If the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not prevail over the first interest stated, then Article 6 paragraph 1 letter f GDPR shall serve as the legal basis for processing. The legitimate interest of our company is in the conduct of our business activities as well as in the analysis, optimisation and maintenance of the security of our online offer.

You can also configure your browser settings in accordance with your wishes and in overall terms, e.g. refuse acceptance of third-party cookies or all cookies, or delete cookies that have already been stored.

VIII. PASSING ON OF DATA TO THIRD PARTIES

We only pass on data to third parties if this is necessary to fulfil the contract and/or we are statutorily obliged to do so in an individual case.

In some cases we make use of external service providers in accordance with our legitimate interests with regard to analysis, optimisation and economical operation of the online content. This always requires that the third-party providers of this content access the IP address of the users, due to the fact they could not send the content to their browsers without the IP address. The IP address is thus necessary for the presentation of this content. Third party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also called "web beacons") for statistical or marketing purposes. Using “Pixel Tags” information such as user traffic can be evaluated on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on the user's device and may include, among other things, technical information similar to the logfiles. We have listed our service providers below.

If your data is to be used for other purposes, we will inform you beforehand and use the data only if you have explicitly declared your consent to this.
1. Google

We use services provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, ("Google") in accordance with our legitimate interests in the analysis, optimisation, and economic operation of our website.

(https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).

a. Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analyzing service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, i.e. text files stored on your end device, which allow an analysis of your website`s use. The information generated by the cookie on your use of the app (including IP address) will be passed on to and stored on a Google server in the US.

We explicitly point out that this website uses Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizeIp()” and, therefore, IP addresses by Google in member states within the European Union or in contracting parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area will be abbreviated before the transfer to prevent direct personal reference. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the US and abbreviated there.
Google will use this information, by order of the provider, to analyze your use of the website, to compile reports on the website’s activities for the website providers and to provide further services associated with the use of the website and the internet use. Google may pass on this information to third parties if required by law or in case third parties process these data on behalf of Google. Google will not associate your IP address with other data by Google.
You can avoid the installation of cookies by appropriately adjusting your browser software; we would like to make you aware of the fact that in this case it is possible that you will not be able to use all the functions of this website.
The purpose and scope of the data collection, the further processing and use of data by Google as well as your rights and configuration options to protect your privacy can be taken from the privacy statements by Google on http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/?hl=de and, in particular, for Google Analytics on https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/?hl=de and on https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.
By using the website, you agree with the processing of the data collected on you by Google in the before-mentioned manner and purpose.

b. Google -  Youtube
We use the provider YouTube, a service provided by Google, for the integration of videos.
These videos are stored on www.youtube.com and are directly playable from our website. YouTube uses cookies for data collection and statistical data analysis. YouTube uses cookies, among other things to record reliable video statistics, prevent fraud, and improve usability. The information produced by the cookie concerning your use of this website (including your IP address) will also be transmitted to Youtube servers in the United States and stored there.  Your IP address cannot be assigned unless you have logged in or are permanently logged in to YouTube or another Google service before the page view. If you want to prevent such transmission of data you must log out from your Youtube account and your other Google accounts.
Through the YouTube cookies we receive statistical values to retrieve individual videos embedded in the website without reference to the respective user.
YouTube's embedded videos are used within the scope of permitted use by YouTube, which all users must accept. If you detect copyright infringement, please report it directly to YouTube. We use embedded YouTube videos in the extended privacy mode. This means that YouTube does not store cookies for a user who is viewing a website with an embedded YouTube video player, but does not click on the video to start playback. If you click on the YouTube video player, YouTube may be able to save cookies on the user's computer. We draw your attention to the fact that we as the provider of the website do not receive any notification of the content of the transmitted data as well as its use by Youtube.

https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780?hl= de.


c. Google reCaptacha
In order to protect input forms on our site, we use the “reCAPTCHA” service of Google. By means of this service it can be distinguished whether the corresponding input is of human origin or is created improperly by automated machine processing.

To our knowledge, the referrer URL, the IP address, the behaviour of the website visitors, information about the operating system, browser and length of stay, cookies, display instructions and scripts, user input behaviour and mouse movements in the “reCAPTCHA” checkbox are conveyed to “Google.”

Google uses the information obtained, among other things, to digitize books and other printed matter as well as to optimize services such as Google Street View and Google Maps (e.g. house number and street name recognition).
The IP address provided as part of “reCAPTCHA” is not merged with other data from Google unless you are logged into your Google Account at the time the "reCAPTCHA" plug-in is used. If you want to prevent this transmission and storage of data by “Google” about you and your behaviour on our website, you must log out of “Google” before you visit our site or before using the reCAPTCHA plug-in.

The use of the “reCAPTCHA” service is according to the Google Terms of Use:
https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
     
3. Vimeo
We use Vimeo components on our website. Vimeo is a service of Vimeo LCC, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA. Whenever you visit our website, which is equipped with such a component, this component causes the browser you are using to download a corresponding display of the Vimeo component. When you visit our site and are at the same time logged into Vimeo, Vimeo recognizes by means of the information collected by the component, which specific page you are visiting and assigns this information to your personal account at Vimeo. If, for example, you click on the “Play” button or make comments, this information will be conveyed to your personal user account at Vimeo and stored there. In addition, the information that you have visited our site will be passed on to Vimeo. This is done regardless of whether you click on the component/comment or not.

If you want to prevent this transmission and storage of data by Vimeo about you and your behaviour on our website, you must log out of Vimeo before you visit our site. Vimeo’s Privacy Policy provides more detailed information concerning this, in particular regarding the collection and use of data by Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/privacy
