Hosting and Server Logs
Hosting by united-domains
This website is hosted by united-domains GmbH, Gautinger Straße 10, 82319 Starnberg, Germany. During the technical operation of the website, the hosting provider processes data necessary to provide and secure the service. Processing on behalf of the controller is governed by Art. 28 GDPR.
Server Log Files
When a page is accessed, the data processed may include, in particular, the IP address, date and time, pages or files accessed, amounts of data transferred, and technical information about the browser, operating system and request.
This data is used for the technical provision of the website, error analysis and protection against misuse or attacks. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the secure and reliable operation of the website.
Log data is retained only for as long as necessary for the stated purpose or where legal obligations or the investigation of specific security incidents require further retention.
03 · Communication
Contact Requests and Job Applications
Contact by Email, Telephone or Form
When you contact us, we process the information you provide, particularly your name, contact details and message content, in order to handle and respond to your inquiry.
Where the inquiry relates to an existing or prospective contractual relationship, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. For other inquiries, processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR and our legitimate interest in responding to inquiries.
We retain the information for as long as necessary to process your inquiry and address any follow-up questions. Statutory retention obligations and legitimate requirements for the defense of legal claims may necessitate longer storage.
Job Applications
When you apply for a position, we process the data you submit, such as your cover letter, CV, certificates and contact details, to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The relevant legal bases may include, in particular, Section 26(1) BDSG and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
As a general rule, data is retained only for the duration of the application process and beyond that only where necessary to protect legitimate claims or comply with legal obligations. Additional inclusion in an applicant pool takes place only where an appropriate legal basis exists, in particular valid consent.
04 · Website Functions
Cookies, Technical Functions and Fonts
Technically Necessary Functions
When using the website, technically necessary information may be stored on or accessed from your device if this is strictly necessary to provide a function you have expressly requested. The exemption under Section 25(2) No. 2 TDDDG applies to these operations. Where personal data is processed in this context, the requirements of the GDPR also apply.
Analytics and Marketing
According to the currently documented website configuration, no analytics or marketing services such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads or Meta Pixel are used. This configuration also does not provide for analytics or marketing cookies that are not technically necessary.
Fonts
According to the current configuration, the fonts used on this website are hosted locally. Therefore, merely loading these fonts should not establish a direct connection to an external font provider.
05 · Multilingual Website
Language Versions with TranslatePress
Our website is available in German and English. We use the WordPress plugin TranslatePress to manage the language versions. Existing translations are stored in the WordPress database and provided for the respective language version.
According to the currently described configuration, the language is selected using the language switcher rather than automatically based on the IP address or location.
06 · External Websites
Social Networks and Google Maps
Links to Facebook and Instagram
This website contains links to our company profiles on Facebook and Instagram. According to the current integration, these are simple links rather than embedded posts. Merely visiting this website does not cause content from these platforms to be loaded through the links themselves.
If you click such a link, you will be redirected to the respective platform. The platform provider processes personal data there in accordance with its privacy policy. For users in the European Region, this is primarily Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland. If you contact us through these platforms, we process the information you provide to handle your inquiry.
Google Maps
For route planning, we may provide a standard link to Google Maps. According to the current integration, no interactive Google Maps map is embedded on this website. You will only access Google Maps when you open the link. Google may process personal data there.
Further information is available in Google’s Privacy Policy.
