Purposes of Data Processing by the Responsible Entity and Third Parties

We process your personal data only for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy.

Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed here.

We only share your personal data with third parties if:

  • You have given your explicit consent
  • Processing is required to fulfill a contract with you
  • Processing is required to meet a legal obligation
  • Processing is necessary to safeguard legitimate interests and there is no reason to assume you have an overriding interest in the nondisclosure of your data

Deletion or Blocking of Data

We adhere to the principles of data minimization.


We therefore store your personal data only as long as necessary to achieve the purposes mentioned here or as required by the various statutory retention periods. After the respective purpose ceases or these periods expire, the corresponding data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.

Collection of General Information When Visiting Our Website

When you access our website, information of a general nature is automatically collected via a cookie. This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your internet service provider, and similar data. These are exclusively technical details that do not allow any inference about your identity.

This information is technically necessary in order to correctly deliver the content of the website you requested and is mandatory when using the internet. The data is processed in particular for the following purposes:

  • Ensuring a smooth connection to the website
  • Ensuring smooth use of our website
  • Evaluation of system security and stability
  • Other administrative purposes

The processing of your personal data is based on our legitimate interest arising from the purposes listed above. We do not use this data to draw conclusions about your identity. The only recipients of this data are the responsible entity and, if applicable, commissioned processors.

Anonymous information of this kind may be statistically analyzed by us to optimize our website and the underlying technology.

Cookies

Like many other websites, we also use “cookies.” Cookies are small text files transferred from a website server to your hard drive. This allows us to automatically receive certain data, such as your IP address, the browser used, the operating system, and your internet connection.

Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. The information contained in cookies helps us facilitate navigation and ensure the correct display of our web pages.

Under no circumstances will we transfer the data collected by cookies to third parties or link it to personal data without your consent. Of course, you may view our website without cookies. Internet browsers are typically configured to accept cookies automatically. You can generally deactivate the use of cookies at any time via your browser settings.

Please use your browser’s help functions to learn how to change these settings.
Please note that some functions of our website may not work properly if you disable cookies.

Provision of Paid Services

To provide paid services, we request additional data (such as payment information) in order to process your order. We store this data in our systems until the legally mandated retention periods have expired.

Contact Form

If you contact us by email or via the contact form regarding any type of inquiry, you voluntarily give us your consent for the purpose of contacting you. A valid email address is required to classify and respond to your request. Any additional information is optional. The data you provide will be stored for the purpose of processing your inquiry as well as for possible follow-up questions. Once your inquiry has been completed, personal data is automatically deleted.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to adapt this Privacy Policy so that it always complies with current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services within the policy—for example, when introducing new services.
The new privacy policy will then apply to your next visit.
