We are very pleased about your interest in our association.
Data protection and human dignity are of particular importance to us.

Data protection officer 
We are not obliged to appoint an external data protection officer.
Dr. Annegret Wenz-Haubfleisch is responsible for our data protection.

Request for personal data
In most cases, it is possible to use our website without providing any personal data (e.g. name, address, e-mail address, telephone number). The collection and use of personal data of the users of our website takes place exclusively in compliance with the data protection laws applicable in Germany. In the following, we inform you of the manner, extent and purpose for which we collect and use your personal data. You can access the information on data protection on this website at any time.

Transmission and storage of data for technical reasons and for statistical and market research purposes.
When you access our website, your internet browser automatically transmits certain data to our server for technical reasons.
These are for example :
- Date and time of the page view
- The URL of the website you visited previously
- The files retrieved from our website
- The amount of data sent
- The type and version of your web browser
- Your operating system
- Your IP address.

We store this data separately from other data that you may enter when using our internet offer on our website. We are therefore unable to assign this data to you personally. It is only evaluated statistically and then deleted.

Collection and use of inventory data
An enquiry by e-mail gives us your e-mail address. We may be able to assign this to a certain person if the address has not been pseudonymised by you. We do not pass on personal data collected by us to third parties without your express consent. We only pass on inventory data to authorities if we are obliged to do so in individual cases on the basis of existing laws, for example for the purposes of criminal prosecution, averting danger or protecting copyrights.

YouTube

Our website uses YouTube plugins for the integration and display of video content. The provider of the video portal is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When a page with an integrated YouTube plugin is called up, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells YouTube which of our pages you have accessed.

YouTube can assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile if you are logged into your YouTube account. You can prevent this by logging out first.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO.

Details on the handling of user data can be found in YouTube's privacy policy at: Google Datenschutzerklärung.

Use of cookies
In order to improve the application possibilities of our internet offer and to make it more comfortable for the users, the CMS system Joomla® uses so-called "cookies", small text files which are stored on your computer and which contain information about your use of our website and the internet. You can prevent cookies from being stored on your computer by making the appropriate settings in your browser. However, it is possible that you will not be able to use our internet services to their full extent as a result.

The competent supervisory authority with regard to data protection issues is the state data protection commissioner of the federal state in which our company's registered office is located. The following link provides a list of data protection officers and their contact details: Datenschutzbeauftragter der Länder.

Data access by unauthorised persons
Data transmission via the Internet always involves the risk of unauthorised third parties gaining access to your data. Complete protection of your communication, for example by e-mail, cannot be guaranteed. Please contact us by telephone if you have any doubts or concerns.

Liability for contents and links

The contents of our pages were created with the greatest care. However, we cannot assume any liability for the correctness, completeness and up-to-dateness of the contents. As a service provider, we are responsible for our own content on these pages in accordance with the general laws pursuant to § 7 para. 1 TMG. However, according to §§ 8 to 10 TMG, we are not obliged as a service provider to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information or to investigate circumstances that indicate illegal activity. Obligations to remove or block the use of information in accordance with general laws remain unaffected by this. However, liability in this regard is only possible from the point in time at which a concrete infringement of the law becomes known. If we become aware of any such infringements, we will remove the relevant content immediately. Our website contains links to external websites of third parties over whose content we have no influence. Therefore, we cannot assume any liability for these external contents. The respective provider or operator of the pages is always responsible for the content of the linked pages. The linked pages were checked for possible legal violations at the time of linking. Illegal contents were not recognisable at the time of linking. However, permanent monitoring of the content of the linked pages is not possible without concrete indications of a legal violation.If we become aware of any infringements of the law, we will remove such links immediately.

If, contrary to expectations, you have any complaints about our website, please inform us exclusively by telephone or e-mail without any charges. When contacting us by e-mail, please include a request for a read receipt in case your e-mail is sent by mistake. This way you can be sure that your e-mail has not ended up in the spam folder and that we may not have read it as a result.

The more time-consuming involvement of a lawyer for the purpose of issuing a warning with costs expressly does not correspond to our real and presumed intention. In the event of justified objections, we will change our website immediately. Any costs incurred without prior contact and without an attempt to reach an amicable settlement will be rejected in full and may trigger a counterclaim for infringement of the aforementioned provisions.

Copyright

The contents and works created by the site operators on these pages are subject to German copyright law. Duplication, processing, distribution, or any form of commercialization of such material beyond the scope of the copyright law shall require the prior written consent of its respective author or creator. Downloads and copies of this site are only permitted for private, non-commercial use. Insofar as the content on this site was not created by the operator, the copyrights of third parties are respected. Should you nevertheless become aware of a copyright infringement, please inform us accordingly.  If we become aware of any infringements, we will remove such content immediately.
