SSL or TLS Encryption/Security
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as a website operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This ensures that the data you transmit through this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the "https://" address bar in your browser and the padlock symbol in the browser's address bar.
Server Log Files
The provider of the website automatically collects and stores information that your browser transmits to us in server log files. These are:
-
Browser type and browser version
-
Used operating system
-
Referrer URL
-
Hostname of the accessing computer
-
Time of the server request
-
IP address
These data are not combined with other data sources. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures.
​
Contact Form
Data submitted via the contact form, including your contact details, will be stored to process your inquiry or to be available for follow-up questions. These data will not be shared without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time. For the withdrawal, an informal message via email is sufficient. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.
Data submitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request their deletion, withdraw your consent for storage, or there is no longer a need to store the data. Mandatory legal provisions, particularly retention periods, remain unaffected.
