II. Rights of users and data subjects
With regard to the data processing described in more detail below, the users and data subjects have the right
- to confirmation as to whether data relating to them is being processed, to information about the data processed, to further information about the data processing and to copies of the data (cf. also Art. 15 DSGVO);
- to rectification or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data (cf. also Art. 16 DSGVO);

- to receive the data concerning them and provided by them and to transfer this data to other providers/controllers (cf. also Art. 20 DSGVO);
- to complain to the supervisory authority, if they believe that the data concerning them is processed by the provider in violation of data protection law (see also Art. 77 DSGVO);
In addition, the provider is obliged to inform all recipients to whom data has been disclosed by the provider about any correction or deletion of data or restriction of processing that takes place on the basis of Articles 16, 17 (1), 18 DSGVO. However, this obligation does not exist insofar as this notification is impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Notwithstanding the above, the user has a right to information about these recipients.
According to Art. 21 DSGVO, users and data subjects also have the right to object to the future processing of data relating to them, insofar as the data is processed by the provider in accordance with Art. 6 (1) f) DSGVO. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purpose of direct marketing is admissible.
III. Information on data processing
Your data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies, the deletion of the data does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations and no other information is provided below regarding individual processing procedures.
Server data
For technical reasons, in particular to ensure a secure and stable Internet presence, data is transmitted by your Internet browser to us or to our web space provider. With these so-called server log files, among other things, the type and version of your Internet browser, the operating system, the website from which you have accessed our Internet presence (referrer URL), the website(s) of our Internet presence that you visit, the date and time of the respective access, as well as the IP address of the Internet connection from which the use of our Internet presence takes place, are collected.
These data are collected in this way.
This data collected in this way is stored temporarily, but not together with other data from you.
This storage takes place on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality and security of our website.
The data will be deleted again after seven days at the latest, unless further storage for evidence purposes is required. Otherwise, the data is exempt from deletion in whole or in part until the final clarification of an incident.
Check of creditworthiness and scoring
If we offer you the basic option of payment by invoice within the scope of our range of goods or services and you make use of this option, we reserve the right to obtain credit information from a credit agency (such as Creditreform, Schufa, Bürgel or infoscore) on the basis of mathematical-statistical methods. For this purpose, your data, insofar as they are relevant to the contract, such as your name and address, will be forwarded to the credit agency. We use the subsequent information about the statistical probability of non-payment for our decision whether to offer you payment by invoice.
The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in the default security of the claim according to Art. 6 para.1 lit. f) DSGVO.
Newsletter
If you register for our free newsletter, the data you requested for this purpose, i.e. your e-mail address and - optionally - your name and address, will be transmitted to us. At the same time, we store the IP address of the Internet connection from which you access our website as well as the date and time of your registration. During the further registration process, we will ask for your consent to send you the newsletter, describe the content in detail and refer to this privacy policy. We use the data collected in the process exclusively for the newsletter dispatch - they are therefore in particular also not passed on to third parties.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO.
You can revoke your consent to the sending of newsletters at any time with future effect in accordance with Art. 7 (3) DSGVO. To do this, you only need to inform us of your revocation or use the unsubscribe link contained in each newsletter.
User contributions, comments and ratings
We offer you the opportunity to publish questions, answers, opinions or ratings, hereinafter referred to only as "contributions," on our Internet pages. If you take advantage of this offer, we process and publish your contribution, date and time of submission and the pseudonym used by you, if any.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO. You can revoke your consent in accordance with Art. 7 (3) DSGVO at any time with effect for the future. For this purpose, you only need to inform us of your revocation.
In addition, we also process your IP and e-mail address. The IP address is processed because we have a legitimate interest in taking or supporting further action if your contribution infringes the rights of third parties and/or it is otherwise unlawful.
The legal basis for this is that you have provided us with your IP address.
The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. Our legitimate interest lies in the possibly necessary legal defense.
