1. YOUR INFORMATIONAL USE OF THE WEBSITE

You may visit our Website and use several of our offerings on the internet without any need to furnish personal details. In such cases, We do not collect any personal data from You, but rather merely store access data in so-called server log files which are automatically communicated to us by your browser, such as the name of the file requested, the website most recently visited, the date and time of your access, the browser used, the volume of data transmitted, the provider through which the query was directed etc. This data is stored only for a limited time. Such data is used exclusively to ensure fault free operations of our Website, to enable us to perform error analysis and to improve the products and services offered and do not enable us to identify You personally.

2. DATA COLLECTION AND USE FOR PERFORMANCE OF CONTRACTS

We collect personal data if You provide such data to us when initiating contact with us (e.g. by contact form or email). The respective entry forms will show You which individual data are collected and which details are obligatory and which are voluntary.

We collect and use the data communicated by You in such cases for performing the individual contract in question and to deal with your enquiries. Following complete performance of the specific contract or deletion of your User account, Your Data are blocked for any further use, and will be deleted upon expiry of the retention periods prescribed under tax and commercial law if You have not expressly consented to our further use of Your Data or if We have reserved the right to use the data extending beyond such use, where this is permitted by law and We have informed You below.

You may review the duration of persistent cookies through your browser. You may set your browser so that You are informed whenever cookies are set and can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept them or wish to refuse to accept cookies in certain cases or on a general basis. Where You set your browser to reject cookies, this may limit the functionality of our Website.

4. SOCIAL NETWORKS

This website uses so-called social Plugins (“Plugins”) of the social networks Facebook and Google+ and provides links to content from further third party providers. These services are offered by Facebook Inc.and Google Inc. (“Providers”).

Facebook is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). You will find an overview of the Plugins of Facebook and their appearance here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins.

Google+ and YouTube are operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). You will find an overview of the Plugins of Google and their appearance here:   https://developers.google.com/+/plugins.

In order to increase the protection of Your Data when visiting our Website, the Plugins are linked to our site by means of so-called „Shariff-Lösung“ from c‘t. This link ensures that when You access any page of our Website containing such Plugins this will not yet create any link to the servicers of those Providers. 

If You click on one of the buttons, this will open a new window in your browser and will launch the login page for the service providers, some of whom are located in the United States of America (USA). If You are already logged in, your browser will directly open a page from Google, Facebook or Twitter, on which You can then activate, for example, the like or share button.
