4. SERVER LOG FILES
The provider of the website automatically collects and stores information (browser type and browser version, operating system used, referrer URL, host name of the accessing computer, time of the server request and IP address) in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits.
The collected data is used to ensure the smooth connection of the website, to ensure the straightforward use of our website and to evaluate system security and stability. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use. A combination of this data with other data sources is not made.

5. COOKIES
Session cookies
We only use technically necessary session cookies on our website. Cookies are text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your computer by the Internet browser you use. Through these cookies, certain information, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, will be processed to an individual extent.
These session cookies are technically necessary for the proper functioning of this website and they make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as the processing enables, for example, the display of our website in different languages (and means that your language preference is remembered for your next visit).
The legal basis for the processing of your data is our legitimate interest in improving the functionality of our website and its proper functioning (section 165 para 2 of the TKG 2021 in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR).
6. MATOMO ANALYTICS
We use Matomo Cloud for our website. This is an analysis tool with which we can analyse the use of our website. Your IP address, the web page(s) of our website that you visit, the website that linked to our website (referrer URL), the time you spend on our website and the frequency with which you visit one of our web pages are processed.
Matomo is configured on our website in such a way that no cookie is set on your device via your Internet browser. Your data will not be transferred to third countries outside the European Economic Area.
In addition, we use Matomo with the anonymization function “Anonymize Visitor IPs”. This anonymization function shortens your IP address by two bytes so that it is impossible to assign it to you or to the Internet connection you are using.
If you object to this processing, you also have the option of cancelling the analysis by way of the so-called opt-out. By confirming the link
a cookie is stored on your device via your Internet browser, which prevents further analysis. Please note, however, that you must click the above link again if you delete the cookies stored on your device.
7. COOPERATION WITH PROCESSORS AND THIRD PARTIES
If, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies (processors or third parties), transmit it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this will only be done on the basis of legal permission, if you have consented, if a legal obligation provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests.
All processors are contractually obligated by us on the basis of Art. 28 of the GDPR to comply with the applicable data protection provisions.
8. DATA SECURITY
We use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your (personal) data from unauthorized, illegal or accidental access, processing, loss, use and manipulation.
Notwithstanding our security measures, it cannot be ruled out that information you disclose to us via the Internet, in particular in the context of unencrypted e-mails, may be viewed and used by other persons.
Please note that we therefore accept no liability whatsoever for the disclosure of information due to errors in data transmission not caused by us and/or unauthorized access by third parties.

There is no automated decisionmaking or profiling.
