Privacy Policy Below you will find the text data for your personal privacy policy for your website, based on the information you provided. If you use an input editor for your content on your website, you can copy and paste the following text directly. Alternatively, if you would like to integrate the content into your website as HTML source code, you can use the HTML source code listed below. Attention: Consent required. According to the prevailing opinion of data protection authorities and courts, you may only use numerous services with consent. This particularly applies to analysis and marketing tools (e.g., Google Analytics or meta pixels). Consent is required primarily for the following tools you have selected: Facebook, Google Maps, Instagram, Pinterest, SoundCloud, Spotify. Attention: Consent recommended. For certain services, it has not been conclusively clarified whether they require consent. However, given current legal developments, it is likely that data protection authorities and courts will affirm a consent requirement for these tools as well. If you want to avoid the legal risk of a warning or official proceedings/fines, we recommend that you also obtain consent for the following services: OpenStreetMap An overview of the consent tools we recommend can be found here: https://www.e-recht24.de/mitglieder/lp-cookieeinwilligung/. For sharing content on social media platforms, eRecht24 also offers the eRecht24 SafeSharing Tool: https://www.e-recht24.de/erecht24-safe-sharing.html. Caution: Data transfer to third countries with unsafe data protection laws According to your input, you use services from companies that originate from third countries with less secure data protection laws or that use servers from less secure third countries. All countries except those listed below are considered non-secure third countries: Andorra, Argentina, Faroe Islands, Great Britain, Guernsey, Israel, Isle of Man, Japan, Jersey, Canada (limited), New Zealand, Switzerland, Uruguay, Liechtenstein, Iceland, and Norway. Data transfer to non-secure third countries is only permitted if appropriate guarantees for correct data processing exist in the destination country. Suitable guarantees primarily include EU standard contractual clauses (sometimes also called "Model Clauses," "Standard Contractual Clauses," or "SCCs") – the standard contractual clauses must be agreed between you and the tool provider. Binding corporate rules (BCRs) can also provide a suitable guarantee for third-country transfers if these rules have been approved by an EU data protection authority. For data transfer to the USA, certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) can also be used; according to this, personal data can be transferred to US companies if the company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). We check the certifications with each update. Therefore, if a US tool appears in the list below, this means that the tool in question was not yet certified in the last generator update. A daily updated list of DPF-certified companies can be found here: https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/participant-search. The following service providers you have selected transfer data to non-secure third countries without appropriate data protection guarantees: Pinterest. For all providers that offer standard contractual clauses or have binding corporate rules, we refer to this in our data protection texts. Therefore, please ensure that the standard contractual clauses have actually been agreed between you and the provider or that the Binding Corporate Rules apply to the tool you are using. If this is not the case, you must remove the respective reference to the standard contractual clauses/Binding Corporate Rules from the privacy policy created with our tool. In this case, the use of the tool is most likely in breach of GDPR. Text version of the privacy policy for your website Privacy Policy 1.

This is a contract required by data protection law, which guarantees that the personal data of our website visitors will only be processed according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR. 4 / 183. General information and mandatory information: Data protection: The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy. When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains which data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens. We point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible. Note on the responsible body The responsible body for data processing on this website is: Markus Böll Am Vogelsang 20 78166 Donaueschingen Germany Telephone: 049/777113582 Email: markus.boell (at) gmx.de The responsible body is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.). Storage period Unless a more specific storage period has been specified within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); In the latter case, deletion occurs once these reasons no longer apply. General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR, provided that special categories of data are processed in accordance with Art. 9 (1) GDPR. In the case of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access information on your device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), data processing is additionally carried out on the basis of Section 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required to fulfill the contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The relevant legal bases in each individual case are provided in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy. Note on the transfer of data to third countries that are not secure under data protection law and the transfer to US companies that are not DPF-certified. We use, among other things, tools from companies based in third countries that are not secure under data protection law as well as US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If these tools are active, your personal data can be transferred to these countries and processed there. We would like to point out that a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed in third countries that are unsafe under data protection law. We would like to point out that the USA, as a safe third country, generally has a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU. Data transfer to the USA is permitted if the recipient is certified under the "EU-US Data Privacy Framework" (DPF) or has suitable additional guarantees. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy. Recipients of personal data: As part of our business activities, we work with various external parties. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only transfer personal data to external parties if this is necessary to fulfill a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., transferring data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in transferring the data pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the transfer of data. When using processors, we only transfer our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid contract for order processing. In the case of joint processing, a contract for joint processing is concluded. Revocation of your consent to data processing: Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation. Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct advertising (Art. 21 GDPR). If data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN PROVE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21 (1) GDPR). 6 / 18 IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED TO CONDUCT DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR SUCH PURPOSES ADVERTISING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING, IN RESPECT OF SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT ADVERTISING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21 PARA. 2 GDPR). Right of appeal to the competent supervisory authority In the event of violations of the GDPR, those affected have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged violation. This right of appeal is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies. Right to data portability You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another responsible party, this will only be done if technically feasible.

You can contact us at any time with regard to this and other questions relating to personal data. Right to restriction of processing You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases: If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request that the data processing be restricted instead of deleted. If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of deleted. If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may - apart from its storage - only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state. 7 / 18 SSL or TLS encryption This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator.
