If your personal data are processed, you are a data subject as defined by the GDPR and you have the following rights against the controller:
You have the right to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether we are processing personal data concerning you.
Where that is the case, you can request from the controller the following information:
(1) the purposes for which the personal data are being processed;
(2) the categories of personal data which are being processed;
(3) the recipients or categories of recipient to whom the personal data concerning you have been or will be disclosed;
(4) the envisaged period for which the personal data concerning you will be stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;
(5) the existence of the right to request rectification or erasure of personal data concerning you or restriction of processing of personal data by the controller or to object to such processing;
(6) the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
(7) where the personal data are not collected from the data subject, any available information as to their source;
(8) the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to in Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject.
You have the right to request information as to whether personal data concerning you are transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. If so, you have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards in accordance with Article 46 GDPR relating to the transfer.
You have the right to obtain from the controller the rectification and/or completion of personal data concerning you insofar as they are inaccurate or incomplete. The controller shall perform the rectification without undue delay.
You have the right to obtain from the controller restriction of processing of personal data concerning you where one of the following applies:
(1) if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
(2) the processing is unlawful, and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead;
(3) the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or
(4) you have objected to the processing in accordance with Article 21(1) GDPR pending the verification of whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override yours.
Where the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such personal data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
If you have obtained restriction of processing under the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction of processing is lifted.
You have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning you without undue delay and the controller has the obligation to erase personal data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies:
(1) the personal data concerning you are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed;
(2) you withdraw your consent on which the processing is based in accordance with point (a) of Article 6(1), or point (a) of Article 9(2) GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for the processing;
(3) you object to the processing in accordance with Article 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing in accordance with Article 21(2) GDPR;
(4) the personal data concerning you have been unlawfully processed;
(5) the personal data concerning you have to be erased for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject;
(6) the personal data concerning you have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Article 8(1) GDPR.
Where the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged in accordance with Article 17(1) GDPR to erase the personal data, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that you have requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data.
The right to erasure shall not apply to the extent that processing is necessary
(1) for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
(2) for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
(3) for reasons of public interest in the area of public health in accordance with points (h) and (i) of Article 9(2) as well as Article 9(3) GDPR;
(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) GDPR insofar as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or
(5) for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller shall communicate any rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
The controller shall inform you about those recipients upon your request.
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to the controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, where:
(1) the processing is based on consent in accordance with point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) GDPR or on a contract in accordance with point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR and
(2) the processing is carried out by automated means.
In exercising your right to data portability, you have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. The exercise of the right referred to here shall not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.
The controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Where personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for such purposes.
In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.
You have the right to withdraw your consent to data processing at any time. The withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision:
(1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between you and a data controller;
(2) is authorised under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
(3) is based on your explicit consent.
However, these decisions shall not be based on special categories of personal data referred to in Article 9(1) GDPR, unless point (a) or (g) of Article 9(2) GDPR applies and suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests are in place.
In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy in accordance with Article 78 GDPR.

In principle, we only process our users’ personal data to the extent that this is necessary to provide a functional website as well as our content and services. The processing of our users’ personal data usually only occurs with the user’s consent.

We use the open-source software tool Matomo (formerly PIWIK) on our website to analyse our users’ browsing behaviour. The software stores a cookie on the user’s computer (see above information on cookies). If individual pages of our website are accessed, the following data are stored:
Two bytes of the IP address of the user’s accessing system
The accessed web page
The website from which the user has reached the accessed web page (referrer)
The subpages that are accessed from the accessed web page
The time spent on the web page
The frequency with which the web page is accessed
The software runs exclusively on the servers of our website. Users’ personal data is only stored there. The data will not be shared with third parties.
The software is configured in such a way that the full IP addresses are not stored, but instead, 2 bytes of the IP address are masked (e.g. 12.18. xxx. xxx). In this way, the abbreviated IP address can no longer be assigned to the accessing computer.
The legal basis for the processing of the user’s personal data is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The processing of users’ personal data allows us to analyse our users’ browsing behaviour. By evaluating the data obtained, we are able to compile information on the use of the individual components of our website. This helps us to constantly improve our website and its user-friendliness. These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in processing the data in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. By anonymising the IP address, the users’ interest in the protection of their personal data is sufficiently taken into account.
The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for our record-keeping purposes.
In our case, this is after 90 days.
