General note and mandatory information

The person responsible for data processing on this website is

Bernd Rudmann

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Only with your express consent are some data processing operations possible. A revocation of your already given consent is possible at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to appeal to the competent supervisory authority

As a data subject, you have a right of appeal to the competent supervisory authority in the event of a breach of data protection law. The competent supervisory authority with regard to data protection issues is the State Data Protection Commissioner of the federal state in which my company is based. The following link provides a list of the data protection officers and their contact details: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.

Right to data transferability

You have the right to have data, which I process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract, handed over to you or to third parties. The data will be provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible person, this will only be done as far as it is technically feasible.

Right to information, correction, blocking, deletion

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to obtain information free of charge at any time about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, its recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to correct, block or delete this data. In this regard and also for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact me at any time via the contact options listed in the imprint.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to me as the site operator, my website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This means that data that you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the “https://” address line of your browser and the lock symbol in the browser line.

Server log files

In server log files, the provider of the website automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically sends to me. These are:

  • Visited page on our domain
  • Date and time of the server request
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system in use
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 letter b DSGVO, which permits the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact form

Data transmitted via the contact form will be stored including your contact data in order to be able to process your request or to be available for follow-up questions. This data will not be passed on without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form will be processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). A revocation of your already given consent is possible at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up to revocation remains unaffected by revocation.

Data transmitted via the contact form will remain with me until you request me to delete it, revoke your consent to its storage or until there is no longer any need to store the data. Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Storage period of contributions and comments

Contributions and comments as well as related data, such as IP addresses, are stored. The content remains on my website until it has been completely deleted or had to be deleted for legal reasons.

The storage of contributions and comments is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). A revocation of your already given consent is possible at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

Subscribe to comments

As a user of my website you can subscribe to comments after you have registered. With a confirmation email I will check if you are the owner of the email address provided. You can unsubscribe from the comment subscription function at any time via a link in a subscription e-mail. Data entered to set up the subscription will be deleted if you unsubscribe. If these data have been transmitted to me for other purposes and elsewhere, they will remain still with me.

Newsletter

To send my newsletter I need an e-mail address from you. A verification of the given e-mail address is necessary and you have to agree to receive the newsletter. Additional data is not collected or is voluntary. The data will be used exclusively for sending the newsletter.

The data provided when registering for the newsletter will be processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). A revocation of your already given consent is possible at any time. To revoke your consent, simply send us an informal e-mail or use the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

Data entered to set up the subscription will be deleted in case of cancellation. If these data have been transmitted to me for other purposes and elsewhere, they will remain with me.

YouTube

For integration and display of video content my website uses plugins from YouTube. Provider of the video portal is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When a page with integrated YouTube plugin is called up, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells YouTube which of my pages you have accessed.

YouTube can directly assign your surfing behavior to your personal profile, if you are logged in to your YouTube account. By logging out you have the possibility to prevent this.

The use of YouTube is in the interest of an attractive presentation of my online offers. This represents a legitimate interest in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

Details on the handling of user data can be found in the YouTube privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

Cookies

My website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help me to make my offer more user-friendly, effective and safe.

Some cookies are “session cookies.” Such cookies are deleted automatically after your browser session ends. On the other hand, other cookies remain on your device until you delete them yourself. Such cookies help me to recognize you when you return to my website.

With a modern web browser you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Many web browsers can be configured so that cookies are deleted automatically when you close the program. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality on my website.

The setting of cookies, which are necessary for electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions you require (e.g. shopping basket), is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 letter f DSGVO. As the operator of this website, I have a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of my services. If other cookies are set (e.g. for analysis functions), these will be treated separately in this data protection declaration.

Borlabs Cookie

This website uses Borlabs cookie, which sets a technically necessary cookie (borlabs cookie) to store your cookie consent. Borlabs cookie does not process any personal data.

The borlabs cookie stores your consent that you gave when you entered the website. If you wish to revoke these consents, simply delete the cookie from your browser. When you re-enter/reload the website, you will be asked again for your cookie consent.

Google Analytics

My website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analytics service is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses “cookies.” These are small text files that your web browser stores on your end device and enable an analysis of website use. Information generated by cookies about your use of my website is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. Server location is usually the USA.

The setting of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. As the operator of this website, I have a legitimate interest in the analysis of user behaviour in order to optimise my web offer and, if necessary, advertising.

IP anonymisation

I use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymization function. It ensures that Google truncates your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before sending it to the USA. There may be exceptional cases in which Google transfers the full IP address to a server in the USA and shortens it there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to create reports on website activities and to provide me with further services related to the use of the website and the internet. The IP address transmitted by Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

Browser plugin

The setting of cookies by your web browser can be prevented. However, some functions of my website could be restricted by this. You can also prevent the collection of data regarding your website usage, including your IP address and subsequent processing by Google. This is possible by downloading and installing the browser plugin which can be reached via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Objection to data collection

You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent the collection of your information on future visits to my site: Disable Google Analytics.

For details on how Google Analytics handles user data, please see the Google privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Order processing

To fully comply with the legal data protection requirements, I have concluded a contract with Google for order processing.

Demographic characteristics at Google Analytics

My website uses the “demographic characteristics” feature of Google Analytics. It can be used to generate reports that include information about the age, gender and interests of visitors to the site. This data is derived from interest-based advertising by Google and from visitor data from third parties. It is not possible to assign the data to a specific person. You can disable this feature at any time. You can do this through the ad settings in your Google Account or by generally prohibiting the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as explained in the section “Objection to data collection”.

Twitter plugin

My website uses features of the Twitter service. The provider is Twitter Inc, 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA

When using Twitter and the “Re-Tweet” feature, websites you visit will be linked to your Twitter account and published in your Twitter feed. In the process, data is transferred to Twitter. I have no knowledge about the content of the transmitted data or the use of this data by Twitter. You can find details in the Twitter privacy policy: https://twitter.com/privacy.

You can change your privacy settings on Twitter: https://twitter.com/account/settings

Pinterest Plugin

My website uses features of the social network Pinterest. The provider is Pinterest Inc, 808 Brannan Street, San Francisco, CA 94103-490, USA.

When you access a page with Pinterest functions, your browser connects directly to the Pinterest servers. Log data is transmitted to the Pinterest servers. The servers are located in the USA. This log data may include your IP address, websites visited, browser type and settings, date and time of your request, how you use Pinterest, and cookies.

For details, please refer to Pinterest’s privacy policy: https://about.pinterest.com/de/privacy-policy.

Amazon Affiliate Program

As the operator of this website I participate in the Amazon EU Partner Program. On my pages are advertisements from Amazon as well as links to Amazon to earn money through advertising cost reimbursements. Amazon cookies are used, which allows Amazon to recognize that you have clicked an affiliate link on my site.

The storage of “Amazon cookies” is based on Art. 6 lit. f DSGVO. As the website operator, I have a legitimate interest in this, as the amount of the advertising cost reimbursement can only be determined through the cookies.

Details on the use of data by Amazon can be found in the Amazon privacy policy: https://www.amazon.de/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=footer_privacy?ie=UTF8&nodeId=3312401.

Google Web Fonts

My website uses Web Fonts from Google. Provider is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Through the use of these Web Fonts it is possible to present you with the presentation of my website that we want, regardless of which fonts are available to you locally. This is done by retrieving the Google Web Fonts from a Google server in the USA and the associated transfer of your data to Google. This is your IP address and which page you have visited on our website. The use of Google Web Fonts is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. As operator of this website I have a legitimate interest in the optimal display and transmission of my web presence.

The company Google is certified for the us-European data protection convention “Privacy Shield”. This data protection agreement is intended to ensure compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU.

You can find details about Google Web Fonts at: https://www.google.com/fonts#AboutPlace:about and further information in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy/partners?hl=de

Presence in social networks

I maintain online presences within social networks in order to communicate with the users active there or to offer information about me.

I point out that user data may be processed outside the European Union. This can result in risks for the users, because the enforcement of the users’ rights could be made more difficult. With regard to US providers certified under the privacy shield or offering comparable guarantees of a secure level of data protection, I would point out that they thereby undertake to comply with the EU’s data protection standards.

Furthermore, users’ data within social networks are generally processed for market research and advertising purposes. Thus, for example, user profiles can be created on the basis of user behaviour and the resulting interests of the users. The user profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within and outside the networks that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the users’ computers, in which the usage behaviour and interests of the users are stored. Furthermore, data may also be stored in the user profiles independently of the devices used by the users (especially if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them).

For a detailed description of the respective forms of processing and the possibilities of objection (opt-out), please refer to the data protection declarations and information provided by the operators of the respective networks.

Also in the case of requests for information and the assertion of data subject rights, I would like to point out that these can most effectively be asserted with the providers. Only the providers have access to the data of the users and can directly take appropriate measures and provide information.
