Relevant legal bases
Relevant legal bases according to the GDPR: Below you will find an overview of the legal bases of the GDPR on the basis of which we process personal data. Please note that in addition to the regulations of the GDPR, national data protection regulations may apply in your or our country of residence or domicile. If more specific legal bases apply in individual cases, we will inform you of these in the data protection declaration.

- Consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a) GDPR) - The data subject has given his or her consent to the processing of personal data concerning him or her for a specific purpose or several specific purposes.
- Contract fulfillment and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b) GDPR) - Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or to carry out pre-contractual measures that are carried out at the request of the data subject.
- Legal obligation (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. c) GDPR) - Processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which the controller is subject.
- Legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f) GDPR) - the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, which require the protection of personal data, do not outweigh them.

National data protection regulations in Germany: In addition to the data protection regulations of the GDPR, national data protection regulations apply in Germany. This includes in particular the law to protect against misuse of personal data during data processing (Federal Data Protection Act – BDSG). In particular, the BDSG contains special regulations on the right to information, the right to deletion, the right to object, the processing of special categories of personal data, processing for other purposes and transmission and automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling. Furthermore, state data protection laws of the individual federal states may apply.

Note on the applicability of the Swiss DSG and the GDPR: This privacy notice is intended to provide information under both the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (DSG) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). For readability and clarity, GDPR terminology is used throughout. In particular, the GDPR terms "processing", "personal data", "legitimate interest" and "special categories of data" are used in place of corresponding terms in Swiss law. The legal interpretation of these terms remains governed by the applicable Swiss data protection law where Swiss law applies.

Security measures
We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the type, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing as well as the different probabilities of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons in order to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.

The measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as the access, input, disclosure, ensuring availability and its separation. We have also set up procedures to ensure that the rights of those affected are exercised, data are deleted and responses are made to data threats. We also take the protection of personal data into account when developing or selecting hardware, software and procedures in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings.

Securing online connections using TLS/SSL encryption technology (HTTPS): To protect user data transmitted via our online services from unauthorized access, we use TLS/SSL encryption technology. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) are the cornerstones of secure data transmission on the Internet. These technologies encrypt the information transmitted between the website or app and the user's browser (or between two servers), thereby protecting the data from unauthorized access. TLS, as the advanced and more secure version of SSL, ensures that all data transfers meet the highest security standards. If a website is secured by an SSL/TLS certificate, this is signaled by displaying HTTPS in the URL. This serves as an indicator to users that their data is being transmitted securely and encrypted.

General information on data storage and deletion
We delete personal data that we process in accordance with legal regulations as soon as the underlying consent is revoked or there are no further legal bases for the processing. This applies to cases in which the original purpose of processing no longer applies or the data is no longer needed. Exceptions to this rule exist if legal obligations or special interests require longer storage or archiving of the data.

In particular, data that must be stored for commercial or tax reasons or whose storage is necessary for legal prosecution or to protect the rights of other natural or legal persons must be archived accordingly.

Our data protection notice contains additional information on the retention and deletion of data that applies specifically to certain processing processes.

If there is more than one piece of information about the retention period or deletion period for a date, the longest period always applies. We process data that is no longer stored for the originally intended purpose but due to legal requirements or other reasons only for the reasons that justify its retention.

Retention and deletion of data: The following general deadlines apply to retention and archiving under German law:
- 10 years - Retention period for books and records, annual financial statements, inventories, management reports, opening balance sheets as well as the work instructions and other organizational documents required for their understanding (Section 147 Paragraph 1 No. 1 in conjunction with Paragraph 3 AO, Section 14b Paragraph 1 UStG, Section 257 Paragraph 1 No. 1 in conjunction with Paragraph 4 HGB).
- 8 years - accounting documents, such as: B. Invoices and cost receipts (§ 147 para. 1 no. 4 and 4a in conjunction with para. 3 sentence 1 AO and § 257 para. 1 no. 4 in conjunction with para. 4 HGB).
- 6 years - Other business documents: commercial or business letters received, copies of the commercial or business letters sent, other documents insofar as they are important for taxation, e.g. E.g. hourly wage slips, company accounting sheets, calculation documents, price labels, but also payroll documents, provided they are not already accounting documents and cash register slips (§ 147 Para. 1 No. 2, 3, 5 in conjunction with Para. 3 AO, § 257 Para. 1 No. 2 and 3 in conjunction with Para. 4 HGB).
- 3 years - Data required to consider potential warranty and damage claims or similar contractual claims and rights as well as to process related inquiries based on previous business experience and usual industry practices will be stored for the duration of the regular statutory limitation period of three years (§§ 195, 199 BGB).

Start of the deadline at the end of the year: If a deadline does not explicitly start on a specific date and is at least one year, it starts automatically at the end of the calendar year in which the event triggering the deadline occurred. In the case of ongoing contractual relationships in which data is stored, the event that triggers the deadline is the time when the termination or other termination of the legal relationship comes into effect.

Rights of data subjects
Rights of the data subjects under the GDPR: As a data subject, you are entitled to various rights under the GDPR, which arise in particular from Articles 15 to 21 of the GDPR:
- Right to object: You have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is carried out on the basis of Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) of the GDPR; This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; This also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected to such direct advertising.
- Right to revoke consent: You have the right to revoke your consent at any time.
- Right to information: You have the right to request confirmation as to whether the data in question is being processed and to receive information about this data as well as further information and a copy of the data in accordance with legal requirements.

- Right to deletion and restriction of processing: In accordance with the legal requirements, you have the right to demand that data concerning you be deleted immediately or, alternatively, to request that the processing of the data be restricted in accordance with the legal requirements.
- Right to data portability: You have the right to receive data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format in accordance with the legal requirements or to request that it be transmitted to another person responsible.
- Complaint to a supervisory authority: Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your usual place of residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged violation, if you are of the opinion that the processing of your personal data violates the requirements of the GDPR.

Business benefits
We process personal data of our contractual and business partners, such as customers, clients, interested parties, suppliers and other cooperation partners (collectively "contractual partners"), to initiate, implement and process contractual relationships and comparable legal relationships. This also includes pre-contractual measures that take place upon request, as well as communication in connection with the respective contractual relationship.

The processing serves in particular to fulfill our main and secondary contractual obligations. This includes the provision of the agreed services, any update and information obligations, the processing of warranty and other service disruptions, the processing of cancellations, terminations of long-term obligations, reversals, refunds and the processing of other contract-related declarations and inquiries. Both one-off contracts and ongoing contractual relationships are covered.

In particular, master data such as name, address and, if applicable, company, contact data such as email address and telephone number, contract and service data such as subject matter of the contract, contract term, order or process number, usage and service data, payment and billing data as well as communication content and history are processed. If necessary, we also process data that is disclosed or transmitted to us in the course of carrying out an order.

In addition, we process the data to protect our rights and to fulfill legal obligations. This includes, in particular, commercial and tax retention obligations, documentation obligations and, if necessary, proof and accountability obligations. In addition, processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests in proper business management, internal administration, risk management and IT security as well as in protecting our business operations and our contractual partners from misuse and threats to data, secrets and other legal interests. This may also include the involvement of external service providers such as IT and telecommunications providers, transport and logistics companies, payment service providers, banks, tax and legal advisors or other vicarious agents, to the extent that this is necessary for the execution of the contract or to fulfill legal obligations.

Personal data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary to fulfill the contract, to carry out pre-contractual measures, to protect legitimate interests or to fulfill legal obligations. We provide separate information about further processing, in particular for marketing purposes, in this data protection declaration.

We inform the contractual partners which data is required in individual cases as part of the data collection, for example in online forms through appropriate labeling or in personal contact.

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the aforementioned purposes and there are no legal retention requirements. Statutory retention periods, particularly under commercial and tax law, may require longer storage. We delete data that was transmitted as part of a specific order after the order has been completed and any retention periods have expired, provided there are no further legal or contractual obligations to store it.

The legal basis for processing is Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR for the implementation of pre-contractual measures and to fulfill the respective contractual relationship as well as Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter c GDPR for the fulfillment of legal obligations. To the extent that processing is based on legitimate interests, it is carried out on the basis of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. To the extent that processing is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f of the GDPR, it is carried out to protect our legitimate interests in proper and efficient business organization, the internal administration and documentation of business transactions, the enforcement and defense of legal claims, ensuring IT and data security, preventing misuse and fraud, and the economic management and further development of our business operations.

Web analysis, monitoring and optimization
Web analysis (also referred to as “reach measurement”) is used to evaluate the flow of visitors to our online offering and can include behavior, interests or demographic information about visitors, such as age or gender, as pseudonymous values. With the help of reach analysis, we can, for example, identify at what time our online offering or its functions or content are used most frequently, or invite them to reuse it. It is also possible for us to understand which areas require optimization.

In addition to web analysis, we can also use testing procedures to test and optimize different versions of our online offering or its components.

Unless otherwise stated below, profiles, i.e. data summarized into a usage process, can be created for these purposes and information can be stored in a browser or in a device and then read out. The information collected includes, in particular, websites visited and elements used there, as well as technical information, such as the browser used, the computer system used and information about times of use. If users have agreed to the collection of their location data to us or to the providers of the services we use, the processing of location data is also possible.

In addition, the users' IP addresses are stored. However, we use an IP masking process (i.e. pseudonymization by shortening the IP address) to protect users. In general, as part of web analysis, A/B testing and optimization, no clear user data (such as email addresses or names) is stored, but rather pseudonyms. This means that we and the providers of the software used do not know the actual identity of the users, but only the information stored in their profiles for the purpose of the respective procedures.

Notes on legal bases: If we ask users for their consent to the use of third-party providers, the legal basis for data processing is consent. Otherwise, the user data will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in efficient, economical and recipient-friendly services). In this context, we would also like to draw your attention to the information on the use of cookies in this data protection declaration.

- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to measure and analyze the use of our online offering based on a pseudonymous user identification number. This identification number does not contain any unique data such as names or email addresses. It is used to assign analysis information to a device in order to identify which content users have accessed within one or different usage processes, which search terms they have used, which they have accessed again or which have interacted with our online offering. The time of use and its duration are also stored, as are the sources of the users who refer to our online offering and technical aspects of their devices and browsers.
Pseudonymous profiles of users are created with information from the use of various devices, whereby cookies can be used. Google Analytics does not log or store individual IP addresses for EU users. However, Analytics provides coarse geographic location data by deriving the following metadata from IP addresses: city (and the city's derived latitude and longitude), continent, country, region, subcontinent (and ID-based counterparts). For EU data traffic, IP address data is used exclusively for this derivation of geolocation data before being immediately deleted. They are not logged, are not accessible and are not used for any other purposes. When Google Analytics collects metrics, all IP queries are performed on EU-based servers before passing traffic to Analytics servers for processing; Service provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 Letter a) GDPR); Website: https://marketingplatform.google.com/intl/de/about/analytics/; Security measures: IP masking (pseudonymization of the IP address); Data protection declaration: https://policies.google.com/privacy; Order processing contract: https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms/; Basis for third-country transfers: Data Privacy Framework (DPF), standard contractual clauses (https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms); Objection option (opt-out): Opt-out plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de, Settings for the display of advertising: https://myadcenter.google.com/personalizationoff.

- Google Tag Manager: We use Google Tag Manager, software from Google that allows us to manage so-called website tags centrally via a user interface. Tags are small pieces of code on our website that are used to record and analyze visitor activity. This technology helps us to improve our website and the content offered on it. The Google Tag Manager itself does not create user profiles, does not store cookies with user profiles and does not carry out any independent analyses. Its function is limited to simplifying and making more efficient the integration and management of tools and services that we use on our website. Nevertheless, when using the Google Tag Manager, the user's IP address is transmitted to Google, which is necessary for technical reasons in order to implement the services we use. Cookies can also be set. However, this data processing only takes place if services are integrated via the Tag Manager. For more detailed information about these services and their data processing, we refer to the further sections of this data protection declaration; Service provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 Letter a) GDPR); Website: https://marketingplatform.google.com; Data protection declaration: https://policies.google.com/privacy; Order processing contract:

Presences in social networks (social media)
We maintain online presences within social networks and process user data in this context in order to communicate with active users there or to offer information about us.

We would like to point out that user data can be processed outside the European Union. This can result in risks for users because, for example, it could make it more difficult to enforce user rights.

Furthermore, user data within social networks is usually processed for market research and advertising purposes. For example, usage profiles can be created based on usage behavior and the resulting interests of users. The latter may in turn be used to place advertisements inside and outside the networks that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. Therefore, cookies are usually stored on the users' computers, in which the usage behavior and interests of the users are stored. In addition, data can also be stored in the usage profiles regardless of the devices used by the users (especially if they are members of the respective platforms and logged in there).

For a detailed description of the respective forms of processing and the options for objection (opt-out), we refer to the data protection declarations and information provided by the operators of the respective networks.

In the case of requests for information and the assertion of the rights of those affected, we would also like to point out that these can most effectively be asserted with the providers. Only the latter have access to user data and can take appropriate measures and provide information directly. If you still need help, you can contact us.

Plug-ins and embedded functions and content
We incorporate functional and content elements into our online offering that are obtained from the servers of their respective providers (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”). This can be, for example, graphics, videos or city maps (hereinafter referred to as “content”).

The integration always requires that the third party providers of this content process the users' IP address, as without an IP address they would not be able to send the content to their browser. The IP address is therefore required to display this content or functions. We strive to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. Third-party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as “web beacons”) for statistical or marketing purposes. The “pixel tags” can be used to evaluate information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous information can also be stored in cookies on the user's device and may contain, among other things, technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, the time of visit and other information about the use of our online offering, but can also be linked to such information from other sources.

Notes on legal bases: If we ask users for their consent to the use of third-party providers, the legal basis for data processing is permission. Otherwise, the user data will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in efficient, economical and recipient-friendly services). In this context, we would also like to draw your attention to the information on the use of cookies in this data protection declaration.

- Types of data processed: Usage data (e.g. page views and length of stay, click paths, usage intensity and frequency, device types and operating systems used, interactions with content and functions). Meta, communication and procedural data (e.g. IP addresses, times, identification numbers, people involved).

- Google Fonts (obtained from Google server): Obtaining fonts (and symbols) for the purpose of technically secure, maintenance-free and efficient use of fonts and symbols with regard to topicality and loading times, their uniform presentation and consideration of possible licensing restrictions. The font provider is informed of the user's IP address so that the fonts can be made available in the user's browser. In addition, technical data (language settings, screen resolution, operating system, hardware used) is transmitted that is necessary for the provision of the fonts depending on the devices used and the technical environment. This data can be processed on a server of the font provider in the USA - When you visit our online offering, the users' browsers send their browser HTTP requests to the Google Fonts Web API (i.e. a software interface for retrieving the fonts). The Google Fonts Web API provides users with the Google Fonts Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and then the fonts specified in the CCS. These HTTP requests include (1) the IP address used by the respective user to access the Internet, (2) the requested URL on the Google server and (3) the HTTP headers, including the user agent that describes the browser and operating system versions of the website visitors, as well as the referral URL (i.e. the web page on which the Google font is to be displayed). IP addresses are neither logged nor stored on Google servers and are not analyzed. The Google Fonts Web API logs details of HTTP requests (requested URL, user agent and referral URL). Access to this data is restricted and strictly controlled. The requested URL identifies the font families for which the user wants to load fonts. This data is logged so that Google can determine how often a particular font family is requested. With the Google Fonts Web API, the user agent needs to customize the font that is generated for each browser type. The user agent is primarily logged for debugging and used to generate aggregated usage statistics that measure the popularity of font families. These aggregate usage statistics are published on the Google Fonts Analytics page. Finally, the referral URL is logged so that the data can be used for production maintenance and an aggregated report on the top integrations based on the number of font requests can be generated. Google says it does not use any of the information collected by Google Fonts to create end-user profiles or serve targeted ads; Service provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; Legal basis: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR); Website: https://fonts.google.com/; Data protection declaration: https://policies.google.com/privacy; Basis for third country transfers: Data Privacy Framework (DPF).
