The processing of data entered in the membership application form is based on a legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

By providing the membership application form, we aim to enable easy contact and registration. The information you provide is stored for processing the request and possible follow-up questions.

Use of Script Libraries (Google Web Fonts)

Type and Purpose of Processing:

To display our content consistently across browsers and in a visually appealing way, we use "Google Web Fonts" by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter "Google") on this website.

Google’s privacy policy can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Legal Basis:

The legal basis for embedding Google Web Fonts and the associated data transfer to Google is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

Recipients:

Accessing the script or font libraries automatically establishes a connection to the provider. It is theoretically possible – though currently unclear for what purposes – that Google collects data in this case.

Storage Period:

We do not collect personal data through the embedding of Google Web Fonts.

Further information about Google Web Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

Transfer to Third Countries:

Google processes your data in the USA and has committed to the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Provision Required or Voluntary:

Providing personal data is neither legally nor contractually required. However, correct display of content using standard fonts may not be possible otherwise.

Withdrawal of Consent:

JavaScript is regularly used to display content. You can object to data processing by disabling JavaScript in your browser or using a JavaScript blocker. Please note that this may limit website functionality.

Use of Google Maps

Type and Purpose of Processing:

We use Google Maps on this website. Google Maps is operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter "Google"). This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and enables convenient use of map functions.

More information about data processing by Google can be found in the Google Privacy Policy, where you can also adjust your personal privacy settings.

Detailed instructions for managing your own data with Google products can be found here.

Legal Basis:

The legal basis for embedding Google Maps and the associated data transfer to Google is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

Recipients:

By visiting the website, Google receives information that you accessed the respective subpage of our website. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account you are logged into, or if no account exists. If you are logged into Google, your data is directly assigned to your account.

If you do not want the data assigned to your Google profile, log out before activating the map. Google stores data as usage profiles and uses it for advertising, market research, and/or tailored website design. You have the right to object to the creation of such user profiles by contacting Google.

Storage Period:

We do not collect personal data through the embedding of Google Maps.

Transfer to Third Countries:

Google processes your data in the USA and has committed to the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Withdrawal of Consent:

If you do not want Google to collect, process, or use data about you via our website, you can disable JavaScript in your browser. Please note that this may limit website functionality.

Provision Required or Voluntary:

Providing your personal data is voluntary and based solely on your consent. Restricting access may lead to limited website functionality.

SSL Encryption

To protect your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption methods (e.g., SSL) via HTTPS.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to adjust this privacy policy to ensure compliance with current legal requirements or to reflect changes in our services, e.g., the introduction of new features. The updated privacy policy applies to your next visit.
