Privacy policy

We are pleased that you are visiting our website. Below, we would like to inform you about how we handle your data in accordance with Article 13 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The entity named in the legal notice is responsible for the data processing described below.

When you visit our website, our web server temporarily logs so-called usage data for statistical purposes in order to improve the quality of our website. This data set consists of:

1. the name and address of the requested content,
2. the date and time of the query,
3. the amount of data transferred,
4. the access status (content transferred, content not found),
5. a description of the web browser and operating system used,
6. the referral link, which indicates which page you came from to reach ours.

The legal basis for the processing of usage data is Article 6(1), first sentence, subparagraph (f) of the GDPR. The processing is carried out in the legitimate interest of providing the website’s content and ensuring a display optimized for the user’s device and browser.

In addition, we store the full IP address transmitted by your web browser strictly for a specific purpose for a period of seven days, in our legitimate interest to detect, contain, and eliminate attacks on our website. After this period has expired, we delete or anonymize the IP address. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

We use cookies on our website that are necessary for using our website.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device and can be read. There are two types of cookies: session cookies, which are deleted as soon as you close your browser, and persistent cookies, which remain stored beyond the duration of a single session.

We do not use these essential cookies for analytics, tracking, or advertising purposes. In some cases, these cookies simply contain information about specific settings and are not personally identifiable. They may also be necessary to enable user navigation, security, and the proper functioning of the site.
We use these cookies based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are placed on your device. You can also delete them at any time using the appropriate browser settings and prevent new cookies from being set. Please note that, in such cases, our website may not display properly, and some features may no longer be available for technical reasons.

We use a consent management platform (consent or cookie banner) on our website. The processing activities related to the use of the consent management platform and the logging of the settings you have selected are based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, in our legitimate interest to display our content according to your preferences and to be able to verify the consents you have granted. The settings you have selected, the consents you have granted, and portions of your usage data are stored in a cookie. This ensures that the cookie remains valid for subsequent page requests and that your consents can continue to be tracked. For more information, please see the section titled “Essential Cookies.”

We use the open-source solution Klaro from KIProtect GmbH, Germany. The provider of the consent management platform acts on our behalf as a service provider strictly bound by our instructions (data processor). A data processing agreement in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR has been entered into.

We track visitor statistics anonymously on our website. To do this, we analyze the web server’s log data and the truncated IP address. It is not possible to identify you personally through this process.

We use the web analytics tool Google Analytics to tailor our website to user needs. Google Analytics creates usage profiles based on pseudonyms. To do this, persistent cookies are stored on your device and read by us. This allows us to recognize returning visitors and count them as such.
As part of the Google Analytics service, Google Ireland Limited supports us as a data processor in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR. Data processing may also take place by Google outside the EU or the EEA, specifically in the United States. With regard to Google, an adequate level of data protection cannot be assumed due to processing in the United States. There is a risk that government authorities may access the data for security and surveillance purposes without you being informed of this or having the ability to seek legal redress. Please keep this in mind if you decide to give your consent to our use of Google Analytics.
Data processing is based on your consent, provided that you have given your consent via our banner. The transfer to a third country is based on Art. 49(1)(a) of the GDPR.
You may withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, please follow the link to the privacy settings in the footer of our website and adjust the settings via our banner.

We embed videos on our website that are stored on Vimeo’s servers. For data protection reasons, no content from Vimeo is loaded initially when you visit our website. At this point, the third-party provider does not receive any information about you.
Only after you give your consent via our banner will content from Vimeo be loaded. This provides Vimeo with the information that you have visited our site, as well as the usage data technically required for this purpose (in particular, your IP address). In addition, Vimeo is then able to implement tracking technologies. We have no influence over Vimeo’s further processing of data.
The embedding is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, provided that you have given your consent via our banner. Please note that Vimeo Inc. is headquartered in the United States and that embedding the video results in your data being processed in the United States. There is a risk that government authorities may access the data for security and surveillance purposes without you being informed or having the opportunity to seek legal redress. The transfer to a third country is based on Article 49(1)(a) of the GDPR in conjunction with the standard contractual clauses implemented by Vimeo pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) of the GDPR.
You may withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, please follow the link to the privacy settings in the footer of our website and adjust the settings accordingly via our banner.

Our website features videos that contain AI-generated animations. Among other things, these videos depict synthetically generated characters who do not actually exist. This content was created using artificial intelligence systems.

The processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR in our legitimate interest in responding to your inquiry appropriately. If the purpose of contacting us is to enter into a contract, the additional legal basis is Article 6(1), sentence 1, letter b of the GDPR.
Your data will be deleted once it is no longer necessary and provided that no statutory retention obligations prevent this.

Unless we have already provided specific information regarding the retention period, we will delete personal data when it is no longer necessary for the aforementioned processing purposes and there are no legitimate interests or other legal grounds for retention that would prevent such deletion.

Unless we have already provided specific information regarding the retention period, we will delete personal data when it is no longer necessary for the aforementioned processing purposes and there are no legitimate interests or other legal grounds for retention that would prevent such deletion.
