Technically Necessary Cookies

Some of our web pages' functions and services require the calling browser to be identified even after a page change. We use cookies for this purpose. Cookies are text files that are stored by the Internet browser on the user's computer system and transmitted to our websites.

When a user visits a website, a cookie may be stored on the user's operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string of characters that enables a unique identification of the browser when the website is called up again. However, the user data collected by these cookies are not used to create user profiles.

Since cookies are stored on the user's computer, you, as the user, also have full control over the use of cookies. You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time.

Contact Forms and Communication

On individual websites, contact forms that can be used for electronic contact are available. If a user takes advantage of this possibility, the data entered in the input mask as well as the time of establishing contact will be transmitted to us and stored. If you send us a request or an opinion via contact form, e-mail, post, telephone, fax or social media, the information provided will be processed to deal with the request and for possible follow-up questions.

Optional Data Collection and External Services

Optional data collection is based on your consent. The services will be used only if you gave your consent at accessing the website. If you want to revoke your consent with effect for the future, please adjust your browser settings or contact us.

Web Analysis Tools

Some of our websites may use web analysis services. These services use cookies that enable us to analyse the use of the websites. For this purpose, the usage information generated by the cookie is transmitted to our server and stored for usage analysis purposes that serve to optimise our website. Your IP address will be anonymised immediately during this process, so that you as a user remain anonymous to us.

Personal data in log files is usually retained until the necessity no longer exists.
