DATA TRANSFER OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA
At present a transfer to countries outside the European economic area is neither carried out nor planned, otherwise the corresponding legal requirements will be created.

SECURITY
We use technical and organisational security measures to protect your data from manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

COOKIES
We make use of cookies on our website. A cookie is a small file that is stored on your computer when you visit a website. If you visit the website again, the cookie indicates that it is a repeated visit. The cookie contains a unique number and, if applicable, a date and no personal information. The cookie is not suitable to identify you on the websites of third parties, including the websites of the analytics providers.

You can configure your browser to refuse the acceptance of cookies in principle or to inform you in advance if a cookie is stored. Please refer to your Internet browser’s instruction manual for more information.
We do not use IP addresses or cookies to personally identify you. We use the systems with the aim of increasing the efficiency of our website and our marketing.

VISIT TO THIS WEBSITE
We collect and store the IP address assigned to your computer. It is also stored which pages of our website visitors visit in each case. The date, time and duration of the visit and the browser a visitor uses to access the Internet are also stored. This data is evaluated for statistical purposes and to ensure the proper functioning of our website; the respective users are not traced.

GOOGLE ANALYTICS
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of 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 is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other countries party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website and Internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

GOOGLE MAPS
This website uses the Google Maps API, a map service of Google Inc. “(“Google”), to display an interactive map. By using Google Maps, information about your use of this website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

Google may transfer the information obtained through Maps to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.

Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. Nevertheless, it would be technically possible for Google to identify at least individual users on the basis of the data received. It is possible that personal data and personality profiles of users of the Google website could be processed for other purposes over which we have and cannot influence. This and the fact that data is transmitted to the USA is problematic for data protection reasons.

You can easily deactivate the Google Maps service to prevent data transfer to Google: To do this, deactivate JavaScript in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use the map display.

By using this website and by not deactivating the JavaScript function, you expressly declare that you are aware of the data protection problems and that you agree to the processing of data collected about you by Google in the manner and for the purpose described above.
Google Fonts

This site uses so-called web fonts provided by Google to uniformly display fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required Web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.

To do this, the browser you are using must connect to Google’s servers. This gives Google knowledge that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font is used by your computer.

Further information about Google Web Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faqand in Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

INTEGRATION OF PLUG-INS FOR SOCIAL NETWORKS
Our website uses buttons for the social networks
- facebook, Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA
- Google+, Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA
- Twitter, Twitter Inc, 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA
- Tumblr, LLC, 770 Broadway, New York, NY, 10003, USA
- LinkedIn, LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA

The buttons are marked with the logo of the respective social network. However, these are not the usual social plugins, but buttons with stored links. The buttons must be activated (clicked) separately by you. As long as these buttons are not clicked, no data is transferred to the social networks. Only when you click on the buttons and thereby declare your consent to communication with the servers of the social network, the buttons become active and the connection is established.
After clicking the button corresponds to a so-called share plugin. The social network is provided with information about the page you visit, which you can share with your contacts on your social network. If you want to share the information, you must be logged in. If you are not logged in, you will be taken to the login page of the social network you clicked on and you will no longer be on the pages of tuev-sued.de. Once you are logged in, the information will be sent that you would like to recommend the respective article.
By activating the button, the social network then also receives information that and when you have called up the corresponding page of our Internet presence, as well as e.g. your IP address, information on the browser used and the language settings. When you click the button, your click is sent to the social network and used according to its data usage guidelines.
When activating the button, we have no influence on the collected data and data processing processes and are not responsible for this data processing and are not responsible for this in terms of the DSGVO. We are also not aware of the full extent of data collection, its legal basis, the purposes and the storage periods. Therefore, the information provided here is not necessarily complete.
The data is transferred regardless of whether you actually have an account with the provider or are logged in there. If you are logged in with the provider, your data will be directly assigned to your account. Providers may also use cookies on your computer to track you.
To our knowledge, the provider stores this data in user profiles which it uses for purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation takes place in particular (also for not logged in users) for the representation of demand-fair advertisement and in order to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our web site. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. To exercise this right of objection, please contact the respective provider.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the respective social network as well as your relevant rights and employment options for the protection of your privacy can be found in the information provided.
