External sources of content that we may include on our website will also receive your IP address (otherwise it would not be possible to download a specific font to your device). We process certain data to optimise this website in terms of system performance.

Connection data (including IP address, information on the website from which the request came, information on the browser used, operating system used, referrer URL, your Internet service provider, date/time) to establish an Internet connection between (i) your device and (ii) our website or the external content that we may have integrated into our website.

Some of the recipients named above are located outside the European Union or the European Economic Area or process your personal data there (e.g. Amazon Web Services, Google or Apple Inc.). The level of data protection in other countries may not correspond to that within the European Union or the European Economic Area. However, we only transfer your personal data to countries where either the EU Commission has decided that they have an adequate level of data protection, or we take measures to ensure that the recipients have an adequate level of data protection. To this end, for example, we conclude Standard Contractual Clauses issued by the EU Commission. Beyond that, we only process your personal data in third countries if you have given your explicit consent in accordance with Article 49 (1) lit. a GDPR.
4. Your rights
Taking into account the legal requirements, you may have the following rights:
Right to information. You can request confirmation as to whether and to what extent data about you is being processed.
Right to rectification. If we process incomplete or incorrect data received from you, you can request that it be corrected or completed at any time.
Right to erasure. You can request the erasure of your data if the purpose for which it was collected no longer applies, if unlawful processing has taken place, if you object to data processing because it interferes in an inadmissible and disproportionate manner with your legitimate protection interests, or if the data processing is based on your consent and you have revoked such. It should be noted here that there may be other reasons that may prevent your data from being immediately erased, e.g. statutory retention requirements, pending proceedings, the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims, etc.
Right to restriction of processing. You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your data if:
you dispute the accuracy of your data for a period of time that enables us to verify the accuracy of the data;
the processing of your data is unlawful, but you refuse to have it erased and instead request a restriction of its use;
we no longer require the data for the intended purpose, but you still require this data for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims; or
you have lodged an objection to the processing of the data until it has been determined whether our legitimate grounds outweigh yours.
Right to data portability. You can ask us to provide you with the data you have provided us with in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from us, provided that we process the data on the basis of your consent or to fulfil a contract between us and the processing is carried out using automated procedures.
Right to object. If we process your data to carry out tasks that are in the public interest, in the exercise of official authority, or if we invoke the need to safeguard our legitimate interest during processing, you can object to this data processing provided that an overriding interest in protecting your data exists.
To exercise these rights, please use the contact details stated above in section 1.
Rights in the context of consent granted to us. You can withdraw declarations of consent granted to us at any time without stating reasons, whereby you can withdraw each individual declaration of consent independently of other declarations of consent granted to us.
We expressly point out that a withdrawal has no direct or indirect negative consequences for your contractual relationship with us. The only consequence of a withdrawal of consent is that, from that point in time, we will no longer process your data for the purposes stated in the respective declaration of consent and any rights and/or advantages (if any) associated with the processing of the specific data can no longer be claimed.
To withdraw your consent, please use the contact details stated above in section 1.
Right to lodge a complaint. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or that your data protection claims have been violated in any other way, please contact us directly (for contact details, see Section 1 above). Of course, you can also lodge a complaint with the responsible data protection authority (for further information, see: <lda.bayern.de>).
5. Cookies
We use so-called cookies in order to make our website user-friendly and to enable the use of certain functions. These are small text files that are stored on your device with the help of your browser. Some of the cookies we use are erased after the end of the browser session, i.e. after you close your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain stored on your device until you erase them. These enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit our website (persistent cookies).
Different types of cookies exist, for example, so-called essential cookies and other cookies. Essential cookies are required to ensure basic functions of the website. For example, when using a cookie consent management system (“cookie banner”), a cookie is required that permanently saves the user’s decision (whether or which cookies are accepted) so that the query does not appear again every time the website is accessed.
We only process non-essential cookies with your consent. Using the “cookie banner” that appears the first time you visit the website, you can decide which cookies you want to allow and which you do not. You have the right and the option to withdraw your consent to the use of such cookies at any time; for example, by managing, deactivating or erasing the relevant cookies in your browser.
Specifically, we process the following non-essential cookies (provided you have given your explicit consent in accordance with Article 49 (1) lit. a GDPR.):
・Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics on our website, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (‘Google‘). Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about the use of the online offering by the user is usually transmitted to a Google server in the US and stored there.
We only use Google Analytics with activated IP anonymisation. This means that the IP address of the user is truncated by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address will only be sent to a Google server in the US and truncated there in exceptional circumstances. The IP address transmitted by the user’s browser will not be merged with other Google data.
Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our online offering by users, to compile reports on activities carried out within this online offering, and to provide us with other services related to the use of this online offering and the Internet. In doing so, pseudonymous user profiles can be created from the processed data.
Google Analytics uses the following cookies: _ga (storage period 2 years), _gid (storage period 24 hours), _gat (storage period 24 hours)
Google Analytics, among others, is used as a marketing cookie and performance cookie. It cannot be ruled out that Google Ireland as our contractual partner may transfer personal data to the USA (in particular there to Google LLC). In the USA, there is no level of data protection equivalent to the European Union in substance and there is no adequacy decision by the European Commission. This may result in risks for you because you cannot effectively enforce your rights as a data subject in the USA, there are no data protection principles in the USA, and because it cannot be ruled out that, due to current laws, US security authorities may gain access to data, whereby interference with your personal rights and freedoms is not limited to what is absolutely necessary. Should you also allow the setting of cookies for Google Analytics, you thereby also consent to the transfer of the personal data contained in the corresponding cookies in accordance with Art 49 para 1 lit a) GDPR.
You are free to give, refuse or withdraw your consent at any time.
