This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file.
In the case of mere informational use of the website, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise transmit information to us, we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. The following information is collected without your intervention and stored until automated deletion:
- IP address of the requesting computer,

VII. Storage period and data deletion
Your personal data will be deleted in particular as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed. Hereafter, the data will be erased unless storage is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the processing is subject under the law of the Union or the Member States to which the controller is subject. Such a legal obligation is represented by the statutory retention obligations, which are, for example, 10 years (for accounting and payroll data) or 6 years (for commercial correspondence). During the period of the retention obligations, the data is blocked, after which it is deleted.
VIII Contact and communication
For questions of any kind, we offer you the opportunity to contact us via a form provided on the website. In doing so, the provision of a valid e-mail address is required so that we know from whom the inquiry originates and in order to be able to answer it. Further information can be provided voluntarily. Data processing for the purpose of contacting us is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) DSGVO on the basis of your voluntarily given consent.

We delete your data in this regard when the purpose for which you provided us with your data is fulfilled or completed and we are not entitled or obligated to further storage for legal reasons.
IX. Other processing based on a legitimate interest

In some areas of our website, you have the option of giving such explicit consent. In doing so, we will inform you in each case of the purpose for which the data will be processed in the event of your consent and how long we will store this personal data.

(1) If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you may revoke it at any time. Such revocation will affect the permissibility of the processing of your personal data after you have expressed it to us.

This is the case if the processing is not necessary, in particular, for the performance of a contract with you, which is presented by us in each case in the following description of the functions. When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will review the merits of the case and either discontinue or adjust the data processing or show you our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.
(3) Of course, you can object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of advertising and data analysis at any time.

Social media plug-ins from Facebook are used on our website to make their use more personal. For this purpose, we use the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button. This is an offer from Facebook.
If you call up a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection with the servers of Facebook.

This information, including your IP address, is transmitted from your browser directly to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.
If you are logged into Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to our website directly to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, e.g. confirm the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on Facebook and displayed to their Facebook friends.
Facebook may use this information for the purposes of advertising, market research and demand-oriented design of the Facebook pages. For this purpose, Facebook creates usage, interest and relationship profiles, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide other services associated with the use of Facebook.
If you do not want Facebook to assign the data collected via our website to your Facebook account, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website.
