Cookies may be used for this purpose. Cookies are small text files that are stored locally in the cache of the site visitor\u2019s Internet browser. Among other things, the cookies enable the recognition of the Internet browser. If data collected using Matomo technology (including your pseudonymised IP address) is transferred to Matomo servers in New Zealand and processed for usage analysis purposes, we inform you that the European Commission has issued a so-called adequacy decision for New Zealand, which certifies compliance with European data protection standards for international data transfers.<br \/>\nThe pseudonymised information generated by the cookie is not used to personally identify the visitor to this website and is not merged with personal data about the bearer of the pseudonym.<br \/>\nAll processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading out information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 letter a GDPR. Without this consent, Matomo will not be used during your visit to the website.<br \/>\nYou can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.

If you do not wish to have your data assigned to your account, you must log out before clicking on the play button.<br \/>\nAll the above-mentioned processing, in particular the setting of cookies for reading out information on the end device used, only takes place if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service via the \u201ccookie consent tool\u201d provided on the website.<br \/>\nFor data transfers to the USA, the provider participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission.<br \/>\n7.2 Google Maps<br \/>\nOur website uses Google Maps (AP\u2019I) of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (\u201cGoogle\u201d). Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (country) maps in order to display geographical information visually. Using this service will show you our location and will make it easier for you to find us.<br \/>\nWhen you access the sub-pages that contain the Google Maps map, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers. When using Google Maps, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA. This is regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in with or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your information will be directly associated with your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google saves your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates them. Such an evaluation takes place according to Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR, on the basis of the legitimate interests of Google in the insertion of personalized advertising, market research and\/or demand-oriented design of its website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. If you want to do so, you must contact Google to exercise this right.<br \/>\nIf you do not agree to the future transmission of your data to Google in the context of using Google Maps, you may completely deactivate the Google Maps web service by switching off the JavaScript application in your browser. In this case, Google Maps as well as the map display on this website cannot be used.<br \/>\nThe Google terms of use can be found at: https:\/\/policies.google.com\/terms?hl=en. The additional terms of use can be found at: https:\/\/www.google.com\/intl\/en-US_US\/help\/terms_maps.html.<br \/>\nYou can find detailed information on data protection in connection with the use of Google Maps on Google\u2019s website (\u201cGoogle Privacy Policy\u201d) at: https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy?hl=en.<br \/>\nTo the extent required by law, we have obtained your consent to the processing of your data as described above in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. In order to exercise your revocation, please follow the procedure described above for submitting an objection.<br \/>\nFor data transfers to the USA, the provider participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission.<br \/>\nFurther information on Google\u2019s privacy standards can be found here: https:\/\/business.safety.google\/privacy\/<\/p>\n<p>8) Tools and Miscellaneous<br \/>\n8.1 This website uses a so-called \u201ccookie consent tool\u201d to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The \u201ccookie consent tool\u201d is displayed to users in the form of an interactive user interface when they access the page, on which consent for certain cookies and\/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking the appropriate box.<br \/>\nUsing the tool, all cookies\/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user provides the corresponding consent by ticking the corresponding box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the respective end device of the user if consent has been granted.<br \/>\nThe tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed.<br \/>\nIf, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point GDPR based on our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website.<br \/>\nFurther legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) point c GDPR. As the responsible party, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent.<br \/>\nFurther information on the operator and the setting options of the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.<br \/>\n8.2 Wordfence<br \/>\nFor security purposes, this website uses the service of the following provider: Defiant Inc, 800 5th Ave Ste 4100, Seattle, WA 98104, USA<br \/>\nThe provider protects the website and the associated IT infrastructure from unauthorised third-party access, cyber attacks and viruses and malware. The provider collects the IP addresses of users and, if necessary, further data on their behaviour on our website (in particular URLs accessed and header information) in order to detect and defend against illegitimate page accesses and dangers. In doing so, the collected IP address is compared with a list of known attackers. If the captured IP address is identified as a security risk, the provider can automatically block it from accessing the website. The information collected in this way is transferred to a server of the provider and stored there.<br \/>\nThe described data processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interests in protecting the website from harmful cyber attacks and in maintaining structural and data integrity and security.<br \/>\nIf visitors to the website have login rights, the provider also sets cookies (= small text files) on the respective end device used by the visitor. With the help of the cookies, certain location and device information can be read, which makes it possible to assess whether the login-authorised access originates from an authorised person. At the same time, access rights can be evaluated via the cookies and released via a website-internal firewall according to the authorisation level. Finally, the cookies are used to register irregular access by website administrators from new devices or new locations and to notify other administrators of this. These cookies are only set if a user has login rights. The provider does not set cookies for website visitors without login authorisation. Insofar as personal data is processed via the cookies, the processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in preventing illegitimate access to the website administration and in the defence against unauthorised administrator access.<br \/>\nWe have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our website visitors\u2019 data and prohibits unauthorised disclosure to third parties.<br \/>\nFor the transfer of data to the USA, the provider invokes standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which are intended to ensure compliance with the European level of data protection.<\/p>\n<p>9) Rights of the Data Subject<br \/>\n9.1 The applicable data protection law grants you the following comprehensive rights of data subjects (rights of information and intervention) vis-\u00e0-vis the data controller with regard to the processing of your personal data:<br \/>\n\u2013 Right of access by the data subject pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to erasure (\u201cright to be forgotten\u201d) pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to be informed pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to withdraw a given consent pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR.<br \/>\n9.2 RIGHT TO OBJECT<br \/>\nIF, WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF A CONSIDERATION OF INTERESTS, WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA ON THE BASIS OF OUR PREDOMINANT LEGITIMATE INTEREST, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THIS PROCESSING WITH EFFECT FOR THE FUTURE ON THE GROUNDS THAT ARISE FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION.<br \/>\nIF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED.

Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (country) maps in order to display geographical information visually. Using this service will show you our location and will make it easier for you to find us.<br \/>\nWhen you access the sub-pages that contain the Google Maps map, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers.

If you are logged in to Google, your information will be directly associated with your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google saves your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates them. Such an evaluation takes place according to Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR, on the basis of the legitimate interests of Google in the insertion of personalized advertising, market research and\/or demand-oriented design of its website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. If you want to do so, you must contact Google to exercise this right.<br \/>\nIf you do not agree to the future transmission of your data to Google in the context of using Google Maps, you may completely deactivate the Google Maps web service by switching off the JavaScript application in your browser.

The \u201ccookie consent tool\u201d is displayed to users in the form of an interactive user interface when they access the page, on which consent for certain cookies and\/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking the appropriate box.<br \/>\nUsing the tool, all cookies\/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user provides the corresponding consent by ticking the corresponding box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the respective end device of the user if consent has been granted.<br \/>\nThe tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed.<br \/>\nIf, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point GDPR based on our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website.<br \/>\nFurther legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) point c GDPR. As the responsible party, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent.<br \/>\nFurther information on the operator and the setting options of the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.<br \/>\n8.2 Wordfence<br \/>\nFor security purposes, this website uses the service of the following provider: Defiant Inc, 800 5th Ave Ste 4100, Seattle, WA 98104, USA<br \/>\nThe provider protects the website and the associated IT infrastructure from unauthorised third-party access, cyber attacks and viruses and malware. The provider collects the IP addresses of users and, if necessary, further data on their behaviour on our website (in particular URLs accessed and header information) in order to detect and defend against illegitimate page accesses and dangers. In doing so, the collected IP address is compared with a list of known attackers. If the captured IP address is identified as a security risk, the provider can automatically block it from accessing the website. The information collected in this way is transferred to a server of the provider and stored there.<br \/>\nThe described data processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interests in protecting the website from harmful cyber attacks and in maintaining structural and data integrity and security.<br \/>\nIf visitors to the website have login rights, the provider also sets cookies (= small text files) on the respective end device used by the visitor. With the help of the cookies, certain location and device information can be read, which makes it possible to assess whether the login-authorised access originates from an authorised person. At the same time, access rights can be evaluated via the cookies and released via a website-internal firewall according to the authorisation level. Finally, the cookies are used to register irregular access by website administrators from new devices or new locations and to notify other administrators of this. These cookies are only set if a user has login rights. The provider does not set cookies for website visitors without login authorisation. Insofar as personal data is processed via the cookies, the processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in preventing illegitimate access to the website administration and in the defence against unauthorised administrator access.<br \/>\nWe have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our website visitors\u2019 data and prohibits unauthorised disclosure to third parties.<br \/>\nFor the transfer of data to the USA, the provider invokes standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which are intended to ensure compliance with the European level of data protection.<\/p>\n<p>9) Rights of the Data Subject<br \/>\n9.1 The applicable data protection law grants you the following comprehensive rights of data subjects (rights of information and intervention) vis-\u00e0-vis the data controller with regard to the processing of your personal data:<br \/>\n\u2013 Right of access by the data subject pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to erasure (\u201cright to be forgotten\u201d) pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to be informed pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to withdraw a given consent pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR;<br \/>\n\u2013 Right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR.<br \/>\n9.2 RIGHT TO OBJECT<br \/>\nIF, WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF A CONSIDERATION OF INTERESTS, WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA ON THE BASIS OF OUR PREDOMINANT LEGITIMATE INTEREST, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THIS PROCESSING WITH EFFECT FOR THE FUTURE ON THE GROUNDS THAT ARISE FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION.<br \/>\nIF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED. HOWEVER, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO FURTHER PROCESSING IF WE CAN PROVE COMPELLING REASONS WORTHY OF PROTECTION FOR PROCESSING WHICH OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS.<br \/>\nIF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA WHICH ARE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES.
