Cookies are small text files that are stored on your com­puter and saved by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called “ses­sion cookies”. They are auto­mat­ic­ally deleted at the end of your visit to the web­site. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recog­nise your browser the next time you visit. You can set your browser so that you are informed about the use of cookies and to only allow cookies in spe­cific cases, exclude the accept­ance of cookies for cer­tain cases or in gen­eral, and enable the auto­matic dele­tion of cookies when you close the browser. If cookies are deac­tiv­ated, the func­tion­ality of this web­site may be limited.
Cookies that are required to carry out cer­tain elec­tronic com­mu­nic­a­tion pro­cesses or to provide func­tions you require are stored on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.f GDPR. The web­site oper­ator has a legit­imate interest in the storage of cookies for the tech­nic­ally error-free and optim­ized pro­vi­sion of its services. If other cookies (e.g. cookies for ana­lysing your browsing beha­viour) are stored, these will be treated sep­ar­ately in this data pro­tec­tion declaration.

Server-Log Files

The pro­vider of the web­site auto­mat­ic­ally col­lects and stores inform­a­tion in so-called server log files, which your browser auto­mat­ic­ally trans­mits to us. These are: browser type and browser ver­sion, oper­ating system used, referrer URL, host name of the accessing com­puter, time of the server request, IP address. This data will not be merged with other data sources. The basis for this data pro­cessing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR, which allows the pro­cessing of data for the ful­fil­ment of a con­tract or pre-con­trac­tual measures.

Con­tact form

If you send us inquiries using the con­tact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the con­tact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the pur­pose of pro­cessing the request and in case of any follow-up ques­tions. This data will not be dis­closed without your pre­vious con­sent. The pro­cessing of the data entered in the con­tact form takes place solely on the basis of your con­sent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can retract this con­sent at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal email. The leg­ality of the data pro­cessing oper­a­tions car­ried out before the with­drawal of con­sent remains unaf­fected by the with­drawal. The data you enter in the con­tact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, with­draw your con­sent to storage or the pur­pose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been pro­cessed). Man­datory legal pro­vi­sions – in par­tic­ular reten­tion periods – remain unaffected.
