Data Protection
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.
The use of our website is generally possible without disclosing personal data. Where personal data (e.g., name, address, or email address) is collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis. Such data will not be disclosed to third parties without your explicit consent.
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data from unauthorized access is not possible.
Collection and Storage of Personal Data (Server Log Files)
When you visit our website, the browser used on your device automatically sends information to the server hosting our website. This information is temporarily stored in log files. The following information is collected automatically and stored until deletion:
- IP address of the requesting computer
- Date and time of access
- Name and URL of the retrieved file
- Website from which access is made (referrer URL)
- Hostname of the accessing computer
- Browser used and, if applicable, your operating system as well as the name of your access provider
This data is processed for the following purposes:
- Ensuring a smooth connection setup of the website
- Providing a comfortable user experience
- Evaluating system security and stability
- Other administrative purposes
The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is based on the purposes of data collection as described above. In no case do we use the collected data to draw conclusions about your person. We reserve the right to review these data at a later date if there are concrete indications of unlawful use.
The collection of these data is necessary for the proper provision of our web service. Thus, the use of our website is considered as consent to the storage and use of your data as described.
Google Analytics
The tracking measures described here are carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. Their purpose is to ensure a demand-oriented design and continuous optimization of our website. We also use these measures to statistically record the usage of our website and to evaluate it in order to optimize our services. These interests are considered legitimate pursuant to the aforementioned provision.
For the purpose of designing and continuously optimizing our pages, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter “Google”). In this context, pseudonymized usage profiles are created and cookies (see below) are used. The information generated by the cookie, such as:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL (the previously visited page)
- Hostname of the accessing computer (IP address)
- Time of the server request
This information is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. It is used to evaluate website usage, compile reports on website activities, and provide further services in connection with website/internet usage for market research purposes and the design of our website. In addition, this information may be transmitted to third parties if legally required or if third parties process these data on our behalf. Under no circumstances are your IP addresses merged with other data from Google. The IP addresses are anonymized (IP masking) so that an assignment is not possible.
You can prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting your browser settings, though this may limit the full functionality of our website.
You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) as well as its processing by Google by downloading and installing a browser add-on.
Alternatively, particularly on mobile browsers, you can prevent data collection by clicking the provided opt-out link. An opt-out cookie is set that prevents the future collection of your data upon visiting this website. This cookie applies only to your browser and our website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies, the opt-out cookie must be set again.
Additional information on data protection in connection with Google Analytics can be found in the corresponding help documentation.
Google reCAPTCHA
We use Google reCAPTCHA on our website. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
Google reCAPTCHA is used to verify whether data input on our website (e.g. via a contact form) is made by a human or an automated program. For this purpose, Google reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically as soon as the visitor enters the website. Google reCAPTCHA evaluates various pieces of information (e.g. IP address, duration of visit, mouse movements) and transmits the collected data to Google.
The analysis by Google reCAPTCHA occurs in the background. Additionally, the reCAPTCHA plugin is displayed under contact forms and requires the visitor to solve a challenge.
Data processing is performed in accordance with Art. 6(1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting the website from abusive automated data collection and spam.
Further details about Google reCAPTCHA and Google’s privacy policy can be obtained from the respective links in the original version.

When you contact us via email, the data you provide (such as your email address and, if applicable, your name and telephone number) is stored for the purpose of responding to your inquiry.
The data processed in this context will be deleted once it is no longer necessary or will be processed in a restricted manner if statutory retention periods apply.
Data processing for contacting us is carried out pursuant to Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR on the basis of your voluntarily given consent.
Sharing of Personal Data
For processing your inquiry, it may be necessary for us to forward your personal data to affiliated companies or external service providers acting exclusively on our behalf. Such service providers may, for example, be contracted to send promotional material to you.
We require that all affiliated companies and external service providers process your personal data strictly in accordance with our instructions, this privacy policy, and applicable legal requirements for data processing.
Without your initiation, we do not pass on or sell your personal data to third parties. We only share your personal data with third parties if:
- You have given your explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR,
- The sharing is necessary for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims pursuant to Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR and there is no overriding interest on your side,
- There is a legal obligation pursuant to Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, or
- It is necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you pursuant to Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR.
Use of Web Fonts
On these web pages, external fonts (Google Fonts) provided by Google Inc. (“Google”) are used. The integration of these fonts is executed via a server call (typically to one of Google’s servers in the USA). This call transmits information regarding the visited page to Google. Additionally, the IP address of your browser is stored by Google. Please refer to Google’s privacy policy for further details.
