We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

5. Data Collection on This Website

Server Log Files

The provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits. These are:

  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the accessing device
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Cookies

This website only sets cookies with your explicit consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). On your first visit, a banner asks whether you consent to the use of analytics cookies. Your decision is stored locally in your browser.

If you consent, Google Analytics cookies are set (see section 6). If you decline, no cookies are set and no data is transmitted to third parties.

You can change or withdraw your decision at any time using the Cookie settings link in the footer of every page. Withdrawing your consent deletes the analytics cookies that were set and stops any further transmission to Google. Your decision itself is stored under the key scmotif_cookie_consent in your browser's Local Storage. This entry is strictly necessary to honour your choice, so it does not itself require consent (§ 25 (2) TDDDG).

External Resources

All fonts and assets are served locally from our own server. External services (Google Analytics) are only loaded if you have given your consent via the cookie banner.

6. Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics is only loaded with your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). Without your consent via the cookie banner, no data is transmitted to Google.

We use Google Analytics 4. IP addresses are used by Google only to derive an approximate location and are not logged or stored by Google Analytics 4. Data may be processed by Google LLC in the USA; Google is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and additionally relies on the EU standard contractual clauses. Processing by Google is carried out on our behalf on the basis of Google's data processing terms (Google Ads Data Processing Terms).

Event data is retained for two months, user data for 14 months from your last visit.

Google Analytics uses cookies to analyze website usage. The information generated by cookies is usually transmitted to and stored on a Google server.

For more information on how Google Analytics handles user data, see Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

You can also prevent data collection by Google Analytics by using a browser add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

7. Contact via Email

If you contact us by email, your inquiry and all resulting personal data (name, inquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not share this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries directed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).

8. Your Rights

You have the right at any time to:
