We reserve the right to subsequently check the log data if, based on concrete indications or evidence, there is a justified suspicion of unlawful use. We also store IP addresses if we have reason to suspect that a criminal offence has been committed in connection with the use of our website.

3.3 Cookies

We use so-called session cookies to optimise our website. A session cookie is a small text file that is sent by the server in question when you visit a website, and which is temporarily stored on your hard drive. This session cookie file stores a session ID, which makes it possible to track the various requests made by your browser during the joint session. This allows your computer to be recognised when you return to our website. These cookies are deleted after you close your browser. They serve, e.g., to prevent the cookie banner from being displayed repeatedly.

To a small extent, we also use persistent cookies (another type of small text file that is stored on your device), which remain on your device and enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit our website. These cookies are stored on your hard disk and are deleted automatically after a specified time. Their life span is between 1 month and 10 years. These cookies enable us to present our offering in a more user-friendly, effective and secure manner and, for example, to display information on the site that is specifically tailored to your interests.

Our legitimate interest to use cookies, in accordance with Art 6 para. 1 clause 1 f) GDPR, is to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure.

The following data and information is stored in the cookies:

  • Login information
  • Language settings
  • Search terms entered
  • Information about the number of visits to our website and use of individual features on our website

When a cookie is activated, it is assigned an identification number, but your personal data will not be mapped to this identification number. Your name, IP address or similar data that would allow the cookie to be traced to you does not get placed in the cookie. Based on the cookie technology, we only receive pseudonymised information.

You can set your browser so that you are informed in advance about cookies being set and can decide in individual cases whether you want to exclude cookies from being accepted in specific cases or in general, or can prevent cookies entirely. However, this may restrict the functionality of the website.

3.4 Data in order for us to fulfil our contractual obligations

We process personal data that we need in order to fulfil our contractual obligations, such as name, address, email address, ordered products, and billing and payment data. This data needs to be collected in order to conclude the contract.

The data will be deleted after expiry of the warranty periods and statutory retention periods. Data that is associated with a user account (see below) will always be retained for the duration the account is maintained for.

The legal basis for the processing of this data is Art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 b) GDPR, because this data is required in order for use to be able to fulfil our contractual obligations to you.

3.5 Contacting us

If you contact us (e.g., via our contact form or email), we will process your details in order to handle your enquiry and in the event that any follow-up questions arise.

If the data processing takes place in order to execute pre-contractual measures that are taking place at your request or, if you are already a customer of ours, in order to execute the contract between us, then the legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 b) GDPR.

We will only process further personal data if you give your consent to this (Art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 a) GDFPR) or we have a legitimate interest in the processing of your data (Art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 f) GDPR). There is a legitimate interest, for example, in replying to your email. Consent given can be revoked at any time, with effect for the future.

Data protection information for webinars via “Microsoft Teams

We would like to inform you below about the processing of personal data in connection with the use of Microsoft Teams.

Purpose of the processing

We use the Microsoft Teams tool to conduct webinars. Microsoft Teams is a service of Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA.

Note: To the extent that you access the Microsoft Teams website, Microsoft Corporation is responsible for data processing.

What data is processed?

When you use Microsoft Teams, various types of data are processed. The scope of the data also depends on the data you provide before or when participating in a webinar. The following personal data is subject to processing:

User details: e.g. display name (“Display name”), e-mail address.

Protocol files/meeting metadata: e.g. description (optional), IP address of the PC ́s or mobile device, date and time of access. Device/hardware and software information, language settings, relevant system configuration details (e.g. graphics card, sound card, driver version).

Text, audio and video data: You may have the opportunity to use the chat function in a webinar. In this respect, the text entries you make are processed in order to display them in the webinar and, if necessary, to record them. In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your terminal device and from any video camera of the terminal device will be processed accordingly for the duration of the webinar. You can switch off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time via the Microsoft Teams applications.

To participate in a webinar, you must at least provide details of your display name.

Scope of processing

We use Microsoft Teams to deliver webinars. The webinars are not recorded. The chat content is only available for the duration of the webinar.

Legal basis of data processing

We use Teams on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to be able to conduct webinars effectively.

If you have given your consent to the use of the service in accordance with Art 6. para. 1 clause 1 a) GDPR and § 25 Para. 1 TTDSG, this will serve exclusively as the legal basis. Consent given can be revoked at any time with effect for the future.

Recipients / passing on of data

Personal data processed in connection with participation in webinars will not be passed on to third parties as a matter of principle, unless they are specifically intended to be passed on. Please note that content from webinars, as well as from face-to-face meetings, is often used to communicate information with employees, customers, interested parties or third parties and is therefore intended for disclosure.

Other recipients: The Microsoft Teams provider necessarily receives knowledge of the above-mentioned data insofar as this is provided for in the context of our order processing agreement with Microsoft Teams.

Data processing outside the European Union

In principle, there is no data processing outside the European Union (EU), as the data centres are located in the EU.

However, the data is encrypted during transport over the internet and thus secured against unauthorised access by third parties.

Microsoft has submitted to the Data Privacy Framework concluded between the European Union and the USA and has been certified. This means that Microsoft undertakes to comply with the standards and regulations of European data protection law. Further information can be found in the following linked entry:
