- Whenever our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the computer making the request.
- The following data is collected here: information about the browser type and the version used, the user's operating system, the IP address of the user, the date and time of access, websites from which the user's system accesses our website, websites which are accessed by the user's system through our website.
- The data is also stored in the log files of our system.
- The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
- The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to allow delivery of the website to the computer of the user. To do this, the user's IP address must be kept for the duration of the session.

- In addition, the data is used to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

- Further storage is possible.
- In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated, so that an identification of the calling client is no longer possible.
- The collection of the data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is essential for the operation of the website.
