Data transfer to third countries

According to Art. 49 (1) lit. a DSGVO, data may be transferred to third countries with the explicit consent of the website visitor. In the following, we will therefore explain in more detail the possible risks associated with the transfer of data to third countries such as the USA. Our website uses various services from third-party providers based in the USA, such as Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and YouTube, which sometimes also process personal data. However, the USA is assessed by the European Court of Justice as a country with an insufficient level of data protection according to EU standards. In particular, there is a risk that your data may be processed by US authorities for control and surveillance purposes. In addition, EU citizens do not have any suitable legal protection options in this regard. For this reason, we inform you about the risks arising in this context when you first visit our website and ask for your express consent to the transfer of data to third countries. Your settings in this regard can be found in the footer of the website under "Cookie settings". There you can revoke your consent to the transfer of data to third countries at any time and also adjust your cookie setting for this website.
