Visiting our website for information purposes

If you visit our website for information only, the following applies:

Log data

The following categories of personal data are provided by your browser and stored in our server log files:

  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Referrer URL (previously visited page)
  • IP address of the device used
  • Time of access

Processing is based on our legitimate interests in providing the website and ensuring its security (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Without this data, the website cannot be delivered to your device.

Cookies and local storage

This static website does not provide WordPress user accounts, comments or contact forms. It uses technically necessary browser storage to remember your language selection and your consent status. The consent status is stored without a unique user ID and is renewed after no more than 6 months. You can delete this data in your browser at any time.

Google Tag

The website uses Google Tag (gtag.js) only after your active consent to integrate and configure Google measurement services, especially usage statistics for this website. Provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

If analytics measurement is activated, Google may process usage data such as page views, device and browser information, referrer information, approximate location and IP address. We use these services to analyse use of the website and improve the online offer. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) and, where applicable, your consent to access information on your device under German cookie law. For any third-country transfers, Google relies in particular on EU Standard Contractual Clauses and further safeguards.

You can refuse analytics without losing access to the gallery. You can also change or withdraw your choice at any time via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer. If you withdraw consent, future analytics processing is stopped and Google Analytics cookies that are technically accessible to this website are deleted.

Contact by e-mail

If you contact us by e-mail, we process the data you provide to handle your request and any follow-up. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in processing inquiries (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Without this data, we cannot answer your inquiry.

Recipients and processors

We use external technical service providers, for example for hosting, security and anti-abuse measures, who act strictly on our instructions as processors (Art. 28 GDPR). Where necessary, we disclose personal data to such providers or to authorities/courts when legally obliged. If a transfer requires consent, we request it in advance.

Third-country transfers

Where personal data is transferred to third countries outside the EU/EEA, this occurs on the basis of your consent, legal obligations, performance of a contract or our legitimate interests and with appropriate safeguards, such as EU Standard Contractual Clauses. See the service-specific notes above, especially regarding Google Tag.

Storage periods

Unless otherwise stated or consented to, we store personal data for the duration of your website visit or the business relationship and then delete it. Statutory retention periods, for example under German commercial or tax law, may apply for up to 10 years. During retention, processing is restricted.

Your rights

Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)

You may object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. In case of objection, we will stop processing unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests and rights, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Further rights

Where the legal requirements are met, you have the right of access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18) and data portability (Art. 20) regarding data you provided to us that is processed by automated means based on consent or contract.

How to exercise your rights / objections

Please write to: Wirtschaftsgemeinschaft Zoologischer Fachbetriebe (WZF) GmbH - Data Protection, Mainzer Str. 10, 65185 Wiesbaden, Germany.

Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR), in particular with your place of residence or with our competent authority: The Hessian Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (HBDI), Wiesbaden.

Status: 9 July 2026. We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy as required. Significant changes will be highlighted on this page.
