Privacy policy

This English version of the privacy policy is provided for your convenience. Only the German version is legally binding.

We are delighted that you are interested in our company. Data protection is of particularly high importance to the management for the following publisher of this website: Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz. As a general rule, it is possible to use the website of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use special services offered by our company via our website, it may become necessary to process personal data. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and in compliance with the country-specific data protection provisions applicable to Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz. By means of this privacy policy, our company would like to inform the public of the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this privacy policy, of the rights to which they are entitled.

As the controller, Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible of personal data processed through this website. However, internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.


  1. Definitions

The privacy policy of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy policy should be legible and understandable for the general public as well as our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terminology used in advance.

In this privacy policy, we use, among others, the following terms:

1) Personal data

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

2) Data subject

Data subject means any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

3) Processing

Processing means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

4) Restriction of processing

Restriction of processing means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

5) Profiling

Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

6) Pseudonymisation

Pseudonymisation means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

7) Controller or controller responsible for the processing

Controller or controller responsible for the processing means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.

10) Third party

Third party means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.

11) Consent

  1. Cookies

The website of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored and saved on a computer system via an internet browser.

Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognised and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimised with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognise our website users. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilise our website. For example, a user of a website that uses cookies does not have to enter their access data again every time they visit the website, because this is handled by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping basket in an online shop. The online shop remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping basket via a cookie.

On our website, we also use cookies that allow the analysis of users’ browsing behaviour.

The following data may be transmitted in this way:

Frequency of page views

Search terms entered

Use of website functions

The user data collected in this way is pseudonymised by technical means. It is therefore no longer possible to assign the data to the user accessing the site. The data are not stored together with other personal data of the user.

When our website is accessed, the user is informed about the use of cookies for analysis purposes and their consent is obtained for the processing of the personal data used in this context. In this connection, reference is also made to this privacy policy.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies for analysis purposes, where the user’s consent has been given, is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

The data subject may prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the internet browser used, and thereby permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set may be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.


  1. Collection of general data and information

The website of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz collects a series of general data and information whenever the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the server’s log files. The following may be collected: (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using this general data and information, Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) correctly deliver the content of our website, (2) optimise the content of our website as well as the advertising for it, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated statistically by Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz and further with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company, in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files is stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.

In addition, provided the express permission of the relevant users has been given and applicable data protection provisions are complied with, the following personal data is also collected:

First and last names of users

IP address of users

E-mail address of users

Place of residence details (postcode, etc.)

The processing of personal data is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in fulfilling our contractually agreed services and in optimising our online offering.

You can also visit this website without providing any information about yourself. However, to improve our online offering, we store your access data to this website (without any reference to your person). This access data includes, for example, the file you requested or the name of your internet provider. By anonymising the data, it is not possible to draw conclusions about your person. The IP addresses of the user, or other data that would allow the data to be assigned to a user, are not affected by this. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.


  1. SSL encryption

To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use encryption methods that correspond to the current state of the art (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS.


  1. Subscribing to our newsletter

On the website of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our company’s newsletter. The input mask used for this purpose determines which personal data are transmitted to the controller when the newsletter is ordered.

Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz informs its customers and business partners at regular intervals by means of a newsletter about the company’s offers. As a general rule, our company’s newsletter can only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid e-mail address and (2) the data subject registers to receive the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address entered by a data subject for the first time for newsletter dispatch purposes, using the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation e-mail is used to verify whether the owner of the e-mail address, as the data subject, has authorised receipt of the newsletter.

When registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address of the computer system used by the data subject at the time of registration, as assigned by the internet service provider (ISP), as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to trace (possible) misuse of a data subject’s e-mail address at a later date, and therefore serves as legal protection for the controller.

The personal data collected as part of a registration for the newsletter will be used exclusively to send our newsletter. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter may be informed by e-mail, if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or for registration purposes, as could be the case in the event of changes to the newsletter offering or a change in technical circumstances. The personal data collected as part of the newsletter service will not be passed on to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter may be terminated by the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data, which the data subject has given us for the dispatch of the newsletter, may be revoked at any time. For the purpose of revoking consent, a corresponding link can be found in every newsletter. Furthermore, it is possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter dispatch directly on the website of the controller at any time, or to notify the controller of this in another way.

Parts of our newsletter may contain advertising material.


  1. Newsletter tracking

The newsletters of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in e-mails that are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This allows a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns to be carried out. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz can identify whether and when an e-mail was opened by a data subject, and which links contained in the e-mail were accessed by the data subject.

Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and evaluated by the controller in order to optimise the dispatch of the newsletter and to adapt the content of future newsletters even better to the interests of the data subject. This personal data will not be passed on to third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to revoke the separate declaration of consent given via the double opt-in procedure in this respect. After revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the controller. Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz automatically regards a withdrawal from receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.


  1. Possibility of contact via the website

Due to statutory provisions, the website of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz contains information that enables a quick electronic contact with our company as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address for the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject will be stored automatically. Such personal data, voluntarily transmitted by a data subject to the controller, will be stored for the purposes of processing or contacting the data subject. This personal data will not be passed on to third parties.


  1. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

The controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as provided for by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.

If the storage purpose no longer applies, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or erased in accordance with statutory provisions.


  1. Rights of the data subject

1) Right of confirmation

Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether or not personal data concerning them is being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of confirmation, they may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

2) Right of access

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain free-of-charge information from the controller at any time about the personal data stored about them, and a copy of this information. Furthermore, the European legislator has granted the data subject access to the following information:

  • the purposes of the processing
  • the categories of personal data concerned
  • the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been, or will still be, disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organisations
  • Where possible, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored, or, if this is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period
  • the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of the personal data concerning them, or restriction of processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing
  • the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
  • where the personal data are not collected from the data subject: any available information as to their source
  • the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR and — at least in those cases — meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject

The data subject also has the right to be informed whether personal data have been transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. Where this is the case, the data subject also has the right to obtain information about the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, they may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

3) Right to rectification

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to demand the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning them. The data subject also has the right, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to demand the completion of incomplete personal data — including by means of providing a supplementary statement. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, they may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

4) Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to demand that the controller erase personal data concerning them without undue delay, where one of the following grounds applies and insofar as the processing is not necessary:

  • The personal data were collected for purposes for which they are no longer necessary, or were otherwise processed for such purposes.
  • The data subject withdraws consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal ground for the processing.
  • The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR.
  • The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
  • The erasure of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
  • The personal data were collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Art. 8(1) GDPR.

If one of the above grounds applies and a data subject wishes to arrange for the erasure of personal data stored by Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz, they may contact an employee of the controller at any time. The employee of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz will arrange for the erasure request to be complied with without undue delay. If the personal data have been made public by Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz and our company, as controller, is obliged pursuant to Art. 17(1) GDPR to erase the personal data, Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz shall, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, take reasonable measures, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the published personal data that the data subject has requested that those other controllers erase any links to, or any copies or replications of, that personal data, insofar as the processing is not necessary. The employee of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz will arrange whatever is necessary on a case-by-case basis.

5) Right to restriction of processing

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to demand that the controller restrict processing where one of the following conditions applies:

The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.

The processing is unlawful, the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of their use instead.

The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the data subject requires them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

The data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and it has not yet been established whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.

If one of the above conditions applies and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz, they may contact an employee of the controller at any time. The employee of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz will arrange for the restriction of processing.

6) Right to data portability

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to receive the personal data concerning them which they have provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. They also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller. Furthermore, in exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20(1) GDPR, the data subject has the right to have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and provided this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others. To exercise the right to data portability, the data subject may contact an employee of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz at any time.

7) Right to object

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them which is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. In the event of an objection, Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz will no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. Where Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz processes personal data in order to carry out direct marketing, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purposes of such marketing. This also applies to profiling to the extent that it is connected with such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz regarding the processing for direct marketing purposes, Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz will no longer process the personal data for these purposes. In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning them which is carried out by Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) GDPR, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest. To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact any employee of Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz directly, or another employee. The data subject is further free, in connection with the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise their right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

8) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing — including profiling — which produces legal effects concerning them or similarly significantly affects them, provided that the decision (1) is not necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and that law also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is based on the data subject’s explicit consent. If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) it is based on the data subject’s explicit consent, Christian Kometer – General Agency of Allianz shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, which include at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express their own point of view and to contest the decision. If the data subject wishes to assert rights relating to automated decisions, they may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

9) Right to withdraw data protection consent

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time. If the data subject wishes to exercise their right to withdraw consent, they may contact an employee of the controller at any time.


  1. Data protection in job applications and the application process

The controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application process. Processing may also take place electronically. This is particularly the case where an applicant transmits the relevant application documents to the controller by electronic means, for example by e-mail or via a web form on the website. If the controller concludes a contract of employment with an applicant, the data transmitted will be stored, in accordance with statutory requirements, for the purpose of processing the employment relationship. If the controller does not conclude a contract of employment with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, unless deletion is precluded by other legitimate interests of the controller. Another legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the German General Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz, AGG).


  1. Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (hereinafter: Google). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and that make it possible to analyse your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymisation on this website, your IP address is first shortened by Google within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with further services relating to the use of the website and the internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other data held by Google.

The purposes of the data processing are the evaluation of the use of the website and the compilation of reports on website activity. Further related services are then to be provided on the basis of the use of the website and the internet. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of the website operator.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings accordingly; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie and relating 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 plug-in available at the following link: Browser add-on to disable Google Analytics.

In addition to, or as an alternative to, the browser add-on, you can prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our pages by clicking this link. This installs an opt-out cookie on your device.

  1. Analysis by Wireminds

Our website uses the pixel-counting technology of WiredMinds AG (www.wiredminds.de) to analyse visitor behaviour.

In this process, data are collected, processed and stored, from which usage profiles are created under a pseudonym. Where possible and appropriate, these usage profiles are fully anonymised. Cookies may be used for this purpose. Cookies are small text files that are stored in the visitor’s internet browser and serve to recognise the internet browser. The data collected, which may also include personal data, are transmitted to WiredMinds or collected directly by WiredMinds. WiredMinds may use information left behind by visits to the website to create anonymised usage profiles. Without the separately given consent of the person concerned, the data obtained in this way are not used to personally identify the visitor to this website, and they are not merged with personal data about the holder of the pseudonym. Insofar as IP addresses are collected, they are anonymised immediately by deleting the last block of digits.

You can object to the collection, processing and storage of data at any time, with effect for the future, via the following link: Exclude from website tracking.


  1. Use of libraries (web fonts)

In order to display our content correctly and in a visually appealing manner across browsers, we use libraries and font libraries on this website, such as Google Web Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). To avoid loading them multiple times, Google Web Fonts are transferred to your browser’s cache. If the browser does not support Google Web Fonts, or prevents access to them, content is displayed in a standard font.

Calling up libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. In theory, it is possible — although currently unclear whether, and if so for what purposes — that operators of such libraries collect data.

You can find the privacy policy of the library operator Google here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/


  1. Use of Adobe Typekit

We use Adobe Typekit for the visual design of our website. Typekit is a service provided by Adobe Systems Software Ireland Ltd. that grants us access to a font library. To embed the fonts we use, your browser must establish a connection to an Adobe server in the USA and download the font required for our website. This provides Adobe with the information that our website was accessed from your IP address. Further information on Adobe Typekit can be found in the privacy notices of Adobe, which you can access here: www.adobe.com/privacy/typekit.html


  1. Social media plug-ins

Social plugins from the providers listed below are used on our website. You can recognise the plugins by the fact that they are marked with the respective logo.

Via these plugins, information, which may also include personal data, may be sent to the service provider and used by it where applicable. We prevent the unintentional and unwanted collection and transmission of data to the service provider by means of a two-click solution. To activate a desired social plugin, it must first be activated by clicking the corresponding switch. Only this activation of the plugin triggers the collection of information and its transmission to the service provider. We ourselves do not collect any personal data by means of the social plugins or through their use.

We have no influence over what data an activated plugin collects or how it is used by the provider. It must currently be assumed that a direct connection to the provider’s services is established and that at least the IP address and device-related information are collected and used. There is also the possibility that the service providers attempt to store cookies on the computer used. Please refer to the privacy notices of the respective service provider for details of exactly what data is collected and how it is used.

  1. Google Ads

This website uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising programme provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

As part of Google Ads, we use what is known as conversion tracking. When you click on an advertisement placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. Cookies are small text files that the internet browser stores on the user’s computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognise that the user clicked on the advertisement and was redirected to this page.

Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained by means of the conversion cookie is used to compile conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their advertisement and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that could be used to personally identify users. If you do not wish to take part in tracking, you can object to this use by simply disabling the Google conversion tracking cookie via the user settings in your internet browser. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The storage of “conversion cookies” and the use of this tracking tool are based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise both its website and its advertising. Where corresponding consent has been requested (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), the processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

You can find more information on Google Ads and Google conversion tracking in the privacy policy of Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

You can set your browser so that you are informed when cookies are set and allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.


  1. Google Remarketing

This website uses the remarketing function of Google Inc. This function is used to present interest-based advertisements to website visitors within the Google advertising network.

On these pages, the visitor may be presented with advertisements relating to content that the visitor has previously accessed on websites that use Google’s remarketing function.

According to its own statements, Google does not collect any personal data in this process.

  1. Legal basis for the processing

Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the supply of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations as are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which the processing of personal data becomes necessary, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured on our premises and, as a result, their name, age, health insurance details or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, a hospital or other third parties. The processing would then be based on Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. This legal basis covers processing operations which are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases, where the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party, provided the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not override that interest. Such processing operations are permitted to us in particular because they were specifically mentioned by the European legislator, who took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed where the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47, second sentence, GDPR).


  1. Legitimate interests pursued by the controller or a third party in the processing

Where the processing of personal data is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest is the conduct of our business for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.


  1. Period for which the personal data will be stored

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. Once the period has expired, the corresponding data are routinely deleted, provided they are no longer required for the performance or the initiation of a contract.


  1. Statutory or contractual provisions on the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of a contract; the data subject’s obligation to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide it

We inform you that the provision of personal data is in part required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also arise from contractual provisions (e.g. information about the contracting party). It may sometimes be necessary, for a contract to be concluded, that a data subject provide us with personal data, which must then be processed by us. The data subject is obliged, for example, to provide us with personal data where our company concludes a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before providing personal data, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will inform the data subject, on a case-by-case basis, whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of a contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and what consequences the failure to provide the personal data would have.
