We take data protection seriously

The protection of your private sphere when processing personal data is of great importance to us. When you visit our website, our web servers save the IP address of your Internet service provider, the website from which you are visiting us, our websites which you are visiting and the date and duration of the visit as standard. This information is necessary for the technical transfer of the website and secure operation of the server. No personalised evaluation of this data takes place.

Should you send us data via the contact form, this data is saved on our servers in the course of data backup. Your data is only used by us in order to process your matter. Your data is treated in the strictest confidence. The data is not passed on to third parties.
