1. Scope of processing of personal data

Our online presence uses functions provided by Defiant Inc., 800 5th Ave., Suite 4100, Seattle, WA 98104, USA (hereinafter referred to as Defiant). Wordfence Security secures our online presence and thus protects visitors to the online presence from viruses and malware.

It is possible to evaluate the behavior from the notifications sent (e.g., how often a page is accessed). For the purpose of protecting against brute force and DDoS attacks or comment spam, IP addresses are stored on the Wordfence servers. IP addresses classified as harmless are placed on a white list.

Further information on the processing of data by Defiant can be found here:

The online presence uses the plug-in to protect against viruses and malware and to defend against attacks by computer criminals.

The legal basis for the processing of users’ personal data is, in principle, the user’s consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

Use of Cookiebot

1. Scope of processing of personal data

We use features of the cookie consent solution Cookiebot from Cybot A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, Denmark (hereinafter referred to as Cybot).

Cookiebot offers a software solution that handles the collection of consent for the use of cookies and the tracking of online users. Cookiebot informs users of our website about the cookies used on our website. You also have the option of deactivating cookie groups, with the exception of functional cookies (which are necessary for the smooth display of our website). We are obliged to document your consent or refusal in accordance with Art. 7 (1) GDPR.

In particular, the following personal data is processed by Cybot:

– The IP number of the end user in anonymized form (the last three digits are set to ‘0’).

– Date and time of consent.

– Browser of the end user.

– The URL for which consent has been given.

– An anonymous, random, and encrypted key.

– The consent status of the end user, which serves as proof of consent.

Cookies from Cybot are stored on your device.

The key and consent status are also stored in the end user’s browser in the “CookieConsent” cookie so that the website can automatically read and comply with the end user’s consent for all subsequent page requests and future end user sessions for up to 12 months. The key is used to prove consent and for an option that checks whether the consent status stored in the end user’s browser is unchanged compared to the original consent submitted to Cybot.

If the “bulk consent” feature is enabled to govern consent for multiple websites through a single end user consent, Cybot also stores another separate, random, unique ID with the end user’s consent. If all of the following criteria are met, this key is stored in encrypted form in the “CookieConsentBulkTicket” cookie in the end user’s browser.

All data is hosted in an Azure data center of the cloud provider Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd, South County Business Park, One Microsoft Court, Carmanhall and Leopardstown, Dublin, D18 P521, Ireland.

Furthermore, we use Cookiebot to obtain aggregated information about end users’ selection decisions regarding accepted cookie types and a graphical representation of these in the Service Manager.

3. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

4. Duration of storage

Your personal information will be stored by Cybot for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this privacy policy or as required by law, e.g., for tax and accounting purposes.
