(4) Privacy Policy for the Use of Facebook Plugins (Like Button)
Our pages integrate plugins from the social network Facebook, provided by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA. You can recognize the Facebook plugins by the Facebook logo or the “Like” button (“Gefällt mir”) on our site. An overview of Facebook plugins can be found here: developers.facebook.com.
When you visit our pages, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Facebook server via the plugin. Facebook thereby receives the information that your IP address has visited our site. If you click the Facebook “Like” button while logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages to your Facebook profile. This enables Facebook to associate your visit to our pages with your user account. We would like to point out that, as the provider of the pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Facebook. For more information, please refer to Facebook’s privacy policy at facebook.com.
If you do not want Facebook to associate your visit to our pages with your Facebook account, please log out of your Facebook user account.

(5) Privacy Policy for the Use of Google Maps
We use the “Google Maps” component on our site. “Google Maps” is a service provided by Google Inc., Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Each time this component is called up, Google sets a cookie to process user settings and data when displaying the page on which the “Google Maps” component is integrated. This cookie is generally not deleted when the browser is closed but expires after a certain period unless you delete it manually beforehand. If you do not agree with this processing of your data, you can deactivate the “Google Maps” service and thereby prevent the transmission of data to Google. To do so, you must deactivate the JavaScript function in your browser. However, please note that in this case, you will not be able to use “Google Maps” or will only be able to use it to a limited extent. The use of “Google Maps” and the information obtained via “Google Maps” is subject to the Google Terms of Use at www.google.de as well as the additional terms and conditions for "Google Maps" at www.google.com.

(6) When you contact us by e-mail or via a contact form, the data you provide (your e-mail address, and if applicable, your name and telephone number) will be stored by us to answer your questions. The data collected in this context will be deleted once storage is no longer necessary or processing will be restricted if there are statutory retention obligations.

• Right of access,
• Right to rectification or erasure,
• Right to restriction of processing,
• Right to object to processing,

§ 3 Collection of Personal Data When Visiting Our Website

(1) When using the website purely for informational purposes—meaning you do not register or otherwise provide us with information—we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure stability and security. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1) sentence 1 letter f GDPR.
The data collected includes:

• IP address
• Date and time of the request
• Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
• Content of the request (specific page)
• Access status/HTTP status code
• Amount of data transmitted in each case
• Website from which the request originates
• Browser
• Operating system and its interface
• Language and version of the browser software.

(2) In addition to the aforementioned data, cookies are stored on your computer when you use our website. Cookies are small text files stored on your hard drive and assigned to the browser you use, which provide certain information to the party setting the cookie (in this case, us). Cookies cannot run programs or transmit viruses to your computer. They serve to make the online offering more user-friendly and effective overall.

(3) Use of Cookies

a) This website uses the following types of cookies, the scope and function of which are explained below:

b) Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. These include session cookies in particular. They store a so-called session ID, which can be used to assign various requests from your browser to the same session. This allows your computer to be recognized when you return to our website. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close your browser.

c) Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete cookies at any time in your browser’s security settings.

d) You can configure your browser settings according to your preferences, for example, to refuse the acceptance of third-party cookies or all cookies. Please note that you may not be able to use all functions of this website if you do so.

e) We use cookies to recognize you on subsequent visits if you have an account with us. Otherwise, you will need to log in again for each visit.

f) Use of Matomo This website uses the open-source web analytics service Matomo. Matomo uses “cookies,” which are text files stored on your computer that enable us to analyze your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is stored on our server. The IP address is anonymized before storage.
The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website will not be passed on to third parties. You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.
If you do not agree to the storage and use of your data, you can deactivate the storage and use here. In this case, an opt-out cookie will be stored in your browser, preventing Matomo from storing usage data. If you delete your cookies, this also deletes the Matomo opt-out cookie, and the opt-out must be reactivated when you return to our site.

g) Privacy Policy for the Use of Google Analytics (with Anonymization Function)

The controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) into this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and evaluation of data on the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analytics service collects, among other things, data about which website a person came from (the "referrer"), which subpages of the website were accessed, how often, and for what duration a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is mainly used to optimize a website and for cost-benefit analysis of internet advertising.

The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The controller uses the "_gat._anonymizeIp" extension for web analysis via Google Analytics. This extension causes Google to truncate and anonymize the IP address of the data subject if access to our websites occurs from a member state of the European Union or from another contracting state of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze visitor flows on our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us that show activities on our websites, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.

Google Analytics sets a cookie on the data subject’s IT system. The nature of cookies has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. Each time a page of this website operated by the controller and containing a Google Analytics component is accessed, the internet browser on the data subject’s IT system is automatically prompted by the Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. Through this technical process, Google becomes aware of personal data such as the IP address of the data subject, which Google uses, among other things, to determine the origin of visitors and clicks, and subsequently to enable commission settlements.

Personal information such as access times, the location from which access originated, and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject is stored via the cookie. During each visit to our websites, this personal data, including the IP address of the data subject’s internet connection, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may transfer this personal data to third parties collected via this technical process.

The data subject may, as already described above, prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time via a corresponding setting in their internet browser and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a browser setting would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the data subject’s IT system. Furthermore, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the internet browser or other software programs.

In addition, the data subject has the option to object to the collection of data generated by Google Analytics relating to the use of this website and to the processing of this data by Google, and to prevent such processing. To do so, the data subject must download and install a browser add-on available at https://tools.google.com. This browser add-on uses JavaScript to inform Google Analytics that no data and information about website visits may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered an objection by Google. If the data subject’s IT system is later deleted, reformatted, or reinstalled, the browser add-on must be reinstalled to disable Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or any other person within their sphere of control, it is possible to reinstall or reactivate the browser add-on.

If you visit our site via a mobile device (smartphones, tablets, etc.), you must instead click this link (status: opt-out cookie set) to prevent tracking by Google Analytics within this website in the future. This is also an alternative to the browser add-on mentioned above. By clicking the link, an opt-out cookie will be set in your browser, which is valid only for this browser and this domain. If you delete cookies in this browser, the opt-out cookie will also be deleted, and you must click the link again.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google can be found at https://www.google.de/ and at http://www.google.com/. Google Analytics is explained in more detail at https://www.google.com.

§ 4 Objection or Withdrawal of Consent to the Processing of Your Data

(1) If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you may withdraw it at any time. Such a withdrawal affects the lawfulness of the processing of your personal data after you have declared it to us. The lawfulness of data processing carried out on the basis of your consent before its withdrawal remains unaffected.

(2) Where we base the processing of your personal data on a balancing of interests, you may object to the processing. This is the case in particular if the processing is not necessary for the performance of a contract with you, as explained in the following descriptions of the functions. When you lodge such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of a justified objection, we will review the situation and either cease or adjust the data processing, or demonstrate our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.

(3) You may, of course, object to the processing of your personal data for purposes of advertising and data analysis at any time. You can inform us of your objection to advertising by contacting us at the following details: info@woehwa.com or by post to:
WÖHWA GmbH
Öhringer Straße 6
74629 Pfedelbach
Abteilung Datenschutz.
