As a matter of principle, we do not use fully automated decision-making including profiling in accordance with Article 22 DS-GVO.

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session. These purposes are also our legitimate interest in data processing according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DS-GVO.

Server log data and the IP address are retained and subsequently deleted, for example to protect the security of the website against attacks. The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DS-GVO.

Consequently, there is no possibility for the user to object. We delete the data from the file system after 2 months and the backup copies of the data after a further 4 months.

The analysis of website visits is carried out on internal systems with the help of Matomo (https://matomo.org/matomo-on-premise/ formerly Piwik). The data is only processed anonymously and therefore not passed on to third parties.

Personal data is not collected or processed beyond the cases mentioned above, unless you expressly consent to further processing.
