1. The Italian Republic recognizes the social value and the purpose of volunteer work as an expression of participation, solidarity and pluralism, it fosters its development, safeguarding its autonomy and supports individual contributions for the attainment of social, civil and cultural goals identified by the federal government, the regions, the autonomous provinces of Trento and Bolzano and the local authorities.
2. The law establishes the principles that must be followed by the regions and autonomous provinces in regulating relationships between public agencies and volunteer organizations as well as the criteria with which the civil services and local authorities must comply within these relationships.
1. For the purposes of the present law, volunteer activities are considered as any action carried out personally, voluntarily and free of charge, through the organization to which the volunteer belongs, which is non-profit-making, even indirectly, and formed solely for purposes of solidarity.
2. Volunteer work may not be paid in any way, not even by the beneficiary. The volunteer may only be reimbursed by the organization he or she belongs to for expenses actually incurred during the activity, within the limits set by the organizations themselves.
3. The role of volunteer is incompatible with every kind of employer-employee or self-employment relationship and all other types of relationships in which income is received from the organization to which the volunteer belongs.
1. Any organization freely formed to carry out the activity stated in Art. 2, which predominantly and significantly makes use of the personal, voluntary and unpaid services of its members is considered a volunteer organization.
2. Volunteer organizations can take whatever legal form is considered most appropriate for the pursuit of their aims, barring limitations of compatibility with their purpose of solidarity.
3. The non-profit-making status, the democratic nature of the structure, the elective nature and gratuitousness of posts in the association, as well as the gratuitousness of the services provided by its members, the criteria for admission and exclusion of the latter, their duties and rights, must be expressly stated in agreements with members, in the association charter or statute, as well as in accordance with the provisions of the civil code for the various legal forms that the organization may take. These must also establish the obligation to prepare a financial statement in which assets, contributions or bequests received must be stated, as well as the procedure for its approval by the members’ assembly.
4. Volunteer organizations can hire employees or make use of self-employment services only within the limits of what is necessary for their regular operation or necessary for qualified or specialized aspects of the activity performed.
5. The organizations perform volunteer services using their own structures or, in the ways and manners provided for by the law, within public structures or structures having an agreement with them.
1. Volunteer organizations must insure their members carrying out volunteer work against accidents, illnesses and third-party liability related to the performance of the activity itself.
2. The Ministry of Industry, Trade and Craft decree, to be issued within six months of the date when the present law comes into effect, identifies simplified insurance processes including numerical or joint policies and regulates the relative controls.
2. Volunteer organizations without status of legal entity, entered in the registers as per Art. 6, can purchase personal property and real estate required for carrying out their activities. Making an exception to Art. 600 and 786 of the civil code, they can also accept donations and, with benefit of inventory, testamentary bequests, allocating the assets received and their revenue exclusively to the attainment of the aims stated in the agreements, association charter and statutes.
3. The assets under paragraph 2 are registered in the organization’s name. For the registration of the acquisitions in question, Art. 2659 and 2660 of the civil code apply.
4. In the event of dissolution, discontinuance or termination of volunteer organizations, and regardless of their legal form, the assets outstanding after carrying out liquidation are donated to other volunteer organizations operating in the same or a similar sector, following the guidelines in the statute or in the members’ agreements, or, in default of these, following the provisions of the civil code.
1. The regions and autonomous provinces manage the establishment and keeping of general registers of volunteer organizations.
2. Inclusion in the registers is a prerequisite for gaining access to public aid as well as for stipulating agreements and benefiting from tax concessions, in accordance with the provisions under Art. 7 and 8, respectively.
3. Volunteer organizations that keep books as per Art. 3 and enclose a copy of their association charter and statute or members’ agreements are entitled to be entered in the registers.
4. The regions and autonomous provinces decide the criteria for periodical review of the registers in order to verify the continuing possession of requirements and performance of the volunteer work by the organizations included therein. The regions and the autonomous provinces can order removal from the register with a justified measure.
5. Appeals are permitted against orders of refusal of inclusion and against orders of removal within the time limit of thirty days from notification, to be made to the regional administrative court which will rule in chambers within thirty days from the expiry of the time limit for lodging the appeal, having heard the counsel for the parties making the request. The court’s decision is appealable within thirty days from the notification and decided using the same procedures and terms.
6. Each year the regions and the autonomous provinces send an updated copy of the registers to the National Institute on Volunteerism, as specified under Art. 12.
7. The organizations included in the registers are obliged to keep documentation regarding their income as per Art. 5, paragraph 1, with indications of the names of the parties making donations.
1. The federal government, regions, autonomous provinces, local authorities and other public agencies may stipulate agreements with volunteer organizations that have been included in the registers under Art. 6 for at least six months and which demonstrate operational aptness and know-how.
2. The agreements must include regulations that guarantee the existence of the conditions required to consistently carry out the activities of the agreement, and observance of the rights and dignity of the users. They must also provide means for verifying the services and their quality as well as procedures for reimbursement of expenses.
3. Insurance coverage as per Art. 4 is an essential part of the agreement and the related expenses are the responsibility of the agency with which the agreement made.
1. The association charter of volunteer organizations as per Art. 3, formed solely for reasons of solidarity and actions related to the performance of their activities are exempt from stamp and registration taxes.
2. Operations performed by volunteer organizations as per Art. 3, formed solely for reasons of solidarity, are not considered transfers of capital or the supply of services for value-added tax purposes; donations and allocations of inheritance or bequests to organizations that exclusively pursue the aforementioned aims are exempt from all tax.
3. Art. 17 of law No. 408 of 29 December 1990, as amended by Art. 1 of law No. 102 of 25 March 1991, is hereby amended after paragraph 1-b with the following: "1-c. Through the legislative decrees stated in paragraph 1, and following the same executive criteria and principles, measures will be introduced aimed at encouraging donations to volunteer organizations formed solely for reasons of solidarity on the condition that their activities have voluntary aims, which are recognized as being eligible under the regulations in force on the matter and which have been included in the appropriate registers for at least two years without interruption. To that end, making an exception to the provisions of letter a) of paragraph 1, the aforesaid donations must be deductible, in accordance with Art. 10, 65 and 110 of the consolidated tax act, approved by Presidential Decree No. 917 of 22 December 1986 and subsequent amendments and supplements, for an amount of no more than 2 million lira or, for corporate revenue, 50 percent of the sum donated within the limit of 2 percent of declared profits up to a maximum of 100 million lira."
4. Proceeds from secondary commercial and profit-bearing activities do not represent taxable income for corporate income tax (IRPEG) or local income tax (ILOR), if documentation is provided of their full use for the institutional purposes of the volunteer organization. The Treasury Department, in agreement with the Department of Social Affairs, will rule on applications for exemption following verification of the nature and size of the activity.
1. The provisions under Art. 20, paragraph one, of Presidential Decree No. 598 of 29 September 1973, as replaced by Art. 2 of Presidential Decree No. 954 of 28 December 1982 are applied to volunteer organizations included in the registers as per Art. 6.
1. Regional and provincial laws must protect the autonomy of organization and initiative of volunteer services or encourage their development.
f) the participation of volunteers who are members of the organizations included in the registers as per Art. 6 in professional training and refresher courses held or promoted by the regions, autonomous provinces and local authorities in the sectors in which the organizations themselves operate directly.

Versico, Inc. v. Engineered Fabrics Corp.
VERSICO, INC. v. ENGINEERED FABRICS CORPORATION.
Certiorari Denied October 22, 1999.
*506 Brinson, Askew, Berry, Seigler, Richardson & Davis, Robert M. Brinson, Ivy S. Duggan, Rome, for appellant.
Shaw, Maddox, Graham, Monk & Boling, Virginia B. Harman, Thomas H. Manning, Rome, for appellee.
We granted the application of Versico, Inc. for interlocutory appeal in this action brought by Engineered Fabrics Corporation ("EFC") for breach of the warranty issued by Versico's predecessors in interest to EFC's predecessors in interest, covering a roofing system installed on buildings in Rockmart now occupied by EFC. We find no error in the trial court's detailed and well-reasoned order denying Versico's motion for summary judgment and granting partial summary judgment to EFC on the issue of liability, and we affirm the judgment.
The roofing system was installed on the buildings in 1986 by a roofing contractor, using materials manufactured by the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company. At that time, Goodyear also owned the buildings in issue, which were occupied by its wholly owned subsidiary, Goodyear Aerospace Corporation. Goodyear issued a ten-year warranty on its materials. Goodyear later sold its Engineered Fabrics Division, including the facility in Rockmart, to Loral Corporation, which sold it to Opus Acquisition Company in 1989. Opus assigned its assets and contract rights to EFC. Similarly, Goodyear sold its roofing systems business to Carlisle Companies in March 1993. Versico, Inc., a new corporation, was formed to handle this business.
The record shows that the roofing installed in 1986 never performed properly. It began leaking almost immediately, and Goodyear honored the warranty by inspecting the premises and carrying out repairs when called upon to do so first by Goodyear Aerospace, then Loral, and finally EFC. After *507 Versico became responsible for the business, it, too, responded to warranty claims and continued to perform repairs. This continued until October 27, 1995, when Versico informed EFC that it would no longer honor the warranty. Further requests were ignored or refused, and EFC filed this action against Versico in April 1996 for breach of the warranty.
Versico answered, admitting jurisdiction and venue but denying liability. Versico moved for summary judgment on several grounds: that Versico was not a party to the express warranty and therefore owed EFC no contractual obligation; that similarly, EFC was not a party to the warranty contract and lacked standing to enforce it; and that EFC's claim under the warranty was barred by the applicable statute of limitation. The trial court denied Versico's motion for summary judgment on these grounds, finding an ambiguity in the provisions of the purchase and sale agreement between Goodyear and Versico and applying the rules of contract construction to find that it was the intention of the parties that Versico carry out Goodyear's obligations under the warranties it had issued.
The court also denied Versico's motion on the statute of limitation ground, finding that the applicable statute of limitation was four years, under OCGA § 11-2-725(1), and that the limitation period did not begin running until October 12, 1995, when notice was given by EFC of damage and Versico refused to make repairs under the warranty. The trial court's order also found that the evidence had established Versico's contractual obligation to honor the warranty issued by Goodyear, as well as its breach by Versico when it refused to repair or replace the roofing system in October 1995, and that the only issue remaining for jury resolution was that of damages.
1. Versico first contends the trial court erred in ruling sua sponte on the issue of liability. It is well established that a trial court may do so, and it may also grant summary judgment to the nonmoving party. The only restriction on such a grant of summary judgment is that it must be proper "in all other respects." See, e.g., GeneraliU.S. Branch v. Southeastern Security Ins. Co., 229 Ga.App. 277, 278(1), 493 S.E.2d 731 (1997). "This means that in addition to ensuring the record supports such a judgment, the trial court must ensure that the party against whom summary judgment is rendered is given full and fair notice and opportunity to respond prior to entry of summary judgment." (Citations and punctuation omitted.) Hodge v. SADA Enterprises, 217 Ga. App. 688, 690(1), 458 S.E.2d 876 (1995). Versico maintains that entry of judgment against it was improper in this case because it had no opportunity to respond and present evidence on this issue.
This contention is belied by the record. Versico itself made assertions in the trial court that served as solemn admissions in judicio on this issue. See generally Jabaley v. Jabaley, 208 Ga.App. 179(1), 430 S.E.2d 119 (1993). In its brief in support of its motion for summary judgment, it admitted that the roofing system has leaked continuously since the date of installation and that EFC and its predecessors in interest have "never had a roof that was leak-free or maintenance free." In the "Statement of Material Facts as to Which it Contends There is No Genuine Issue," filed in conjunction with the motion for summary judgment, Versico alleged that the fact that the leaking began "[i]mmediately after the roofing systems were installed" and that the leaking had continued were undisputed. In that document, Versico also admitted as undisputed that it had made several attempts to repair the roofs after March 15, 1993, and that it wrote the letter to EFC on October 27, 1995, indicating it would make no further repairs. Although Versico now claims these were not "admissions" but merely statements to the court of EFC's contentions for purposes of the motion for summary judgment, the record shows that while Versico at times listed some of EFC's contentions, the statements referred to here, as well as others, were admitted by Versico in its pleadings without qualification of any sort. See Walker v. Jack *508 Eckerd Corp., 209 Ga.App. 517-518(1), 434 S.E.2d 63 (1993).
Such an admission in judicio may be considered for purposes of summary judgment, Walker, supra at 518, 434 S.E.2d 63, and it "cannot be contradicted by other evidence unless it is withdrawn or amended on formal motion." (Citation and punctuation omitted.) McCoy v. West Building Materials, 232 Ga.App. 620, 621, 502 S.E.2d 559 (1998). The effect of the admission is to relieve an opposing party from presenting any evidence as to that fact issue. It "is conclusive; it is binding upon the party and estops the party from denying the admission or introducing any evidence to controvert such an admission, even if the admission is not true." (Citations and punctuation omitted.) Jabaley, supra. See also McCoy, supra.
McClendon v. 1152 Spring Street Assoc., 225 Ga.App. 333, 484 S.E.2d 40 (1997), and Aycock v. Calk, 222 Ga.App. 763, 476 S.E.2d 274 (1996), cited by Versico, do not require a different result. Both cases affirm the general principles discussed above. They are, however, distinguished factually from this case, in that in those cases the nonmoving parties did not bring forward the evidence supporting the sua sponte grant of summary judgment and did not have an opportunity to respond because the issue had never been raised. In addition, those parties were not estopped or otherwise foreclosed from controverting the evidence supporting the grant of summary judgment. Because Versico itself provided the trial court with evidence sufficient to support a summary judgment against it and no notice to Versico was necessary since Versico was estopped by its admissions in judicio from contesting those admissions, the trial court did not err in making a ruling on the merits as to liability.
2. Versico next contends the trial court erred in finding an ambiguity in the contract between Versico and Goodyear, in applying the rules of contract construction, and in concluding that EFC was an intended third-party beneficiary of that contract. We do not agree.
As payment of the consideration due seller ... by purchaser ..., purchaser agrees to assume and to pay and/or perform, in accordance with their respective terms from and after the closing date, each of the following (and only the following) obligations or commitments of seller to the extent (and only to the extent) that they relate to the business[:] ... (b) ... all product liability, including but not limited to product warranty liability, relating to all roofing products ... sold by seller prior to the closing date. Purchaser shall also perform all warranty service obligations of seller relating to roofing products ... sold by seller prior to the closing date.
Section 8.4 provides simply that "[n]othing created in this agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to confer upon any person not a party to this agreement any rights or remedies under or by reason of this agreement."
The trial court's order correctly recites that it is for the court to determine the construction of a contract, at least initially. Even when an apparent ambiguity exists, the contract raises no jury question unless the ambiguity remains after applying the rules of contract construction. CareAmerica v. Southern Care Corp., 229 Ga.App. 878, 880(1), 494 S.E.2d 720 (1997). The cardinal rule of contract construction is to ascertain the intent of the parties. OCGA § 13-2-3. The trial court applied this rule.
No doubt existed that the language of § 3.1(b) shows the parties intended for Versico *509 to take over Goodyear's obligations with regard to roofing warranties already issued. The evidence showed that the purchase and sale agreement had been negotiated based upon the expected expenditures for work on outstanding warranties and that a reserve fund had been set up for Versico to use in meeting its obligations under the warranties. The court also noted that Versico had itself informed warranty holders to direct their repair requests under the warranties to Versico and had actually performed warranty work for EFC. The court therefore concluded that the intention of the parties was for Versico to perform all warranty work on the outstanding Goodyear warranties.
The court then reconciled § 8.4 of the agreement with this intention by concluding that it does not include any existing warranty holders in its purview. This was merely the application of another rule of contract construction providing that when specific provisions in a contract are applicable, they prevail over any conflicting general language. See, e.g., McDuffie v. Hoobler, 203 Ga.App. 325, 328, 416 S.E.2d 853 (1992). We conclude, therefore, that the trial court's procedure and reasoning were in accord with the rules of contract interpretation, and we find no error in the conclusion reached.
3. In its final enumeration, Versico asserts that the trial court erred in finding that EFC's claim for breach of warranty was not barred by the applicable statute of limitation. We find no merit in this enumeration.
The trial court found that the parties agreed this case involved a sale of goods; the relevant statute of limitation therefore was four years, under OCGA § 11-2-725(1). Relying upon Benning Constr. Co. v. Lakeshore Plaza Enterprises, 240 Ga. 426, 241 S.E.2d 184 (1977), Versico argued that the limitation period had expired, because it commenced running upon the first notification to Goodyear almost immediately after installation that the roofing system was malfunctioning. EFC, on the other hand, relied upon Space Leasing Assoc. v. Atlantic Building Systems, 144 Ga.App. 320, 241 S.E.2d 438 (1977), in support of its position that the limitation period commenced when Versico informed it that the warranty would no longer be honored.
The trial court found that Versico breached the warranty when it refused to repair on October 27, 1995, and that this breach "related back" to October 12, 1995, the date on which EFC last notified Versico of damage before Versico's refusal to make repairs. The court ruled that the statute therefore commenced running on October 12, 1995, and that EFC's complaint had been filed within four years of the accrual of EFC's cause of action, as required by OCGA § 11-2-725(1).
contemplates that the warrantor shall have an opportunity to remedy defects. Thus the warranty is not instantly breached if the [product] is found on delivery or at some time thereafter within the warranty period to have a defective part or operational deficiency. The language of the warranty provides that in such event the manufacturer ... will replace or repair..., and do what is necessary to bring the [product] to normal at no cost to the purchaser.... [I]t is the refusal to remedy within a reasonable time, or a lack of success in the attempts to remedy which would constitute a breach of warranty.
Id. at 551(1), 181 S.E.2d 694. In Space Leasing, this court held, therefore, that although a breach of warranty generally occurs upon the delivery of goods under the Uniform Commercial Code, when an agreement exists to repair or to replace the goods, the warranty will not be deemed breached until *510 and unless the warrantor refuses or fails to repair. Id. at 325(4), 241 S.E.2d 438.
In this case, because the warranty included an agreement to replace or repair, no breach occurred until Versico refused to perform further repairs. We find no merit in Versico's argument that the trial court ignored other language in Space Leasing to its detriment. We held in Space Leasing that it was the refusal to remedy "or a lack of success in the attempts to remedy," that constituted breach of warranty. (Emphasis omitted.) Id. Versico argues that EFC should therefore be penalized for its patience in allowing repeated attempts at warranty repair that were, in the words of Versico, "simply unsuccessful." We decline to adopt this view, particularly in light of Versico's assurance, almost up to the point at which it refused to perform any more repairs, that the repairs would be successful. The trial court correctly ruled that Versico breached its warranty when it refused to conduct further warranty repairs and that EFC's complaint was filed well within the limitation period, which did not commence running until the breach.
POPE, P.J., and ELDRIDGE, J., concur.
 EFC's complaint also stated claims for strict liability and breach of an implied warranty for fitness for a particular purpose, but these were later dismissed by EFC.
 We note that Versico raises more than one issue in this enumeration, in violation of the requirement in OCGA § 5-6-40 that each error alleged be set out separately. In such cases, it is within this court's discretion to elect to review none, or any one or more, of the asserted errors. Stubbs v. Harmon, 226 Ga.App. 631, 633(2), 487 S.E.2d 91 (1997). Because we cannot, in this case, address any one of these errors without touching upon the others, we elect to review all the asserted errors together.
 Versico also argues that its repair attempts were "subsequent repair attempts" that did not "toll" the statute of limitation, relying upon cases such as Heffeman v. Johnson, 209 Ga.App. 139, 140, 433 S.E.2d 108 (1993), that do not involve breach of warranty and are totally inapplicable.


text:
In the article, within the framework of the preparation of the instrumental base for revealing the dependence of the force parameters, namely the resistance to cutting of durable snow-ice formations (DSIF), engineering of the measuring converter is accomplished. The relevance of the article is due to the need to implement the program “Socio-economic development of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation for the period until 2020” and the implementation of the strategy. It entails the development of the new working bodies of special machines for aerodrome-technical support, made on the basis of a disk cutting tool. At the design stages it is necessary to know the force parameters acting on the working body. The conditions for carrying out the laboratory experiments to study the process of interaction of the disk cutting tool with PSLO are described. The process of choosing the place of a strain gauge sticker from the point of view of necessary deformations and the way to assemble them into measuring bridge circuits are shown. The conclusions about the correctness of the selection of the material of the strain gauge element have been made. The hypothesis on exclusion of mutual influence of measured components against each other has been confirmed. The calibration coefficients for converting the voltage into a force value for each component of the cutting force have been received. The importance of calibrating the measuring converter before conducting the next experiment is emphasized. This work is a continuation of a series of work on experimental laboratory studies of the processes of interaction of a disk-cutting tool with DSIF, for a number of years, conducted at Siberian Federal University.
Keywords: snow-ice formations, disk cutting tool, power parameters, ice, radius of curvature of the working edge.

This data protection statement explains to you the type, scope and purposes of the collection and use of personal data at https://www.faulenbach-gmbh.de (hereinafter the "website") by Faulenbach Schmiedetechnik GmbH (hereinafter "we" or "us"). We are responsible for all personal data collected on the website, unless this privacy statement contains different information.
Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e. information that can be traced back to a person. This typically includes your name, e-mail address or telephone number. In addition, however, purely technical data that can be assigned to a person must also be regarded as personal data.
You have the right to receive information about the personal data that has been stored about you free of charge upon request. In addition, you have the right to request the correction of incorrect data, the right to demand the restriction of the processing of data that has been processed too extensively and the right to the deletion of personal data that has been processed unlawfully or stored for too long (insofar as there is no legal obligation to retain data and no other reasons to the contrary according to Art. 17 Para. 3 GDPR). In addition, you have the right to transfer all data you have provided to us in a standard file format (right to data portability), provided that you have provided the data to us within the framework of a declaration of consent or for the fulfilment of a contract.
If you also have a right to object to processing of data in individual procedures, we will point this out in the description of the individual procedure.
To exercise your rights, simply send an e-mail to datenschutz@faulenbach-gmbh.de.
You also have the right of appeal to a data protection supervisory authority.
The provision of your personal data on this website is generally neither required by law nor by contract. You are not obliged to provide personal data on this website. However, the provision of the functions of this website requires the processing of your personal data.
The transfer of personal data to the above-mentioned service provider is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. This authorization allows the processing of personal data in our "legitimate interest", provided that your fundamental rights, freedoms or interests in the omission of data processing do not outweigh this. Our legitimate interest is the recourse to specialized service providers, who are able to implement a corresponding hosting more efficiently than we can. Nevertheless, you can object to this data processing at any time if there are reasons which exist in your particular situation and which speak against a transfer of the personal data to a server service provider. All you need to do is send an e-mail to datenschutz@faulenbach-gmbh.de.
Cookies are small text files which are stored on your terminal device by the browser used when you access our website. In this way you can "recognize" individual services of a website and "remember" which settings you have made. On one hand this makes the web pages more user-friendly and so helps users (e.g. by storing login data). On the other hand, cookies are used to collect statistical data on website use and to use the data thus obtained for analysis and advertising purposes.
Some cookies are automatically deleted from your terminal device as soon as you leave the website (what is known as a session cookie). Other cookies are stored for a certain period of time, which may not exceed two years in each case (persistent cookies). We also use what are known as third party cookies, which are managed by third parties in order to provide certain services.
When you contact us (for example by e-mail or by using the contact form), the information provided by you will be stored for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event that follow-up questions arise.
The contact details will be processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The latter authorization allows the processing of personal data in the "legitimate interest" of the person responsible, provided that your fundamental rights, freedoms or interests do not outweigh this. Our legitimate interest is to process the contact information. You can object to this data processing at any time if there are reasons which exist in your particular situation and which speak against the data processing. All you need to do is send an e-mail to datenschutz@faulenbach-gmbh.de.
The personal data stored as part of getting in contact will be deleted if the request connected with the establishment of contact has been completely clarified and it is also not to be expected that the specific establishment of contact will be required again in the future.

The personal data stored as part of the application will be deleted if the application is negative. In the event that we start working together, the data will continue to be used for the employment relationship.
Each time you access the website, we automatically collect a range of technical data, which is personal data.
The personal data in log files are processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. This authorization allows the processing of personal data in the "legitimate interest" of the person responsible, provided that your fundamental rights, freedoms or interests do not outweigh this. Our legitimate interest is in the easier administration and the ability to detect and track hacking. You can object to this data processing at any time if there are reasons which exist in your particular situation and which speak against the data processing. All you need to do is send an e-mail to datenschutz@faulenbach-gmbh.de.
IP addresses are assigned to each device (e.g. smartphone, tablet, PC) connected to the Internet. Which IP address this is depends on how your device is currently connected to the Internet. This may be the IP address that your Internet provider has assigned to you, for example, if you are connected to the Internet via your wi-fi at home. It can also be an IP address assigned to you by your mobile phone provider or the IP address of a provider of a public or private wi-fi or other Internet access. In its most common form today (IPv4), the IP address consists of four number blocks. In most cases, as a private user, you will not use a constant IP address, as this is only temporarily assigned to you by your provider (so-called "dynamic IP address"). With a permanently assigned IP address (so-called "static IP address"), a clear assignment of user data is easier in principle. We do not use this data on a personal basis, except for the purpose of tracking unauthorized access to our website , but only evaluate this data on an anonymous basis which of our websites are most popular, how many accesses are made daily and the like.
The server log files with the above data are automatically deleted after 30 days. We reserve the right to store the server log files for longer if facts exist which suggest that somebody is attempting to gain unauthorized access (such as an attempt at hacking or a so-called DDOS attack).
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google LLC ("Google"), 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses several "cookies" (see above) to identify your browser. The information generated by the cookies about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, we have activated the IP anonymization function on this website so that Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to provide the website operator with further services associated with website use and Internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.
The processing of personal data by Google Analytics is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. This authorization allows the processing of personal data in the "legitimate interest" of the person responsible, provided that your fundamental rights, freedoms or interests do not outweigh this. Our legitimate interest is to analyze the use of our website. You can prevent the transmission of data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading an appropriate browser plug-in, a large number of which are available free of charge on the Internet.
The personal reference is removed immediately by the partial deletion of the IP addresses, so that only statistical data is stored.
To simplify your journey to us, we offer you the use of Google Maps to display maps and to create maps directly on our website. Google Maps is operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
When using Google Maps, Google LLC also processes data about the use of the maps functions by visitors to the websites and may transfer it to the USA. Google uses this data for advertising and market research purposes. Google LLC is responsible for this. For more information, visit http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
