1. Responsible Authority
The responsible authority in the legal sense for the topic of data is the company named on our website under “Legal”. You can contact the person of contact mentioned there.
2. Purpose of Data Storage
On our website, you can enter personal data via a contact form. When you use the contact form, we collect and store the data you enter in the input mask (e.g. last name, first name, e-mail address).
When you enter into a contract with us as a client, we create a customer account in our system. This account contains the master data you have entered, your order and, if applicable, your billing data (“customer data”). We store and process this data, because otherwise we would not be able to fulfill our contract terms.
Your computer sends us your IP address when you use our websites and depending on the type of use and the settings of your computer, we save small text files on your hard disk (“cookies”). We create these files so that our website works better for you. It functions as a type of short-term memory of your browser.
We also create text files on our system which may contain the following information about you: browser type and version, operating system used, the URL of the website you came from, the name of your computer and the time (“log files”).
The log files cannot be assigned by us to specific people. We do not merge this data with cookies or IP addresses. However, we reserve the right to evaluate this data subsequently in individual cases if we have concrete evidence of illegal use. The log files help us to understand which type of computers our websites must function on, particularly when many (or few) people use our websites. Through this method, the website structure, server and database systems can be adjusted accordingly.
3. Transfer of Data to Third Parties
We do not completely process your data ourselves, but use programs and services from other companies (“tools”). We will change the tools we use from time to time if we consider it appropriate for legal, technical, or economic reasons.
We currently use the following tools for the administration and processing of data (in particular IP addresses, cookies, and log files):
- Google Analytics (traffic monitoring on our website)
- Holded (administration surrounding customer data)
- Google G Suite (server space, contact information, emails)
- Slack (communication within the company)
- Netcup (server space)
- Airtable (project management)
- LinkedIn (social media communication)
If you prohibit your consent from the use of these tools, we may no longer be able to fulfill existing contracts between us or may have to resort to solutions that are less convenient for you.
The data will not be transferred to providers or storage locations in countries outside the European Union.
Here you can change your cookie opt-ins.Cookie Settings
4. Deletion Periods
We will store your data until the order is completed or until the statutory retention periods have expired. These result primarily from § 257 HGB, which regulates the storage of business documents.
5. Disclosure
You have the legal right to request information about the data we have stored at any time. If, despite our efforts to ensure that data is correct and up-to-date, incorrect information about you is stored, we will correct it as soon as possible at your request. If processing is based on your consent, you can revoke this consent at any time in the future.
6. Supervisory Authority
If you feel that we are not fulfilling our informational obligations towards you, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority (e.g. the data protection officer of a federal state in Germany).
7. Voluntary Nature
You are not obliged to transmit your data to us. You can therefore refuse to have your IP address stored. For the completion and execution of contracts between you and us, however, the processing of your data to the extent described above is necessary. If you revoke your consent to data processing, our service to you becomes impossible without you being released from the obligation to carry out our contractual obligations. (You cannot revoke the storage of your customer data in the above-mentioned administrative systems for this reason until the termination of the contractual relationship).
8. Change of Purpose
If we intend to further process your data for a purpose other than the one for which you have given them to us, we will provide you with specific information about this other purpose and the reason for our intention prior to such further processing. You can revoke your consent to further processing at any time.
If you have any questions, you can contact our data protection officer at any time:
