7. Deletion and blocking
Your personal data will be stored until the stated purposes have been achieved or as long as we have a legitimate interest in storing it.
After that, the data will be deleted unless otherwise agreed with you or if there are legal archiving obligations (e.g. due to commercial or tax law). If archiving is required by law, the data will be blocked from other access. These documents will be deleted and destroyed after expiration of the legal retention periods as part of regular actions in accordance with data protection law.
If you have consented to the collection, processing and use of your data, we store and use your data indefinitely until revoked or the purpose for which you gave your consent no longer applies. Thereafter, the consent and processing data will be archived until the statute of limitations expires (regularly three years) for legal defense purposes (legal basis Art. 17 para. 3 lit. e GDPR).
If you no longer wish to receive advertising from us, we will use your name, address and, if applicable, email address for blocking purposes in corresponding lists with which we match our advertising measures so that you no longer receive any further advertising. Deletion in this sense therefore initially means that your data is blocked in our systems, in particular for advertising and marketing activities (legal basis Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). The data will - if necessary - continue to be processed for purposes other than advertising, for example in the context of contract processing and, if necessary, warranty as well as commercial and tax law documentation (legal basis Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b u. c GDPR).

1. Technical information and cookies
You can visit our site without providing any personal information. When you visit our websites, even if this is done via a link in a newsletter or an advertisement, for example, certain data is nevertheless collected and stored in so-called log files. Recorded - even if the visit is made via newsletter links or advertising links on the Internet, if necessary - only access data without direct personal reference, such as
- the Internet page from which we are visited
- the page that is opend
- Type and version of your browser,
- Time and date of access
- the operating system on which the browser is running
- the name of your internet service provider
- the internet address of the person accessing the site (IP address)
- products and content in which the visitor is interested and the degree of interest, such as duration, frequency, interaction with forms, navigation elements and links
It is not possible for us to draw any conclusions about you on the basis of this data, and we do not merge the above data with your personal data without your consent.
The IP address is made available by our hoster, but for data protection reasons it is overwritten with an "x" after 7 days and thus anonymized.
We have also tried to shorten the IP address so that it is difficult or almost impossible for certain partners who collect this IP address as part of their services to trace it back to your person.
If we include third-party content on our pages (e.g. embedded films or other information), these receive your IP address for this purpose alone, as otherwise the content cannot be delivered to your browser.
