The protection of your personal data is second nature for our company. Our website processes personal data, which is collected during your visit, exclusively in accordance with the statutory provisions. It is important to us that you know at all times when we save what data and how we use it. To this extent, we therefore want to inform you how we process your data and how important this is for you in concrete terms when using our website.
Personal data
Personal data is individual information about natural persons, which allows conclusions about their personal, economic or actual relationships. This includes, for example, your (IP) address and contact details.
Usage data:
In principle, you can view our website without the specific provision of personal data. However, when using our homepage, some personal data, so-called usage data, is automatically created.
This is data that in principle allows you to be identified (in particular from the IP address assigned to you), and the start, end and extent of use of our offer to be determined. For advertising and market research purposes, or for requirement-based design of our homepage, we can also create usage profiles while using pseudonyms. To this extent, we expressly refer to your right of refusal. If you refuse, please contact the people responsible for the contents of this homepage as named in the Legal Notice.
Our website also uses so-called "Cookies". These are small text files that are sent by the webserver to your PC and are typically saved on your hard drive. These are not programs that penetrate the user's system and can cause damage. Although cookies can identify the computer used by you, cookies themselves do not save personal data. If you visit our website again, the cookie shows that this is a repeat visit. You can set your browser so that cookies are rejected or you are informed first when a cookie is saved. More information about this can be found in the operating instructions for your internet browser (e.g. Internet Explorer).
Moreover, data, e.g. your email address, is transmitted voluntarily. All the personal data provided by you is treated according to the applicable data protection legislation. The data is processed exclusively for the concrete purpose. Your details are not forwarded to third parties. There are exceptions where it is necessary to forward data for your enquiry.
