Конфиденциальность данных

It is important to us to protect your personal data during collection, processing and use when you visit our website.

We treat your personal data confidentially and compliant with data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy.

1 Collection and processing of (personal) data

1.1 Logging of non-personal data

You may visit our website without registering or providing information about yourself. Each time a user accesses our website or when a file is called, data about this process is automatically collected and stored in a log file. In detail, the following data record is stored for each retrieval:
Name of the retrieved file;

  • Date and time of retrieval;
  • Transferred data volume;
  • Notification whether retrieval was successful;
  • Description of the type of web browser used;
  • Requesting domain.

IP addresses are not registered completely but shortened before they are stored. Therefore, tracking to a certain computer is not possible. Storage only serves internal system-related and statistical purposes. We use this information to improve our website continuously, to update it and, consequently, to increase its attractiveness.
We do not combine logged data with other data sources, in particular data allowing identification of a certain person.

1.2 Collection of personal data

Personal data, such as your name, your address, phone number or e-mail address will not be collected unless you provide this information voluntarily, e.g. as part of your desired registration, a survey, a prize draw, to execute a contract or when you request information.

We inform you that there may be security gabs when transmitting data over the internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail). Complete protection of your data against access by third parties is not possible.

1.3 Use of personal data

Insofar as you have provided your personal data to us, we only use it for technical administration of our websites and to fulfil your wishes and meet your requirements, in particular to execute the contract concluded with you and to answer your request.

If you send us inquiries using our contact form, we will store the information you specified in the contact form, including contact details you provided, to process the request and for any related future questions.

We will not forward, sell or otherwise transfer your personal data to third parties, unless

  • it should be necessary in order to execute the contract. For example, it may be required to forward your address and purchase order to our suppliers when you order products;
  • this might be necessary for invoicing purposes;
  • you have explicitly consented to the disclosure of your data.

You are entitled to withdraw such content any time with future effect. Your personal data will be deleted and/or blocked

  • if you withdraw your consent to storage of your data;
  • if knowledge of this data to fulfil the purpose intended with storage of this data is not longer necessary or storage of this data is prohibited for any other legal reasons.

2 Cookies and web analytics tools

2.1 Miscellaneous

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that make it possible to store user-specific information on the user’s device while they are using the website. Cookies allow us, in particular, to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of the websites, to analyze the behaviour of the page usage, but also to make our offer more customer-friendly.

Most cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted when you close the website. Other cookies are stored on your end device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser when you visit our website the next time.

If you do not want us to recognize information about your computer, please configure your Internet browser to delete cookies from your computer hard drive, block all cookies or warn you before a cookie is stored. Probably, you will not be able to access all functions of our website in this case.

If you leave our website by clicking on a link or banner ad and thus open a third-party website, it might be that cookies are also set by the addressees of the clicked landing page. We are not legally responsible for these cookies. Please refer to the relevant privacy policies to learn about the use of such cookies and the information stored in them by our advertising partners.

2.2 Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. In case of activation of the IP anonymization, Google will truncate/anonymize the last octet of the IP address for Member States of the European Union as well as for other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address is sent to and shortened by Google servers in the USA. On behalf of the website provider Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website provider. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. Furthermore you can prevent Google’s collection and use of data (cookies and IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB.

You can refuse the use of Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set on the computer, which prevents the future collection of your data when visiting this website:

Further information concerning the terms and conditions of use and data privacy can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html or at https://www.google.de/intl/en_uk/policies/. Please note that on this website, Google Analytics code is supplemented by “anonymizeIp” to ensure an anonymized collection of IP addresses (so called IP-masking).

2.3 Google Maps

This website uses the map service Google Maps via API. This service is provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. To use the functions of Google Maps storage of your IP address is required. This information will usually be transferred to, and stored on, a server in the USA. The provider of this website has no influence on this data transmission.

For further information, please see Google’s Privacy Policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/

2.4 Google AdWords and Google conversion tracking

This site uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).

As part of Google AdWords, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click an ad delivered by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your computer. Cookies are small text files that are stored locally in the cache of the user’s browser. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification of the user. Should the user visit certain pages of the website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the website can tell that the user clicked on the ad and proceeded to that page.

Each Google AdWords advertiser has a different cookie. Thus, cookies cannot be tracked using the website of an Adwords advertiser. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for the Adwords advertisers who have opted for conversion tracking. The Adwords advertisers can find out the total number of users who have clicked on their ad and were directed to the page with a conversion tracking tag. The advertisers do not, however, obtain any information that can be used to identify users personally. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can refuse by simply deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie via your internet browser settings. In doing so, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

For more information about Google AdWords and Google conversion tracking, please see Google’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/

You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept or reject a cookie. Alternatively, your browser can be configured to automatically accept cookies under certain conditions or to always reject them, or to automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. The disabling of cookies may limit your ability to use some of the functions of this website.

2.5 Demographic Data Collection by Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics’ demographic features. This allows reports to be generated containing statements about the age, gender, and interests of site visitors. This data comes from Google’s interest-based advertising as well as visitor data from third-party providers. This collected data cannot be attributed to any specific person. You can disable this feature at any time by adjusting the ads settings in your Google account, or you can forbid the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the section “Refusal of data collection.”
