General information

The operator of this website takes the protection of your personal data very seriously. Personal data are all data with which you can be personally identified. We treat your personal usage data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration. The following information provides a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit our website. If third-party offers can be accessed from our website via hyperlinks, this information does not apply to these linked offers.

As a rule, our website can be used without providing personal data. Different rules may apply to the use of individual services on our site, which in this case are explained separately below. This data is used by us to guarantee an error-free provision of the website and to make our service as pleasant as possible for you and to improve it.

Insofar as personal data (e.g. name, address, telephone number, email, etc.) is collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis, as far as possible. If you decide to provide us with personal data via the Internet, e.g. Correspondence can be processed or an order can be executed, this data will be handled carefully in accordance with the strict regulations of the provisions of German data protection law and will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. The data stored by us will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for their intended purpose and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory retention requirements.

We expressly point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) has security gaps. It is therefore not possible to completely protect data from access by third parties.

It may happen that third-party content, such as graphics, fonts or videos from other websites, is integrated into this online offer. This always presupposes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”) perceive the IP address of the users. Because without the IP address, they could not send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. We strive to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, we have no influence on whether the third-party provider uses the IP address e.g. save for statistical purposes. As far as we know, we will inform the users about it.
