Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which the ELTEN is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) DSGVO serves as the legal basis.
If the processing of personal data is necessary to safeguard the ELTEN’s legitimate interests, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DPA serves as the legal basis.

Data erasure / storage period
Your personal data will be deleted as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. Furthermore, data may be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other regulations to which the ELTEN is subject. The data will also be deleted when a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

Persistent cookies are used with your consent. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO. You can revoke this consent at any time. Revocation of consent does not affect the legality of the processing that has taken place on the basis of the consent until revocation. You can set your Internet browser so that our cookies cannot be stored on your terminal device or so that cookies already stored are deleted. If you do not accept cookies, this can lead to restrictions in the function of the Internet pages.

The legal basis for processing your personal data using third-party cookies is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO. In this case you can also revoke your consent at any time.

The following third-party cookies are used:
Google Fonts
Google Maps
DoubleClick
Matomo (Piwik)

Use of DoubleClick by Google
Our website uses the online marketing tool DoubleClick by Google. DoubleClick uses cookies to deliver ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads more than once. Google uses a cookie ID to help identify which ads are shown in which browser and to prevent them from being shown more than once. DoubleClick may also use cookie IDs to track conversions related to ad requests. For example, if a user sees a DoubleClick ad and then later visits the advertiser’s website using the same browser and makes a purchase.
Because of the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google’s server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of these tools and therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge: Through the integration of DoubleClick, Google receives the information that you have called up the corresponding part of our website or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, it is possible that the provider will find out your IP address and save it.
For more information about DoubleClick by Google, please visit https://www.google.de/doubleclick and http://support.google.com/adsense/answer/2839090, and for general information about Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy. Alternatively, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) website at http://www.networkadvertising.org. Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active.

Integration of other Google services
Within our online offer, we use content or service offers from third parties on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 letter a) DSGVO in order to integrate their content and services, such as videos or fonts (hereinafter referred to uniformly as “content”). This always presupposes that the third-party providers of such content are aware of the IP address of the users, as without the IP address they would not be able to send the content to their browsers. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. We make every effort to use only such content whose respective providers use the IP address only to deliver the content. Third party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as “web beacons”) for statistical or marketing purposes. Pixel tags” can be used to evaluate information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website.
The following presentation offers an overview of other Google services and their contents, together with links to their data protection declarations, which contain further information on processing:
