1.1 Scope of Personal Data Processing
We only process personal data of our users insofar as necessary for providing a functional website and our content and services. We only process personal data of our users with their consent. Exceptions only apply where prior consent cannot be obtained for objective reasons and data processing is permitted by law.
1.2 Legal Basis for Personal Data Processing
If we obtain the data subject’s consent to processing his or her personal data, Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will serve as the legal basis for processing personal data.
When processing personal data necessary for performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR will serve as the legal basis. This also applies to processing necessary for steps prior to entering into a contract.
Where processing personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject, Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR will serve as the legal basis.
If processing personal data is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person, Article 6(1)(d) of the GDPR will serve as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests of ours or of a third party and these interests are not overridden by the interests, fundamental rights or freedoms of the data subject, Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR will serve as the legal basis for processing.
1.3 Data Erasure and Storage Period
The data subject’s personal data will be erased or blocked when the purpose for its storage no longer applies. Furthermore, personal data may be stored if required by European or national legislature in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Personal data will also be blocked or erased if a storage period required by one of the specified provisions expires, unless the data must continue to be stored for contract conclusion or performance.

8 | ANALYSIS TOOLS
The tracking measures used by us and specified hereafter are performed on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. We use these tracking measures to ensure the need-based design and continuous optimization of our website. We also use these tracking measures to document and analyze use of our website statistically to optimize our offer for you. These interests are considered legitimate within the meaning of the above-stated provision.
Please see the respective tracking tools for their data processing purposes and data categories.
8.1 Google Analytics
For the need-based design and continuous optimization of our website, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (https://about.google/intl/ALL_us/) (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter “Google”). Pseudonymized usage profiles are created and cookies (see Section 4) are used thereby. The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website, e.g.,
- Time and date of access
- Browser used
- Operating system and device used
- Country code from which our website is accessed
- Average period of time spent on our website
- Referrer URL (last-visited page)
- Time of server request
will be transferred to a Google server in the US and stored there. This information is used to assess use of our website, prepare website activity reports and perform other services related to use of our website and the Internet for market research and need-based design of our website. This information may also be transferred to third parties if required by law or if processed by the third parties on our behalf. In no case will your IP address be merged with other Google data. IP addresses are anonymized to prevent identification (IP masking).
You may disable cookies through your browser settings; however, this may prevent you from fully using all functions of our website.
Furthermore, you may prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie on your use of our website (incl. your IP address) and Google from processing this data by downloading and installing a browser add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).
As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially on mobile device browsers, you may prevent Google Analytics from collecting data by clicking on this link. This will activate an opt-out cookie which will prevent future collection of your data when visiting our website. However, this opt-out cookie will only apply to this browser and this website and will be stored on your device. If you delete cookies from your browser, you must activate this opt-out cookie again.
For further information about data protection in relation to Google Analytics, please see Google Analytics Help (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en).
8.2 Google Conversion Tracking
To document and analyze use of our website statistically to optimize our offer for you, we use Google’s conversion tracking. If you reached our website via a Google ad, Google Adwords will place a cookie (see Section 4) on your computer.
These cookies will expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If a user visits certain pages of an Adwords customer’s website before the cookie expires, Google and the customer may see that the user clicked on an ad and was forwarded to this page.
Every Adwords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies therefore cannot be tracked across Adwords customers’ websites. The information obtained by the conversion cookie is used to prepare conversion statistics for Adwords customers who choose conversion tracking. Such Adwords customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were forwarded to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, these customers do not receive information whereby users can be personally identified.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you may reject the necessary cookie—e.g., by disabling all cookies through your browser settings. You may also disable conversion tracking cookies by configuring your browser to block cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com.” Further information about Google’s privacy policy for conversion tracking is provided here (https://services.google.com/sitestats/en.html).
