3. data processing when visiting our websites

It is generally possible to use our website without actively providing personal data. However, every time you visit our website, i.e. even when using it for purely informational purposes, we collect various data and information for technical reasons and store it in so-called log files or server log files (log files) on our server. This only concerns the personal or personally identifiable data that your browser transmits to our server.

Recorded and stored:

  • the IP address (Internet Protocol address),
  • the date and time of access to our website,
  • the browser software/browser types (computer programs for displaying websites) used to access our website as well as their versions and language,
  • the operating system and version used by the person accessing our system,
  • the Internet service provider of the accessing system,
  • Content of the request (content of the specific pages accessed),
  • Access status/HTTP status code (response provided by the server to each HTTP request, representing the status of the request),
  • the website from which our website is accessed,
  • Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

The storage of the IP address - even if only for a short time - is technically necessary due to the way the Internet works. However, before we process and store your IP address, it is shortened and only used in this unrecognizable (anonymous) form. The full IP address is not stored. It is no longer possible to identify you after it has been shortened. We also do not use the other information and data mentioned above to draw conclusions about you and/or to identify you. Data that makes it possible to identify you will be anonymized as soon as possible. The data and information listed above are collected by us exclusively to display our websites to you and to ensure their stability and security and to optimize our websites in this respect. The collection of the aforementioned data therefore serves the purpose of improving the data security of the programs and systems we use. In addition, we use the data for the anonymous, statistical evaluation of your movements on our websites. The log files are stored separately from your other personal data, which you may have provided to us yourself when visiting our website, and are not merged with this data. The log files are deleted after 7 days. The legal basis for the collection of the aforementioned data is our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) in the functionality and security of our websites. In addition, we have a legitimate interest in using the anonymous or anonymized data to evaluate user behavior on our website in order to assess the effectiveness of our website design and structure.
