Data protection
Scope
This data protection declaration is intended to inform the users of this website in accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act and the Telemedia Act about the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator Marcus C. Meierhoefer.
The website operator takes your data protection very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal regulations. Please remember that data transmission over the Internet can generally be subject to security gaps. Complete protection against access by strangers is not possible. Access data The website operator or site provider collects data about access to the site and saves it as “server log files”.
The following data is logged:
- Website visited
- Time at the time of access
- Amount of data sent in bytes
- Source/reference from which you came to the page
- Browser used Operating system used
- IP address used
The data collected is only used for statistical evaluations and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to subsequently check the server log files if there are concrete indications of illegal use.
Cookies
This site uses cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website. Common browsers offer the setting option not to allow cookies. Note: It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if you make appropriate settings.
Handling of personal data
The website operator only collects, uses and passes on your personal data if this is permitted by law or if you consent to the data collection. Personal data includes all information that serves to identify you as a person and that can be traced back to you – for example your name, email address and telephone number. Handling contact details If you contact the website operator using the contact options offered, your details will be saved so that they can be used to process and answer your query. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.
Handling comments and posts
If you leave a post or comment on this website, your IP address will be saved. This is for the security of the website operator: If your text violates the law, they would like to be able to track your identity. Subscriptions You have the option to subscribe to both the entire website and follow-up comments to your post. You will receive an email to confirm your email address. Apart from this, no other data is collected. The stored data will not be passed on to third parties. You can unsubscribe from a subscription at any time.
Google Analytics
This website uses the “Google Analytics” service, which is offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), to analyze how users use the website. The service uses “cookies” – text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there. IP anonymization applies on this website. The user’s IP address is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This shortening means that your IP address is no longer linked to a person. As part of the order data agreement that the website operators have concluded with Google Inc., Google Inc. uses the information collected to create an evaluation of website usage and website activity and provides services related to Internet usage. You have the option of preventing cookies from being stored on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. There is no guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies. You can also use a browser plug-in to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to Google Inc. and used by Google Inc. The following link will take you to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
Alternatively, by clicking on this link (IMPORTANT! Insert opt-out link), you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website. By clicking on the link above you will download an “opt-out cookie”. Your browser must therefore generally allow the storage of cookies. If you delete your cookies regularly, you will have to click on the link again each time you visit this website.

Use of social media plugins
This website uses Facebook Social Plugins, which is operated by Facebook Inc. (1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA). The integration can be recognized by the Facebook logo or by the terms “Like”, “Like”, “Share” in the colors of Facebook (blue and white). Information about all Facebook plugins can be found in the following link: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/
The plugin establishes a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook servers. The website operator has no influence whatsoever on the nature and extent of the data that the plugin transmits to the Facebook Inc. servers. You can find information about this here: https://www.facebook.com/help/186325668085084
The plugin informs Facebook Inc. that you have visited this website. There is a possibility that your IP address will be saved. If you are logged into your Facebook account while visiting this website, the information mentioned will be linked to it.
If you use the functions of the plugin – for example by sharing or “liking” a post – the corresponding information will also be transmitted to Facebook Inc.
Do you want to prevent the Facebook. Inc. links this data to your Facebook account, please log out of Facebook before visiting this website.
Newsletter subscription
The website operator offers you a newsletter in which he informs you about current events and offers. If you would like to subscribe to the newsletter, you must provide a valid email address.
User rights: information, correction and deletion
Upon your request, you as a user will receive free information about which personal data has been stored about you. Unless your request conflicts with a legal obligation to retain data (e.g. data retention), you have the right to have incorrect data corrected and to have your personal data blocked or deleted.
