Cookies
This website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device by your browser. They serve to make our offering more user-friendly, effective, and secure.
Some cookies are “session cookies” and are automatically deleted after your visit ends. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them (“persistent cookies”). These persistent cookies allow us or our partner companies to recognize your browser on your next visit.
You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies that are required for the electronic communication process or for providing certain functions that you have requested are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Cookies stored on the basis of consent are processed exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; consent may be revoked at any time.
Consent Management (Real Cookie Banner)
To manage the cookies and similar technologies used (tracking pixels, web beacons, etc.) and related consents, we use the consent tool “Real Cookie Banner”. Details on how “Real Cookie Banner” works can be found at https://devowl.io/rcb/data-processing/.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data in this context are Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR and Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the management of the cookies and similar technologies used and the related consents.
The provision of personal data is neither contractually required nor necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide the personal data. If you do not provide the personal data, we will not be able to manage your consents.
5. Analytics and Tracking
Google Site Kit
We use the WordPress plugin “Site Kit by Google” to manage and integrate various Google services on our website. Site Kit itself does not collect personal data. It acts as a bridge to configure services such as Google Analytics and Google Search Console, which process data as described below.
Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to analyze the use of the website. The information generated (including your shortened IP address) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers that may be located in the United States.
Google Analytics is used to evaluate website usage, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services relating to website usage and internet usage for the website operator. The data collected by Google Analytics may include:
- Pages visited and time spent on each page
- Geographic location (country/city level)
- Device type, operating system, and browser
- Referral source (how you reached this website)
- Interactions with site content
We use Google Analytics with IP anonymization enabled. This means your IP address is shortened by Google within the EU/EEA before being transmitted to the US. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there.
Legal basis: The use of Google Analytics is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your consent at any time with future effect.
Data transfer to the US: Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which provides an adequate level of data protection as decided by the European Commission.

Jetpack / WordPress.com Stats
This website uses Jetpack, a plugin by Automattic Inc., 60 29th Street #343, San Francisco, CA 94110-4929, USA. Among other features, Jetpack includes a statistics function (“WordPress.com Stats”) that collects data about visitor activity.
For these statistics, cookies are used that are stored on your device. The analysis includes, among other things: the number of page views, referrers (links from which visitors access the website), pages visited, and geographic information. The data is stored on servers operated by Automattic in the USA.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the statistical analysis of user behavior to optimize the web offering.

6. External Services and Third-Party Content
Google Web Fonts
This website uses web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When you visit a page, your browser loads the required fonts from Google’s servers (fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com). To do so, the browser you use establishes a connection with Google’s servers. This enables Google to learn that this website was accessed from your IP address.
The use of Google Web Fonts is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in a uniform and aesthetically appealing presentation of text on the website. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. For more information: https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and https://policies.google.com/privacy
Google Search Console
We use Google Search Console to monitor and maintain our website’s presence in Google search results. Google Search Console does not collect any personal data from visitors to this website. It provides us with analytics about how our site appears in search results, including search queries, click-through rates, and indexing status. This data is only accessible to the site administrator and is not shared with third parties.

8. Data Retention
Unless a more specific retention period has been stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or revoke consent for data processing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, the deletion will take place after these reasons cease to apply.
9. SSL/TLS Encryption
This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The most current version will always be available on this page with the date of the last update noted at the top.
