2. General notes and mandatory information
Data protection
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and in conformance with both the legal regulations governing data protection and this data protection declaration.
When you use this website, various elements of your personal data are collected. Personal data is data with which you personally can be identified. The present data protection declaration explains which data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose it is used.
We would point out that there may be security vulnerabilities associated with transmitting data via the internet (e.g., e-mail communication). It is not possible to prevent your personal data entirely from being accessed by third parties.
Right of complaint to the regulatory authority with jurisdiction
In the event that the data protection laws are violated, the affected individual is entitled to complain to the regulatory authority with jurisdiction. The regulatory authority responsible for us and for complaints against us is the
Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht

bzw. poststelle@lda-bayern.de
Right to data portability
You have the right to request that data we process automatically following your consent or for fulfilling a contract be sent to yourself or to a third party in a standard, machine-readable format. If you request that the data be transmitted directly to another responsible party, we will only do this if it is technologically possible.
SSL and TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries you send to us as the website operator, this website uses SSL and TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection when the address line in your browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and a padlock symbol appears in your browser line.
When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.
Information, locking, deletion
Under the terms of the prevailing statutory provisions, you have the right to receive information about the personal data we have stored for you, where it came from, its intended recipients and the purpose for which the data is being processed, and if applicable the right to have it corrected, blocked for access or deleted. You can exercise these rights at any time and at no cost. For more information about these and other questions relating to data protection, you can contact us at any time at the address given above (see Point 1).
Withdrawing your consent to process your data
Many data processing operations cannot be carried out without your express consent. You can withdraw consent you have given at any time. To do this, you simply need to send us an e-mail to this effect, you do not need to submit a form. The legality of the data processing up to the time of the withdrawal is unaffected by the withdrawal.
Opposition to advertising e-mails
We herewith oppose the use of the contact data we publish in compliance with our legal obligation to post Impressum (imprint) information for sending advertising and information materials unless it has been explicitly solicited. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to institute legal proceedings against the unsolicited delivery of advertising information, using spam e-mails, etc.

Cookies
Some of our internet pages use cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and they do no contain viruses. We do not collect any personal data with these cookies. Cookies are primarily designed to make our internet offering more user-friendly, more effective and more secure. Cookies are small text files which are downloaded to your computer and stored by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are "session cookies". They are deleted automatically at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them manually. These cookies enable us to identify your browser again the next time you visit the website.
You can configure your browser to inform you when cookies are placed and to allow a cookie to be used only in a single case, to block the use of cookies in certain cases or generally, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. If cookies are disabled, you may not be able to access the full functionality of this website.
Cookies which are essential for carrying out the electronic communication process or providing certain functions requested by you (e.g., shopping cart functions) are stored in accordance with the provisions of Article 6 Para. 1f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure technically faultless and optimised provision of its services. If other cookies (e.g., cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are dealt with separately in this data protection declaration.
Server log files
The website provider automatically collects and stores information in server log files, which your browser sends to us automatically. This information consists of:
- Browser type and browser version
- Operating system user
- Referrer URL
- Host name of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
This data is not merged with other data sources.
The basis for data processing is Article 6 Para. 1b) GDPR, which permits processing of data for the performance of a contract or in support of activities prior to entering into a contract.
Contact form
When you send enquiries to us using a contact form, the information you provide in the form including the contact information you supply in the form is stored by us to enable us to process your enquiry and answer any follow-up questions. We do not communicate this data to anyone without your consent. The information you enter in the contact form is thus processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Article 6 Para. 1a) GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time. To do this, you simply need to send us an e-mail to this effect, you do not need to submit a form. The legality of the data processing operations up to the time of the withdrawal is unaffected by the withdrawal.
We keep the information you enter in the contact form until you ask us to delete it, or you withdraw your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the information no longer exists (e.g., when processing of your enquiry is completed). Mandatory legal provisions – particularly retention periods – remain unaffected.
4. Analysis tools and advertising

Upon request from the operator of this website, Google will use this information to assess your use of the website, to compile reports about the website activities, and to provide the website operator with additional services relating to use of the website and the internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser for analysis with Google Analytics is not merged with other data by Google.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font is used by your computer.
