We appreciate your interest in our website. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we provide detailed information about how we handle your data.
You can visit our website without providing any personal information. Each time you access a website, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the access. This access data is evaluated solely for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offering. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our offering in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, which prevail within the framework of a balancing of interests. All access data is only processed for as long as is necessary to achieve the aforementioned processing purposes.
1.1 Hosting
The services for hosting and displaying the website are partially provided by our service providers as part of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise stated in this privacy policy, all access data and all data collected in forms provided for this purpose on this website are processed on their servers. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please contact them using the contact details described in this privacy policy.
Our service providers are located and/or use servers in the following countries for which the European Commission has determined an adequate level of data protection: USA.
The adequacy decision for the USA serves as the basis for transfers to third countries, provided the respective service provider is certified. Service providers from the USA are generally certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If service providers are not certified under the DPF, standard contractual clauses have been concluded as appropriate safeguards.
1.2 Content Delivery Network
To shorten loading times, we use a so-called content delivery network (“CDN”) for some of our offerings. This service delivers content, such as large media files, via regionally distributed servers of external CDN service providers. Therefore, access data is processed on the service providers’ servers. Our service providers work for us as part of a contract processing agreement. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our collaboration with you, please use the contact options described in this privacy policy.

We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us when contacting us (e.g., via contact form or email). Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we absolutely need the data to process your contact, and without it we cannot send the contact. The data collected is evident from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide to process your inquiries in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
After your customer inquiry has been fully processed, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the expiry of the retention periods under tax and commercial law in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to use the data in any other way that is permitted by law and about which we will inform you in this declaration.
3.1 General information
To make visiting our website more attractive and enable the use of certain functions, we use technologies on various pages, including so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files that are automatically stored on your device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted after the end of the browser session, i.e., after you close your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your device and allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit (persistent cookies).
Protection of privacy on end devices
When you use our online services, we use technologies that are strictly necessary to provide the telemedia service you have expressly requested. Storing information on your device or accessing information already stored on your device does not require your consent.
For functions that are not absolutely necessary, the storage of information on your device or access to information already stored on your device requires your consent. Please note that if you do not grant your consent, parts of the website may not be fully usable. Your consent, if granted, will remain in effect until you adjust or reset the relevant settings on your device.
Any downstream data processing through cookies and other technologies
We use technologies that are absolutely necessary for the use of certain functions of our website (e.g., website preference settings). These technologies collect and process IP addresses, the time of visits, device and browser information, as well as information about your use of our website (e.g., information about your preferences). Within the framework of a balancing of interests, this serves the overriding legitimate interest in an optimized presentation of our offering in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
We also use technologies to fulfill the legal obligations to which we are subject (e.g., to be able to prove consent to the processing of your personal data), as well as for web analytics and online marketing. Further information on this, including the respective legal basis for data processing, can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy.
You can find the cookie settings for your browser under the following links: Microsoft Edge™ / Safari™ / Chrome™ / Firefox™ / Opera™
If you have consented to the use of these technologies in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, you can revoke your consent at any time by sending a message to the contact option described in the privacy policy. Alternatively, you can also access the following link: https://www.kienzler-wolf.com/cookie-einstellungen. If you do not accept cookies, the functionality of our website may be limited.
3.2 Use of the Jimdo Consent Manager Tool to manage consents
We use the Jimdo Consent Manager Tool on our website to inform you about the cookies and other technologies we use on our website, as well as to obtain, manage and document your consent to the processing of your personal data by these technologies, if required. This is necessary according to Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR to fulfill our legal obligation under Art. 7 (1) GDPR to be able to prove your consent to the processing of your personal data, to which we are subject. The Jimdo Consent Manager Tool is an offer from Jimdo GmbH, Stresemannstrasse 375, 22761 Hamburg, Germany (“Jimdo”). After you submit your cookie declaration on our website, Jimdo’s web server saves your IP address, the date and time of your declaration, browser information, language and URL from which the declaration was sent as well as information about your consent behavior. In addition, a cookie is used that contains the information about your consent behavior. Your data will be deleted after 365 days unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to use your data in any other way that is permitted by law and about which we will inform you in this declaration.
Our service providers are located and/or use servers in the following countries for which the European Commission has determined an adequate level of data protection: USA.
The adequacy decision for the USA serves as the basis for transfers to third countries, provided the respective service provider is certified. Service providers from the USA are generally certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If service providers are not certified under the DPF, standard contractual clauses have been concluded as appropriate safeguards.
Information on third country transfers (data transfer to third countries)
We use technologies from service providers on our website whose headquarters and/or server locations may be located in third countries outside the EU or EEA. If there is no adequacy decision from the EU Commission for this country, an adequate level of data protection must be ensured through other appropriate safeguards.
Appropriate safeguards in the form of contractually agreed standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission or binding corporate rules are generally possible, but require prior review by the contracting parties to determine whether an adequate level of protection can be ensured. According to the case law of the European Court of Justice, additional protective measures may be necessary for this purpose.
We have generally agreed to the standard data protection clauses issued by the EU Commission with the technology providers we use that process personal data in a third country. Where possible, we also agree on additional safeguards to ensure adequate data protection in the third countries without an adequacy decision.
Notwithstanding this, it may happen that, despite all contractual and technical measures, the level of data protection in the third country does not correspond to that of the EU. In these cases, we will ask you, if necessary, for your consent to the transfer of your personal data to a third country in accordance with Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR as part of the cookie consent.
In particular, there is a risk that local authorities in the third country may not be granted sufficiently restricted access rights to your personal data from a European data protection perspective, that we as the data exporter or you as the data subject may not be aware of this and/or that you may not have sufficient legal remedies available to prevent this and/or to take action against such access.
In particular, the following countries are currently among the third countries without an adequacy decision from the EU Commission (example list):
China
Russia
Taiwan
You can find out to which third countries we transfer data in the data protection information for the tool and/or service we use for consent management/Consent Manager Platform (CMP).
Jimdo Tracking
We use the tracking and analysis tool provided by Jimdo GmbH, Stresemannstrasse 375, 22761 Hamburg, Germany. Pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, this serves to protect our legitimate interests within the framework of a balancing of interests, namely the purposes of statistically evaluating your user behavior on our website and ensuring a needs-based, user-friendly design and continuous optimization of our offerings.
Jimdo does not use cookies for tracking. Your data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information) is automatically collected, combined, and processed using pseudonymized user profiles for the purposes described.
Your data is truncated, stored as a hash value, and additionally encrypted with a random value that changes every 24 hours. This prevents any conclusions about the identity of individual users.
There will be no further merging of the data.
We use the following cookies and other third-party technologies on our website. Unless otherwise stated for the individual technologies, this is done on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. Once the purpose no longer applies and we no longer use the respective technology, the data collected in this context will be deleted. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. Further information on your options for revoking your consent can be found in the section “Cookies and other technologies”. Further information, including the basis of our cooperation with the individual providers, can be found for the individual technologies.
