In some cases, this personal data will be supplemented by information from public sources, such as online media or employer websites, in order to confirm your professional position.
We collect certain personal data that you provide to us voluntarily, for example when you communicate with us by e-mail or other means of communication, when you subscribe to our newsletters, when you request other documents and/or information from us and when you register for an event organised by us.

This data is not combined with other personal data.
3.2 Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.

4. Legal basis for processing personal data
The main legal bases for processing personal data are Article 13(2)(a) of the DPA and Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR (processing in direct connection with the conclusion or processing of a contract) and Article 13(1) of the DPA and Article 6(1)(a), (c) and (f) of the GDPR (consent of the data subject or justification by law and legitimate interests).
5. Storage
We will store and retain your personal data for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this data protection statement, in particular to fulfil our contractual and legal obligations. Where necessary, we will also store and retain your personal data for other purposes if and for as long as permitted by law, in particular for the defence of legal claims.
6. Transmission to third parties
We do not sell or make your personal data available to third parties. We work with a limited number of trusted external partners (e.g. IT service providers) that we have carefully selected. Some of these external partners may have access to certain personal data when providing services on our behalf, mainly for the maintenance and support of our IT systems.
7. Data security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss and unauthorised access. We regularly review our security policies and procedures to ensure that our systems are secure and protected.
This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you send us cannot be read by third parties.
In addition, we use other technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or total loss, destruction or unauthorised access by third parties.
However, we would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. e-mail communication) can be subject to security breaches. Complete protection of data against unauthorised access by third parties is not possible.
8. Exercising your rights
If you have any questions about the collection, processing or use of your personal data, or if you wish to correct, delete or restrict the processing or revoke your consent, you can contact us at any time using the contact details given in point 2 of this declaration.
You also have a right of objection and the right to transfer data (i.e. to receive a copy of your personal data for future use) and you can complain about data processing to the competent supervisory authority.
