SJ Publishing Websites is used to reference any of our websites you open

such as Chatterdesigners.com

in your browser

We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise.
Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of
the SJ Publishing Websites. The use of the Internet pages of the SJ
Publishing Websites is possible without any indication of personal data;
however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via
our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the
processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis
for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail
address or telephone number of a data subject shall always be inline
with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance
with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to the
SJ Publishing Websites. By means of this data protection declaration, our
enterprise would like to inform the general public of the nature, scope,
and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process.
Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this data protection
declaration, of the rights to which they are entitled.
As the controller, the SJ Publishing Websites has implemented numerous
technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete
protection of personal data processed through this website. However,
Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so
absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data
subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means,
e.g. by telephone.

Definitions
The data protection declaration of the SJ Publishing Websites is based on
the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General
Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should
be legible and understandable for the general public, as well as our
customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first
explain the terminology used.
In this data protection declaration, we use, inter alia, the following
terms:
a) Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or
identifiable natural person (“data subject”). 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.
b) Data subject
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose
personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the
processing.
c) Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on
personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated
means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage,
adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by
transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or
combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the
aim of limiting their processing in the future.
e) Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data
consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal
aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict
aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic
situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability,
behaviour, location or movements.
f) Pseudonymisation
Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that
the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject
without the use of additional information, provided that such additional
information is kept separately and is subject to technical and
organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not
attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Controller or controller responsible for the processing
Controller or controller responsible for the processing is 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; where the purposes and means of such processing are
determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific
criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State
law.
h) Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other
body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
i) Recipient
Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or
another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third
party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data
in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or
Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients; the processing of
those data by those public authorities shall be in compliance with the
applicable data protection rules according to the purposes of the
processing.
j) Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or
body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who,
under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised
to process personal data.
k) Consent
Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and
unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she,
by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to
the processing of personal data relating to him or her.
Name and Address of the controller

Cookies
The Internet pages of the SJ Publishing Websites use cookies. Cookies are
text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.
Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-
called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It
consists of a character string through which Internet pages and servers
can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was
stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differentiate
the individual browser of the dats subject from other Internet browsers
that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized
and identified using the unique cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, the SJ Publishing Websites can provide the
users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be
possible without the cookie setting.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be
optimized with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously
mentioned, to recognize our website users. The purpose of this
recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. The
website user that uses cookies, e.g. does not have to enter access data
each time the website is accessed, because this is taken over by the
website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user’s computer system.
Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop. The
online store remembers the articles that a customer has placed in the
virtual shopping cart via a cookie.
The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through
our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser
used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore,
already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or
other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet
browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the
Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely
usable.
Collection of general data and information
The website of the SJ Publishing Websites collects a series of general
data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the
website. This general data and information are stored in the server log
files. Collected may be (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the
operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which
an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the
sub-websites, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6)
an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service
provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar data and
information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information
technology systems.
When using these general data and information, the SJ Publishing Websites
does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this
information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website
correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its
advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information
technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law
enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal
prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore, the SJ Publishing
Websites analyzes anonymously collected data and information
statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data
security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection
for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log
files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data
subject.
Registration on our website
The data subject has the possibility to register on the website of the
controller with the indication of personal data. Which personal data are
transmitted to the controller is determined by the respective input mask
used for the registration. The personal data entered by the data subject
are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller,
and for his own purposes. The controller may request transfer to one or
more processors (e.g. a parcel service) that also uses personal data for
an internal purpose which is attributable to the controller.
By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address—assigned
by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject—date,
and time of the registration are also stored. The storage of this data
takes place against the background that this is the only way to prevent
the misuse of our services, and, if necessary, to make it possible to
investigate committed offenses. Insofar, the storage of this data is
necessary to secure the controller. This data is not passed on to third
parties unless there is a statutory obligation to pass on the data, or if
the transfer serves the aim of criminal prosecution.
The registration of the data subject, with the voluntary indication of
personal data, is intended to enable the controller to offer the data
subject contents or services that may only be offered to registered users
due to the nature of the matter in question. Registered persons are free
to change the personal data specified during the registration at any
time, or to have them completely deleted from the data stock of the
controller.
The data controller shall, at any time, provide information upon request
to each data subject as to what personal data are stored about the data
subject. In addition, the data controller shall correct or erase personal
data at the request or indication of the data subject, insofar as there
are no statutory storage obligations. The entirety of the controller’s
employees are available to the data subject in this respect as contact
persons.
Subscription to our newsletters
On the website of the SJ Publishing Websites, users are given the
opportunity to subscribe to our enterprise’s newsletter. The input mask
used for this purpose determines what personal data are transmitted, as
well as when the newsletter is ordered from the controller.
The SJ Publishing Websites informs its customers and business partners
regularly by means of a newsletter about enterprise offers. The
enterprise’s newsletter may only be received by the data subject if (1)
the data subject has a valid e-mail address and (2) the data subject
registers for the newsletter shipping. A confirmation e-mail will be sent
to the e-mail address registered by a data subject for the first time for
newsletter shipping, for legal reasons, in the double opt-in procedure.
This confirmation e-mail is used to prove whether the owner of the e-mail
address as the data subject is authorized to receive the newsletter.
During the registration for the newsletter, we also store the IP address
of the computer system assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP)
and used by the data subject at the time of the registration, as well as
the date and time of the registration. The collection of this data is
necessary in order to understand the (possible) misuse of the e-mail
address of a data subject at a later date, and it therefore serves the
aim of the legal protection of the controller.
The personal data collected as part of a registration for the newsletter
will only be used to send our newsletter. In addition, subscribers to the
newsletter may be informed by e-mail, as long as this is necessary for
the operation of the newsletter service or a registration in question, as
this could be the case in the event of modifications to the newsletter
offer, or in the event of a change in technical circumstances. There will
be no transfer of personal data collected by the newsletter service to
third parties. The subscription to our newsletter may be terminated by
the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal
data, which the data subject has given for shipping the newsletter, may
be revoked at any time. For the purpose of revocation of consent, a
corresponding link is found in each newsletter. It is also possible to
unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the website of
the controller, or to communicate this to the controller in a different
way.
Newsletter-Tracking
The newsletter of the SJ Publishing Websites contains so-called tracking
pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in such e-mails,
which are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and analysis.
This allows a statistical analysis of the success or failure of online
marketing campaigns. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, the SJ
Publishing may see if and when an e-mail was opened by a data subject,
and which links in the e-mail were called up by data subjects.
Such personal data collected in the tracking pixels contained in the
newsletters are stored and analyzed by the controller in order to
optimize the shipping of the newsletter, as well as to adapt the content
of future newsletters even better to the interests of the data subject.
These personal data will not be passed on to third parties. Data subjects
are at any time entitled to revoke the respective separate declaration of
consent issued by means of the double-opt-in procedure. After a
revocation, these personal data will be deleted by the controller. The SJ
Publishing automatically regards a withdrawal from the receipt of the
newsletter as a revocation.
Contact possibility via the website
The website of the SJ Publishing Websites contains information that
enables a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct
communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-
called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the
controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted
by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data
transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the data controller
are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject.
There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.
Comments function in the blog on the website
The SJ Publishing Websites offers users the possibility to leave
individual comments on individual blog contributions on a blog, which is
on the website of the controller. A blog is a web-based, publicly-
accessible portal, through which one or more people called bloggers or
web-bloggers may post articles or write down thoughts in so-called
blogposts. Blogposts may usually be commented by third parties.
If a data subject leaves a comment on the blog published on this website,
the comments made by the data subject are also stored and published, as
well as information on the date of the commentary and on the user’s
(pseudonym) chosen by the data subject. In addition, the IP address
assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) to the data subject is
also logged. This storage of the IP address takes place for security
reasons, and in case the data subject violates the rights of third
parties, or posts illegal content through a given comment. The storage of
these personal data is, therefore, in the own interest of the data
controller, so that he can exculpate in the event of an infringement.
This collected personal data will not be passed to third parties, unless
such a transfer is required by law or serves the aim of the defense of
the data controller.
Subscription to comments in the blog on the website
The comments made in the blog of the SJ Publishing Websites may be
subscribed to by third parties. In particular, there is the possibility
that a commenter subscribes to the comments following his comments on a
particular blog post.
If a data subject decides to subscribe to the option, the controller will
send an automatic confirmation e-mail to check the double opt-in
procedure as to whether the owner of the specified e-mail address decided
in favor of this option. The option to subscribe to comments may be
terminated at any time.
Routine erasure and blocking of personal data
The data controller shall process and store the personal data of the data
subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage,
or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other
legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject to.
If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period
prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator
expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance
with legal requirements.
Rights of the data subject
a) Right of confirmation
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator
to obtain from the controller the confirmation as to whether or not
personal data concerning him or her are being processed. If a data
subject wishes to avail himself of this right of confirmation, he or she
may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.
b) Right of access
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator
to obtain from the controller free information about his or her personal
data stored at any time and a copy of this information. Furthermore, the
European directives and regulations grant the data subject access to the
following information:
the purposes of the processing;
the categories of personal data concerned;
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have

available information as to their source;
the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, referred
to in Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and, at least in those cases,
meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the
significance and envisaged consequences of such processing for the data
subject.
Furthermore, the data subject shall have a right to obtain information as
to whether personal data are transferred to a third country or to an
international organisation. Where this is the case, the data subject
shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards
relating to the transfer.
If a data subject wishes to avail himself of this right of access, he or
she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.
c) Right to rectification
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator
to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of
inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Taking into account the
purposes of the processing, the data subject shall have the right to have
incomplete personal data completed, including by means of providing a
supplementary statement.
If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, he or
she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.
d) Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten)
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator
to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him
or her without undue delay, and the controller shall have the obligation
to erase personal data without undue delay where one of the following
grounds applies, as long as the processing is not necessary:
The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for
which they were collected or otherwise processed.
The data subject withdraws consent to which the processing is based
according to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, or point (a) of
Article 9(2) of the GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for
the processing.
The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of
the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the
processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to
Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
The personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation
in Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.
The personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of
information society services referred to in Article 8(1) of the GDPR.
If one of the aforementioned reasons applies, and a data subject wishes
to request the erasure of personal data stored by the SJ Publishing, he
or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller. An
employee of SJ Publishing Websites shall promptly ensure that the erasure
request is complied with immediately.
Where the controller has made personal data public and is obliged
pursuant to Article 17(1) to erase the personal data, the controller,
taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation,
shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform
other controllers processing the personal data that the data subject has
requested erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or
replication of, those personal data, as far as processing is not
required. An employees of the SJ Publishing Websites will arrange the
necessary measures in individual cases.
e) Right of restriction of processing
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator
to obtain from the controller restriction of processing where one of the
following applies:
The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a
period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal
data.
The processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of
the personal data and requests instead the restriction of their use
instead.
The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the
processing, but they are required by the data subject for the
establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
The data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of
the GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the
controller override those of the data subject.
If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data subject wishes
to request the restriction of the processing of personal data stored by
the SJ Publishing Websites, he or she may at any time contact any
employee of the controller. The employee of the SJ Publishing Websites
will arrange the restriction of the processing.
f) Right to data portability
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European
legislator, to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which was
provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-
readable format. He or she shall have the right to transmit those data to
another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the
personal data have been provided, as long as the processing is based on
consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR or point (a) of
Article 9(2) of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of
Article 6(1) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated
means, as long as the processing is not necessary for the performance of
a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official
authority vested in the controller.
Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant
to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to
have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another,
where technically feasible and when doing so does not adversely affect
the rights and freedoms of others.
In order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may at
any time contact any employee of the SJ Publishing Websites.
g) Right to object
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator
to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any
time, to processing of personal data concerning him or her, which is
based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR. This also applies
to profiling based on these provisions.
The SJ Publishing Websites shall no longer process the personal data in
the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling
legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests,
rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment,
exercise or defence of legal claims.
If the SJ Publishing Websites processes personal data for direct
marketing purposes, the data subject shall have the right to object at
any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her for such
marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to
such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to the SJ Publishing
Websites to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the SJ
Publishing Websites will no longer process the personal data for these
purposes.
In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his
or her particular situation, to object to processing of personal data
concerning him or her by the SJ Publishing Websites for scientific or
historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to
Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the
performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
In order to exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact
any employee of the SJ Publishing Websites. In addition, the data subject
is free in the context of the use of information society services, and
notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to use his or her right to object
by automated means using technical specifications.
h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator
not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing,
including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her,
or similarly significantly affects him or her, as long as the decision
(1) is not is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a
contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) is not
authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is
subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data
subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not
based on the data subject’s explicit consent.
If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance
of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) it
is based on the data subject’s explicit consent, the SJ Publishing
Websites shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data
subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the
right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to
express his or her point of view and contest the decision.
If the data subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated
individual decision-making, he or she may, at any time, contact any
employee of the SJ Publishing Websites.
i) Right to withdraw data protection consent
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator
to withdraw his or her consent to processing of his or her personal data
at any time.
If the data subject wishes to exercise the right to withdraw the consent,
he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the SJ Publishing.
Data protection for applications and the application procedures
The data controller shall collect and process the personal data of
applicants for the purpose of the processing of the application
procedure. The processing may also be carried out electronically. This is
the case, in particular, if an applicant submits corresponding
application documents by e-mail or by means of a web form on the website
to the controller. If the data controller concludes an employment
contract with an applicant, the submitted data will be stored for the
purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with
legal requirements. If no employment contract is concluded with the
applicant by the controller, the application documents shall be
automatically erased two months after notification of the refusal
decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller
are opposed to the erasure. Other legitimate interest in this relation
is, e.g. a burden of proof in a procedure under the General Equal
Treatment Act (AGG).
Data protection provisions about the application and use of Facebook
On this website, the controller has integrated components of the
enterprise Facebook. Facebook is a social network.
A social network is a place for social meetings on the Internet, an
online community, which usually allows users to communicate with each
other and interact in a virtual space. A social network may serve as a
platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences, or enable the
Internet community to provide personal or business-related information.
Facebook allows social network users to include the creation of private
profiles, upload photos, and network through friend requests.
The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo
Park, CA 94025, United States. If a person lives outside of the United
States or Canada, the controller is the Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand
Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet
website, which is operated by the controller and into which a Facebook
component (Facebook plug-ins) was integrated, the web browser on the
information technology system of the data subject is automatically
prompted to download display of the corresponding Facebook component from
Facebook through the Facebook component. An overview of all the Facebook
Plug-ins may be accessed under
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/. During the course of this
technical procedure, Facebook is made aware of what specific sub-site of
our website was visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook, Facebook
detects with every call-up to our website by the data subject—and for the
entire duration of their stay on our Internet site—which specific sub-
site of our Internet page was visited by the data subject. This
information is collected through the Facebook component and associated
with the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the data
subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated into our
website, e.g. the “Like” button, or if the data subject submits a
comment, then Facebook matches this information with the personal
Facebook user account of the data subject and stores the personal data.
Facebook always receives, through the Facebook component, information
about a visit to our website by the data subject, whenever the data
subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook during the time of the
call-up to our website. This occurs regardless of whether the data
subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If such a transmission
of information to Facebook is not desirable for the data subject, then he
or she may prevent this by logging off from their Facebook account before
a call-up to our website is made.
The data protection guideline published by Facebook, which is available
at https://facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information about the
collection, processing and use of personal data by Facebook. In addition,
it is explained there what setting options Facebook offers to protect the
privacy of the data subject. In addition, different configuration options
are made available to allow the elimination of data transmission to
Facebook. These applications may be used by the data subject to eliminate
a data transmission to Facebook.
Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google
AdSense
On this website, the controller has integrated Google AdSense. Google
AdSense is an online service which allows the placement of advertising on
third-party sites. Google AdSense is based on an algorithm that selects
advertisements displayed on third-party sites to match with the content
of the respective third-party site. Google AdSense allows an interest-
based targeting of the Internet user, which is implemented by means of
generating individual user profiles.
The operating company of Google’s AdSense component is Alphabet Inc.,
1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, United States.
The purpose of Google’s AdSense component is the integration of
advertisements on our website. Google AdSense places a cookie on the
information technology system of the data subject. The definition of
cookies is explained above. With the setting of the cookie, Alphabet Inc.
is enabled to analyze the use of our website. With each call-up to one of
the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the
controller and into which a Google AdSense component is integrated, the
Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject
will automatically submit data through the Google AdSense component for
the purpose of online advertising and the settlement of commissions to
Alphabet Inc. During the course of this technical procedure, the
enterprise Alphabet Inc. gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP
address of the data subject, which serves Alphabet Inc., inter alia, to
understand the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently create
commission settlements.
The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies
through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of
the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies.
Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent
Alphabet Inc. from setting a cookie on the information technology system
of the data subject. Additionally, cookies already in use by Alphabet
Inc. may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software
programs.
Furthermore, Google AdSense also uses so-called tracking pixels. A
tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in web pages to
enable a log file recording and a log file analysis through which a
statistical analysis may be performed. Based on the embedded tracking
pixels, Alphabet Inc. is able to determine if and when a website was
opened by a data subject, and which links were clicked on by the data
subject. Tracking pixels serve, inter alia, to analyze the flow of
visitors on a website.
Through Google AdSense, personal data and information—which also includes
the IP address, and is necessary for the collection and accounting of the
displayed advertisements—is transmitted to Alphabet Inc. in the United
States of America. These personal data will be stored and processed in
the United States of America. The Alphabet Inc. may disclose the
collected personal data through this technical procedure to third
parties.

Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google
Analytics (with anonymization function)
On this website, the controller has integrated the component of Google
Analytics (with the anonymizer function). Google Analytics is a web
analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and
analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web
analysis service collects, inter alia, data about the website from which
a person has come (the so-called referrer), which sub-pages were visited,
or how often and for what duration a sub-page was viewed. Web analytics
are mainly used for the optimization of a website and in order to carry
out a cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising.
The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600
Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, United States.
For the web analytics through Google Analytics the controller uses the
application “_gat. _anonymizeIp”. By means of this application the IP
address of the Internet connection of the data subject is abridged by
Google and anonymised when accessing our websites from a Member State of
the European Union or another Contracting State to the Agreement on the
European Economic Area.
The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the traffic
on our website. Google uses the collected data and information, inter
alia, to evaluate the use of our website and to provide online reports,
which show the activities on our websites, and to provide other services
concerning the use of our Internet site for us.
Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of
the data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. With the
setting of the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our
website. With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this
Internet site, which is operated by the controller and into which a
Google Analytics component was integrated, the Internet browser on the
information technology system of the data subject will automatically
submit data through the Google Analytics component for the purpose of
online advertising and the settlement of commissions to Google. During
the course of this technical procedure, the enterprise Google gains
knowledge of personal information, such as the IP address of the data
subject, which serves Google, inter alia, to understand the origin of
visitors and clicks, and subsequently create commission settlements.
The cookie is used to store personal information, such as the access
time, the location from which the access was made, and the frequency of
visits of our website by the data subject. With each visit to our
Internet site, such personal data, including the IP address of the
Internet access used by the data subject, will be transmitted to Google
in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google
in the United States of America. Google may pass these personal data
collected through the technical procedure to third parties.
The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies
through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of
the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies.
Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent Google
Analytics from setting a cookie on the information technology system of
the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by Google Analytics
may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.
In addition, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to a
collection of data that are generated by Google Analytics, which is
related to the use of this website, as well as the processing of this
data by Google and the chance to preclude any such. For this purpose, the
data subject must download a browser add-on under the link
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and install it. This browser
add-on tells Google Analytics through a JavaScript, that any data and
information about the visits of Internet pages may not be transmitted to
Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-ons is considered
an objection by Google. If the information technology system of the data
subject is later deleted, formatted, or newly installed, then the data
subject must reinstall the browser add-ons to disable Google Analytics.
If the browser add-on was uninstalled by the data subject or any other
person who is attributable to their sphere of competence, or is disabled,
it is possible to execute the reinstallation or reactivation of the
browser add-ons.
Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of
Google may be retrieved under
https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/ and under
http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html. Google Analytics is
further explained under the following Link

Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google+
On this website, the controller has integrated the Google+ button as a
component. Google+ is a so-called social network. A social network is a
social meeting place on the Internet, an online community, which usually
allows users to communicate with each other and interact in a virtual
space. A social network may serve as a platform for the exchange of
opinions and experiences, or enable the Internet community to provide
personal or business-related information. Google+ allows users of the
social network to include the creation of private profiles, upload photos
and network through friend requests.
The operating company of Google+ is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy,
Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, UNITED STATES.
With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this website, which
is operated by the controller and on which a Google+ button has been
integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of
the data subject automatically downloads a display of the corresponding
Google+ button of Google through the respective Google+ button component.
During the course of this technical procedure, Google is made aware of
what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the data subject.
More detailed information about Google+ is available under
https://developers.google.com/+/.
If the data subject is logged in at the same time to Google+, Google
recognizes with each call-up to our website by the data subject and for
the entire duration of his or her stay on our Internet site, which
specific sub-pages of our Internet page were visited by the data subject.
This information is collected through the Google+ button and Google
matches this with the respective Google+ account associated with the data
subject.
If the data subject clicks on the Google+ button integrated on our
website and thus gives a Google+ 1 recommendation, then Google assigns
this information to the personal Google+ user account of the data subject
and stores the personal data. Google stores the Google+ 1 recommendation
of the data subject, making it publicly available in accordance with the
terms and conditions accepted by the data subject in this regard.
Subsequently, a Google+ 1 recommendation given by the data subject on
this website together with other personal data, such as the Google+
account name used by the data subject and the stored photo, is stored and
processed on other Google services, such as search-engine results of the
Google search engine, the Google account of the data subject or in other
places, e.g. on Internet pages, or in relation to advertisements. Google
is also able to link the visit to this website with other personal data
stored on Google. Google further records this personal information with
the purpose of improving or optimizing the various Google services.
Through the Google+ button, Google receives information that the data
subject visited our website, if the data subject at the time of the
call-up to our website is logged in to Google+. This occurs regardless of
whether the data subject clicks or doesn’t click on the Google+ button.
If the data subject does not wish to transmit personal data to Google, he
or she may prevent such transmission by logging out of his Google+
account before calling up our website.
Further information and the data protection provisions of Google may be
retrieved under https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/. More
references from Google about the Google+ 1 button may be obtained under
https://developers.google.com/+/web/buttons-policy.
Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google-
AdWords
On this website, the controller has integrated Google AdWords. Google
AdWords is a service for Internet advertising that allows the advertiser
to place ads in Google search engine results and the Google advertising
network. Google AdWords allows an advertiser to pre-define specific
keywords with the help of which an ad on Google’s search results only
then displayed, when the user utilizes the search engine to retrieve a
keyword-relevant search result. In the Google Advertising Network, the
ads are distributed on relevant web pages using an automatic algorithm,
taking into account the previously defined keywords.
The operating company of Google AdWords is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre
Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, UNITED STATES.
The purpose of Google AdWords is the promotion of our website by the
inclusion of relevant advertising on the websites of third parties and in
the search engine results of the search engine Google and an insertion of
third-party advertising on our website.
If a data subject reaches our website via a Google ad, a conversion
cookie is filed on the information technology system of the data subject
through Google. The definition of cookies is explained above. A
conversion cookie loses its validity after 30 days and is not used to
identify the data subject. If the cookie has not expired, the conversion
cookie is used to check whether certain sub-pages, e.g, the shopping cart
from an online shop system, were called up on our website. Through the
conversion cookie, both Google and the controller can understand whether
a person who reached an AdWords ad on our website generated sales, that
is, executed or canceled a sale of goods.
The data and information collected through the use of the conversion
cookie is used by Google to create visit statistics for our website.
These visit statistics are used in order to determine the total number of
users who have been served through AdWords ads to ascertain the success
or failure of each AdWords ad and to optimize our AdWords ads in the
future. Neither our company nor other Google AdWords advertisers receive
information from Google that could identify the data subject.
The conversion cookie stores personal information, e.g. the Internet
pages visited by the data subject. Each time we visit our Internet pages,
personal data, including the IP address of the Internet access used by
the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of
America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of
America. Google may pass these personal data collected through the
technical procedure to third parties.
The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies by our
website, as stated above, by means of a corresponding setting of the
Internet browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies.
Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google
from placing a conversion cookie on the information technology system of
the data subject. In addition, a cookie set by Google AdWords may be
deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.
The data subject has a possibility of objecting to the interest based
advertisement of Google. Therefore, the data subject must access from
each of the browsers in use the link www.google.de/settings/ads and set
the desired settings.
Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of
Google may be retrieved under
https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.
Data protection provisions about the application and use of Instagram
On this website, the controller has integrated components of the service
Instagram. Instagram is a service that may be qualified as an audiovisual
platform, which allows users to share photos and videos, as well as
disseminate such data in other social networks.
The operating company of the services offered by Instagram is Instagram
LLC, 1 Hacker Way, Building 14 First Floor, Menlo Park, CA, UNITED
STATES.
With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site,
which is operated by the controller and on which an Instagram component
(Insta button) was integrated, the Internet browser on the information
technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to the
download of a display of the corresponding Instagram component of
Instagram. During the course of this technical procedure, Instagram
becomes aware of what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the
data subject.
If the data subject is logged in at the same time on Instagram, Instagram
detects with every call-up to our website by the data subject—and for the
entire duration of their stay on our Internet site—which specific sub-
page of our Internet page was visited by the data subject. This
information is collected through the Instagram component and is
associated with the respective Instagram account of the data subject. If
the data subject clicks on one of the Instagram buttons integrated on our
website, then Instagram matches this information with the personal
Instagram user account of the data subject and stores the personal data.
Instagram receives information via the Instagram component that the data
subject has visited our website provided that the data subject is logged
in at Instagram at the time of the call to our website. This occurs
regardless of whether the person clicks on the Instagram button or not.
If such a transmission of information to Instagram is not desirable for
the data subject, then he or she can prevent this by logging off from
their Instagram account before a call-up to our website is made.

for WordPress
On this website, the controller has integrated Jetpack. Jetpack is a
WordPress plug-in, which provides additional features to the operator of
a website based on WordPress. Jetpack allows the Internet site operator,
inter alia, an overview of the visitors of the site. By displaying
related posts and publications, or the ability to share content on the
page, it is also possible to increase visitor numbers. In addition,
security features are integrated into Jetpack, so a Jetpack-using site is
better protected against brute-force attacks. Jetpack also optimizes and
accelerates the loading of images on the website.
The operating company of Jetpack Plug-Ins for WordPress is the Automattic
Inc., 132 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, UNITED STATES. The
operating enterprise uses the tracking technology created by Quantcast
Inc., 201 Third Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, UNITED STATES.
Jetpack sets a cookie on the information technology system used by the
data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. With each
call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is
operated by the controller and on which a Jetpack component was
integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of
the data subject is automatically prompted to submit data through the
Jetpack component for analysis purposes to Automattic. During the course
of this technical procedure Automattic receives data that is used to
create an overview of website visits. The data obtained in this way
serves the analysis of the behaviour of the data subject, which has
access to the Internet page of the controller and is analyzed with the
aim to optimize the website. The data collected through the Jetpack
component is not used to identify the data subject without a prior
obtaining of a separate express consent of the data subject. The data
comes also to the notice of Quantcast. Quantcast uses the data for the
same purposes as Automattic.
The data subject can, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies
through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of
the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies.
Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent
Automattic/Quantcast from setting a cookie on the information technology
system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by
Automattic/Quantcast may be deleted at any time via a web browser or
other software programs.
In addition, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to a
collection of data relating to a use of this Internet site that are
generated by the Jetpack cookie as well as the processing of these data
by Automattic/Quantcast and the chance to preclude any such. For this
purpose, the data subject must press the ‘opt-out’ button under the link
https://www.quantcast.com/opt-out/ which sets an opt-out cookie. The
opt-out cookie set with this purpose is placed on the information
technology system used by the data subject. If the cookies are deleted on
the system of the data subject, then the data subject must call up the
link again and set a new opt-out cookie.
With the setting of the opt-out cookie, however, the possibility exists
that the websites of the controller are not fully usable anymore by the
data subject.

Payment Method: Data protection provisions about the use of PayPal as
a payment processor
On this website, the controller has integrated components of PayPal.
PayPal is an online payment service provider. Payments are processed via
so-called PayPal accounts, which represent virtual private or business
accounts. PayPal is also able to process virtual payments through credit
cards when a user does not have a PayPal account. A PayPal account is
managed via an e-mail address, which is why there are no classic account
numbers. PayPal makes it possible to trigger online payments to third
parties or to receive payments. PayPal also accepts trustee functions and
offers buyer protection services.
The European operating company of PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. &
Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, 2449 Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
If the data subject chooses “PayPal” as the payment option in the online
shop during the ordering process, we automatically transmit the data of
the data subject to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data
subject agrees to the transfer of personal data required for payment
processing.
The personal data transmitted to PayPal is usually first name, last name,
address, email address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone
number, or other data necessary for payment processing. The processing of
the purchase contract also requires such personal data, which are in
connection with the respective order.
The transmission of the data is aimed at payment processing and fraud
prevention. The controller will transfer personal data to PayPal, in
particular, if a legitimate interest in the transmission is given. The
personal data exchanged between PayPal and the controller for the
processing of the data will be transmitted by PayPal to economic credit
agencies. This transmission is intended for identity and creditworthiness
checks.
PayPal will, if necessary, pass on personal data to affiliates and
service providers or subcontractors to the extent that this is necessary
to fulfill contractual obligations or for data to be processed in the
order.
The data subject has the possibility to revoke consent for the handling
of personal data at any time from PayPal. A revocation shall not have any
effect on personal data which must be processed, used or transmitted in
accordance with (contractual) payment processing.
The applicable data protection provisions of PayPal may be retrieved
under https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full.
Legal basis for the processing
Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations
for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the
processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a
contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example,
when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to
provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b
GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary
for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of
inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject to
a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such
as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on
Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may
be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of
another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor
were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or
other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital
or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1)
lit. d GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6
(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which
are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing
is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our
company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden
by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject
which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are
particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by
the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could
be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47
Sentence 2 GDPR).
The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third
party
Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f
GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the
well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.
Period for which the personal data will be stored
The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is
the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that
period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no
longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of
a contract.
Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement;
Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data
subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to
provide such data
We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law
(e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions
(e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be
necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with
personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data
subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when
our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the
personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data
subject could not be concluded. Before personal data is provided by the
data subject, the data subject must contact any employee. The employee
clarifies to the data subject whether the provision of the personal data
is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the
contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and
the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.
Existence of automated decision-making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or
profiling.
