2. Processing of Personal Data and Purposes of the Data Processing During
Your Website Visit
a) During Your Website Visit
You have the choice to access our website without revealing your identity. In this case, the
active browser on your computing device sends nothing but the automatic information about
itself to the server of our website to enable the connection. This includes the browser type
and version and the date and time of access. Included in the transmitted data is also the IP
address of your device. Our server stores this IP address in a log file and deletes it
automatically after fifteen months.
We process the IP address for technical and administrative purposes when we establish a
stable connection between your device and our server. This ensures the security and
functional reliability of our website. In the event an attacker tries to harm our system, the
stored data allow us to trace the illegitimate activity.
The legal foundation for processing the IP address is Article 6 para. 1. lit. f GDPR.
We have legitimate interests in maintaining the security of our website and in providing
trouble-free website services as outlined above.
Processing the IP address of the requesting device in our log file does not allow us to draw
direct conclusions on the identity of the website visitor.
b) Using Contact Forms
We offer you the opportunity to communicate with us via a form on our website. Sending
us this form requires entering the following required information:
• Title
• First name and last name and
• your email address
We need these data to learn who sent us the enquiry and have the means to answer you.
You start the communication when you send us the filled out form. In return, we process
the personal data you provided in the contact form so that we can respond to your enquiry.
Therefore, the data processing is in our legitimate interest according to Article 6 para. 1,
page 1, lit f GDPR.
At the end of our web form-based communication with you, our web application
automatically deletes the no longer needed collected data.
3. Transfer of Personal Data to Third Persons
We transfer your personal data to third parties only under the following circumstances:
• You have consented to the transfer explicitly as prescribed in Article 6 para. 1, page
1, lit. a GDPR

contract as prescribed in Article 6 para. 1, page 1, lit b GDPR
• According to Article 6 para. 1, page 1, lit. c GDPR and according to applicable law,
we are obligated to transfer the data to a specific third party.
The third party/third parties shall use the transferred data for the specified purpose
exclusively.
The transmission/transfer of personal data to a country outside the EU or to an
international organisation is prohibited.
4. YouTube
Based on the agreement according to Article 6 Para. 1, page 1 lit. f GDPR, we use
components (videos) of YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Avenue, 94066 San Bruno, CA (USA)
(in the following referred to as ‘YouTube’), a company of Google Inc., Amphitheatre
Parkway, 94043 Mountain View (USA), (in the following referred to as ‘Google’).
In the process, we use the ‘extended data protection mode’ option provided by YouTube.
Upon requesting an Internet page with embedded video, our website connects to the
YouTube servers and renders the content on the Internet page using your browser.
According to the information provided by YouTube, in the ‘extended data protection mode’,
your data will be transmitted to the US YouTube servers only while you watch the video.
The transmitted data include the Internet page you just viewed and device-specific data
including your IP address. By clicking ‘run’ on the video, you agree to this mode of
transmission.
Should you be logged into your YouTube account at the same time, YouTube will associate
these collected data with your member account. You are able to prevent this by logging out
of your YouTube account.
Google complies with the Data Protection Regulations of ‘US Privacy Shield’ and is
registered with the US Privacy Shield Program of the US Department of Trade.
