Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out until the 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 based on Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data 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 affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection under Art. 21 (1) GDPR).
If your personal data is processed for direct advertising purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of data concerning you for such advertising; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is associated with such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct advertising purposes (objection under Art. 21 (2) GDPR).
Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, in a commonly used, machine-readable format, or to have it transmitted to a third party. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent it is technically feasible.
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 you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Information, Blocking, Deletion, and Correction
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to receive free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipient, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correct, block or delete this data.

Right to Restrict Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address provided in the legal notice. The right to restrict processing applies in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you require them to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
- If you have filed an objection under Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data – apart from being stored – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense 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 European Union or a Member State.
