Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent.
You can revoke consent at any time.
The legality of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to Object to Data Collection in Specific Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 DSGVO)
RIGHT TO OBJECT BASED ON PERSONAL SITUATION
IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) DSGVO, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME, FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS.
THE APPLICABLE LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY.
IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ESTABLISH, EXERCISE, OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) DSGVO).
RIGHT TO OBJECT TO DIRECT MARKETING
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING.
IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) DSGVO).
Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
If you believe that your rights under the DSGVO have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority — particularly in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement.
This right exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive personal data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
You also have the right to have this data transmitted directly to another controller, where technically feasible.
Right of Access, Rectification, and Erasure
Within the scope of applicable legal provisions, you have the right to request free information at any time about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of processing.
You may also have the right to correct or delete this data.
For this and other questions regarding personal data, you may contact us at any time.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
To do so, you can contact us at any time.
The right to restriction applies in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this.
During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of processing. - If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction instead of erasure.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing instead of deletion.
- If you have objected under Art. 21(1) DSGVO, a balance must be struck between your and our interests. Until it is determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of processing.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data — apart from storage — may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

4. Data Collection on This Website
Cookies
Our website uses so-called “cookies.” Cookies are small data packets that do not cause any damage to your device.
They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies) on your device.
Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit ends.
Persistent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or your web browser deletes them automatically.
Cookies can be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party companies (third-party cookies).
Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services provided by third parties within websites (e.g. payment services).
Cookies have various functions.
Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. shopping cart functionality or video display).
Cookies that are required for electronic communication, to provide specific functions requested by you (e.g. shopping cart), or to optimize the website (e.g. cookies for measuring website traffic) are stored based on Art. 6(1)(f) DSGVO, unless another legal basis is specified.
The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services.
Contact via Email, Phone, or Fax
If you contact us by email, phone, or fax, your inquiry — including all resulting personal data (e.g. name, message) — will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request.
We do not share this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) DSGVO if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures.
In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling incoming inquiries (Art. 6(1)(f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) DSGVO), if it has been requested. Consent can be revoked at any time.
The data you provide via contact requests will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been fully processed).
Mandatory legal provisions — especially retention periods under commercial or tax law — remain unaffected.
