your hard drive (cookies from third parties) when you visit our website. Please note that you can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and can decide individually whether to accept them or whether to accept them in certain cases or generally. Each browser differs in the way it manages the cookie settings. This is described in the help menu of each browser, which explains how you can change your cookie settings. These can be found for each browser under the following links: Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari or Opera.

Please note that if cookies are not accepted, the functionality of our website may be restricted.

4. establishing contact

Within the scope of contacting us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail), personal data is collected. Which data is collected in the case of a contact form, is apparent from the respective contact form. These data are stored and used exclusively for the purpose of answering your request or for establishing contact and the associated technical administration. The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If the purpose of your contact is to conclude a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO. Your data will be deleted after final processing of your enquiry; this is the case if it can be inferred from the circumstances that the facts in question have been conclusively clarified and insofar as there are no legal obligations to retain data to the contrary.

5. data processing at the opening of a customer account and for the execution of the contract

Pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, personal data will continue to be collected and processed if you provide it to us for the execution of a contract or when opening a customer account. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. A deletion of your customer account is possible at any time and can be done by sending a message to the above address of the responsible person. We store and use the data provided by you for contract processing. After complete completion of the contract or deletion of your customer account, your data will be blocked with regard to tax and commercial retention periods and deleted after these periods, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or a legally permitted further use of data from our side was reserved, about which we inform you below accordingly.

6. web analysis service AWStats

To be able to evaluate our website statistically, we use the program AWStats. The program is a free web analysis software. It is used to evaluate log files that web servers create on the basis of visitor requests. The program does not use any cookie files for the evaluation. The statistical analysis takes place via the log files, which also contain IP addresses. As a rule, these data cannot be assigned to specific persons. This data is not merged with other data sources, and the data is deleted after statistical evaluation. In contrast to other statistical programs, AWStats does not transmit any data to an external server. The program is installed on your own server. For example, the transfer of data abroad is avoided, as our servers are located in Switzerland (CH).

7. tools and miscellaneous

Google Maps

On our website we use Google Maps (API) from Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). Google Maps is a web service that displays interactive (land) maps to visually represent geographic information. Using this service will show you our location and make it easier for you to get there. Already when you call up the subpages in which the Google Maps map is integrated, information about your use of our website (e.g. your IP address) is transferred to Google's servers in the USA and stored there. This takes place regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in to or whether there is no user account. If you are logged in at Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want your profile to be associated with Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates them. In particular, such evaluation is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit.f DSGVO on the basis of Google's legitimate interests in the display of personalised advertising, market research and/or the design of its website to meet needs. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact Google to exercise this right. Google LLC, headquartered in the USA, is certified for the us-European data protection agreement "Privacy Shield", which guarantees compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU. If you do not agree with the future transmission of your data to Google within the framework of the use of Google Maps, you also have the option of completely deactivating the Google Maps web service by deactivating the JavaScript application in your browser. Google Maps and thus also the map display on this website can then not be used.

and the additional Google Maps Terms of Use here. Detailed information on data protection in connection with the use of Google Maps can be found on the Google website or here.

YouTube

On some of our pages we embed Youtube videos. Operator of the corresponding plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plugin, a connection to Youtube servers is established. This will tell Youtube which pages you are visiting. If you are logged in to your Youtube account, Youtube can personally assign your surfing behavior to you. You can prevent this by logging out of your Youtube account beforehand. If a Youtube video is started, the provider uses cookies which collect information about the user behaviour. If you have deactivated the saving of cookies for the Google Ad program, you will not have to reckon with such cookies when watching Youtube videos. However, Youtube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you wish to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in your browser. You can find further information on data protection at "Youtube" in Google's Data protection declaration.
