This includes data that can be assigned to a person (e.g. your name or your e-mail address). Information that cannot be assigned to a specific or identifiable person or can only be assigned with a disproportionate amount of time, cost and effort does not fall under anonymous data (cf. § 3 Para. 6 BDSG).

In order to operate this website, personal data is collected, processed and used. Within the framework of the legal provisions, we can also evaluate usage profiles under a pseudonym for the purposes of advertising, market research and to improve our services. However, only if you have not exercised your legal right to object to the use of your data.
