3. use of the company website
The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data is collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible.
Data security
Personal data is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties. Our website is protected by technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction, access, modification or distribution of personal data by unauthorized persons.
Cookies
a) Session cookies/session cookies
We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your end device by the Internet browser you use. These cookies are used to process certain information about you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, on an individual basis. This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as the processing enables, for example, the reproduction of our website in different languages or the offer of a shopping cart function. These session cookies are deleted when you close your Internet browser.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, insofar as these cookies process data for contract initiation or contract processing. If the processing does not serve to initiate or execute a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
b) Third-party cookies
Our website may also use cookies from partner companies with whom we cooperate for the purposes of advertising, analysis or the functionalities of our website. Please refer to the following information for details, in particular the purposes and legal basis for processing such third-party cookies.
c) Possibility of elimination
You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by changing the settings of your Internet browser. You can also delete cookies that have already been saved at any time. However, the steps and measures required for this depend on the specific Internet browser you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation of your Internet browser or contact its manufacturer or support. In the case of so-called Flash cookies, however, processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings. Instead, you must change the settings of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the specific Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please also use the help function or documentation of your Flash player or contact the manufacturer or user support.
However, if you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may mean that not all functions of our website can be used to their full extent.
Server data
For technical reasons, in particular to ensure a secure and stable Internet presence, data is transmitted to us or to our web space provider by your Internet browser. With these so-called server log files, the type and version of your Internet browser, the operating system, the website from which you have switched to our Internet presence (referrer URL), the website(s) of our Internet presence that you visit, the date and time of the respective access and the IP address of the Internet connection from which the use of our Internet presence takes place are collected, among other things.
The data collected in this way is stored temporarily, but not together with other data about you. This data is not merged with other data sources.
This storage takes place on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality and security of our website.
The data will be deleted after seven days at the latest, unless further storage is required for evidence purposes. Otherwise, the data is excluded from deletion in whole or in part until an incident has been finally clarified
Contact form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact data you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions.
The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal email. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation. We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.
Google Maps
This website uses the Google Maps map service via an API to display geographical information in a visually appealing way and to ensure that the places we indicate on the website are easy to find. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
The provider is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
To use the functions of Google Maps, it is necessary to save your IP address. This information is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transfer. You can find more information on the handling of user data in Google's privacy policy:
https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/
Google Fonts
We use Google Fonts on our website to display external fonts. This is a service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”.
Through certification in accordance with the EU-US Privacy Shield
https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active
Google guarantees that it will follow the EU's data protection regulations when processing data in the USA.
In order to enable the display of certain fonts on our website, a connection to the Google server in the USA is established when our website is accessed. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the optimization and economic operation of our website. The connection to Google established when you visit our website enables Google to determine from which website your request has been sent and to which IP address the display of the font is to be transmitted.
Google offers under
https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated
https://policies.google.com/privacy
further information, in particular on the options for preventing the use of data.
YouTube
We use YouTube on our website. This is a video portal of YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, 94066 San Bruno, CA, USA, hereinafter referred to as “YouTube”. YouTube is a subsidiary of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”.
Through certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield.
https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active
Google, and therefore also its subsidiary YouTube, guarantees that the data protection requirements of the EU will also be complied with when processing data in the USA.
We use YouTube in connection with the “extended data protection mode” function in order to be able to show you videos. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in improving the quality of our website. According to YouTube, the “Enhanced Privacy Mode” function means that the data described in more detail below is only transmitted to the YouTube server when you actually start a video. Without this “enhanced data protection”, a connection to the YouTube server in the USA is established as soon as you call up one of our Internet pages on which a YouTube video is embedded.
The connection is necessary in order to be able to display the respective video on our website via your Internet browser. In the course of this, YouTube will at least record and process your IP address, the date and time and the website you have visited. In addition, a connection to Google's “DoubleClick” advertising network is established.
If you are logged in to YouTube at the same time, YouTube will assign the connection information to your YouTube account. If you wish to prevent this, you must either log out of YouTube before visiting our website or make the appropriate settings in your YouTube user account.
For the purpose of functionality and analysis of user behavior, YouTube permanently stores cookies on your end device via your Internet browser. If you do not agree to this processing, you have the option of preventing the storage of cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. You can find more information on this above under “Cookies”.
Further information about the collection and use of data as well as your rights and protection options in this regard can be found in the Google Privacy Policy below.

available in the data protection information.
„Facebook“-Social-Plug-in
We use the plug-in of the social network Facebook on our website. Facebook is an internet service of Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. In the EU, this service is in turn operated by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland, hereinafter both referred to as “Facebook”.
Certification in accordance with the EU-US Privacy Shield
https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active
Facebook guarantees that the data protection requirements of the EU will also be complied with when processing data in the USA.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in improving the quality of our website.
Facebook provides further information about the possible plug-ins and their respective functions at
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/
ready for you.
If the plug-in is stored on one of the pages you visit on our website, your internet browser will download a representation of the plug-in from the Facebook servers in the USA. For technical reasons, it is necessary for Facebook to process your IP address. The date and time of your visit to our website are also recorded.
If you are logged in to Facebook while you visit one of our plugged-in websites, the information collected by the plug-in about your specific visit will be recognized by Facebook. Facebook may assign the information collected in this way to your personal user account there. If you use the Facebook “Like” button, for example, this information will be stored in your Facebook user account and may be published via the Facebook platform. If you wish to prevent this, you must either log out of Facebook before visiting our website or use an add-on for your internet browser to prevent the Facebook plug-in from loading.
Facebook provides further information about the collection and use of data as well as your rights and protection options in this regard in the privacy policy available at
https://www.facebook.com/policy.php
available in the data protection information.
4. legal basis for the processing of personal data
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data required to fulfill contractual obligations to which the data subject is a party. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.
In addition, we process your data to protect our legitimate interests as the controller or the interests of a third party, unless your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, which require the protection of personal data, prevail (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.
Insofar as the processing of your personal data is necessary to fulfill legal or regulatory requirements to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In addition, we process your data if you have expressly agreed to this in advance and have therefore given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).
5. changes to these data protection provisions
We reserve the right to amend these data protection provisions at any time with effect for the future. A current version is always available on the website. Please visit the website regularly and inform yourself about the applicable data protection provisions.
6 Data erasure and storage duration
If there is no longer a legal basis for processing your data, we will delete the data or, if this is not possible, block any personal reference to you in our systems in accordance with data protection regulations.
Data may also be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.
7. disclosure of your data to third parties
We do not pass on your personal data to third parties unless you have consented to such data transfer or we are entitled or obliged to do so on the basis of another legal basis. Data will not be transferred to countries outside the EU unless we are obliged to do so due to official or court orders or you have expressly consented to a transfer to countries outside the EU.
8. order data processing
For the provision of our services, we use processors (e.g. IT service providers, postal service providers) within the EU. The disclosure of your data to them takes place in strict compliance with confidentiality and the provisions of the GDPR and the Federal Data Protection Act. We have concluded proper agreements for order processing in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR with the processors commissioned by us, who may process the data only for us and not for their own purposes. Through careful selection and regular monitoring, we ensure that our service providers take all organisational and technical measures necessary to protect your data.
9. Information about your rights
You have the following rights with regard to your personal data:
Right to information: You have the right to information free of charge about the data stored by us, in particular the purpose for which the processing takes place and how long the data is stored (Art. 15 GDPR).
Right to rectify inaccurate data: You have the right to obtain from us the immediate rectification of your personal data if it is inaccurate (Art. 16 GDPR).
Right to erasure (right to be forgotten): You have the right to obtain from us the erasure of personal data concerning you. You can request the erasure of your data, for example, if we no longer need the personal data for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed, if we should process the data unlawfully or if you have legitimately objected to the processing or if you have withdrawn your consent or if there is a legal obligation to erase it (Art. 17 GDPR).
Right to data portability: You have the right to receive from us the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format (Art. 20 GDPR), unless it has already been deleted.
Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority: If you believe that we are in breach of the GDPR by processing your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, e.g. the data protection authority responsible for your place of residence, place of work or place of data protection breach. A list of data protection officers and their contact details can be found at:

10. Objection or revocation against the processing of your data
You may revoke your consent to the processing of personal data at any time free of charge and with effect for the future. This also applies to declarations of consent that were granted before the GDPR became applicable. Please note that the lawfulness of the data processing carried out up to the revocation remains unaffected and the revocation will only be considered upon receipt by us and then for the future.
A declaration of consent can be revoked informally by e-mail to datenschutz@tiemann.eu or in writing to W. Tiemann GmbH & Co. KG, Neuenlander Str. 41-43, 28199 Bremen.
11. Opposition to advertising e-mails
