StoÂrage duration
Unless a more speÂciÂfic stoÂrage periÂod has been speÂciÂfied in this priÂvaÂcy poliÂcy, your perÂsoÂnal data will remain with us until the purÂpoÂse for which it was collÂecÂted no lonÂger appliÂes. If you assert a jusÂtiÂfied request for deleÂtiÂon or revoÂke your conÂsent to data proÂcesÂsing, your data will be deleÂted, unless we have other legalÂly perÂmisÂsiÂble reasons for stoÂring your perÂsoÂnal data (e.g., tax or comÂmerÂcial law retenÂtiÂon periÂods); in the latÂter case, the deleÂtiÂon will take place after theÂse reasons ceaÂse to apply.
GeneÂral inforÂmaÂtiÂon on the legal basis for the data proÂcesÂsing on this website
If you have conÂsenÂted to data proÂcesÂsing, we proÂcess your perÂsoÂnal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2)(a) GDPR, if speÂcial cateÂgoÂries of data are proÂcesÂsed accorÂding to Art. 9 (1) DSGVO. In the case of expliÂcit conÂsent to the transÂfer of perÂsoÂnal data to third countÂries, the data proÂcesÂsing is also based on Art. 49 (1)(a) GDPR. If you have conÂsenÂted to the stoÂrage of cooÂkies or to the access to inforÂmaÂtiÂon in your end device (e.g., via device finÂgerÂprinÂting), the data proÂcesÂsing is addiÂtioÂnalÂly based on § 25 (1) TTDSG. The conÂsent can be revoÂked at any time. If your data is requiÂred for the fulÂfillÂment of a conÂtract or for the impleÂmenÂtaÂtiÂon of pre-conÂtracÂtuÂal meaÂsuÂres, we proÂcess your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

4. RecorÂding of data on this website
CooÂkies
Our webÂsites and pages use what the indusÂtry refers to as “cooÂkies.” CooÂkies are small data packaÂges that do not cauÂse any damaÂge to your device. They are eitÂher stored temÂpoÂrÂaÂriÂly for the duraÂtiÂon of a sesÂsiÂon (sesÂsiÂon cooÂkies) or they are perÂmaÂnentÂly archiÂved on your device (perÂmaÂnent cooÂkies). SesÂsiÂon cooÂkies are autoÂmaÂtiÂcalÂly deleÂted once you terÂmiÂnaÂte your visit. PerÂmaÂnent cooÂkies remain archiÂved on your device until you actively deleÂte them, or they are autoÂmaÂtiÂcalÂly eraÂdiÂcaÂted by your web browser.
CooÂkies can be issued by us (first-parÂty cooÂkies) or by third-parÂty comÂpaÂnies (so-calÂled third-parÂty cooÂkies). Third-parÂty cooÂkies enable the inteÂgraÂtiÂon of cerÂtain serÂvices of third-parÂty comÂpaÂnies into webÂsites (e.g., cooÂkies for handÂling payÂment services).
CooÂkies have a varieÂty of funcÂtions. Many cooÂkies are techÂniÂcalÂly essenÂtiÂal sinÂce cerÂtain webÂsite funcÂtions would not work in the absence of theÂse cooÂkies (e.g., the shopÂping cart funcÂtion or the disÂplay of videÂos). Other cooÂkies may be used to anaÂlyÂze user behaÂviÂor or for proÂmoÂtioÂnal purposes.
CooÂkies, which are requiÂred for the perÂforÂmance of elecÂtroÂnic comÂmuÂniÂcaÂtiÂon tranÂsacÂtions, for the proÂviÂsiÂon of cerÂtain funcÂtions you want to use (e.g., for the shopÂping cart funcÂtion) or thoÂse that are necesÂsaÂry for the optiÂmizaÂtiÂon (requiÂred cooÂkies) of the webÂsite (e.g., cooÂkies that proÂviÂde meaÂsuraÂble insights into the web audiÂence), shall be stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless a difÂfeÂrent legal basis is cited. The opeÂraÂtor of the webÂsite has a legiÂtiÂmaÂte inteÂrest in the stoÂrage of requiÂred cooÂkies to ensuÂre the techÂniÂcalÂly error-free and optiÂmiÂzed proÂviÂsiÂon of the operator’s serÂvices. If your conÂsent to the stoÂrage of the cooÂkies and simiÂlar recoÂgniÂtiÂon techÂnoÂloÂgies has been requesÂted, the proÂcesÂsing occurs excluÂsiÂveÂly on the basis of the conÂsent obtaiÂned (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG); this conÂsent may be revoÂked at any time.
You have the optiÂon to set up your browÂser in such a manÂner that you will be notiÂfied any time cooÂkies are plaÂced and to perÂmit the accepÂtance of cooÂkies only in speÂciÂfic cases. You may also exclude the accepÂtance of cooÂkies in cerÂtain cases or in geneÂral or actiÂvaÂte the deleÂte-funcÂtion for the autoÂmaÂtic eraÂdiÂcaÂtiÂon of cooÂkies when the browÂser cloÂses. If cooÂkies are deacÂtiÂvaÂted, the funcÂtions of this webÂsite may be limited.
Which cooÂkies and serÂvices are used on this webÂsite can be found in this priÂvaÂcy policy.
