The privacy statement applies only to this website. If you click a link on our website that takes you to a different site, please make sure you find out how the target site processes and collects your data. Your personal data (e.g. title, name, street address, email address, telephone number etc.) are processed only in accordance with the provisions of Austrian data protection legislations. The following provisions are intended to inform you about the kind of personal data we collect, process and use, the extent of those data and the purposes for which they are used.

We would like to point out that data transmissions through the Internet e.g. (communication by email and non-encrypted websites) can be subject to security intrusions. It is not possible to ensure seamless protection of data against interception by third parties.

If you place an order through our website, we will check the data you have entered or transmitted against our existing database, either manually or automatically, to check that our database is current and valid and, where appropriate, reconcile the data to update the data in our database. This might entail an employee from this company making contact with you. This will be by email or phone. The data you enter will be used exclusively for the purpose of processing your order, managing your registration with our site or for internal marketing purposes – data are not passed on to third parties. Data are deleted as soon as the contract has been fulfilled and there is no statutory requirement to store the data.

Information about cookies

There are three different types of cookies:

  • Session cookies that enable fundamental functions of the website to work
  • Permanent cookies that ensure the performance of the website
  • Third-party cookies intended to improve your browsing experience

Our Internet pages partly use data packages called cookies. Cookies will not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies help to make our website more user-friendly, more effective and more secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored locally on your computer by your browser.
Most of the cookies used by us are session cookies, which are automatically deleted when you navigate away from our site. Other cookies will remain on your computer or device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser next time you visit our site.
You can set your browser to notify you about the cookies that are stored on your system and only allow individual cookies to be stored, exclude cookies in certain circumstances or as a general rule and activate automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. If you deactivate cookies, the functionality of this website may be impaired.

Functional restrictions without cookies

If you generally do not permit us to use cookies, certain functions of certain pages will not work the way you expect them to. In particular, logins will not work.

Server log files

The provider of this website automatically records and stores information in server log files and these are automatically transmitted to us. That information is as follows:

  • Browser type and version
  • Your operating system
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server enquiry
  • IP address

This data cannot be assigned to an individual. This data will not be combined with data from other sources. We reserve the right to check the data subsequently if specific signs of illegal use are detected.

SSL encryption

In order to ensure the security of the site and the confidential content passed through the site, as in the case of enquiries you send to us as a website operator, we use SSL encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address (URL) bar of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and you will see a padlock symbol in the address bar.
When the SSL encryption mode is activated, data that you transmit to us cannot be intercepted by third parties.

The right to information

According to the new EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to know, free of charge, what data are recorded about you and, where applicable, the right to rectification, blocking or erasure of those data. Questions of this nature can be submitted to the email address given on the Legal note page of the website.

This data will only be used by us to send you the requested information and not be forwarded to third parties. You may withdraw your consent to the data and your e-mail address being stored and their use for sending the Newsletter at any time, for example by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in the Newsletter. Your withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
