The legality of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to Object to Data Processing and Direct Marketing (Article 21 GDPR)
Where personal data is processed on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The respective legal basis for processing can be found in this Privacy Policy.
If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or where the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (Article 21(1) GDPR).
Where your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing purposes. This also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (Article 21(2) GDPR).
Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement.

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
You also have the right to request that this data be transmitted directly to another controller where technically feasible.
SSL/TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this website uses SSL or TLS encryption.
You can recognize an encrypted connection by the change in the browser address line from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol displayed in your browser.
When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Access, Erasure and Rectification
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of processing.
You also have the right to request the correction or deletion of this data.
For this purpose and for any further questions regarding personal data, you may contact us at any time using the address provided in the legal notice.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
This right applies in the following cases:
- If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally require time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request restriction of processing.
- If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you may request restriction of processing instead of erasure.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, you may request restriction of processing instead of erasure.
- If you have objected pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of interests must be carried out. Until it has been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of processing.
Where processing has been restricted, such personal data may—apart from storage—only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

Analytics by WiredMinds
Our website uses the tracking pixel technology provided by WiredMinds GmbH (www.wiredminds.de) to analyse visitor behaviour.
For this purpose, the IP address of a visitor is processed. The processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of collecting company-related information, such as the name of the company. IP addresses of private individuals are excluded from further processing (whitelist procedure).
An IP address is never stored in LeadLab. During data processing, we have a particular interest in protecting the privacy rights of natural persons. This interest is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

7. Plugins and Tools
YouTube with Enhanced Privacy Mode
This website embeds videos from YouTube. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode prevents YouTube from storing information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, the transfer of data to YouTube partners is not necessarily excluded by enhanced privacy mode. For example, YouTube may establish a connection to the Google DoubleClick network regardless of whether you watch a video.
As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. This informs the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited.
If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to associate your browsing behaviour directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
Furthermore, after starting a YouTube video, YouTube may store various cookies on your device. With the help of these cookies, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve user experience, and prevent fraudulent activities. The cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them.
Further data processing operations may be triggered after starting a YouTube video, over which we have no influence.
The use of YouTube is in the interest of presenting our online content in an appealing manner. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where consent has been requested (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
Further information about data protection at YouTube can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy:
https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en
Vimeo
This website uses plugins from the video platform Vimeo. The provider is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.
When you visit one of our pages that contains a Vimeo plugin, a connection to Vimeo’s servers is established. In doing so, the Vimeo server receives information about which of our pages you have visited. Vimeo also obtains your IP address. This applies even if you are not logged into Vimeo or do not have a Vimeo account.
The information collected by Vimeo is transmitted to Vimeo servers in the United States.
If you are logged into your Vimeo account, you enable Vimeo to associate your browsing behaviour directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account.
The use of Vimeo is in the interest of presenting our online content in an appealing manner. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where consent has been requested (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
Further information on how Vimeo handles user data can be found in Vimeo’s Privacy Policy:
Google Web Fonts
This website uses so-called Web Fonts provided by Google to ensure a consistent display of fonts.
When you access a page, your browser loads the required Web Fonts into your browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly. For this purpose, the browser you use must establish a connection to Google’s servers. This enables Google to become aware that this website has been accessed via your IP address.
The use of Google Web Fonts is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the consistent and appealing presentation of fonts on its website.
Where consent has been requested (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
If your browser does not support Web Fonts, a standard font installed on your device will be used.
Further information about Google Web Fonts can be found at:
https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq
and in Google’s Privacy Policy:
https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en
Google Maps (with Consent)
This website uses the Google Maps map service via an API. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
To ensure data protection on this website, Google Maps is disabled when you first visit this website. A direct connection to Google’s servers is only established once you activate Google Maps yourself (consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). This prevents your data from being transmitted to Google when you first access the website.
After activation, Google Maps may store your IP address. This information is generally transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the United States. The operator of this website has no influence on this data transfer after Google Maps has been activated.
Further information on how Google handles user data can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy:
https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en
Google reCAPTCHA
We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
reCAPTCHA is used to determine whether data entered on this website (for example, in a contact form) is entered by a human or by an automated program.
For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyses the behaviour of website visitors based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor accesses the website.
For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information, such as the IP address, the duration of the visitor’s stay on the website, or mouse movements made by the user. The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
The reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not informed that an analysis is taking place.
The storage and analysis of data is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its website against abusive automated access, data scraping, and spam.
Where consent has been requested (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
Further information about Google reCAPTCHA can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy and Google’s Terms of Service:
