Depending on your interaction with us, this log data may include your IP address, device information, browser type and settings, as well as information about your activities on the website (e.g., date/time stamps related to your usage, pages and files viewed, search queries, and other actions, such as which features you use), information about device events (e.g., system activities, error reports (including so-called “crash dumps”), and hardware settings).

Depending on the device you use, this device data may include information such as your IP address (or proxy server), device and application identification numbers, location, browser type, hardware model, internet service provider and/or mobile carrier, operating system, and system configuration information.
- Location Data. We collect location data, such as information about the location of your device, which may be either precise or approximate. The amount of information we collect depends on the type and settings of the device you use to access the website. For example, we may use GPS and other technologies to collect geolocation data that tells us your current location (based on your IP address). You can object to the collection of this data by either denying access to the data or disabling the location setting on your device.
Please note, however, that you may not be able to use certain aspects of the services if you choose to opt out.

HOW LONG DO WE RETAIN YOUR INFORMATION?
In summary: We retain your data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless otherwise required by law:
We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes set forth in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (e.g., for tax, accounting, or other legal reasons). Video surveillance data is deleted within 48–72 hours.
Unless we have a further legitimate business need to continue processing your personal data, we will delete or anonymize this data, or, if this is not possible (e.g., because your personal data has been stored in backup archives), we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion can take place.
HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR DATA SECURE?
In summary: We strive to protect your personal data through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures to ensure the security of the personal data we process. However, despite our security precautions and efforts to protect your data, it is not possible to guarantee 100% security for electronic transmissions over the internet or information storage technology, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to circumvent our security and unlawfully collect, access, steal, or alter your data. Although we do our best to protect your personal data, the transfer of personal data to and from our website is at your own risk. You should only access the website from a secure environment.

CONTROLS FOR “DO-NOT-TRACK” FUNCTIONS (DNT FUNCTIONS)
Most web browsers, as well as some mobile operating systems and applications, provide an activatable “Do Not Track” feature or setting that allows you to indicate that you do not wish to be tracked or have data collected about your online browsing activities. Currently, there is no defined, uniform technological standard for the recognition and implementation of DNT signals. We therefore do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or other mechanisms that automatically indicate that you do not wish to be subject to online tracking. Should a standard for online tracking be adopted that we are required to follow in the future, we will inform you of this practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.

You have the right to request access to the personal data we have collected, to correct or delete this data; in particular, you have the following rights:
- Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)
- Rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
- Erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
- Restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
