We comply with the data protection law applicable in Germany. You can access this declaration on our website at any time. However, we would like to expressly point out at this point that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail or in other ways via social networks) can lead to security gaps and that data transmission cannot be completely protected against access by third parties. The use of the contact details in our legal notice for commercial advertising is expressly not desired unless we have given our prior written consent or a business relationship already exists with you. The provider and all persons named on this website hereby object to any commercial use and disclosure of their data. You can visit our website without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (name, address or e-mail address) is collected on our website, this is done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. If a contractual relationship is to be established between you and us, its content is to be developed or amended or you send us an enquiry, we collect and use your personal data insofar as this is necessary for these purposes. We call this data inventory data.

We collect, process or use personal data insofar as this is necessary to enable you to use our website (referred to as usage data). However, all personal data is only stored for as long as this is necessary for the stated purpose (namely the processing of an enquiry or the execution of a contract). The retention periods under tax and commercial law are taken into account. By order of the competent authorities, we may also provide information about this data (inventory data) in individual cases, insofar as this is necessary for the purposes of criminal prosecution, to avert danger, to fulfil the statutory duties of the constitutional protection authorities or the military counter-intelligence service or to enforce intellectual property rights.

If personal data (e.g. name, e-mail) is collected by us in the context of a comment function when you comment on a post, we would like to point out that we only collect this data to the extent that you have provided us with the data. When a comment is published, the e-mail address you provide will be saved but not published. Your name will be published if you have not written under a pseudonym.

Information on the rights of data subjects

The data subject has the right to obtain from the controller confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed, and, where that is the case, access to the personal data and the information specified in Art. 15 GDPR.

The data subject has the right to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her and, where applicable, the completion of incomplete personal data (Art. 16 GDPR).

The data subject has the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay where one of the grounds listed in Art. 17 GDPR applies, e.g. if the data is no longer required for the purposes pursued(right to erasure).

The data subject has the right to obtain from the controller restriction of processing where one of the conditions listed in Art. 18 GDPR applies, e.g. if the data subject has objected to processing, for the duration of the verification by the controller.

The data subject has the right to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her. The controller will then no longer process the personal data unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims (Art. 21 GDPR).

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, every data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes the GDPR (Art. 77 GDPR). The data subject may exercise this right before a supervisory authority in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement.

The competent supervisory authority in Lower Saxony is
