General Privacy Statement
By visiting and using our website, you consent to the collection, processing, and use of data according to the following statements and regulations. Our website can generally be visited without registration. In this process, data such as accessed pages or names of accessed files, date, and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without these data being directly related to your person. Personal data, especially name, address, telephone number, or email address, is collected on a voluntary basis wherever possible. Data will not be disclosed to third parties without your consent.
The collection and processing of the mentioned access data is only carried out for the purpose of system administration, system security, optimization of the offer, and statistical evaluations. We expressly reserve the right to retrospectively evaluate access data, if technically possible, in the event of unlawful use and unlawful attacks on our websites, provided there is sufficient suspicion based on specific indications.
The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from the purposes of data collection listed above. In no case do we use the collected data to draw conclusions about you as a person.
Cookie Policy
Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that allow specific, user-related information to be stored on the user’s device while using the website. Cookies enable us to determine usage frequency and number of users of the pages, analyze user behavior, and make our offer more user-friendly.
The data processed by cookies is required for the aforementioned purposes to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties according to Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR.
Cookies cannot be used to start programs or transmit viruses to a computer. Based on the information contained in cookies, we can facilitate navigation and enable the correct display of our web pages.

Tracking Measures
The following tracking measure is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR. With the tracking measures used, we want to ensure a needs-based design and continuous optimization of our website. On the other hand, we use tracking measures to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing our offer for you.

The respective data processing purposes and data categories can be found in the corresponding tracking tools.
Google Analytics
Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses cookies. These are small text files that allow specific, user-related information to be stored on the user’s device. These enable an analysis of the use of our website by Google. The information collected by the cookie about the use of our pages (including your IP address) is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
We would like to point out that Google Analytics on this website has been extended to include the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” in order to ensure anonymous collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). If anonymization is active, Google shortens IP addresses within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area, which means that no conclusions can be drawn about your identity.
Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google complies with the privacy provisions of the “Privacy Shield” agreement and is registered with the “Privacy Shield” program of the US Department of Commerce and uses the information collected to evaluate the use of our website, to compile reports for us in this regard, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.

Google Maps
This website uses the Google Maps API to visually display geographical information, in particular the geographical location of our law firm’s office. Google Maps is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. When using Google Maps, Google also collects, processes, and uses data about the use of map features by visitors.

Google AdWords
Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you reached our website via an ad placed by Google, Google Adwords will set a cookie on your computer. The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Therefore, cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers.
The information obtained through the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers will be informed of the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they will not receive any information that allows them to personally identify users.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can refuse to accept the necessary cookie setting – for example, by configuring your browser settings to generally disable automatic cookie setting or by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “googleleadservices.com”.
Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not wish to record measurement data. If you delete all your cookies in the browser, you must reset the respective opt-out cookie. Google’s privacy policy for conversion tracking can be found here: (https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html).
Google Webfonts
To display our content consistently and graphically appealing across browsers, we use the script and font libraries Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) on this website. Google Webfonts are transferred to your browser’s cache to prevent multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Webfonts or blocks access, content will be displayed in a standard font.
Calling script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible – but currently unclear whether and for what purposes – that operators of such libraries may collect data.
You can find the privacy policy of the library operator Google here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
Privacy Policy for Social Networks
On our website, based on Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f DSGVO, we use social plugins of the social networks Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest to make our website better known. The underlying advertising purpose is to be regarded as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR. The responsibility for data protection-compliant operation is to be ensured by their respective provider. The integration of these plugins by us is done using the so-called two-click method to best protect visitors to our website. If you visit such a profile, personal data may be transmitted to the provider of the social network. It is possible that in addition to storing the data you have specifically entered in this social medium, further information may be collected, processed, or used by the provider of the social network. We are not informed about the specific practices of the providers/platforms of social networks, as these generally constitute trade secrets that are not disclosed to us or third parties.
In addition, the provider of the social network may collect, process, and use the most important data of the computer system from which you visit it – for example, your IP address, the type of processor used, and browser version including plugins.
If you are logged into your personal user account during your visit to such a social network, this social network can associate the visit with this account. If you do not wish such an assignment, you must log out of your account before visiting our profile.
Please refer to the respective provisions of the respective provider for the purpose and scope of data collection by the respective social network, as well as the further processing and use of your data and your rights in this regard:
