If consent has been requested, processing will be carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1 ) (a) GDPR / Art. 31 revDSG and Section 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract required by data protection law, which guarantees that the personal data of our website visitors will only be processed according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR (Art. 28) / revDSG (Art. 9).

Below you can find out where and why we collect personal data from you.

Each time you visit our website, we automatically collect data and information from your device's system and store it in so-called server log files. This data refers to an identified or identifiable natural person (here: website visitor). The data is automatically transferred by your browser when you visit our website. The following information is recorded:

• The time of access to our website (request to the server of the host provider),
• URL of the website from which you accessed our website,
• the operating system you are using,
• Type and version of the browser you use,
• IP address of your computer (The IP address is stored anonymously).

The purpose of this processing is to make our website accessible from your device and to enable our website to display correctly on your device or in your browser. Furthermore, the data helps us optimize our website and ensure the security of our systems.

The legal basis for processing is Art. 6 (1 ) (f) GDPR / Art. 31 (1) revDSG . We have a legitimate interest in presenting you with a website optimized for your browser and enabling communication between our server and your device. For the latter, the processing of your IP address is particularly necessary.

We store this data for one month.

Our website contains one or more contact forms that you can use to contact us electronically. If you contact us using these contact forms, the data entered in the input fields will be processed by us, and you must expressly consent to this processing before submitting your request. If you do not wish this, you can contact us by phone or email instead. If confidential data is involved, we also ask that you do not use our contact forms, as sufficient confidentiality cannot be guaranteed (no end-to-end encryption).

We treat mandatory and voluntary information equally. Mandatory information is necessary to contact you and process your request.

When you send the message, the following data is also saved:

• All data entered in the form
• Date and time of sending

The purpose of processing personal data is to process the contact request and to be able to contact the inquirer to answer the request. The other personal data processed during the submission process serves to prevent misuse of our contact form.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data described here is Art. 6 (1 ) (a) GDPR / Art. 31 (2 ) (b) revDSG . Personal data will only be processed for as long as necessary to provide the function, and you naturally have the option of revoking your consent at any time.

The legal basis for the use of OpenStreetMap is Art. 6 (1 ) (f) / Art. 31 (1) revDSG (revised German Data Protection Act ).
