Privacy Policy

When you visit websites these days, certain information is automatically created and stored, including on this website.

When you visit our website, as you are doing now, our web server (the computer on which this website is stored) automatically saves data such as your device’s IP address, the addresses of the subpages visited, details about your browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Edge, etc.), and the date and time. We do not use this data and generally do not share it with third parties. However, we cannot rule out the possibility that this data will be viewed in the event of illegal activity.

Personal data that you transmit to us electronically on this website, such as name, email address, address or other personal information when transmitting an email, together with the time and IP address, will be used by us only for the specified purpose, stored securely and not passed on to third parties.

We therefore use your personal data only for communication with those visitors who expressly request contact and for the processing of the services and products offered on this website. We will not share your personal data without your consent, but we cannot rule out the possibility that this data will be viewed in the event of illegal activity.

If you send us personal information via email – outside of this website – we cannot guarantee the secure transmission and protection of your data. We recommend that you never send confidential information unencrypted via email.

You generally have the right to information, rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability, revocation, and objection. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or that your data protection rights have otherwise been violated in any way, you can file a complaint with the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority, whose website can be found at https://www.dsb.gv.at/.

We use https to securely transmit data over the internet. By using TLS (Transport Layer Security), an encryption protocol for secure data transmission over the internet, we can ensure the protection of confidential data. You can recognize the use of this data transmission security by the small lock symbol in the top left corner of the browser and the use of the https scheme as part of our internet address.

Our website uses HTTP cookies to store user-specific data.

A cookie is a short data packet that is exchanged between a web browser and a web server, but is completely meaningless for the web server and only becomes meaningful for the web application, e.g. an online shop, such as the contents of a virtual shopping cart.

There are two types of cookies: first-party cookies are created by our website, and third-party cookies are created by other websites (e.g. Google Analytics).

There are three categories of cookies: strictly necessary cookies to ensure basic functions of the website, functional cookies to ensure the performance of the website and targeted cookies to improve the user experience.

We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. They allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

If you do not want this, you can set your browser so that it informs you about the setting of cookies and you only allow this in individual cases.

You can delete cookies already on your computer or disable cookies at any time. The process varies depending on the browser. The best way to find instructions is to search for “delete cookies chrome” or “disable cookies chrome” in the case of a Chrome browser, or replace the word “chrome” with the name of your browser, e.g., edge, firefox, or safari.

If you generally do not allow us to use cookies, i.e. deactivate them via your browser settings, some functions and pages may not work as expected.

Integration of third-party services and content

Third-party content may be integrated into this website, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds, or graphics from other websites. This always presupposes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”) recognize the user’s IP address. Without the IP address, they would not be able to send the content to the user’s browser. The IP address is therefore necessary for the display of this content. We endeavor to only use content whose providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, we have no influence over whether the third-party providers save the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. If we are aware of this, we will inform users.

We use Google Analytics from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) on this website to statistically evaluate visitor data. Google Analytics uses targeted cookies.

Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Our goal, as defined by the GDPR, is to improve our offering and our website. Because the privacy of our users is important to us, user data is pseudonymized. Data processing is based on the legal provisions of Section 96 (3) of the Telecommunications Act (TKG) and Article 6 (1) (a) (consent) and/or (f) (legitimate interest) of the GDPR.

Website visitors can prevent Google Analytics from using their data by using the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, dc.js) opt-out browser add-on.

You can prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

We have entered into a direct customer agreement with Google for the use of Google Analytics by accepting the “Data Processing Addendum” in Google Analytics.

We have implemented Google Analytics IP address anonymization on this website. This feature was developed by Google to enable this website to comply with applicable data protection regulations and recommendations from local data protection authorities when these prohibit the storage of the full IP address. IP anonymization or masking occurs as soon as the IP addresses arrive in the Google Analytics data collection network and before the data is stored or processed.

More information about IP anonymization can be found at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2763052?hl=de.

We use Google Fonts from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) on our website. Google Fonts are used without authentication, and no cookies are sent to the Google Fonts API. If you have a Google account, none of your Google account data will be transmitted to Google when you use Google Fonts. Google only records the use of CSS and the fonts used and stores this data securely. You can find more information on these and other questions at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq.
