Data Protection
We treat personal data confidentiality and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration. As a rule, our website can be used without entering personal data. Insofar as personal data (e.g. name, address or e-mail addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without our express consent.
When visiting our website, the name of the Internet service provider used, the data transmitted by the browser, and the websites visited are generally transmitted. We use Google Analytics (see below) to evaluate this information for statistical purposes. We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) can be subject to security gaps. A complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.

Collection of access data and log files
We or our hosting provider, as the case may be, raise a claim for the protection of legitimate interests within the meaning of GDPR data about each access to the server on which this service is located (so-called server log files).

The legitimate interests are: Elimination of disturbances, guarantee of IT security, prosecution of illegal uses of the online offer.

Data, the further storage of which is necessary for evidence purposes, is excluded from deletion until the respective incident has been finally clarified.

Furthermore, reading habits of the subscribers are recorded, for example clicks on links and used to optimize our email newsletter. To unsubscribe from the newsletter, please use the link in each newsletter footer. Mailchimp promises to automatically delete all collected data afterwards. We will then no longer have access to it.
