All the data you enter on our sites is transmitted to us in encrypted form. The same applies for the delivery of our web pages. It applies even when you access the site without specifying encryption (using http protocol instead of https); the site’s response to such unencrypted access is automatically encrypted.

When you visit our websites, we automatically process the following data from you in order to be able to provide our websites and the services provided via them:

Longer storage only takes place in justified individual cases (e.g. in the event of suspected abuse or fraud or in the event of attacks on our web server). In these cases, the respective log files are stored until the facts of the case have been clarified and the resulting measures have been completed.

In order to be able to provide you with our website and the services provided via them, we use a ser-vice provider (web hoster) who processes your data on our behalf and exclusively in accordance with our instructions.
