Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we explain how we handle your data when you visit this website.

1. Access data and hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time a page is accessed, the web server automatically stores a server log file. This includes, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the volume of data transferred and the requesting provider.

This access data is analysed exclusively to ensure that the site operates smoothly and to improve our services. In accordance with Art. 6(1), first sentence, point (f) GDPR, this serves to safeguard our overriding legitimate interests in presenting our services correctly. Access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit, unless a legal obligation or a security incident requires longer retention.

Hosting providers supply services for making this website available and displaying it as part of processing on our behalf. Processing takes place on servers within the European Union or the European Economic Area.

2. Contact and contract performance

We collect personal data when you provide it to us as part of an order or when contacting us, for example through a contact form or by email. Mandatory fields are marked as such. We use the data provided in accordance with Art. 6(1), first sentence, point (b) GDPR to perform the contract and handle your enquiry.

Once processing of the matter is complete, further processing of your data is restricted, and the data is deleted after the retention periods under tax and commercial law have expired, unless you have consented to further use or we reserve the right to use the data further as permitted by law.

3. Disclosure of data

Where necessary to perform the contract, we disclose data to providers commissioned to deliver the services. For payment processing, the necessary data may be transferred to the commissioned bank or the selected payment service provider. The privacy policy of the respective payment service provider also applies.

4. Email newsletter

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use the data required for this purpose or provided separately to send you our email newsletter on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1), first sentence, point (a) GDPR.

You can unsubscribe at any time using the link provided in the newsletter or by contacting us. After you unsubscribe, we delete your email address or block it from receiving further newsletters, unless further use permitted by law prevents this.
