This website uses no analytics tools, no advertising networks and no social media plugins. There is no contact form; enquiries reach us exclusively by email or telephone.

Personal data collected on this website is stored on the host’s servers. This may include IP addresses, metadata and communication data, website access data and other data generated via a website.
The host is used in the interest of the secure, fast and efficient provision of our online offering by a professional provider (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).
Server log files
The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in server log files, which your browser transmits automatically. These are: browser type and version, operating system used, referrer URL, host name of the accessing computer, time of the server request and IP address. This data is not merged with other data sources. It is collected on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
4. Cookies
This website uses technically necessary cookies only. One cookie stores your chosen language so that the website appears in the same language on your next visit. Further cookies are only created when signing in to the editorial area of the website. No analytics, marketing or third-party cookies are used, so no consent is required under § 25 (2) TDDDG. A full overview is available under Cookie Settings.
5. Contact by email or telephone
If you contact us by email or telephone, your enquiry including all resulting personal data (name, enquiry, contact details) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR where your enquiry relates to the performance of a contract or to pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).
The data you send us remains with us until you ask us to delete it, withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data ceases to apply. Mandatory statutory provisions — in particular statutory retention periods — remain unaffected.
6. SSL / TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.
7. Your rights as a data subject
Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to information about your stored personal data (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20), objection to processing (Art. 21) and withdrawal of consent with effect for the future (Art. 7 (3)).
You can contact us at any time regarding these and other questions about data protection (contact details under point 2).
