When disabling cookies, the functionality of this site may be limited.
Cookies that are required for carrying out the electronic communication operation or to provide you certain desirable functions (e.g., contact), were saved on the basis of Article 6 (1) lit. f (GDPR). The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (such as cookies for analyzing your surfing behavior) are stored, they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.

A merge of this data with other data sources will not be done. The basis for data processing is Article 6 (1) lit. f (GDPR), which allows the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored in order to process the request and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this information without your consent.

The information you provide in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage or delete the purpose for data storage (for example, after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - especially retention periods - remain unaffected.
