2.2 Use of Google Analytics or other analysis tools
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. In the event that IP anonymisation is activated on this website, however, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.

We would like to point out that the code "anonymizeIp" has been added to Google Analytics on this website in order to ensure anonymised collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).
The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) f DSGVO, whereby the Company's authorisation results from the fact that, on the one hand, there is an interest on the part of the Company in evaluating the website data for page optimisation purposes and, on the other hand, a data subject can reasonably foresee at the time of the collection of the personal data and in view of the circumstances in which it takes place (in particular the measures mentioned above) that processing may possibly take place for this purpose.

5. use of social media plug-ins
We currently use the following social media plug-ins:
We use the so-called two-click solution. This means that when you visit our site, no personal data is passed on to the providers of the plug-ins. You can recognise the provider of the plug-in by the marking on the box above its initial letter or logo. We give you the opportunity to communicate directly with the provider of the plug-in via the button. Only if you click on the marked box and thereby activate it, will the plug-in provider receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding website of our online offer. In addition, the data mentioned under point 2 b) is transmitted.
In the case of Facebook and Xing, according to the respective providers in Germany, the IP address is anonymised immediately after collection.
By activating the plug-in, your personal data will be transmitted to the respective plug-in provider and stored there (in the case of US providers, in the USA). Since the plug-in provider collects the data in particular via cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies via your browser's security settings before clicking on the greyed-out box or the logo of the plug-in provider.
We have no influence on the data collected and data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full extent of the data collection, the purposes of the processing, the storage periods. We also have no information on the deletion of the collected data by the plug-in provider.
The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for non-logged-in users) for the display of needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website.
You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact the respective plug-in provider to exercise this right.
Via the plug-ins, we offer you the opportunity to interact with the social networks and other users so that we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. The legal basis for the provision and use of the plug-ins is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO.
The data transfer takes place regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in to the plug-in provider, the data we collect is directly assigned to your account with the plug-in provider. If you click the activated button and, for example, link to the page, the plug-in provider also saves this information in your user account and shares it publicly with your contacts. We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, as this will help you avoid being assigned to your profile with the plug-in provider.
For further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the plug-in provider, please refer to the data protection declarations of these providers provided below. There you will also receive further information on your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy.

By visiting the website or clicking on the YouTube logo, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding sub-page of our website. In addition, the data mentioned in section 2.1 of this declaration is transmitted.

If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not wish to have your data associated with your YouTube profile, you must log out before activating the button. YouTube stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or designing its website in line with requirements. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website.
You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact YouTube to exercise this right.
For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by YouTube, please see the privacy policy.

You can do this, for example, as part of a registration process, by filling in a relevant form or sending us an email, ordering products or services, making enquiries or requesting materials, or registering. Unless otherwise required by law, we will only use your personal data for the purposes for which you have given your consent.
8. will my data be passed on to third parties, e.g. to authorities?
Within the Company, your data will be disclosed to those entities that need it to fulfil our contractual and legal obligations. Some data must be passed on under strict contractual and legal conditions:
Due to legal obligation:
In certain cases, we are legally obliged to transmit data to a requesting government agency.
Upon presentation of a court order, we are obliged under Section 101 of the Copyright Act to provide owners of copyrights and ancillary copyrights with information about customers who are alleged to have offered copyrighted works on Internet file-sharing networks. In these cases, our information contains the user ID of an IP address allocated at the time requested and, if known, the name and address of the customer.
Apart from that, personal data is only transferred to state institutions and authorities within the framework of mandatory national legal provisions or if the transfer is necessary for legal or criminal prosecution in the event of attacks on the network infrastructure. The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 c DSGVO or § 24 para. 2 no. 1 BDSG.
To external service providers for data processing:
If service providers come into contact with your personal data, this usually takes place within the framework of a so-called commissioned processing of personal data. This is expressly provided for by law. Nevertheless, the Company remains responsible for the protection of your data in this case as well - if applicable, in addition to the processor. The processor works exclusively in accordance with our instructions, which we ensure through corresponding contractual regulations, through technical and organisational measures and through additional controls.
The company uses service providers as processors, in particular in the categories of IT services (e.g. for technical-administrative tasks and for usage analysis), telecommunications, consulting and advisory services as well as sales and marketing.
The data protection requirements for commissioned processing of personal data in accordance with instructions are complied with.
To group companies of the Company:
The Company may transfer your personal data to group companies of the Company in order to carry out any business relationship that may exist with you or to protect its legitimate interests.
If data are transferred abroad, they shall be located within the EU or the EEA or in a country that has an adequate level of data protection in accordance with a decision of the EU Commission. In the case of data transfers to group companies of the Company with their registered office in other countries, the Company shall ensure by way of guarantees that the group company importing the data has been committed to an adequate level of data protection.
We currently share your personal data with the following processors in particular:
Name: Heinrich Steuber GmbH + Co.
Country: Germany
Purpose: business development, joint market development
Beyond this, we do not pass on any data to third parties unless you have expressly consented, the transfer is recognisably necessary for the implementation of an offer or service requested by you or this is provided for by law. We also do not intend to transfer your data to a third country or an international organisation.
9. how long will my data be kept?
We store data for as long as is legally necessary or required to provide the service you have requested or as specified in the consent you have given.
Do I have the right to information and correction of my stored data? What other rights do I have with regard to my stored data?
