SSL and/or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as purchase orders or
inquiries you submit to us as the website operator, this website uses either an SSL or a TLS encryption
program. You can recognize an encrypted connection by checking whether the address line of the browser

processed exclusively via encrypted SSL or TLS connections. You can recognize an encrypted connection by
checking whether the address line of the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the
appearance of the lock icon in the browser line.
If the communication with us is encrypted, third parties will not be able to read the payment information you
share with us.

OpenStreetMap
We are using the mapping service provided by OpenStreetMap (OSM).
We embed the map data from OpenStreetMap on the server of the OpenStreetMap Foundation, St John's
Innovation Centre, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is considered
a secure third country under data protection law. This means that the United Kingdom has a level of data
protection that is equivalent to the level of data protection in the European Union. When using the
OpenStreetMap maps, a connection is established to the servers of the OpenStreetMap-Foundation. In the
process and among other things, your IP address and other information about your behavior on this website
may be forwarded to the OSMF. OpenStreetMap may store cookies in your browser or use similar
recognition technologies for this purpose.
We use OpenStreetMap with the objective of ensuring the attractive presentation of our online offers and to
make it easy for visitors to find the locations we specify on our website. This establishes legitimate grounds
as defined in Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If appropriate consent has been obtained, the processing is carried out
exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar the consent includes the storage of
cookies or the access to information in the user’s end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning

hCaptcha
We use “hCaptcha” (hereinafter referred to as “hCaptcha”) on this website. The provider is Intuition Machines,
Inc., 2211 Selig Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90026, USA (hereinafter referred to as “IMI”).
hCaptcha is being used to determine whether the entry of data into this website (e.g., into a contact form) is
being processed by a person or an automated program. For this purpose, hCaptcha analyzes the behavior
patterns of website visitors on the basis of several characteristics.
This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters a website with the activated
hCaptcha feature. For the analysis, hCaptcha uses a wide range of information (e.g., the IP address, time
spent on the website or mouse actions taken by the user). The data recorded during this analysis is
forwarded to IMI. If hCaptcha is used in the “invisible mode,” the analyses are completely conducted in the
background. Website visitors are not alerted to the performance of an analysis.
The storage and analysis of the data occurs on the basis of Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a
legitimate interest in protecting the operator’s web presentations against abusive automatic spying and
SPAM. In the event that respective consent has been obtained, the data will be processed exclusively on the
basis of Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TDDDG, if the consent comprises the storage of cookies or access to
information on the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) as defined in the TDDDG (German
Telecommunications Act). Such consent may be revoked at any time.
The processing of data is based on Standard Contract Clauses, included in the Data Processing Supplement
to the General Terms and Conditions of IMI or in the data processing agreements.

Processing of Customer and Contract Data
We collect, process, and use personal customer and contract data for the establishment, content
arrangement and modification of our contractual relationships. Data with personal references to the use of
this website (usage data) will be collected, processed, and used only if this is necessary to enable the user to
use our services or required for billing purposes. The legal basis for these processes is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
The collected customer data shall be deleted upon completion of the order or termination of the business
relationship and upon expiration of any existing statutory archiving periods. This shall be without prejudice
to any statutory archiving periods.
Data transfer upon closing of contracts for services and digital content
We share personal data with third parties only if this is necessary in conjunction with the handling of the
contract; for instance, with the financial institution tasked with the processing of payments.
Any further transfer of data shall not occur or shall only occur if you have expressly consented to the
transfer. Any sharing of your data with third parties in the absence of your express consent, for instance for
advertising purposes, shall not occur.
The basis for the processing of data is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the
fulfilment of a contract or for pre-contractual actions.
9. Custom Services
Handling applicant data
We offer website visitors the opportunity to submit job applications to us (e.g., via e-mail, via postal services
on by submitting the online job application form). Below, we will brief you on the scope, purpose and use of
the personal data collected from you in conjunction with the application process. We assure you that the
collection, processing, and use of your data will occur in compliance with the applicable data privacy rights
and all other statutory provisions and that your data will always be treated as strictly confidential.
Scope and purpose of the collection of data
If you submit a job application to us, we will process any affiliated personal data (e.g., contact and
communications data, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.), if they are required to
make a decision concerning the establishment or an employment relationship. The legal grounds for the
aforementioned are § 26 BDSG according to German Law (Negotiation of an Employment Relationship), Art.
6(1)(b) GDPR (General Contract Negotiations) and – provided you have given us your consent – Art. 6(1)(a)
GDPR. You may revoke any consent given at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be
shared with individuals who are involved in the processing of your job application.
If your job application should result in your recruitment, the data you have submitted will be archived on the
grounds of § 26 BDSG and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship
in our data processing system.
Data Archiving Period
If we are unable to make you a job offer or you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the
right to retain the data you have submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for up
to 6 months from the end of the application procedure (rejection or withdrawal of the application).
Afterwards the data will be deleted, and the physical application documents will be destroyed. The storage
serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required
after the expiry of the 6-month period (e.g., due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only
take place when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.
Longer storage may also take place if you have given your agreement (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if statutory
data retention requirements preclude the deletion.
Admission to the applicant pool
If we do not make you a job offer, you may be able to join our applicant pool. In case of admission, all
documents and information from the application will be transferred to the applicant pool in order to contact
you in case of suitable vacancies.
Admission to the applicant pool is based exclusively on your express agreement (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). The
submission agreement is voluntary and has no relation to the ongoing application procedure. The affected
person can revoke his agreement at any time. In this case, the data from the applicant pool will be
irrevocably deleted, provided there are no legal reasons for storage.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been
granted.
