1. General Information

The following notes provide a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website. Personal data is any data with which you could be personally identified.

Who is responsible for the data collection on this website? The data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator (the Data Controller). You can find their contact details below.

How do we collect your data? Some data is collected when you provide it to us (for example, by filling out a contact form). Other data is collected automatically by our IT systems when you visit the website (such as technical data like your internet browser, operating system, or time of the page request). These technical server log files are temporarily stored and automatically deleted or anonymized by our hosting provider after a short period, typically within 14 days. The collection of this data is based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in ensuring the secure and error-free operation of this website.

What do we use your data for? Part of the data is collected to ensure the website is provided error-free and securely. Other data may be used to analyze user behavior in an anonymized way. We do not use your data for advertising or cross-site tracking.

SSL or TLS Encryption For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you send to us via the contact form, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection in your browser’s address line when it changes from “http://” to “https://” and the lock icon is displayed. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

Cookies
This website may use transient or session cookies that are technically necessary to provide core website functionality (such as underlying security features). These are strictly necessary for the operation of the site and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. The storage of these technical cookies is based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in providing a secure, functional, and error-free website.
