Your browser automatically transmits data to our web server for technical reasons when you access the ifa website. This data includes the date and time you accessed our site, the URL of the referring website, any retrieved files, the volume of data sent, the browser type and version, the operating system and your IP address. This data is stored separately from any other data you enter when using our website. It does not make or contain reference to your identity as a person. This data is logged in order to ensure system integrity, analyzed anonymously for statistical purposes and then deleted - usually after 7 days.
In addition to what is described in point 2 of this privacy policy, we process your data when you participate in a survey provided on our website. This requires your consent to transfer your data to the service provider we use for our survey (Lamano GmbH & Co.KG, Prenzlauer Allee 36 G, 10405 Berlin, Germany). In the process, your IP address is essentially transmitted to the service provider so that it can provide you with the functions on our website required for the survey. The data is not linked to your person. We have also designed the survey itself to be completely anonymous. It is not necessary for you to identify yourself when taking part, nor is any of your data stored as a result of your participation in the survey. All evaluations are carried out anonymously and therefore without any personal reference.
We continue to refrain from processing data on our website on the basis of cookies or trackers.
Your data will not be used by us for automated decision-making or profiling.
Your personal data is transmitted online in encrypted form. We use SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technology. We only pass on your personal data to third parties after first obtaining your consent unless we are under legal obligation to do so or in order to protect the rights, property and security of ifa. In cases where external service providers come into contact with personal data, we enforce mandatory legal, technical and organizational measures to guarantee compliance with data protection regulations.

Liability for illegal, inaccurate or incomplete content and, in particular, for damages resulting from the use or non-use of such information is the sole responsibility of the provider of the site to which links are provided.
According to the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to obtain information about your stored personal data free of charge and, if necessary, the right to correct, restrict or delete such data at any time.
