Server Log Files

You can visit our website without providing any personal information. Each time our website is accessed, usage data is transmitted by your internet browser and stored in server log files. These files may include the name of the accessed page, date and time of the request, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider. This data is used exclusively to ensure trouble-free operation of the website and to improve our offering. It is not possible to associate this data with a specific person.


Purpose of Data Processing

The purposes of processing personal data include:

  • Making our services more user-friendly, efficient and secure

  • Analyzing the use of our website and visitor behavior

  • Displaying personalized advertisements on other websites

  • Generating conversion statistics

  • Maintaining our system and resolving technical errors

Further purposes of data processing are listed in the respective sections of this privacy policy.
Processing is based on Section 15 (3) of the German Telemedia Act (TMG) and Article 6 (1)(f) of the GDPR due to our legitimate interest in achieving the above purposes.
Since the content of this website also refers to services of Akia Web & Software Solutions GmbH i.G., data processing also serves to carry out pre-contractual measures requested by the data subject and to fulfill contractual obligations under Article 6 (1)(b) GDPR.


Liability for Content

As service providers, we are responsible for our own content on these pages in accordance with general legislation pursuant to § 7 (1) TMG.
According to §§ 8 to 10 TMG, however, we are not obligated to monitor third-party information transmitted or stored or to investigate circumstances that indicate illegal activity. Obligations to remove or block the use of information under general laws remain unaffected.
Liability in this respect is only possible from the time of knowledge of a specific legal violation. If we become aware of any such legal violations, we will remove the content in question immediately.


Liability for Links

Our website contains links to external third-party websites over whose content we have no influence. Therefore, we cannot accept any liability for this external content. The respective provider or operator of the linked sites is always responsible for their content.
The linked sites were checked for possible legal violations at the time the links were created. No illegal content was identified at that time. Permanent monitoring of the linked pages is not reasonable without concrete indications of a legal violation. Upon becoming aware of such legal violations, we will remove these links immediately.


Copyright

The content and works created by the website operator on these pages are subject to German copyright law.
Reproduction, editing, distribution and any kind of use outside the limits of copyright law require the written consent of the respective author or creator.
Downloads and copies of this site are permitted for private, non-commercial use only.
If content on this site was not created by the operator, the copyrights of third parties are respected and such content is marked accordingly. Should you still become aware of a copyright violation, please inform us. Upon notification of such violations, we will remove the content immediately.


Collection, Processing, and Use of Personal Data

We collect personal data (individual details about the personal or factual circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person) only to the extent that you voluntarily provide it.
Processing and use of your personal data takes place in order to fulfill and process your order as well as respond to your inquiries.
For information regarding storage duration, see the section “Storage Duration” below.


Disclosure of Personal Data

Your personal data will not be disclosed to third parties without your explicit consent.
Exceptions apply only to our service partners needed to fulfill or process contractual obligations. In such cases, we strictly observe the provisions of the German Federal Data Protection Act.
The scope of data transmission is limited to the minimum necessary.


Use of Cookies

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files stored in your web browser or by your browser on your computer system. When a user visits a website, a cookie can be stored on the user’s device. This cookie contains a unique string of characters that allows the browser to be identified on future visits.

We use cookies to make our services more user-friendly, efficient, and secure.
Cookies also enable us to recognize your browser even after switching pages and to offer you certain features. Some features of our website may not function without cookies.
Additionally, we use cookies to analyze the browsing behavior of visitors and to display targeted, interest-based advertising on other websites.

The processing of this data is based on § 15 (3) TMG and Article 6 (1)(f) GDPR due to our legitimate interest in the above purposes.
The data collected in this way is pseudonymized using technical measures. An association with your identity is no longer possible.
You have the right to object to this data processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation.

Cookies are stored on your computer, so you have full control over their use.
You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your browser.
Already stored cookies can be deleted at any time. However, disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

For information on managing cookies in common browsers:

Google Analytics We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). The data processing serves the purpose of analyzing this website and its visitors. On behalf of the website operator, Google will use the information obtained to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide other services related to website usage and internet usage.

The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google. Google Analytics uses cookies that enable the analysis of your website usage. The information generated by these cookies about your use of this website is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymization is activated on this website. This means that your IP address will first be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

Data transfers to the USA are subject to an adequacy decision by the European Commission. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR, stemming from our legitimate interest in a demand-oriented and targeted design of the website. You have the right to object to this processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser settings accordingly. However, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website in full. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at: [https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en].

To prevent data collection by Google Analytics across devices, you can set an opt-out cookie. This will prevent the future collection of your data when visiting this website. The opt-out must be performed on all systems used. If you click here, the opt-out cookie will be set: [Disable Google Analytics].

Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at: https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/en.html and https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Google Ads Conversion Tracking We use the online advertising program “Google Ads” and conversion tracking provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your computer. These cookies have limited validity, do not contain any personal data, and are therefore not used for personal identification.

If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to that page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked across websites of different Ads customers.

The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics. This allows us to know the total number of users who clicked on our ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information that personally identifies users.

Processing is based on Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR due to our legitimate interest in targeted advertising and analysis of the effectiveness and efficiency of this advertising. You have the right to object to this processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings accordingly. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. In addition, you can deactivate personalized advertising for you in the Google advertising settings. Instructions can be found at: https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en

You can also disable the use of cookies by third-party providers by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative deactivation page at: https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/
