Provision of the website and creation of logfiles

Every time our website is accessed, our servers and applications automatically log data and information from the accessing computer system.

The following data are saved temporarily:

• Your IP address
• Date and time of your website visit
• The address of the website visited
• The address of the previously visited website (referrer)
• Name and version of your browser / operating system (insofar as it has been transmitted by your browser)

The data is saved in our systems’ logfiles. This data is not stored together with other personal data relating to the website visitor.

The legal basis for the temporary saving of the data and logfiles is Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The data is saved in log files in order to ensure the functional capability of the website. In addition, the data serves to optimise the web pages, eliminate faults and ensure the security of our IT systems. These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing according to Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required in order to fulfil the purpose of its collection. In the case of the collection of the data for the purpose of providing the website, this applies when the session in question is finished. In the case of saving data in logfiles, this applies after a maximum of seven days.

Data collection for the purpose of providing the website and the saving of data in logfiles are essential to operate the website. It is therefore not possible for the website visitor to object.
