In addition, we inform you below about the third-party components we use for optimization purposes and to increase the quality of use, insofar as third parties process data in turn on their own responsibility.

II. Rights of users and data subjects

With regard to the data processing described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right:

  • to confirmation as to whether data concerning them is being processed, to information about the processed data, to further information about the data processing, and to copies of the data (cf. also Art. 15 GDPR);
  • to correction or completion of incorrect or incomplete data (cf. also Art. 16 GDPR);

Cookies

a) Session cookies

We use so-called cookies with our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are stored on your device by the internet browser you use. Through these cookies, certain information from you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, is processed to an individual extent.

This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure, as the processing enables, for example, the reproduction of our website in different languages or the offer of a shopping cart function.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit b.) GDPR, insofar as these cookies are processed for data on contract initiation or contract execution. If the processing does not serve contract initiation or contract execution, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. These session cookies are deleted when you close your internet browser.

b) Third-party cookies

If applicable, cookies from partner companies with whom we cooperate for the purpose of advertising, analysis, or the functionalities of our website are also used with our website. The details of this, in particular the purposes and legal bases for the processing of such third-party cookies, can be found in the following information.

c) Possibility of elimination

You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by setting your internet browser. You can also delete cookies that have already been saved at any time. However, the steps and measures required for this depend on the internet browser you specifically use.
