Our website

Purpose

If you only use our website to retrieve information, it is generally not necessary for you to provide personal data. However, it is necessary for the operation of the website to process certain data that can be used to establish a personal reference. In this case, this is only the data that is transmitted to us by your Internet browser. These are in particular the following:

  • Date and time of accessing one of our web pages
  • your browser type
  • the browser settings
  • the operating system used
  • the last page you visited
  • the amount of data transferred and the access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.) your IP address

Legal basis

The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest (§ 165 para. 3 TKG 2021, Art 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR), which consists of ensuring the operation of the website, carrying out an error and availability analysis and defending against attacks.

Recipients

If this is necessary for the above-mentioned purposes, your personal data will only be transmitted to IT service providers used by us.

Storage period

The data is only stored for a maximum of 32 days, unless there is a legal obligation to retain it for longer. At the same time, data may be stored for longer if this is necessary in order to investigate detected attacks on our website.

Use of cookies

In order to make visiting our website attractive, we use cookies that enable the use of certain functions on the website. Cookies are small text files that are temporarily stored on your computer. They do not interfere with the system and cannot cause any damage.

Most browsers are configured to accept cookies automatically. However, you can also set your browser so that you are either informed about the setting of cookies, decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept them or generally exclude the acceptance of cookies. If you do not accept cookies, the functionality of our website may be restricted. Under the “Help” menu item in common browsers, you will find information on how you can accept or reject cookies.

Necessary cookies

Certain technical cookies are necessary to enable the operation of a website. These technically necessary cookies are only used by visitors to the website primarily to control certain sessions. This means that they are automatically deleted after the respective session when the browser is closed. The legal basis for their use is our legitimate interest (§ 165 para. 3 TKG 2021, Art 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) to ensure the operation of the website.

Statistical cookies

Matomo

This website uses Piwik/Matomo, an open-source software for the statistical analysis of visitor access. Piwik/Matomo uses cookies. This enables us to analyze the use of the website. The purpose of this analysis is to improve the website for you by, among other things, detecting navigation problems on the website and adapting functions and offers according to your wishes. The collection of your data is therefore absolutely necessary for the operation of the website.

The information generated by the cookies about your use of this website is stored exclusively on our web server and is not transmitted to other servers or third parties.

After collection and before storage, the IP address is immediately anonymized.

However, if you do not agree to the storage and analysis of this data, you can object to its storage and use at any time (by clicking below). (A so-called opt-out cookie is then stored in your browser, which means that Piwik/Matomo does not collect any session data).

You have the option of preventing the actions you take here from being analyzed and linked. This will protect your privacy, but will also prevent the owner from learning from your actions and improving usability for you and other users.

Your visit to this website is currently recorded by Matomo Web Analytics. Uncheck this box to opt-out. (Zustimmungsfeld für Matomo Cookies)

YouTube videos

Purpose, processed data and recipients

YouTube videos are integrated on our website, which are stored on “www.youtube.com” and can be played directly from our website. YouTube is operated by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA (hereinafter referred to as “Google”). We use the “extended data protection mode” option provided by YouTube, i.e. no data about you as a user is transmitted to YouTube if you do not play the videos.

Only when you play the videos will YouTube cookies be stored on your computer and data transmitted to the YouTube operator Google. If you play videos stored on YouTube, at least the following data will be transmitted to Google: IP address and cookie ID, the specific address of the page you have accessed on our website, the language setting of your browser, the system date and time of access and your browser ID. The data transfer takes place regardless of whether you are logged in to YouTube via a user account or whether you do not have a user account. If you are logged in, this data is assigned directly to your account. You can prevent this assignment by logging out before activating the start button. YouTube or Google stores this data as user profiles and uses it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, which you must address directly to Google as the operator of YouTube.

The legal basis for the setting of the aforementioned cookies and the associated data processing is your consent (§ 165 para. 3 TKG 2021, Art 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). By playing the YouTube videos, you consent to data processing by Google. We do not process the data concerned.

Revocation notice

You can withdraw your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing up to the time of revocation remains unaffected.

Transmission to third countries

Google operates several data centers and servers worldwide. It is therefore possible that data may also be transferred to a third country. An overview of the data centers and servers operated by Google can be found here   . According to Google, standard contractual clauses are used if data is transferred to an inappropriate third country  .

Google Maps

We use the “Google Maps” component from Google on our website.

No cookies are set when using the “Google Maps” component. We would like to point out that data is only transmitted to Google when you actively select the component.

Open Street Maps

Our website also uses map services provided by the OpenStreetMap Foundation, 132 Maney Hill Road, Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands B72 1JU, United Kingdom (short OSMF).

As the operator of this website, we have no control over these connections and the processing of your data by OSMF.

Chatbot Leo

Purpose

We use a chatbot on our website. The data processing serves the purpose of providing the chatbot. It is designed to help you find the information you want on our website more quickly and to make it easier for you to contact us.

The chat history is stored for forwarding to the specialist department and/or for the continuous improvement of service quality beyond the duration of the conversation. The chatbot solution uses software that uses an algorithm based on “artificial intelligence” and continuously improves itself. To achieve this and train the chatbot, chat messages from chatbot users are stored and processed. The conversations are assigned a randomly generated pseudonym, which cannot be assigned to chatbot users and thus guarantees the anonymity of the users.

The provision of personal data is neither legally nor contractually required or necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide your personal data. If you do not provide it, you will not be able to use the Leo chatbot.

Processed data

No cookies are set when using our chatbot. However, the following user information is stored in the browser's LocalStorage:

  • chatwidget-{Widget-ID}-sender: This contains a reference to users in our system.
  • chatwidget-{Widget-ID}-auto-msg: This contains information about the welcome message (e.g. whether you have already seen it or closed it).
  • chatwidget-{Widget-ID}-timestamp: Time of your last visit.
  • chatwidget-{Widget-ID}-widgetInfo: Contains basic information about the display of the widget so that you do not have to reload it from the server every time you visit.
  • chatwidget-{Widget-ID}-sound: You have the option of switching the sound on and off. This is stored here.

Legal basis

The legal basis for processing the data in order to provide you with the chatbot is your consent in accordance with § 165 para. 3 TKG 2021.

Revocation notice

You can withdraw your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing up to the time of revocation remains unaffected.

Recipients

The chatbot function is provided by the company Onlim (Onlim GmbH, Michael-Gaismair-Strasse 13, 6410 Telfs, Austria, hereinafter referred to as “Onlim”). By using the chatbot functions, a direct connection to the Onlim servers is established. Your entries in the chat transmit data to the Onlim servers. The company Onlim is therefore our data processor. Further information on data protection at Onlim can be found at https://onlim.com/en/privacy-policy/  .

Storage period

Your personal data will only be stored for as long as is necessary to achieve the respective purpose or until you withdraw your consent. You can delete the data in your LocalStorage yourself at any time. If you visit the site again after more than seven days, the information in LocalStorage will be ignored, deleted and recreated.
