Purposes of data processing by responsible person and third parties

We process your personal data exclusively for the purposes stated in this privacy policy. Transfer of your data to third parties for purposes other than those stated here does not take place.  We only share your personal data with third parties if:

• you have given your express consent,
• processing is required to complete a contract with you,
• processing is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation,
• processing is necessary to protect legitimate interests and there is no reason to believe that you have an overriding legitimate interest in not disclosing your information.

Deletion or blocking of data

We adhere to the principles of data avoidance and data economy. That is why we only store your personal data for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes mentioned here or as provided for by the various storage periods dictated by law. After discontinuation of the purpose or expiration of these deadlines, the corresponding data will be routinely and in accordance with statutory provisions either blocked or deleted.

Plugins and Tools

Google Web Fonts

This website uses so-called web fonts provided by Google for the consistent display of fonts. When you open a new page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to ensure that texts and fonts are displayed correctly.
For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to Google’s servers. This will enable Google to identify the IP address you are using to access our website. The usage of Google Web Fonts is based on a standardized and appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font will be used automatically by your computer.
