We appreciate your interest in our website. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we provide detailed information about how we handle your data.

1. Access Data and Hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time a webpage is accessed, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the volume of data transferred, and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the access. This access data is evaluated solely for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the site and improving our offering. This serves to safeguard our overriding legitimate interests in the correct presentation of our offering in accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, based on a balancing of interests. All access data is processed for as long as is necessary for the purposes described above.
