Information on data transfers to third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law and on transfers to US companies that are not DPF-certified
Among other things, we use tools from companies based in third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law, as well as US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, DPF. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these countries and processed there. We would like to point out that in such third countries, a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed.
We would like to point out that the USA, as a secure third country, generally has a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU. Data transfer to the USA is therefore permitted if the recipient has certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, DPF, or has suitable additional safeguards. Information on transfers to third countries, including the data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.
Recipients of personal data
As part of our business activities, we work with various external parties. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary in the context of contract fulfillment, if we are legally obliged to do so, for example disclosure of data to tax authorities, if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of data. When using processors, we only pass on our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke consent already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct advertising, Art. 21 GDPR
If data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR, you have the right at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims, objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR.
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected with such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will then no longer be used for the purpose of direct advertising, objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to yourself or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
Access, rectification, and erasure
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain information free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. You can contact us at any time regarding this and any other questions on the subject of personal data.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time regarding this. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
- If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the exercise, defense, or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
- If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data, apart from being stored, may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State.

LinkedIn is a social network of LinkedIn Inc., based in Sunnyvale, California, USA, which enables the creation of private and professional profiles for natural persons and company profiles. Users can maintain existing contacts within the social network and make new ones. Companies and other organizations can create profiles on which photos and other company information are uploaded in order to present themselves as employers and recruit employees. Other LinkedIn users have access to this information and can write their own articles and share this content with others. The focus of the network is on professional exchange about specialist topics with people who share the same professional interests.
When using or visiting the network, LinkedIn automatically collects data from users or visitors during use or the visit, for example username, job title, and IP address. This is done with the help of various tracking technologies. LinkedIn provides users with information, offers, and recommendations, among other things, based on the data collected in this way.
We collect your data via our company profile solely in order to facilitate possible communication and interaction with us. This collection generally includes your name, message content, comment content, and the profile information you have made publicly available.
The processing of your personal data for the purposes stated above is based on our legitimate business and communication interest in providing an information and communication channel pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If you, as a user, have given consent to data processing to the respective provider of the social network, the legal basis for processing extends to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, Art. 7 GDPR.
Due to the fact that the actual data processing is carried out by the provider of the social network, our access options to your data are limited. Only the provider of the social network is entitled to full access to your data. As a result, only the provider can directly take and implement corresponding measures to fulfill your user rights, information requests, deletion requests, objections, etc. The assertion of corresponding rights is therefore most effective directly with the respective provider.
We are jointly responsible with LinkedIn for the personal content of our company profile. Data subject rights can be asserted with LinkedIn Inc. as well as with us.
We do not make any decisions regarding the data collected on the LinkedIn page by means of tracking technologies.
