Data Security
General
This data protection declaration is intended to inform the users of the website about the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator.
As the website operator, we take data protection very seriously and treat your personal data confidentially and only in accordance with the statutory provisions. We recommend that you read our data protection declaration at regular intervals, as it may change as a result of the constant further development of our website or offers or as a result of legal or official requirements.
In this data protection declaration, we use terms (e.g. "personal data" or "processing") that are defined in Art. 4 of the DS-GVO.
Access data
On the basis of our legitimate interest (see Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DS-GVO), we collect data on accesses to our website and store them in the server's log files.
The following data is logged in this way:
- Requested page
- Referrer URL
- Date and time of the server request
- Status of the server request
- Amount of data transferred
- IP address
- User agent (browser & operating system)
These log files are stored for a maximum of 7 days and then deleted. The data is stored solely for security reasons, e.g. to be able to clarify cases of abuse, and is not merged with other data sources. If data must be retained for evidentiary reasons, it is exempt from deletion until the incident has been finally clarified. The same settings and rules also apply to the data servers "daten.verwaltungsportal", "fotos.verwaltungsportal.de", "vorschau.verwaltungsportal.de" and "layout.verwaltungsportal.de", which belong to the backend system of our website provider.
Cookies
This website uses cookies to enhance the usability, functionality and security of the website. Cookies are small files that are stored on your terminal device. Your browser accesses these files. This enables the individual browser to be distinguished from others. The use of cookies enables the website to offer functions that would not be possible without cookies. This applies in particular to simple menu navigation and other individual website settings. The cookies for these functions usually have a maximum life of 24 hours and are not used to identify visitors.
Modern browsers offer the option of not allowing cookies and thus generally deactivating them for one or all websites. When using this browser function, it is not guaranteed that all functions of this website can be used without restrictions.
Collection and processing of personal data
In principle, it is possible to use our website without providing personal data. However, should the user wish to use a function that requires the provision of personal data, the website operator will only process the personal data with a corresponding legal basis or with the consent of the person concerned. Personal data is any information that can be attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person - for example, your name, email address or telephone number.
On our site, we offer a contact form. There, we process personal data such as name, e-mail, telephone number and content details from the form. We only process this personal data with the express permission of the data subjects and in compliance with the applicable data protection regulations and in compliance with the DS-GVO. The processing is based on our legitimate interest in fulfilling our contractually agreed services and optimising our online offer.
Handling of contact data
If you contact us using the contact options offered, your details will be processed for the purpose of processing and responding to your enquiry. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.
Handling of comments, contributions and forms
If you post contributions or comments on this website, your IP address may be stored. This is done on the basis of legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO and serves the security of us as the operator of this website. Should your comment or contribution violate applicable law, we as the operator can be prosecuted for this, which is why we have an interest in the identity of the actual author.
SSL encryption
If SSL encryption is activated on this website, sensitive data that you transmit to us via this website (e.g. by contact form) cannot be read by third parties. You can recognise an active encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If encryption is active, the data you transmit to us via the website cannot be read by third parties.
Use of a 2-click solution for iframe integrations
A 2-click solution for so-called iframe integrations is activated on our website. This function ensures that no connection is established with the servers of the provider of the respective website when you call up a page of our website that contains such integrations of third-party websites. By clicking on the window, however, you can display the contents and thereby confirm the deviating data protection conditions of the integrated websites. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the third-party websites as well as your rights in this respect and setting options for protecting your privacy can be found in the data protection information of the respective website or provider.
Use of social media links
The sharing functions on the website are so-called share links. As these are pure links and not an integration, they do not pose a data protection risk. The social networks are only called up if you explicitly click on or activate these links.
Newsletter
On our website we offer a newsletter that informs you about current events and offers. To subscribe to the newsletter, you must provide a valid e-mail address. You will then be asked by e-mail to confirm your subscription via an activation link (using the so-called double opt-in procedure). Otherwise, your e-mail address will be automatically deleted from the newsletter system after 48 hours. By subscribing to the newsletter, you agree to receive it and to the explained procedure.
We use the system of our website to send the newsletter. The e-mail address will not be passed on to third parties.
Revocation and unsubscription: You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at any time and thus unsubscribe from the newsletter. After you have unsubscribed, your e-mail will be deleted from the newsletter system immediately. At the end of each newsletter you will find the link to cancel or unsubscribe.
Google Recaptcha
To protect against misuse of forms, the ReCaptcha from Google can be used, whereby the optional parameter "remoteip" is not set in the API query. When using the captcha, your browser downloads the required data from Google. In the process, your browser establishes a connection to Google's servers, so that Google gains knowledge of the call and your IP address via our website. The operator of this site has no influence on this data transmission.
The use of Google's Recaptcha is in the interest of preventing misuse of forms and is intended to affect the user-friendliness of the website as little as possible. The captcha offers one of the most user-friendly captchas on the market due to its mostly automatic recognition and wide range of functions and thus represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DS-GVO.
When calling up the Google Recaptcha, deviating data protection provisions of the Google company apply. You can find more information on this at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
Google Maps
This website can use Google Maps to display site plans. When a map is called up from Google Maps, data is transmitted to Google's servers and stored there. The operator of this site has no influence on this data transmission.
The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers and an easy location of the places indicated by us on the website. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
When calling up Google Maps, deviating data protection provisions of the Google company apply. You can find more information on this at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
Google Web Fonts
For the uniform display of fonts, this website can use the so-called Google Web Fonts. When using these fonts, your browser downloads the required fonts from our website system and stores them in the browser cache in order to display the fonts correctly. During this process, your browser does not establish a connection to Google's servers, so that Google does not gain any knowledge of the call or your IP address.
Rights of the user
As a user, you have the right to request free information about what personal data has been stored about you. You also have the right to have inaccurate data corrected and to have your personal data processed restricted or deleted. If applicable, you can also exercise your right to data portability, insofar as this is technically possible and does not affect the rights and freedoms of other persons. If you believe that your data has been processed unlawfully, you may lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority.
Deletion of data
As a user, you have the right to have your data deleted, unless this conflicts with a legal obligation to retain data. Data stored by us will be deleted if it is no longer necessary for its intended purpose or if there are no legal retention periods. If deletion is not possible because the data is required for permissible legal purposes, data processing will be restricted. In this case, the data will be blocked and no longer processed for other purposes.
Right of objection
Users of this website may exercise their right to object to the processing of their personal data at any time.
If you wish to have your personal data corrected, blocked, deleted or accessed, or if you have any questions regarding the collection, processing or use of your personal data, or if you wish to withdraw your consent, please contact one of our employees using the contact details provided above.
