The operators of these pages 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. As a rule, it is possible to use our website without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (e.g. name, address or email addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible.

These data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit consent. Also, a transfer of your data to a third country is excluded. We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may have security gaps. A complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible.
According to Article 15 of the new European General Data Protection Regulation, data subjects have the right to request confirmation from the controller, free of charge, as to whether personal data relating to them is being processed.

If this is the case, the data subject has a right of access to the purpose of the processing, the categories of personal data concerned, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been disclosed and the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored.
In addition, data subjects have the right to rectification or erasure of personal data concerning them or to restriction or objection to the processing of their personal data.
Please send all requests for information to the address given in the imprint.

Furthermore, data subjects have a right of appeal to the competent data protection supervisory authority:

Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht (BayLDA)
Promenade 27
91522 Ansbach
Tel: +49 (0)981 53 1300

We take data protection very seriously and have commissioned an external and independent data protection officer to continuously review the relevant standards.

Cookies
Some of our web pages use cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain any viruses. Cookies serve to make our offering more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called ‘session cookies.’ They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit. You can adjust the settings on your browser so that you are informed when cookies are set and only allow cookies in individual cases, accept cookies in certain cases or generally exclude them, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. If you disable cookies, the functionality of this website may be limited.

SSL encryption
This site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the requests you send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from ‘http://’ to ‘https://’ and by the lock symbol in your browser line. When SSL encryption is activated, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

Server log files
The website provider 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 computer
Time of server request
These data cannot be assigned to specific persons. These data are not combined with other data sources. We reserve the right to check these data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of illegal use.

Contact form
If you send us an enquiry using the contact form, the information you provide in the enquiry form, including the contact data you enter, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your written consent.

Google Web Fonts
This site uses so-called web fonts, provided by Google, for the uniform display of fonts. When you access a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.
To do this, the browser you use must connect to Google’s servers. This enables Google to know that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a consistent and attractive presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font will be used by your computer.
Further information about Google Web Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

Google Maps
This site uses the Google Maps map service via an API. It is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
To use Google Maps, it is necessary to save your IP address. This information is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transfer. We use Google Maps to present our online content in an appealing manner and to make it easier to find the locations we specify on the website. This constitutes a legitimate interest as defined in Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. For more information on how user data is handled, please refer to Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
