In the course of our business activities, we work with various external entities. This sometimes requires the transfer of personal data to these external entities. We only transfer personal data to external entities when it is necessary for the performance of a contract, when we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., transfer of data to tax authorities), when we have a legitimate interest in the transfer pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or when another legal basis permits the transfer of data. When using contract processors, we transfer our customers' personal data only on the basis of a valid contract for contract processing. In the case of joint processing, a contract for joint processing is concluded.
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can withdraw consent that has already been given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing that occurred prior to the withdrawal will not be affected by the withdrawal.
If the data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. You can find the respective legal basis on which processing is based in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR).

In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to complain shall be without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
You have the right to have data that we process automatically with your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.

You can contact us at any time for this purpose, as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data.
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact us for this purpose at any time. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

This website uses the LinkedIn Insight Tag. The provider of this service is LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Using the LinkedIn Insight Tag, we gather information about our website visitors. If a website visitor is registered on LinkedIn, we can, among other things, analyze the professional key data (e.g., career level, company size, country, location, industry, and job title) of our website visitors and thus better tailor our site to the respective target groups. Furthermore, with the help of LinkedIn Insight Tags, we can measure whether visitors to our websites make a purchase or take another action (conversion tracking). Conversion tracking can also be done across devices (e.g., from PC to tablet). The LinkedIn Insight Tag also offers a retargeting function, with which we can display targeted advertising outside the website to our website visitors, whereby according to LinkedIn, the recipient of the advertisement is not identified.
LinkedIn also collects so-called log files (URL, referrer URL, IP address, device and browser properties, and time of access). IP addresses are anonymized or hashed (pseudonymized) if used to reach LinkedIn members across devices. Direct identifiers of LinkedIn members are deleted by LinkedIn after seven days. The remaining pseudonymized data is then deleted within 180 days.
The data collected by LinkedIn cannot be attributed to specific individuals by us as website operators. LinkedIn will store the collected personal data of website visitors on its servers in the USA and use it for its own advertising purposes. For details, please refer to LinkedIn's privacy policy at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy#choices-oblig.

The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements for sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You can object to storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interests.
This website embeds videos from the website YouTube. The operator of the website is Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
When you visit one of our websites where YouTube is embedded, a connection is established with YouTube's servers. This informs the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited.
Furthermore, YouTube may store various cookies on your device or use comparable technologies for recognition (e.g., device fingerprinting). In this way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to record video statistics, improve user-friendliness, and prevent fraudulent activities. Furthermore, the collected data is processed within the Google advertising network.
When you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
The use of YouTube serves the purpose of an appealing presentation of our online services. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If appropriate consent has been requested, the processing will be carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG.

This site uses the Google Maps service. The provider is Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. We use this service to embed map material on our website.

When you access Google Maps, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.

We use „Google reCAPTCHA“ (hereinafter „reCAPTCHA“) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
reCAPTCHA is used to verify whether data input on this website (e.g., in a contact form) is performed by a human or an automated program. To do this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the website visitor's behavior based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g., IP address, duration of the website visitor's stay on the website, or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
The reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not informed that an analysis is taking place.
In this context, Google acts solely as a data processor within the meaning of Art. 28 GDPR and will not use the data collected in this way for its own purposes. The use of the tool is based on a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with Google.
The storage and analysis of data are carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offerings from abusive automated spying and from SPAM. If corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

SalesViewer allows us to track visits from employees of other companies to our website. For this purpose, the IP address of the website visitor is matched against the company IP addresses stored in the SalesViewer company database. If it is a company IP address, this visit and the user behavior are recorded. IP addresses not found in the SalesViewer database are immediately deleted, so that website visits by private individuals are ignored by SalesViewer.

Furthermore, the tool provider processes all technical data required for online communication. This includes, in particular, IP addresses, MAC addresses, device IDs, device type, operating system type and version, client version, camera type, microphone or speaker, and connection type.
If content is exchanged, uploaded, or otherwise provided within the tool, it will also be stored on the servers of the tool provider. Such content includes, in particular, cloud recordings, chat/instant messages, voicemails, uploaded photos and videos, files, whiteboards, and other information shared during the use of the service.
Please note that we do not have full control over the data processing operations of the tools used. Our possibilities are primarily determined by the company policies of the respective providers. For further information on data processing by the conference tools, please refer to the data protection statements of the respective tools used, which we have listed below this text.
The conference tools are used to communicate with prospective or existing contractual partners or to offer specific services to our customers (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR).

Where consent has been requested, the relevant tools are used on the basis of this consent; consent can be revoked at any time with future effect.
The data we immediately collect from you via video and conference tools will be deleted by our systems as soon as you request deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them. Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
