2) Data Collection When Visiting Our Website

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

• The website you visited

• The date and time of access

• The amount of data sent in bytes

• The source/reference from which you accessed the page

• The browser used

• The operating system used

• The IP address used (if necessary, in anonymized form)

Processing is carried out in accordance with Article 6, Paragraph 1, Letter f of the GDPR based on 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

To make visiting our website more attractive and to enable certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Some of the cookies we use will expire at the end of the browser session (so-called session cookies), while other cookies remain on your device and allow us or our partner companies (third-party cookies) to recognize your browser on your next visit (persistent cookies). If cookies are set, they collect and process certain user information on an individual basis, such as browser and location data, as well as IP address values. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which varies depending on the cookie.

Some cookies are used to save settings to simplify the ordering process (e.g., remembering the contents of a virtual shopping cart for a later visit to the website). If cookies are implemented individually by us, they may also process personal data in accordance with Article 6, Paragraph 1, Letter b of the GDPR, either to fulfill a contract or, in accordance with Article 6, Paragraph 1, Letter f of the GDPR, to protect our legitimate interests in the best possible functionality of the website and in a customer-friendly and effective page design.
