2. Collection and storage of personal data; the nature and purpose of their use
a) When visiting the website
Whenever you access our website, the browser used on your end device automatically sends information to our website’s server. That information is temporarily stored in what is called a “log file”. The following information is thereby collected without any action on your part and stored until it is automatically deleted:
The above data will be processed by us for the following purposes:
The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest arises from the data collection purposes listed above. On no account will we use the collected data for the purpose of making inferences about your identity. We also use cookies as well as analysis and marketing services when you visit our website. You can find more detailed explanations on this subject under points 5 – 12 of this Data Protection Declaration.
b) When using our contact form
For questions of any kind, we offer the option of contacting us via a form provided on the website. In doing so, it is necessary to provide your name, a valid e-mail address and your specific enquiry so that we know who the enquiry is from and can answer it. Further information can be provided voluntarily. The personal data collected by us for the use of the contact form will be automatically deleted after your request has been fulfilled, unless another legitimate basis (e.g., a specific order) justifies further processing.
Data processing for the purpose of establishing contact is carried out on the basis of your specific enquiry, pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR.
c) When using our newsletter
On our website, you have the option of subscribing to a free e-mail newsletter. If you register for the newsletter, the data from the input mask will be transmitted to us.
In addition, the following data are collected on registration:
Your consent to the data processing will be obtained in the course of the registration process and reference will be made to this Data Privacy Declaration. If you commission us with the provision of services and provide us with your e-mail address, it may subsequently be used to send you newsletters. In such a case, only direct advertising for our own similar goods or services will be sent via the newsletter.
No data are transferred to third parties in connection with the processing of data for sending out newsletters. The data are used exclusively for sending out the newsletter. The purpose of collecting the user’s e-mail address is to deliver the e-mail newsletter. The collection of other personal data during the registration process serves to prevent misuse of the services or the e-mail address The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. The user’s email address will thus be stored for as long as their subscription to the newsletter is active.
Any other personal data collected during the registration process are usually deleted after a period of seven days.
The subscription to the newsletter can be cancelled by the user concerned at any time. A link for this purpose can be found in each newsletter. The link also enables a user to revoke their consent to the storage of personal data collected during the registration process. The legal basis for processing data after the user has registered for the newsletter is the user’s consent (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR). The legal basis for sending the newsletter as a result of the sale of goods or services is Art. 6 (1)(f) in conjunction with Section 7 (3) of the German Unfair Competition Act (UWG).
d) When you place an order
In the event that you place an order with us, we will store your personal data – usually, in addition to your name, the contact details for invoicing, as well as the telephone number of, if necessary, a further contact person for processing the order. The storage period for these data will be in conformity with the applicable legal regulations. The basis for the data storage is Art 6 (1)(b), as well as Section14b of the German Turnover Tax Act (UStG).
In order to fulfil the contractual relationship, we may transfer contact details (usually only the name and mobile number) of the Customer and of the contractor commissioned by us (e.g., the contact details of the bus driver) to the other party involved, pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(b) of the GDPR; this may also include transfer to other EU countries (e.g., in the case of orders in Switzerland).

Cookies do not allow a server to read private data from your computer, or the data stored by another server. They do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Unless specifically regulated below, we base our use of cookies on Art. 6 (1)(f) of the GDPR. The purpose of the processing is to improve the functioning of our website.

5. Use of Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thus offers a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law (see https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
Google Analytics uses “cookies” – text files that are placed on your computer and enable an analysis of the use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website will usually be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymisation on this website, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within Member States of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information on our behalf, for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services to us relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics will not be combined with other data by Google. You can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software; however, we hereby draw your attention to the fact that, in that case, you may not be able to make full use of all the functions of this website. You can also prevent the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) from being collected to Google and prevent the processing of those data by Google through downloading and installing the browser plugin, which is available at the following link: (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).
We hereby draw your attention to the fact that Google Analytics has been extended by the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” on this website, to ensure the anonymised collection of IP addresses (or what is called “IP masking”). You can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by clicking on the link below. An opt-out cookie will then be set, which prevents any further collection of your data when visiting this website. This procedure is particularly advisable when accessing our website via mobile devices. For further information on terms of use and data protection, please visit (www.google.com/analytics/terms/en.htm) or www.google.com/intl/en/analytics/privacyoverview.html.
We base the use of the aforementioned analysis tool on Art.6 (1)(f) of the GDPR: the data processing is carried out to analyse user behaviour and is therefore necessary for the protection of our legitimate interests.
