Data protection and liability information

Disclaimer

This disclaimer is to be regarded as part of the internet publication which you were referred from. If sections or individual terms of this statement are not legal or correct, the content or validity of the other parts remain uninfluenced by this fact.

Liability for contents of this website

The contents of my pages were created with the greatest care. However, I cannot assume any liability for the correctness, completeness and topicality of the contents. As a service provider I am responsible for my own contents on these pages according to the general laws. However, I am not obliged to monitor transmitted or stored information from third parties or to investigate circumstances that indicate illegal activity. Obligations to remove or block the use of information according to the general laws remain unaffected. However, liability in this respect is only possible from the time of knowledge of a concrete infringement. If I become aware of any such violations, I will immediately remove these contents.

Liability for links to third party websites

My offer contains links to external websites. I have no influence on the content of these external websites. Therefore I can not take any responsibility for these external contents. For the contents of the linked pages is always the respective provider or operator of the sites responsible. The linked pages were checked for possible legal violations at the time of linking. Illegal contents were not found at the time of linking. However, a permanent control of the contents of the linked pages is not reasonable without concrete evidence of a violation of the law. If I become aware of any infringements, I will remove such links immediately.

Copyright

I, as the operator of this website, am always endeavoured to respect the copyrights of others or to use my own or licence-free works. The contents and works on this website created by the site operators are subject to copyright. Contributions of third parties are marked as such. The reproduction, editing, distribution and any kind of use outside the limits of copyright law require the written consent of the respective author or creator. Downloads and copies of this website are only permitted for private, non-commercial or public use.

Privacy policy

The protection of your personal data is a special concern of mine. I therefore process your data exclusively on the basis of the legal provisions (DSGVO, TKG 2003). In this data protection information I inform you about the most important aspects of data processing within the framework of my website. In order to fully inform you about the use of personal data, I ask you to take note of the following data protection information.

Personal data

Personal data that you submit electronically on this website, such as your name, e-mail address, postal address or other personal information, will only be used by me for the purpose stated in each case, will be stored securely and will not be passed on to third parties. The provider collects information each time you use this website, such as IP address of the visitor, the page from which you visited our site, name of the page called up, exact time of the call as well as the amount of data transferred. This data is only used for statistical purposes and does not allow you to be identified as a user.

SSL Encryption

This site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL encryption is activated, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

Cookies

Cookies are used on certain pages of our website without us being able to point this out to you. Cookies are small files that are temporarily stored on your hard drive to analyze the use of the offer and to enable the recognition of the user. This facilitates navigation and enables a high degree of user-friendliness of a website. Cookies help us to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of our website, as well as to make our offers comfortable and efficient for you.
There are three categories of cookies: 1. absolutely necessary cookies to ensure basic website functions, 2. functional cookies to ensure the performance of the website and 3. targeted cookies to improve the user experience. On the one hand, we use session cookies, which are only temporarily stored for the duration of your use of our website, and on the other hand, permanent cookies to record information about visitors who repeatedly access our website. The purpose of using these cookies is to provide an optimal user experience, as well as to recognize visitors and, in the case of repeated use, to present the most attractive website and interesting content. The content of a permanent cookie is limited to an identification number. Name, IP address etc. are not stored. An individual profile of your usage behaviour will not be created.
It is also possible to use our website without cookies. Please note, however, that in this case you must reckon with a restricted display of the page and with a restricted user guidance. You can delete created cookies from the hard disk of your PC at any time and/or deactivate the storage of cookies in your web browser, restrict them to certain websites or set it to notify you as soon as a cookie is sent. The procedure for doing this varies from browser to browser - please refer to your browser instructions (under "Help" in the browser menu).

Newsletter

You have the possibility to subscribe to our newsletter via our website. To do so, we need your e-mail address and your declaration that you agree to receive the newsletter. Once you have subscribed to the newsletter, we will send you a confirmation e-mail with a link to confirm your subscription. You can cancel your subscription to the newsletter independently at any time. To cancel, simply click on the "Unsubscribe Newsletter" link. You will find this link at the end of each newsletter sent. We will then immediately delete your data in connection with the newsletter dispatch. This revocation does not affect the legality of the processing that took place on the basis of the agreement until the revocation.

Use of Google Maps

I use the component "Google Maps" of the company Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter "Google", on my site. Each time the "Google Maps" component is called up, Google sets a cookie in order to process user settings and data when displaying the page on which the "Google Maps" component is integrated. This cookie is usually not deleted when the browser is closed, but expires after a certain time, unless you delete it manually beforehand. If you do not agree with this processing of your data, there is the possibility to deactivate the service of "Google Maps" and thus prevent the transmission of data to Google. To do so, you must deactivate the Java-Script function in your browser. We would like to point out, however, that in this case you will not be able to use "Google Maps", or only to a limited extent.
The use of "Google Maps" and the information obtained via "Google Maps" is subject to the Google Terms of Use and the additional terms and conditions for "Google Maps" https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/help/terms_maps.html.

ReCaptcha

For the protection of your requests via internet form I use the service "ReCaptcha" from Google Inc. (see above). The query serves to differentiate whether the input is made by a human being or abusively by automated, machine processing. The query includes sending the IP address and any other data required by Google for the ReCaptcha service to Google. For this purpose your input will be transmitted to Google and used there. Your IP address will, however, be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of ReCaptcha is not combined with other data from Google. For these data the deviating data protection regulations of the enterprise Google apply. You can find further information on Google's privacy policy at: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy.

Right of access to information

You have the right at any time to information about the data stored concerning your person, its origin and recipient as well as the purpose of storage.
