Traffic monitoring
Like most websites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user interaction. We use this data to determine the number of people using our site, to better understand how they find and use our websites, and to see their journey through the site. Although GA records data such as your geographic location, device, internet browser and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you. GA also records your computer’s IP address, which could be used to personally identify you, but Google does not provide us with access to this. We assume that Google is performing the processing. GA uses cookies, details of which can be found in Google’s developer guides. Our website uses GA’s analytics.js application.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer by websites. They do not cause damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. They are used to provide a better browsing experience on individual sites. A cookie is defined as an item that is received by the browser and then stored by it as a text file. Each time the browser calls up a page from the server, this message is sent back, which enables the user’s computer to be identified. Read more about aristeng.lu’s cookie policy. Disabling cookies in your web browser will prevent GA from tracking any part of your visit to pages on this site.

Data Transmission to third parties
Finally, we transfer your data within the scope of existing data protection laws to third parties or official authorities if we are legally obliged to do so by an official directive or court order, or we have the right to do so, for example, because it is necessary for the prosecution of criminal offenses, or for the protection and enforcement of our rights and claims.

Data security
The security of your personal data is a high priority for us. Therefore, we protect your data stored with us through technical and organizational measures to effectively prevent loss or misuse by third parties. In particular, our employees who process personal data are committed to maintaining confidentiality. To protect your personal data, the data is transmitted in encrypted form. We use, for example, TLS = Transport Layer Security to protect communication via your internet browser. This is identifiable by the padlock displayed by your browser in case of a TLS connection. In order to ensure the long-term protection of your data, technical security measures are regularly monitored and, if necessary, adapted to the respective prevailing technology standards.

Your rights
You have a legal right to be informed about your personal data stored by us and to request its correction or deletion. Data that we are required to store due to legal, institutional or contractual obligations to maintain commercial documents will be locked rather than deleted in order to prevent its use for other purposes.

Consent, right to object
To the extent that we will use data for a purpose which, according to legal provisions, requires your consent, we will always ask you for your explicit permission and link the permission you grant in accordance with data protection provisions. Permission granted once may be revoked at any time. Please understand that implementing the objection/revocation of your consent may take some time for technical reasons, and that you may continue to receive notifications from us in the meantime.
