What data do we collect when you visit our website?

When you visit our website, our servers temporarily store each access in a log file. The following technical data is collected without your intervention and stored by us until automated deletion, as in principle with every connection to a web server:

• the IP address of the requesting computer,
• the operating system of your computer,
• the browser you are using (type, version, and language),
• name of the IP address range,
• the date and time of the server request,
• the web page from which access was made (referrer URL), possibly with the search terms used, and
• the status code (for example, error message, debug information).

The collection and processing of these data are carried out for the purpose of enabling the use of our website (establishing a connection), ensuring system security and stability over the long term, and optimizing our internet offering as well as for internal statistical purposes. It is within our legitimate interest to process such data to ensure a functioning website service.

The IP address will also be used together with the other data in the event of attacks on the network infrastructure or other unauthorized or abusive use of the website to identify offenders in connection with civil or criminal proceedings. The processing of this data is in our legitimate interest to track your visit to our website and to improve the website accordingly.
