Privacy Policy

General information and mandatory information

Name of the responsible body

The responsible body for data processing on this website is:

Erik Konertz
Armgartstrasse 26
22087 Hamburg

The responsible body decides alone or jointly with others on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, contact details, etc.).

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Some data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. To revoke your consent, simply send us an informal email. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the point of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

As a data subject, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in the event of a breach of data protection law. The competent supervisory authority for data protection issues is the state data protection officer of the federal state in which our company is based. The following link provides a list of data protection officers and their contact details: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.

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 third parties. The data will be provided in a 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.

Right to information, correction, blocking, deletion

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to obtain information free of charge at any time about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, its recipients and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data. In this regard, and also for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time using the contact options listed in the imprint.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This means that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the ‘https://’ address line in your browser and the lock symbol in the browser line.

Contact form

Data transmitted via the contact form, including your contact details, will be stored so that we can process your enquiry or be available for follow-up questions. This data will not be passed on without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form will be processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke your consent at any time. To revoke your consent, simply send us an informal email. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up to the point of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Data transmitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to its storage, or there is no longer any need for data storage. Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Vimeo

Our website uses plugins from Vimeo to integrate and display video content. The video portal is provided by Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.

When you visit a page with an integrated Vimeo plugin, a connection to Vimeo’s servers is established. This allows Vimeo to see which of our pages you have visited. Vimeo will receive your IP address, even if you are not logged in to the video portal or do not have an account there. The information collected by Vimeo is transmitted to the video portal’s servers in the United States.

Vimeo can assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out beforehand.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help us to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure.

Some cookies are ‘session cookies.’ These cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your browser session. Other cookies, however, remain on your device until you delete them yourself. These cookies help us to recognise you when you return to our website.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Many web browsers can be configured so that cookies are automatically deleted when the programme is closed. Deactivating cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

The setting of cookies that are necessary for the performance of electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions requested by you (e.g. shopping basket) is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. If other cookies (e.g. for analysis functions) are set, these are dealt with separately in this privacy policy.

Borlabs Cookie
This website uses Borlabs Cookie, which sets a technically necessary cookie (borlabs-cookie) to store your cookie consent.

Borlabs Cookie does not process any personal data.

The borlabs-cookie stores the consents you gave when you entered the website. If you wish to revoke these consents, simply delete the cookie in your browser. When you re-enter/reload the website, you will be asked again for your cookie consent.

Wordfence security plugin

This site uses the WordPress security plugin Wordfence to protect the website from hacker attacks, etc. The provider is DEFIANT, 800 5th Ave Ste 4100, Seattle, WA 98104.

Wordfence currently uses three cookies. Below is an explanation of what each cookie does, who set the cookie, and why the cookie helps protect the site.

Cookie: wfwaf-authcookie- (Hash)
What it does: This cookie is used by the WORDFENCE firewall to perform a capability check on the current user before loading WordPress.
Who receives this cookie: This cookie is only set for users who can log in to WordPress.
How this cookie helps: With this cookie, the Wordfence firewall recognises logged-in users and grants them increased access. Wordfence can also recognise users who are not logged in and restrict their access to secure areas. The cookie informs the firewall about a visitor’s access level to help the firewall make smart decisions about who to allow and who to block.

Cookie: wf_loginalerted_ (Hash)

What it does: This cookie is used to notify the Wordfence administrator when an administrator logs in from a new device or location.
Who receives this cookie: This cookie is only set for administrators.
How this cookie helps: This cookie helps website operators know if an admin login has taken place from a new device or location.

Cookie: wfCBLBypass
What it does: Wordfence offers site visitors the option to bypass country blocking by accessing a hidden URL. This cookie is used to track who is allowed to bypass country blocking.
Who receives this cookie: When a hidden URL defined by the site administrator is accessed, this cookie is used to check whether the user can access the site from a country that is restricted by the country block. This is set for anyone who knows the URL that allows them to bypass the standard country block. This cookie is not set for anyone who does not know the hidden URL to bypass the country block.

How this cookie helps: This cookie allows website owners to allow certain users to access blocked countries, even though their country has been blocked.

Google Analytics
Our website uses features of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analytics service is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses ‘cookies.’ These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device and enable an analysis of website usage. Information generated by cookies about your use of our website is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. The server location is usually the USA.

Google Analytics cookies are set on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and, where applicable, our advertising.

IP anonymisation

We use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymisation function. This ensures that Google truncates your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before it is transmitted to the USA. There may be exceptional cases in which Google transmits the full IP address to a server in the USA and truncates it there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

Browser Plugin

You can prevent your web browser from setting cookies. However, this may restrict some of the functions of our website. You can also prevent Google from collecting data relating to your website usage, including your IP address, and subsequently processing it. You can do this by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Objection to data collection

You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent your data from being collected on future visits to our website: Disable Google Analytics.

Details on how user data is handled by Google Analytics can be found in Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Order processing

In order to fully comply with legal data protection requirements, we have entered into an order processing agreement with Google.

Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics

Our website uses the ‘demographic characteristics’ feature of Google Analytics. This feature allows us to generate reports that contain information about the age, gender and interests of website visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising by Google and visitor data from third-party providers. It is not possible to assign the data to a specific person. You can deactivate this feature at any time. This can be done via the ad settings in your Google account or by generally prohibiting the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as explained in the section ‘Objection to data collection’.

Google AdSense

Our website uses Google AdSense. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google AdSense is used to integrate advertisements and sets cookies. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your device to analyse your use of the website. Google AdSense also uses web beacons. Web beacons are invisible graphics that enable us to analyse visitor traffic on our website.

Information generated by cookies and web beacons is transmitted to Google servers and stored there. The servers are located in the United States. Google may pass this information on to contractual partners. However, Google will not merge your IP address with other data stored about you.

AdSense cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As website operators, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and advertising.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict and prevent the setting of cookies. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality of our website. By using our website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion-Tracking

Our website uses Google AdWords. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States.

AdWords is an online advertising programme. As part of the online advertising programme, we use conversion tracking. After clicking on an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set for conversion tracking. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Google AdWords cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. The cookie allows Google and us to recognise that you have clicked on an ad and been redirected to our website.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot be tracked via AdWords customer websites. Conversion cookies are used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who use conversion tracking. AdWords customers learn how many users clicked on their ad and were redirected to pages with conversion tracking tags. However, AdWords customers do not receive any information that allows them to personally identify users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to its use. To do so, deactivate the conversion cookie in your browser’s user settings. This will prevent you from being included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The storage of conversion cookies is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the website operator, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and advertising.

Details about Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking can be found in Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Deactivating cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.
