7. Security measures
Taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the varying likelihood of risk realization and the varying severity of the risks for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in accordance with Art. 32 GDPR to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk.
These measures include in particular but are not limited to the ability to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical access to the data as well as actual data access, data entry, data transfer, and the ability to ensure data availability and data separation.
In addition, we have established procedures which ensure the protection of the rights of data subjects, the erasure of data and reaction to an endangerment of the data. Moreover, we consider the protection of personal data already in the development and/or selection of hardware, software and processes, according to the principle of data protection by design and by default (Art. 25 GDPR).
8. Cooperation with processors and third parties
Where we disclose, transfer or otherwise grant access to, data to other persons and companies (processors or third parties) in the context of our data processing, this is in all cases done on the basis of a statutory authorisation or when you have given your consent to the processing.
Or the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation or the processing is carried out for the purposes of our legitimate interests, e.g. when we engage agents, web hosting companies etc.). When we engage third parties to process data based on a so-called contract for data processing on behalf, this is done on the basis of Art. 28 GDPR.
9. Transfer to third countries
If we process data in a third country, i.e. a country outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA) or such data processing in a third country occurs in the context of services provided by third parties engaged by us or in the context of disclosure or transfer of data to third parties, this is done only if this is required for the performance of our (pre-)contractual duties or based on your consent or to comply with a legal obligation or for the purposes of our legitimate interests. Subject to any existing statutory or contractual authorisations, we only process data, or have data processed, in a third country if the special requirements under Art. 44 et seqq. GDPR are satisfied.
This means that the processing is based, for instance, on special safeguards such as the official recognition that the data protection level in the third country satisfies EU standards (which is for instance the case with the “Privacy Shield” for the USA) or on compliance with special officially recognized contractual obligations (so-called standard contractual clauses).

15. Final declaration
This data protection is worked out properly to protect your personal data and privacy in all aspects. We provide all organisational and technical solutions to reach the highest possible security of your data.
Nevertheless, due to the fact that data protection by third-party providers, ccokies/plugins, Google and all social media channels is not in our hands and not in our reach of responsibility, we CANNOT guarantee either organisational nor technologically, the protection of your personal data by these third-party providesr or authorities.
If you have any questions – also regarding leaks and insufficiencies by law, changes, enhancements, etc. of this privacy policy – please contact us directly. Then we can find together a solution for all parties (please compare also the German „Online-Streitbeilegungsverfahren”) and to prevent any claims.
