Privacy statement

We (BWO Marketing Service GmbH) take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We want you to know when we collect which data and how we use it.

Data Security

We have taken technical and organisational measures to ensure that the data protection regulations are observed both by us and by the external service providers commissioned by us.

We point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Access information

We automatically collect and store information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us, based on our legitimate interest. The following data is logged:

  • Website visited
  • Time at the time of access
  • quantity of data sent in bytes
  • Source/reference from which you came to the page
  • browser used
  • Operating system used
  • IP address used

The data is stored for security reasons, e.g. in order to clarify cases of misuse. These data are not combined with other data sources. We reserve the right to check these data subsequently if we become aware of concrete indications of an illegal use.

SSL encryption (HTTPS protocol)

To protect your transmitted data in the best possible way, the website operators use SSL encryption. You can recognize encrypted connections by the prefix "https://" in the page link in the address line of your browser. Unencrypted pages are marked with "http://".

All data that you transmit to this website - such as inquiries or logins - cannot be read by third parties thanks to SSL encryption.

Handling of personal data

Personal information is information that can be used to learn your identity. This includes information such as your name, address, postal address, telephone number. Information that is not associated with your identity (such as the number of users of the website) is not included.

The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data.

As far as personal data (e.g. name, address or e-mail addresses) are collected on our pages, this is always on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.

Use of cookies

The website uses so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. They do no damage to your computer. Cookies serve to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies". They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit our website.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or generally and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. When cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses the "Google Analytics" service, which is provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland) for analysis of website usage by users. The service uses "cookies" - text files which are stored on your terminal. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymization is used on this website. The IP address of users within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area will be reduced. This reduction eliminates the personal reference to your IP address. As part of the contract data agreement concluded between the website operators and Google Ireland Limited, Google uses the information collected to evaluate the use of the website and website activity and to provide services related to Internet use.

You have the option of preventing cookies from being stored on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. There is no guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.
