B. DATA PROCESSING
We process data as part of the operation of our website. The processing of data also includes disclosure by way of transfer.
An adequacy decision of the EU Commission, the EU-US Privacy Shield, exists for data transfers to the USA. In this, the Commission has certified that the safeguards for transfers of data to the US based on the EU-US Privacy Shield are equivalent to privacy standards in the EU. To the extent that we transfer data to the USA, we have highlighted the participation of our service providers in the EU-US Privacy Shield.
The individual data concerned, processing purposes, legal bases, recipients and transfers to third countries are listed below:
a) Log file
We log your visit to our websites. This involves processing of the following data: Name of website accessed, date and time of access, the amount of data transferred, the browser type and version, the operating system you are using, the referrer URL (the previously visited website), your IP address and the requesting provider. This is necessary to ensure the security of the website. We process the data accordingly on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The log file is deleted after seven days, unless it is needed to clarify or prove specific legal violations that have become known within the retention period.

All data to be processed in connection with the operation of this website is stored as part of the hosting activities. This is necessary to enable the operation of the website. We process the data accordingly on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

The legal basis for data processing is § 26 BDSG (new) (Federal Data Protection Act) as well as Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
The application data will be deleted after 2 months after the end of the application process, but no later than 6 months after receipt of the application. If an employment relationship is established, the data will be transferred to the personnel file. The legal basis for this is also Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
e) Newsletter
In order to provide you with regular information about our company and our offers, we offer to send you a newsletter. When you register for the newsletter, we process the data you enter (email address and other voluntary information).

The registration for the newsletter is carried out using what is known as the double opt-in procedure. To prevent misuse, we will send you an email after your registration asking you to confirm your registration. In order to be able to prove the registration process in accordance with legal requirements, your registration is logged.

h) Website analytics and marketing
To enable the use of certain functions, we use “cookies”. These are short data packets that are stored on your end device and exchanged with other providers. Some of the cookies we use are deleted immediately after you close your browser (“session cookies”). Other cookies remain on your end device and enable your browser to be recognised the next time you visit (“persistent cookies”).
You can delete all cookies stored on your end device and adjust common browser settings to prevent cookies from being stored.
In this case, you may have to reapply some settings again each time you visit this website and accept that some functions may be impaired.
We use cookies in connection with the following functionalities:
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google uses certain cookies for this purpose. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. We use the information stored to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities for the website operators and to provide other services associated with use of the website. We process the data obtained in this way on the basis of our overriding interest in the best possible marketing of our online offer in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google.
Please note that this website uses Google Analytics with the extension “anonymizeIp()”. This shortens IP addresses before they are transmitted to a server in the USA. Any direct personal reference in connection with the stored data is therefore generally excluded. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a server in the USA and shortened there.
You can object to the collection of data at any time with future effect by using the Google Analytics browser deactivation add-on at
