Access data includes: name of the accessed web page, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful retrieval, browser type and version, the user’s operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address and the requesting provider. The provider uses the log data only for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operation, security and optimisation of the site. However, the provider reserves the right to review the log data afterwards if there is a concrete indication of lawful-suspicion of unlawful use.
Handling of personal data
Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e. details that can be traced back to an individual. This includes name, email address or telephone number. Data on preferences, hobbies, memberships or websites someone has viewed also count as personal data. Personal data is collected, used and shared by the provider only where legally permitted or where users consent to the collection.
Contacting us
When contacting the provider (for example via the contact form or email), the user’s details are stored for processing the enquiry and in case follow-up questions arise.
Embedding of third-party services and content
This site may include third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, map material from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites. This always requires that the providers of this content (hereinafter “third-party providers”) perceive the users’ IP address, because without it they could not send the content to the user’s browser. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. We strive to use only content whose providers use the IP address solely to deliver it. However, we have no influence if third-party providers store the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. As far as we know, we inform users about this.
