You are of course free to share your personal data by other means (e. g., by phone or letter).
Your rights
According to Art. 15 GDPR, you have the right to ask us for a confirmation as to whether we are processing your personal data. If this is the case, you have a right to obtain information about this personal data and to obtain the following information:

• The categories of personal data being processed
• The recipients or categories of recipients to whom your personal data has been or will be disclosed, in particular in case of recipients in third countries or in case of international organisations as recipients

According to Art. 7 (3) GDPR, you have the right to withdraw at any time your consent previously given to us. This means that we cannot continue the data processing based on this consent in the future.
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your usual place of residence or employment or the location of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you violates this regulation.

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files which are stored on your computer and enable analysis of how you use the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there. Due to activation of IP anonymisation on these web pages, your IP address will be truncated within the member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the United States and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services to website operators in connection with website and internet usage. The IP address that is transmitted from your browser within the framework of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can further prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link:
Link: Browser Add On for deactivation of Google Analytics
Additionally, or as an alternative to the browser add-on, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our pages by clicking this link. . An opt-out cookie is then installed on your device. This will prevent Google Analytics from collecting cookies for this website and for this browser in future as long as the cookie remains installed on your browser.
Google Maps Plugin
On this website, we use the services of Google Maps. This allows us to show you interactive maps within the website and to conveniently use the map feature.
By visiting the website, Google receives the information that you accessed this subpage of our websites. In addition, the above-mentioned personal data will be transmitted. This happens regardless of whether you have a Google user account and/or you are logged in. When you are logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before visiting the subpage of our website. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or tailor-made website design.

You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. To assert this right, you must contact Google.

Use of Vimeo Plugins
We use service provider Vimeo for functions such as the integration of videos. Vimeo is operated by Vimeo, LLC, headquartered at 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011.
We use plugins from service provider Vimeo on some of our internet pages. If you call up one of the Internet pages on our website that is outfitted with such a plugin – “Videoportrait”, for example – a connection to the Vimeo servers is established and the plugin is displayed. This causes the Vimeo server to be informed regarding which of our Internet pages you visited. If you are logged in as a member of Vimeo, Vimeo will assign this information to your personal user account. When you use the plugin by clicking the start button of a video, for example, the information that you did this is also assigned to your user account. You can prevent this assignment by logging out of your Vimeo user account before using our website and by deleting the corresponding Vimeo cookies.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and further processing and use of the data by Vimeo, in addition to your rights in this regard and options for settings to protect your privacy, can be found in Vimeo’s privacy policy:

Cookies
To make our website more attractive to visitors and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called 'cookies' on our website. These are small text files that are stored on your device and through which the body that places the cookie (in this case us) receives certain information.
So-called transient cookies are automatically deleted after you close your browser or log out. These include session cookies in particular, which store a so-called session ID, with the help of which different requests from your browser can be assigned to a common session. This allows your browser to be recognised again when you return to our website.
Persistent cookies remain on your device and allow us to recognise your browser on your next visit. These persistent cookies have the advantage of automatically detecting which inputs and settings you made so that you do not have to make them again. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period of time. The duration may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete the cookies at any time by using the security settings on your browser.
The data processed by the cookies is necessary for the exercise of our legitimate interests and the legitimate interests of third parties (Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) GDPR).
Cookies are automatically accepted in the settings of most browsers. However, you can activate the feature that informs you when a cookie has been placed and allows you to approve them individually. If you completely block cookies, the functionality of our website may be restricted.
Data security
During your website visit, we use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser. As a rule, this is a 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we use 128-bit v3 technology instead. You can tell whether individual pages of our website are transmitted in encrypted form by the “closed” depiction of the key or lock symbol in the bottom status bar of your browser.
We also use suitable technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional tampering, partial or complete loss, destruction and unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
