3. General notes and mandatory information

Privacy

The operators of these sites take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.

When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating via e-mail) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Note on the responsible body

The data controller on this website is:

Dr. Detlef Geiges, Ohlenkamp 36, 25436 Moorrege

Phone: +49 (0) 1724549276, E-mail: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

The controller is the natural or legal person who decides alone or jointly with others on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.B. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).

Storage time

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for the data processing is no longer established. If you make a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to the processing of data, your data will be deleted unless we have any other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g. tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, the deletion shall take place after the abolition of these grounds.

Note on data transfer to the USA

Our website includes tools from companies based in the United States. When these tools are active, your personal information may be shared with the U.S. servers of the respective companies. We would like to point out that the US is not a safe third country within the meaning of EU data protection law. U.S. companies are required to disclose personal information to security agencies without you, as a person concerned, being able to take legal action against it. It cannot therefore be ruled out that US authorities (e.B. intelligence agencies) process, evaluate and permanently store your data on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to the collection of data in special cases as well as to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If the data processing happens on the basis of article 6, para 1 Lit. E or F, GDPR, you have at all times the right – for reasons resulting from your specific circumstances – to object against the processing of your personal data. This applies also for profiling based on this provision. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this data protection declaration. If you enter an objection, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compulsory reasons that overrule your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing serves the enforcement, exertion, or the defense of legal claims (objection according to ART. 21 ABS. 1 GDPR).

If your personal data are being processed for the purpose of direct mail you have the right, at all times, to object against the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertisement. This also applies to profiling as far as it is connected to such direct mail. If your objecting, your personal data will no longer be used for the purpose of direct mail (objection according to ART. 21 ABS. 1 GDPR).

Right to complain to the competent supervisory authority

In the event of breaches of the GDPR, the persons concerned shall have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to appeal is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests you send to us as a site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by changing the address line of the browser from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock icon in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you submit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, deletion, and rectification

Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free of charge information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to rectification or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint for further questions on the subject of personal data.

Right to restrict processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the examination, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data has been/happens unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
  • If you have filed an objection under Article 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be made between your interests and our interests. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may be processed, except for its storage, only with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

Objection to promotional e-mails

The use of contact data published within the scope of the imprint obligation for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby objected to. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising information, e.g. by spam e-mails.

4. Data collection on this website

Cookies

Our websites use so-called "cookies". Cookies are small text files and do not cause any damage to your device. They are stored either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or until your web browser automatically deletes them.

In some cases, cookies from third parties may also be stored on your device when you enter our website (third-party cookies). These enable us or you to use certain services provided by the third party company (e.B. cookies for the processing of payment services).

Cookies have different functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies are used to evaluate user behavior or display advertisements.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process (necessary cookies) or to provide certain functions (functional cookies, e.g. for shopping cart function) or to optimize the website (e.g. cookies to measure the web audience) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. f GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies has been requested, the storage of the cookies in question is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. a GDPR); consent can be revoked at any time.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and enable the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. When disabling cookies, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Insofar as cookies are used by third parties or for analysis purposes, we will inform you about this separately within the framework of this data protection declaration and, if necessary, request your consent.

Server Log Files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing machine
  • Time of server request
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website – for this purpose, the server log files must be recorded.

Contact form

If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the request form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored with us for the purpose of processing the request and in case of follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit.b GDPR, provided that your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been queried.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage is omitted (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular retention periods, remain unaffected.

Request by e-mail, telephone or fax

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your request, including any personal data (name, request) resulting from it, will be stored, and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not share this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit.b GDPR, provided that your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been queried.

The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage is omitted (e.B. after your request has been completed). Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.

5. Newsletter

Newsletter data

If you wish to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require you to provide an e-mail address as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data are not collected or only on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for the sending of the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

The processing of the data entered in the newsletter registration form is carried out exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the "Unsubscribe" link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data stored by you for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and are deleted from the newsletter distribution list. We reserve the right to delete or block e-mail addresses from our newsletter distribution list at our discretion within the scope of our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. f GDPR.

After you have left the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address will be stored with us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist in order to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist is used only for this purpose and is not merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with the legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 sec. 1 lit. f GDPR). The storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You may object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

6. Plugins and tools
