We emphasise that internet-based data transmission has security gaps, a complete protection against access by third parties is therefore impossible.

Cookies

We use so-called cookies on our site to recognize multiple use of our offer by the same user / internet connection owner. Cookies are small text files that your internet browser stores on your computer. They serve to optimize our Internet presence and our offers. Mostly these are so-called “session cookies “, which are deleted after the end of your visit.
In some cases, these cookies provide information to automatically recognize you. This recognition is based on the IP address stored in the cookies. The information obtained in this way is used to optimize our offers and to provide you with easier access to our site.
You may refuse the installation of the cookies through 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.

Server Data

For technical reasons, the following data, among others, which your internet browser transmits to us or to our web space provider is recorded (so-called server log files):


– Browser type and version
– Operating system used
– Website from which you visit us (referrer URL)
– Website you are visiting
– Date and time of your access
– Your internet protocol (IP) address

This anonymous data is stored separately from any personal data you may have provided and thus does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about a specific person. They are evaluated for statistical purposes in order to optimize our website and our offers.

Contact option

On our website we offer you the opportunity to contact us by e-mail and / or via contact form. In this case, the information provided by the user will be stored for the purpose of processing the contact. The data will not be passed on to third parties. The data collected in this way is also not compared with data that may be collected by other components of our website.

Use of Google-Maps

We use the component “Google Maps” of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter “Google”, on our website.


With each individual use of the “Google Maps” component, a cookie is set by Google to process user settings and -data when displaying the page on which the “Google Maps” component is integrated. As a rule, this cookie is not deleted by closing the browser, but expires after a certain time, unless you delete it manually beforehand.

If you do not agree with this processing of your data, you have the option of deactivating the “Google Maps” service and thus preventing the transfer of data to Google. To do this, you have to deactivate the Java Script function in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use “Google Maps” or only to a limited extent.

The use of “Google Maps” and the information obtained via “Google Maps” is according to the Google Terms of Service

http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/terms/regional.html

as well as the additional Terms of Service for “Google Maps”

https://www.google.com/intl/en_en/help/terms_maps/.

Use of reCAPTCHA

In order to protect input forms on our website, we use the “reCAPTCHA” service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter “Google”. Due the use of this service, it is possible to distinguish whether the corresponding input is of human origin or is misused due to automated machine processing.


To our knowledge, the referrer URL, the IP address, the behaviour of website visitors, information about the operating system, browser and length of stay, cookies, display instructions and scripts, the user’s input behaviour and mouse movements around the “reCAPTCHA” checkbox are transmitted to “Google”.

Google uses the information obtained in this way, among other things, to digitize books and other printed matter and to optimize services such as Google Street View and Google Maps (e.g., house number and street name recognition).

The IP address transmitted as part of “reCAPTCHA” will not be merged with other data from Google unless you are logged into your Google account at the time of using the “reCAPTCHA” plug-in. If you want to prevent this transmission and storage of data about you and your behaviour on our website by “Google”, you must log out of “Google” before visiting our website or using the reCAPTCHA plug-in.

The use of the service “reCAPTCHA” obtained information is in accordance with the Google Terms of Use:

https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

With each individual visit of our website that is equipped with such a component, this component causes the browser you are using to download a corresponding representation of the component from XING.


To our knowledge, XING does not store any personal data of the user about the visit of our website. XING also does not store any IP addresses. In addition, there is also no evaluation of usage behaviour via the use of cookies in connection with the “XING Share Button”.

Use of the LinkedIn-recommendation components

We use components of the LinkedIn network on our website. LinkedIn is a service of LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. With each individual visit of our website that is equipped with such a component, this component causes the browser you are using to download a corresponding representation of the component from LinkedIn.


This process informs LinkedIn which specific page of our website is currently being visited. If you click the LinkedIn “Recommend Button” while you are logged into your LinkedIn account, you can link the content of our pages on your LinkedIn profile. This enables LinkedIn to assign the visit to our pages to your LinkedIn user account.

We have no influence on the data that LinkedIn collects through this, nor on the scope of this data collected by LinkedIn. We also have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted to LinkedIn. Details on data collection by LinkedIn as well as your rights and setting options can be found in LinkedIn’s privacy notices. You can find these notes at http://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy
