Server data
For technical reasons, in particular to ensure a secure and stable Internet presence, data is transmitted by your Internet browser to us or to our web space provider. These so-called server log files are used to collect, among other things, the type and version of your Internet browser, the operating system, the website from which you accessed our website (referrer URL), the website(s) of our website that you visit, the date and time of the respective access as well as the IP address of the Internet connection from which the use of our website takes place.
The data collected in this way is stored temporarily, but not together with other data about you.
This storage takes place on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality and security of our website.
The data is deleted again after seven days at the latest, unless further storage is required for evidence purposes. Otherwise, the data is exempt from deletion in whole or in part until final clarification of an incident.

If the processing does not serve to initiate or process a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
These session cookies are deleted when you close your Internet browser.

We delete the data once the contract has been fully processed, but must observe the retention periods under tax and commercial law.

Matomo (formerly: PIWIK)
We use Matomo (formerly: „PIWIK“) on our website. This is an open source software with which we can analyze the use of our website. It processes your IP address, the website(s) of our website that you visit, the website from which you switched to our website (referrer URL), the time you spend on our website and the frequency with which you visit one of our websites.
To collect this data, Matomo stores a cookie on your end device via your Internet browser. This cookie is valid for one week.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis and optimization of our website.
However, we use Matomo with the anonymization function „Automatically Anonymize Visitor IPs“. This anonymization function shortens your IP address by two bytes, making it impossible to assign it to you or to the Internet connection you are using.
If you do not agree to this processing, you have the option of preventing the storage of cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. You can find more information on this above under „Cookies“.
You also have the option of ending the analysis of your usage behavior by opting out. When you confirm the link, a cookie is stored on your end device via your Internet browser, which prevents further analysis.
