3. Personal data, purposes of processing and legal basis As a rule, it is possible to use our website without providing personal data. The provision of personal data is voluntary. Personal data are any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter "data subject"). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more factors specific to the identity of that natural person. The purpose of the processing of data is the operation of a website with information on our range of services together with contact options and the conclusion of contracts. Personal data are collected on our website when this is necessary a) for the use of the website (legal basis: Article 6 para. 1 lit. a and/or Article 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR), b) to protect our interest in improving the user experience and maintaining the security of use (legal basis: Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR), c) for the use of the services offered on the website as well as pre-contractual measures, in particular for form entries (legal basis: Article 6 para. 1 lit. a and/or Article 6 para. 1 b GDPR) or d) for the conclusion and performance of a contract (legal basis: Article 6 para. 1 lit. a and lit. b GDPR).

4. Duration of storage The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the relevant statutory retention periods (e.g. from commercial law and tax law). After expiry of the respective period, the corresponding data are routinely deleted. If data are required to fulfil or initiate a contract or if we have a legitimate interest incontinuing to store them, the data will be deleted when they are no longer required for these purposes or you have exercised your right of revocation or objection.

5. Transfer of data Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties unless: a) we have explicitly indicated this in the description of the respective data processing, b) you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, c) the disclosure is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data, d) a legal obligation exists for the disclosure in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR and e) this is necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. We also use external service providers for the processing of our services, which we have carefully selected and commissioned in writing. They are bound by our instructions and are regularly monitored by us. If necessary, we have concluded order processing contracts with them in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. These are service providers for web hosting, sending e-mails as well as maintenance and care of our IT systems, etc. The service providers will not pass on these data to third parties. Data transfers to countries outside the European Union and the European Economic Area ("third countries") do not generally take place and are only carried out if the following conditions are met: a) The fulfilment of a legal permission requirement. b) In particular, we ensure an adequate level of data protection in accordance with the EU standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data to data processors in third countries by concluding appropriate contracts. A copy of the standard contractual clauses specified by the EU Commission in this regard can be found on the Internet at: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32021D0914&from=EN Data will only be transferred abroad or to supranational or intergovernmental bodies if this is permitted or required by law. Suitable safeguards may not currently exist for the transfer of data to the USA. The protection of personal data is limited. This comes from the fact that, under US law, security authorities can access data transferred from the EU to the US and use them without restriction to what is strictly necessary. As the data subject, you may not be able to take legal action against such use unless you are a US citizen.

6. Your rights You have the following rights if the legal requirements are met: a) Pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR, you may revoke your consent once given at any time.

When you visit a page with an embedded YouTube video, this is only loaded if you have previously agreed to this in our cookie banner. Nevertheless, data are transmitted through the connection with YouTube, e.g. with information about the page from which the connection was established. YouTube can assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile if you are logged into your YouTube account. You have the option to prevent this by logging out beforehand. We have no influence on this and only limited knowledge of how and to what extent your data are processed. The legal basis for the integration of YouTube and the associated data transfer to Google is your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).

The assertion of contact for sales purposes in the business-to-business area (B2B), taking into account a balancing of interests, can be regarded as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the second-mentioned provision. Those data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent and will be deleted immediately after contact has been made, provided that no further purposes of use arise from this. In the case of Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, you may object to the processing unless the relevant laws permit data processing, inter alia, for the performance of a contract in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR or there is a legal obligation to retain data for this purpose.
