2.2 This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential content (e.g., orders or inquiries to the data controller). You can recognize an encrypted connection by the "https://" prefix and the padlock symbol in your browser's address bar.

4) Cookies
To make your visit to our website more enjoyable and to enable the use of certain features, we use cookies, which are small text files that are stored on your device. Some of these cookies are automatically deleted after you close your browser (so-called "session cookies"), while others remain on your device for a longer period and allow us to save your website settings (so-called "persistent cookies"). In the latter case, you can find information about the storage duration in your web browser's cookie settings.
If any of the cookies we use process personal data, this processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR either for the performance of the contract, in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR in the case of consent given, or in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests in the best possible functionality of the website and a customer-friendly and effective design of the website visit.
You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and allow you to decide whether to accept them individually, or to exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or entirely.
Please note that if you do not accept cookies, the functionality of our website may be limited.
5) Making contact
5.1
eTermin
We use the services of the following provider to offer an online appointment booking function: eTermin GmbH, Mättivor 3,
6430 Schwyz, Switzerland
For the purpose of scheduling appointments, in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, first and last name as well as email address (and, if applicable, telephone number if a telephone appointment is desired) are collected and, in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, transmitted to the provider on the basis of our legitimate interest in effective customer management and efficient appointment management and stored there for appointment organization.
After the appointment has taken place or after the agreed appointment period has expired, your data will be deleted by the provider.
We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
When data is transferred to the provider's location, an adequate level of data protection is ensured by an adequacy decision of the European Commission.
5.2 WhatsApp-Business
You have the option of contacting us via the WhatsApp messaging service provided by WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. We use the so-called "Business version" of WhatsApp for this purpose.
If you contact us via WhatsApp regarding a specific transaction (for example, an order you have placed), we will store and use the mobile phone number you use with WhatsApp, as well as your first and last name (if provided), in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, to process and respond to your inquiry. Based on the same legal basis, we may ask you via WhatsApp to provide further data (order number, customer number, address, or email address) in order to assign your inquiry to a specific transaction.
If you use our WhatsApp contact for general inquiries (e.g., regarding our range of services, availability, or our website), we store and use the mobile phone number you use on WhatsApp and – if provided – your first and last name in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in the efficient and timely provision of the requested information.
Your data will only be used to answer your inquiry via WhatsApp. It will not be shared with third parties.
Please note that WhatsApp Business accesses the address book of the mobile device we use for this purpose and automatically transfers phone numbers stored in the address book to a server of its parent company, Meta Platforms Inc., in the USA. For the operation of our WhatsApp Business account, we use a mobile device whose address book contains only the WhatsApp contact data of users who have actually contacted us via WhatsApp.
This ensures that every person whose WhatsApp contact details are stored in our address book has already consented to the transfer of their WhatsApp phone number from the address books of their chat contacts, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, by accepting the WhatsApp Terms of Service upon first using the app on their device. The transfer of data from users who do not use WhatsApp and/or have not contacted us via WhatsApp is therefore excluded.
For information on the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by WhatsApp, as well as your related rights and privacy settings, please refer to WhatsApp's privacy policy: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/?eea=1#privacy-policy
We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which protects the data of our website visitors and prohibits its transfer to third parties.
The processing described above may involve data transfers to servers of Meta Platforms Inc. in the USA.
For data transfers to the USA, the provider has joined the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which, based on an adequacy decision by the European Commission, ensures compliance with the European level of data protection.
5.3 When you contact us (e.g., via contact form or email), personal data is collected. The specific data collected when using a contact form is indicated on the respective form. This data is stored and used solely for the purpose of responding to your inquiry, contacting you, and for the associated technical administration.
The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in responding to your inquiry pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Your data will be deleted after your inquiry has been fully processed. This is the case when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter has been conclusively resolved and provided that no statutory retention obligations exist.
6) Web analytics services
1&1 IONOS WebAnalytics
This website uses the web analytics service of the following provider: 1&1 IONOS Internet SE, Elgendorfer Str. 57, 56410 Montabaur, Germany
Using cookies and/or similar technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, algorithms for reading device and browser information), this service collects and stores pseudonymized visitor data, including information about the device used, such as the IP address and browser information, in order to evaluate it for statistical analysis of user behavior on our website and to create pseudonymized user profiles. Among other things, this enables the analysis of movement patterns (so-called heatmaps), which show the duration of page visits and interactions with page content (e.g., text input, scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs). Pseudonymization fundamentally precludes any direct identification of individuals. This data is not combined with clear personal data collected through other means.
All processing described above, in particular the reading or storage of information on the device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "cookie consent tool" provided on the website.
We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

If you exercise your right to object, we will cease processing the data in question. However, further processing remains possible if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.
If we process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing. You can exercise your right to object as described above.
If you exercise your right to object, we will cease processing the data in question for direct marketing purposes.
8) Duration of storage of personal data
The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing and – if applicable – additionally by the respective statutory retention period (e.g. commercial and tax law retention periods).
When processing personal data on the basis of explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, the data concerned will be stored until you withdraw your consent.
If statutory retention periods exist for data processed in the context of contractual or quasi-contractual obligations on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, this data will be routinely deleted after the expiry of the retention periods, provided that it is no longer required for the performance of a contract or for initiating a contract and/or we no longer have a legitimate interest in its continued storage.
When processing personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.
When processing personal data for direct marketing purposes on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.
Unless otherwise stated in the other information in this declaration regarding specific processing situations, stored personal data will be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
