400;\">Security Precautions<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We take appropriate technical and organisational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in order to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The measures include, in particular, safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as access to, input, transmission, securing and separation of the data. In addition, we have established procedures to ensure that data subjects&#8217; rights are respected, that data is erased, and that we are prepared to respond to data threats rapidly. Furthermore, we take the protection of personal data into account as early as the development or selection of hardware, software and service providers, in accordance with the principle of privacy by design and privacy by default.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Masking of the IP address: If IP addresses are processed by us or by the service providers and technologies used and the processing of a complete IP address is not necessary, the IP address is shortened (also referred to as &#8220;IP masking&#8221;). In this process, the last two digits or the last part of the IP address after a full stop are removed or replaced by wildcards. The masking of the IP address is intended to prevent the identification of a person by means of their IP address or to make such identification significantly more difficult.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Securing online connections through TLS\/SSL encryption technology (HTTPS): To protect the data of users transmitted via our online services from unauthorized access, we employ TLS\/SSL encryption technology. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) are the cornerstones of secure data transmission on the internet. These technologies encrypt the information that is transferred between the website or app and the user&#8217;s browser (or between two servers), thereby safeguarding the data from unauthorized access. TLS, as the more advanced and secure version of SSL, ensures that all data transmissions conform to the highest security standards. When a website is secured with an SSL\/TLS certificate, this is indicated by the display of HTTPS in the URL. This serves as an indicator to users that their data is being securely and encryptedly transmitted.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">International data transfers<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data Processing in Third Countries: If we process data in a third country (i.e., outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)), or if the processing is done within the context of using third-party services or the disclosure or transfer of data to other individuals, entities, or companies, this is only done in accordance with legal requirements. If the data protection level in the third country has been recognized by an adequacy decision (Article 45 GDPR), this serves as the basis for data transfer. Otherwise, data transfers only occur if the data protection level is otherwise ensured, especially through standard contractual clauses (Article 46 (2)(c) GDPR), explicit consent, or in cases of contractual or legally required transfers (Article 49 (1) GDPR). Furthermore, we provide you with the basis of third-country transfers from individual third-country providers, with adequacy decisions primarily serving as the foundation. &#8220;Information regarding third-country transfers and existing adequacy decisions can be obtained from the information provided by the EU Commission: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/commission.europa.eu\/law\/law-topic\/data-protection\/international-dimension-data-protection_en\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/commission.europa.eu\/law\/law-topic\/data-protection\/international-dimension-data-protection_en.<\/span><\/a><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data Retention and Deletion<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We delete personal data that we process in accordance with legal provisions as soon as the underlying consents are revoked or no further legal bases for processing exist. This applies to cases where the original purpose of processing no longer applies or the data is no longer needed. Exceptions to this rule exist if statutory obligations or special interests require a longer retention or archiving of data.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In particular, data that must be retained for commercial or tax law reasons, or whose storage is necessary for legal prosecution or for protecting the rights of other natural or legal persons, must be archived accordingly. Our privacy policy may contain additional information on the retention and deletion of data specifically applicable to certain processing activities.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where there are multiple statements regarding the retention period or deletion deadlines of a date, the longest period always applies.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a period does not expressly start on a specific date and lasts at least one year, it automatically begins at the end of the calendar year in which the event triggering the period occurred.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data that is no longer stored for its originally intended purpose but due to legal requirements or other reasons is processed exclusively for reasons justifying their retention.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rights of Data Subjects<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rights of the Data Subjects under the GDPR: As data subject, you are entitled to various rights under the GDPR, which arise in particular from Articles 15 to 21 of the GDPR:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Right to Object: You have the right, on grounds arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of your personal data which is based on letter (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

This category of data may include texts, images, videos, audio files, and other multimedia content published across various platforms and media. Content data are not limited to the content itself but also include metadata providing information about the content, such as tags, descriptions, authorship details, and publication dates.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Controller:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8220;Controller&#8221; means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Inventory data:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Inventory data encompass essential information required for the identification and management of contractual partners, user accounts, profiles, and similar assignments. These data may include, among others, personal and demographic details such as names, contact information (addresses, phone numbers, email addresses), birth dates, and specific identifiers (user IDs). Inventory data form the foundation for any formal interaction between individuals and services, facilities, or systems, by enabling unique assignment and communication.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Meta, communication and process data:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Meta-, communication, and procedural data are categories that contain information about how data is processed, transmitted, and managed. Meta-data, also known as data about data, include information that describes the context, origin, and structure of other data. They can include details about file size, creation date, the author of a document, and modification histories. Communication data capture the exchange of information between users across various channels, such as email traffic, call logs, messages in social networks, and chat histories, including the involved parties, timestamps, and transmission paths. Procedural data describe the processes and operations within systems or organisations, including workflow documentations, logs of transactions and activities, and audit logs used for tracking and verifying procedures.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Personal Data:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8220;personal data&#8221; means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (&#8220;data subject&#8221;); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Processing:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The term &#8220;processing&#8221; covers a wide range and practically every handling of data, be it collection, evaluation, storage, transmission or erasure.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Profiles with user-related information:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The processing of &#8220;profiles with user-related information&#8221;, or &#8220;profiles&#8221; for short, includes any kind of automated processing of personal data that consists of using these personal data to analyse, evaluate or predict certain personal aspects relating to a natural person (depending on the type of profiling, this may include different information concerning demographics, behaviour and interests, such as interaction with websites and their content, etc.) (e.g. interests in certain content or products, click behaviour on a website or location). Cookies and web beacons are often used for profiling purposes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Usage data:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Usage data refer to information that captures how users interact with digital products, services, or platforms. These data encompass a wide range of information that demonstrates how users utilise applications, which features they prefer, how long they spend on specific pages, and through what paths they navigate an application. Usage data can also include the frequency of use, timestamps of activities, IP addresses, device information, and location data. They are particularly valuable for analysing user behaviour, optimising user experiences, personalising content, and improving products or services. Furthermore, usage data play a crucial role in identifying trends, preferences, and potential problem areas within digital offerings\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><b>Web Analytics:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Web Analytics serves the evaluation of visitor traffic of online services and can determine their behavior or interests in certain information, such as content of websites. With the help of web analytics, website owners, for example, can recognize at what time visitors visit their website and what content they are interested in. This enables them, for example, to better adapt the content of their websites to the needs of their visitors. For the purposes of web analytics , pseudonymous cookies and web beacons are often used to recognize returning visitors and thus obtain more precise analyses of the use of an online service.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Privacy Policy Preamble With the following privacy policy we would like to inform you which types of your personal data (hereinafter also abbreviated as &#8220;data&#8221;) we process for which purposes and in which scope.
