1.1 We are pleased that you are visiting our website and thank you for your interest. Below we explain how we handle your personal data when you use our website. Personal data means all data by which you can be personally identified.
1.2 The controller responsible for data processing on this website within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is LELEDO GmbH, Industriestrasse 11, 96317 Kronach, Germany, phone +49 9261 675 46 59, email service@projektleder.de. The controller of personal data processing is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data.
2.1 If you use our website for information purposes only — that is, if you do not register or otherwise submit information to us — we collect only the data that your browser transmits to our web server (known as server log files). When you access our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display the website to you:
This processing is carried out under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data is not passed on or used for any other purpose. We do, however, reserve the right to review the server log files retrospectively should there be concrete indications of unlawful use.
2.2 For security reasons and to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential content (such as orders or enquiries sent to the controller), this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the string "https://" and the padlock symbol in your browser bar.
For hosting our website and displaying its content, we use a provider that delivers its services — itself or through selected subcontractors — exclusively on servers located within the European Union.
All data collected on our website is processed on these servers, unless a different recipient is named below for specific processing operations.
We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider that ensures the protection of our visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
To make visiting our website appealing and to enable certain functions, we use cookies — small text files stored on your device. Some of these cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser (session cookies), while others remain on your device for longer and allow page settings to be saved (persistent cookies). In the latter case, you can find the storage period in the cookie settings overview of your browser.
Where individual cookies we use also process personal data, this processing takes place under Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR for the performance of a contract, under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR where consent has been given, or under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR to protect our legitimate interests in the best possible functionality of the website and in a customer-friendly and effective visit.
You can set your browser so that you are informed when cookies are set and can decide individually whether to accept them, or so that cookies are refused in certain cases or generally.
Please note that refusing cookies may limit the functionality of our website.
This website uses a live chat system for answering enquiries in real time.
Personal data transmitted through the chat is processed either under Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR, where this is necessary to enter into or perform a contract, or under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in supporting our visitors effectively. Subject to any statutory retention periods to the contrary, the data you transmit is deleted once the matter concerned has been conclusively resolved.
In addition, further information may be collected and evaluated using cookies for the purpose of creating pseudonymized usage profiles. This information does not serve to identify you personally and is not merged with other data sets. Where this information relates to an identifiable person, processing takes place under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in the statistical analysis of user behavior for optimization purposes.
Cookies can be prevented through the relevant browser settings; the functionality of our website may be limited as a result. You may object to the collection and storage of data for the purpose of creating a pseudonymized usage profile at any time with effect for the future.
Solely on the basis of your express consent under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR, we use your email address to send you a one-time reminder to review our services after the contract has been performed. You may withdraw your consent at any time by sending a message to the controller.
When you contact us (for example via the contact form or by email), personal data is processed solely for the purpose of handling and answering your enquiry, and only to the extent necessary for that purpose.
The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in answering your enquiry under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If your enquiry is aimed at entering into a contract, Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR is an additional legal basis for processing. Your data is deleted once it is apparent from the circumstances that the matter concerned has been conclusively resolved, provided no statutory retention obligations apply.
Where the comment function on this website is used, we store and publish, alongside your comment, the time at which it was created and the commenter name you have chosen. Your IP address is also logged and stored. The IP address is stored for security reasons and in case the person concerned infringes the rights of third parties through a comment or posts unlawful content. We need your email address in order to contact you should a third party object to your published content as unlawful.
The legal bases for storing your data are Article 6 (1) (b) and (f) GDPR. We reserve the right to delete comments if third parties object to them as unlawful.
As a user, you may subscribe to follow-up comments. You will receive a confirmation email for this so that it can be verified that you are the owner of the email address given (double opt-in procedure). The legal basis for processing data in the case of comment subscriptions is Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You may cancel current comment subscriptions at any time with effect for the future; details on how to unsubscribe can be found in the confirmation email.
Under Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR, personal data continues to be collected and processed to the extent required where you provide it to us when opening a customer account. Which data is required for opening an account can be seen from the input fields of the relevant form on our website.
You may delete your customer account at any time by sending a message to the address of the controller given above. After your customer account has been deleted, your data will be erased, provided all contracts concluded through it have been fully performed, no statutory retention periods apply, and we have no continuing legitimate interest in further storage.
If you subscribe to our email newsletter, we will send you regular information about our offers. The only mandatory detail required to send the newsletter is your email address. Providing further data is voluntary and is used so that we can address you personally. For sending the newsletter we use the double opt-in procedure, which ensures that you receive newsletters only once you have expressly confirmed your consent by clicking a verification link sent to the address you provided.
By activating the confirmation link, you give us your consent to use your personal data under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. In doing so, we store the IP address assigned by your internet service provider (ISP) as well as the date and time of the subscription, so that any later misuse of your email address can be traced. The data we collect when you subscribe to the newsletter is used strictly for that purpose.
You may unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link provided in the newsletter, or by sending a message to the controller named at the outset. Once you have unsubscribed, your email address will be deleted from our newsletter distribution list without delay, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data, or we reserve the right to use the data beyond this in a manner permitted by law and about which we inform you in this policy.
If you have provided us with your email address when purchasing goods or services, we reserve the right to send you regular offers by email for goods or services from our range that are similar to those you have already purchased. Under Section 7 (3) of the German Act Against Unfair Competition (UWG), we do not need to obtain separate consent from you for this. To that extent, data processing takes place solely on the basis of our legitimate interest in personalized direct marketing under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If you objected to the use of your email address for this purpose from the outset, we will not send you any such emails.
You are entitled to object to the use of your email address for the marketing purpose described above at any time with effect for the future by sending a message to the controller named at the outset. You will incur only the cost of transmission at basic rates. Once we receive your objection, use of your email address for marketing purposes will cease without delay.
Our email newsletters are sent via the following provider: rapidmail GmbH, Wentzingerstrasse 21, 79106 Freiburg, Germany
On the basis of our legitimate interest in effective and user-friendly newsletter marketing, we pass the data you provide when subscribing to this provider under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR, so that the provider can send the newsletter on our behalf.
Subject to your express consent under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR, the provider also carries out a statistical evaluation of newsletter campaigns using web beacons or tracking pixels in the emails sent, which can measure open rates and specific interactions with the newsletter content. Device information (such as the time of access, IP address, browser type, and operating system) is also collected and evaluated in the process, but is not merged with other data sets. You may withdraw your consent to newsletter tracking at any time with effect for the future.
We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider that protects our visitors' data and prohibits disclosure to third parties.
9.1 To the extent necessary for performing the contract for delivery and payment purposes, the personal data we collect is passed under Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR to the transport company and the credit institution engaged for this purpose.
Where we owe you updates for goods with digital elements or for digital products on the basis of a corresponding contract, we process the contact details you provide when ordering in order to inform you personally as part of our statutory information obligations under Article 6 (1) (c) GDPR.

In this case your data is passed on solely for the purpose of processing the payment with the provider, and only to the extent necessary for that purpose.
One or more online payment methods from the following provider are available on this website: Mollie B.V., Keizersgracht 126, 1015 CW Amsterdam, Netherlands

In this case your data is passed on solely for the purpose of processing the payment with the provider, and only to the extent necessary for that purpose.
One or more online payment methods from the following provider are available on this website: PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg
If you select a payment method from the provider under which you pay in advance, the payment data you provide during the ordering process (including name, address, bank and payment card details, currency, and transaction number) together with information about the contents of your order is passed to the provider under Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR. In this case your data is passed on solely for the purpose of processing the payment with the provider, and only to the extent necessary for that purpose.
If you select a payment method under which we deliver in advance, you will also be asked during the ordering process to provide certain personal details (first and last name, street, house number, postal code, town, date of birth, email address, telephone number, and where applicable details of an alternative means of payment).
In such cases, to protect our legitimate interest in establishing your ability to pay, we forward this data to the provider under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR for the purpose of a credit check. On the basis of the personal details you provide and further data (such as shopping cart, invoice amount, order history, and payment history), the provider checks whether the payment option you have selected can be granted in view of payment and default risks.
The credit report may contain probability values (known as scores). Where scores are included in the result of the credit report, they are based on a scientifically recognized mathematical and statistical procedure. Address data is among the factors included in calculating scores, though not the only one.
You may object to this processing of your data at any time by sending a message to us or to the provider. However, the provider may remain entitled to process your personal data where this is necessary for contractual payment processing.
This website uses PayPal Checkout, an online payment system from PayPal made up of PayPal's own payment methods and local payment methods from third-party providers.
Where payment is made via PayPal, card via PayPal, direct debit via PayPal, or — where offered — Pay Later via PayPal, we pass your payment data as part of payment processing to PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg ("PayPal"). This takes place under Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR and only to the extent necessary for processing the payment.
For the payment methods card via PayPal, direct debit via PayPal, and — where offered — Pay Later via PayPal, PayPal reserves the right to carry out a credit check. For this purpose your payment data may be passed to credit agencies under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of PayPal's legitimate interest in establishing your ability to pay. PayPal uses the result of the credit check regarding the statistical probability of default in order to decide whether to make the payment method in question available. The credit report may contain probability values (known as scores). Where scores are included in the result of the credit report, they are based on a scientifically recognized mathematical and statistical procedure. Address data is among the factors included in calculating scores, though not the only one. You may object to this processing of your data at any time by sending a message to PayPal. However, PayPal may remain entitled to process your personal data where this is necessary for contractual payment processing.
Where the PayPal payment method "purchase on account" is available and selected, your payment data is first transmitted to PayPal in preparation for payment, whereupon PayPal forwards it to Ratepay GmbH, Franklinstrasse 28-29, 10587 Berlin ("Ratepay") in order to carry out the payment. In each case the legal basis is Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR. In this case Ratepay carries out an identity and credit check in its own name to establish your ability to pay, following the principle set out above, and passes your payment data to credit agencies on the basis of the legitimate interest in establishing ability to pay under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

This website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"), which enables an analysis of your use of our website.
By default, Google Analytics 4 does not use cookies when you visit the website unless you expressly consent to cookies. Instead, information about your usage behavior is collected and processed by means of pings (small data packets sent to the host of a device). This information includes your IP address, though Google truncates the final digits so that it cannot be related directly to an identifiable person.
The information is transmitted to Google's servers and processed further there. Transfers to Google LLC, based in the USA, are also possible.
Google uses the information collected on our behalf in order to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity for us, and provide further services connected with website and internet use. The truncated IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. The data collected through Google Analytics 4 is stored for two months and then deleted.
All the processing described above, including the transmission of data by pings and the possible setting of Google Analytics cookies, takes place only if you have given us your express consent under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 is not used during your visit. You may withdraw the consent you have given at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your right of withdrawal, please deactivate this service via the cookie consent tool provided on the website.
We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google that ensures the protection of our visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
Further legal information on Google Analytics 4 can be found at https://business.safety.google/privacy/, https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Google Analytics 4 uses the "demographics" feature and can produce statistics from it about the age, gender, and interests of visitors. This is done by analyzing advertising and information from third-party providers. It allows target groups for marketing activities to be identified. The data collected cannot, however, be attributed to any specific person, and is deleted after being stored for two months.
As an extension to Google Analytics 4, this website may use Google Signals to produce cross-device reports. If you have enabled personalized advertising and have linked your devices to your Google account, then subject to your consent to the use of Google Analytics under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR, Google may analyze your usage behavior across devices and create database models, including on cross-device conversions. We do not receive any personal data from Google, only statistics. If you wish to stop cross-device analysis, you can deactivate the "personalized advertising" feature in the settings of your Google account. To do so, follow the instructions on this page: https://support.google.com/My-Ad-Center-Help/answer/12155764
Further information on Google Signals can be found here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7532985
As an extension to Google Analytics 4, this website may use the "user IDs" feature. If you have consented to the use of Google Analytics 4 under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR, have set up an account on this website, and log in to that account on different devices, your activities, including conversions, can be analyzed across devices.
To improve analysis results for users whose contact details we have obtained in the course of business or comparable relationships, we use the "user-provided data collection" feature.
Subject to your express consent under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR, we transmit one or more files containing customer data aggregated about you (principally email address and telephone number) to Google electronically as part of this feature. Google does not receive access to the data in clear text; instead, the information in the customer files is automatically encrypted during the transmission process using a specific algorithm. Google can then use the encrypted information only in order to match it to existing Google accounts that the data subjects have set up.
This processing serves to make measurement data more precise, improves cross-device user tracking, and allows analysis results to be integrated into Google Ads' advertising personalization and conversion tracking functions.
You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by informing us. Further information on Google's data protection measures relating to the transmission of customer data can be found here: https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/6334160
For data transfers to the USA, the provider has joined the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission.
This website uses Google Tag Manager, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google").
Google Tag Manager provides a technical basis for bundling various web applications, including tracking and analytics services, and for calibrating, controlling, and setting conditions for them through a single interface. Google Tag Manager itself does not store or read information on users' devices, nor does it carry out any data analysis of its own. However, when a page is loaded, Google Tag Manager transmits your IP address to Google, where it may be stored. Transmission to servers of Google LLC in the USA is also possible.
This processing takes place only if you have given us your express consent under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. Without such consent, Google Tag Manager is not used during your visit. You may withdraw the consent you have given at any time with effect for the future. To do so, please deactivate this service in the cookie consent tool provided on the website.

This website uses a web analytics service provided by InnoCraft Ltd., 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand ("Matomo").
To protect visitors, Matomo uses a "config_id" in order to enable various analyses of site use within a short window of up to 24 hours. The config_id is a randomly set, time-limited hash of a limited set of a visitor's settings and attributes. The config_id, or config hash, is a character string calculated for a visitor on the basis of their operating system, browser, browser plugins, IP address, and browser language. Matomo does not use device fingerprinting and uses an anonymized IP address of the visitor to create the config_id.
Where the information processed in this way includes personal user data, processing takes place under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in the statistical analysis of user behavior for optimization and marketing purposes. To object to your visitor data being processed in future, we provide a separate objection option on our website.
Data is transmitted to the provider only if the service is not hosted on our own servers. Where the service is self-hosted, no data collected through it is transmitted to the provider.
Where the service is not hosted on our own servers, we have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider that ensures the protection of our visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
In that case, an adequacy decision of the European Commission applies to data transfers to New Zealand, confirming compliance with European data protection standards for international transfers.
This website uses the web analytics service of the following provider: Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA
Using cookies and/or comparable technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, algorithms for reading device and browser information), the service collects and stores pseudonymized visitor data, including information about the device used such as the IP address and browser information, in order to evaluate it for statistical analyses of usage behavior on our website and to create pseudonymized usage profiles. Among other things, this makes it possible to evaluate movement patterns (heatmaps) showing the duration of visits and interactions with page content (for example text entries, scrolling, clicks, and mouseovers). Pseudonymization means that the data cannot in principle be related directly to an identifiable person. It is not merged with clear-text data about you obtained by other means.
All the processing described above, in particular the reading or storing of information on the device used, takes place only if you have given us your express consent under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You may withdraw the consent you have given at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the cookie consent tool provided on the website.

The service collects and stores pseudonymized visitor data, including information about the device used such as the IP address and browser information. Pseudonymized usage profiles can be created and evaluated from this data for the same purpose. Cookies may be used for this. Cookies are small text files stored locally in the cache of the visitor's browser. Among other things, cookies allow the browser to be recognized again.

This website uses the web analytics service of the following provider: shopware AG, Ebbinghoff 10, 48624 Schöppingen, Germany
On the basis of joint controllership between us and the service provider within the meaning of Article 26 GDPR, the service uses cookies and/or comparable technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, algorithms for reading device and browser information) to collect and store pseudonymized visitor data, including information about the device used such as browser information, in order to evaluate it for statistical analyses of usage behavior on our website and to create pseudonymized usage profiles.

Within our online offering we use the "Meta Pixel" service in advanced matching mode, provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Meta").
If a user clicks on an advertisement we have placed on Facebook or Instagram, Meta Pixel adds a parameter to the URL of the page we have linked to. After the redirect, this URL parameter is written into the user's browser by a cookie that our linked page sets itself. In addition, this cookie records specific customer data such as the email address that we collect on the page linked to the Facebook or Instagram advertisement during processes such as purchases, account logins, or registrations (advanced matching). The cookie is then read and enables the data, including the specific customer data, to be transmitted to Meta.
We use Meta Pixel with advanced matching in order to make our advertisements on Facebook and/or Instagram more effective and to ensure that they correspond to users' interests or display certain characteristics (for example interests in particular topics or products, determined from the pages visited), which we transmit to Meta (known as custom audiences).
We also analyze the effectiveness of our advertisements by tracking whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on an advertisement (conversion). Compared with the standard version of Meta Pixel, advanced matching helps us to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns more accurately by recording more attributed conversions.
All data transmitted is stored and processed by Meta, so that it can be attributed to the relevant user profile and Meta can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with Meta's data usage policy (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). The data may enable Meta and its partners to display advertisements on and outside Facebook.
All the processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies in order to read information on the device used, takes place only if you have given us your express consent under Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You may withdraw the consent you have given at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the cookie consent tool provided on the website.
We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider that ensures the protection of our visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

For this purpose, Google sets a cookie in the browser on your device which automatically enables interest-based advertising by means of a pseudonymous cookie ID and on the basis of the pages you have visited. The information obtained in this way generally also includes your IP address.
Processing beyond this takes place only if you have agreed with Google that your internet and app browsing history may be linked by Google to your Google account, and that information from your Google account may be used to personalize advertisements you view on the web. If that is the case and you are logged in to Google while visiting our website, Google uses your data together with Google Analytics data in order to create and define target group lists for cross-device remarketing. For this purpose, your personal data is temporarily linked by Google with Google Analytics data in order to form target groups. In the course of using Google Ads Remarketing, personal data may also be transmitted to servers of Google LLC in the USA.

This website uses the online advertising program Google Ads and, within Google Ads, the conversion tracking of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google").
We use Google Ads in order to draw attention to our offers on external websites by means of advertising. In relation to the data from the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. Our aim is to show you advertising that is of interest to you, to make our website more interesting for you, and to achieve a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.
This website uses Google Ads conversion tracking exclusively without cookies, which means that the service never sets cookies on your device.
Instead, your browser's local storage is used to store an individual ID assigned by Google, which enables an analysis of your use of the website. Certain user information, including your IP address, is processed via this ID.
The ID is set when a user clicks on an Ads advertisement placed by Google. If the user visits certain pages of this website, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the advertisement and was redirected to that page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different ID, so IDs cannot be tracked across the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained in this way is used to compile conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their advertisement and were redirected to a page carrying a conversion tracking tag.
They do not, however, receive any information that would allow users to be identified personally. In the course of using Google Ads, personal data may also be transmitted to servers of Google LLC in the USA. Details of the processing initiated by Google Ads conversion tracking and of how Google handles data from websites can be found here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Where the information collected relates to an identifiable person, processing takes place under Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in the statistical evaluation of the success of our advertising campaigns.
