In absence of such an adequacy decision by the European Commission, the personal transfer may only be transferred to a third country if appropriate safeguards in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR are provided or one of the conditions pursuant to Art. 49 GDPR is met.

II. Data processing on our website

When you use the website, we collect information that you provide yourself. In addition, during your visit to the wbsite, we automatically collect certain information about your use of the website. In terms of data protection law, the IP address also applies as personal data. An IP address is assigned to each Internet-connected device by the ISP so that it can send and receive data.

1. Processing of server log files
In the purely informative use of our website, the first step is to automatically store general information (that is, not via registration) that your browser sends to our server. These include by default: browser type / version, OS used, page visited, the previously visited page (referrer URL), IP address, date and time of the server request, and HTTP status code.

The processing is for the protection of our legitimate interests and is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. This processing is for the technical management and security of the website. The stored data will be deleted after four weeks, unless there is a justified suspicion of illegal use on the basis of concrete indications and further examination and processing of the information is necessary for this reason.

We are unable to identify you as a data subject based on the information stored. The Art. 15 to 22 GDPR are therefore not applicable in accordance with. Art. 11 (2) GDPR, unless you provide additional information to enable you to exercise your rights under these articles.

2. Cookies

We use buttons on our website for social networks and comparable offers from third parties (hereinafter referred to as “plugin”).

IV. Data security

We use the widespread SSL method (Secure Socket Layer) with the highest encryption level supported by your browser. Usually this is a 2048-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 2048-bit encryption, we will instead use the maximum encryption possible with your browser. You can tell whether an individual site on our website is encrypted by the closed key or lock symbol in the lower status bar of your browser.

Apart from this, we rely on appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data against random or wilful manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or against unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with the newest technological developments.
