2. Data protection officer

We are not required to appoint a data protection officer (Section 38 BDSG). If you have questions about data protection, please contact us at the email address above.

3. Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by STRATO GmbH, Otto-Ostrowski-Straße 7, 10249 Berlin, Germany. According to STRATO, data is processed exclusively in data centres in Germany.

When you visit this website, our host automatically processes data transmitted by your browser: IP address, date and time of access, page visited, amount of data transferred, browser type and operating system and, if transmitted, the previously visited page. We need this data to deliver the website and keep it secure. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the secure and stable operation of the website.

STRATO stores IP addresses in the log files only in anonymised form and keeps the log files available for up to six weeks. We have concluded a data processing agreement with STRATO under Art. 28 GDPR.

4. Contact by email or phone

If you email or call us, we process your contact details, your message and any information you voluntarily provide in order to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry relates to a contract, and otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is answering your enquiry. We delete the data once your enquiry has been fully dealt with, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

Our emails are also processed by STRATO GmbH under the same data processing agreement.

5. Links to social networks

We link to our company page on LinkedIn. This is a simple link, not an embedded plugin, so no data is transferred to LinkedIn when you visit our website. Only when you click the link are you taken to LinkedIn, where LinkedIn's privacy policy applies.

6. Cookies and local storage

This website does not set cookies and does not store any information on your device. We do not use analytics or tracking services and do not load content such as fonts, videos or maps from third-party servers.

7. Your rights

You have the right of access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16 GDPR), erasure (Art. 17 GDPR), restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR) and data portability (Art. 20 GDPR). Simply contact us at the email address above.

Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR): Where we process data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, you may object to this processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation. We will then no longer process the data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

8. Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The authority responsible for us is the Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (Berliner Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit), Alt-Moabit 59-61, 10555 Berlin, Germany, www.datenschutz-berlin.de.
