Privacy Policy

We only process personal data (hereinafter referred to as “data”) to the extent necessary and for the purpose of providing a functional and user-friendly website, including its content and the services offered there.

According to Art. 4 No. 1 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter “GDPR”), “processing” means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means. This includes the collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction of data.

With the following privacy policy, we inform you in particular about the type, scope, purpose, duration, and legal basis of the processing of personal data, insofar as we either alone or jointly with others decide on the purposes and means of processing. Additionally, we inform you about third-party components we use to optimize and improve the quality of user experience, insofar as third parties process data under their own responsibility.

Our privacy policy is structured as follows:

I. Information about the data controller
II. Rights of users and data subjects
III. Information on data processing
