1. a) When you access our website, www.Arch-Abr.com, the browser you use on your device automatically sends information to our website server. This information is temporarily saved to a so-called log file.

The following information is recorded without the need for any action on your part and is stored until automatic erasure:

• IP address of requesting computer
• date and time of access
• name and URL of requested file
• website from which access is made (the referrer URL)
• the browser you use and, if relevant, also the operating system of your computer and the name of your access provider.

These data are processed by us for the following purposes:

• to ensure a smooth connection to the website
• to ensure convenient use of our website
• to evaluate the level of system security and stability
• for further administrative purposes.

The legal basis for data processing is GDPR Art. 6 (1) point f. Our legitimate interest arises from the above-listed purposes of data collection. Under no circumstances will we use the collected data to identify you personally. In addition, we use cookies and analysis services when you visit our website. Further details can be found in clauses 4 and 5 of this Privacy Policy.

1. b) If you use our contact form: Should you have questions of any kind, you are welcome to contact us through a form available on our website. When you do so, you will need to provide a valid email address, so that we know who the inquiry comes from and can then send you a reply. Any further details are optional.

Any personal data collected by us through the use of our contact form are automatically erased as soon as your enquiry has been dealt with.

We do not transfer your personal data to third parties for any purposes other than those listed here. We only share your personal data with third parties under the following circumstances:

• If you have given your express consent according to GDPR Article 6 (1) point a.,
• If disclosure according to GDPR Art. 6 (1) point f is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims and if there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding legitimate interest in the non-disclosure of your data,
• If we are under a legal obligation to disclose data under GDPR Article 6 (1) point c
• If disclosure is legally permitted and necessary for managing the contractual relationships with you under GDPR Article 6 (1) point b

4. Cookies

We use cookies on our website. These are small files that are created automatically by your browser and are then stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our site. Cookies cause no harm on your device, and neither do they contain viruses, Trojans or any other malware. The information that is saved to a cookie always relates to the specific device that is used. However, this does not mean that we gain direct knowledge of your identity as a result. The purpose of cookies is, on the one hand, to make it more pleasant for you to use our products and services. We therefore use session cookies which tell us that you have visited certain pages on our site, and which are automatically deleted when you leave the site. Another way in which we enhance user-friendliness is through the use of temporary cookies that are saved to your device for a certain specified period of time. Next time you visit our site for the purpose of using our services, the system understands automatically that you have visited the site before and knows which entries and settings you made, so that you don’t need to do so again. We also use cookies which record statistical details of website use, so that we can optimize our website or your benefit (see clause 5). When you visit our website again, such cookies automatically detect that you have visited us before. They are automatically deleted after a specified period of time. Data processed by cookies are required for the aforementioned purposes, enabling us to protect our legitimate interests and the legitimate interests of third parties, in accordance with GDPR Art. 6 (1) point f. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies. You can configure your browser in such a way that it does not save cookies to your computer or that it lets you know whenever it is about to create a new cookie. However, if you disable cookies completely, you may not be able to use all the functions of our website.

5. Analysis Tools

• Tracking-Tools
  We use a range of tracking tools, which are listed below and are based on GDPR Art. 6 (1) point f. By using these tracking tools, we want to ensure the customized design and ongoing optimization of our website. Another purpose of our tracking tools is to obtain statistical information on the use of our website, so that we can analyze it and thus optimize our website for you. These interests are legitimate under the provisions of the aforementioned regulation. The relevant data processing purposes and data categories can be gathered from each tracking tool.
• Google Adwords Conversion Tracking
  We use Google Conversion Tracking to collect statistical details on the use of our website, which we then analyze, so that we can optimize it for your benefit. If you have reached our website via a Google advert, Google Adwords places a cookie (see clause 4) on your computer. Cookies of this kind lose their validity after 30 days and cannot be used for personal identification. If a user visits certain pages of the Adwords customer and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the customer know that the user has clicked on the advert and has been directed to this page.
  Each Adwords customer is given a different cookie. This means that cookies cannot be traced via the websites of Adwords customers. Details obtained through conversion cookies serve the purpose of creating conversion statistics for Adwords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. These customers are told the total number of users who have clicked on their adverts and who have been redirected to a page carrying a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that might enable them to identify any users in person. Should you not wish to participate in the tracking process, you can reject the placement of such a cookie, e.g. via the browser setting that generally disables the automatic placement of cookies. Another way to disable conversion tracking cookies is to make a setting in your browser, telling it to block cookies from the domain www.googleadservices.com. Google’s privacy notice on conversion tracking can be found here
