Privacy

We take the matter of protecting the personal data of our users very seriously and strictly adhere to the relevant provisions of data protection legislation. As a matter of principle, your data is not forwarded to third parties. Exceptions to this rule shall apply solely in the case of statutory or legal requirements, or when you have specifically approved such forwarding of data, or have expressed a wish for this to be done. This statement provides you with an overview of the measure designed to assure such protection, together with an outline of the type of data collected and the purposes for which this is used.

I. Automatic data processing on this internet page
When you access internet pages, the information transferred to us by your browser is automatically stored in our “server log files”. This includes:

· Browsertype/ -version
· Operating system used
· Referrer URL (the page last visited)
· Host name of the computer accessing the site (IP address)
· Time of the server enquiry

The technology used is such that we are unable to assign such data to specific persons. No attempt is made to link this data to other data sources (e.g. any registration data that may exist), and data is, following a statistical evaluation, deleted and not retained as an individual data record set.

II. Service Providers
We may employ third-party companies and individuals due to the following reasons:

· To facilitate our Service
· To provide the Service on our behalf;
· To perform Service-related services; or
· To assist us in analyzing how our Service is used.

We want to inform our Service users that these third parties have access to your Personal Information. The reason is to perform the tasks assigned to them on our behalf. However, they are obligated not to disclose or use the information for any other purpose.

III. Services that require registration/subscription – newsletter, etc.
If you would like to utilize the offers and services offered on the website (individualized or subject to charge), we may require further information from you to provide these services and for billing purposes. This includes, in particular, your name, your (valid) e-mail address and other information (address, telephone number, etc.). This information allows us to check, for example, that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided or that the owner agrees to receive the relevant services, and makes it possible for us to provide the services requested by you and to invoice you properly. The entry of a valid e-mail address is required so that we can prevent misuse of subscription services, for example for newsletters. To ensure this, we apply the double opt-in procedure. This means that after you enter your e-mail address on our webpages, you will receive a confirmation e-mail for your subscription and then be required to verify your e-mail address by clicking on a verification link. Data used in this context is defined as ‘personal data’, i.e. data that can make it possible to establish your identity. It is generally possible for you, however, to use our access-free Internet offering without having to disclose your full identity or even part of it. While subscribing to a service, however, you may also voluntarily provide us with other information beyond what is required to render the service (e.g. industry, professional group, age, etc.), e.g. in appropriate form fields. We use this data for the development of demand-driven offers, for product information related to marketing activities and also for customer service purposes. As a general principle, this information is not passed on to third parties.

IV. Links to third party websites
This privacy policy does not address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, information or other practices of any third parties, including any third party operating any website to which this website contains a link. The inclusion of a link on the website does not imply endorsement of the linked website by us.

Additionally, we may provide you with access to third-party functionality that permits you to post content to your social media account(s). Please note that any information that you provide through use of this functionality is governed by the applicable third party’s privacy policy, and not by this privacy policy, and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any personal data to these websites.
