General information on data processingWe process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website as well as our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users regularly takes place only with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law. Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures. Insofar as processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis. If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not override the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
Provision of the website and creation of log files
Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling computer. The following data is collected: Information about the browser type and version used, the user's operating system, the user's internet service provider, the user's IP address, date and time of access, websites accessed by the user's system via our website. The data is also stored in the log files of our system. Storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimize the website technically and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data also only takes place for this purpose. The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session. The legal basis for the storage of the data is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose of its collection. In the case of collecting data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation. The legal basis is our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR in the targeted and effective answering of incoming inquiries. If the inquiry relates to the initiation or conclusion of a contract, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR is the legal basis for processing. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose of its collection. For the personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended.

Data protection when using social media
Since we are represented with our content on platforms, we would like to inform you here about data processing in connection with platforms, as far as we are aware of this and can influence it. When we open a profile or a channel on a platform, the operator sets cookies as soon as a user visits the profiles or channels. The platform operators collect personal data from users using cookies or other technologies in order to evaluate user behavior. This applies in particular if you are already registered on these platforms. More information on this can be found in the respective privacy policies of the platforms. We only receive evaluations of the use of our content from the platform operators in anonymized form. This anonymized data is used to analyze user behavior for statistical purposes so that we can better align our offers with the needs and interests of the target group. The processing of anonymized data is based on a legal basis according to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.We can use the filters provided by the platform operators to select the data categories according to which the operators provide anonymized statistics. The operators provide us with the following criteria or categories for evaluating the activities of our content in anonymized form, provided the corresponding information is provided by the user or collected by the operator. These can be: age range, gender, location (state and country), language, mobile or desktop page view, interactions within posts, viewing time. We do not know which personal data the platform operators collect in total and for what other purposes the operators process user data. We have no influence on the privacy policy of a platform or the collection, evaluation, and use of user data. Since we do not process personal user data ourselves but only receive anonymized statistical data, it is not possible for us to establish a personal reference and provide corresponding data information. We recommend that you use the various privacy and security settings on the respective platform and check them regularly.Which data is collected during use is explained by the respective platform operator in its data policy: LinkedIn:
