This includes, in particular, the IP address, the date and time of access, the content accessed, and information about the browser and operating system used.
Processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the secure, stable, and error-free provision of the website.
The data is processed only for as long as is necessary for the provision and security of the website. Storage beyond this period occurs only if there is a specific reason or a legal obligation to do so.
5. Cookies and Similar Technologies
This website uses cookies and similar technologies. This may involve storing information on your device or retrieving information from your device.
To the extent that this is strictly necessary for the operation of the website and the provision of the functions you have expressly requested, the storage or access is based on Section 25(2)(2) of the TDDDG. Consent is not required for this.
For all cookies and similar technologies that are not strictly necessary—in particular those used for preferences, statistics, analysis, marketing, the personalization of content or ads, and the integration of external services—the storage of information on your device or access to information on your device is based solely on your consent in accordance with Section 25(1) of the TDDDG.
To the extent that personal data is processed in connection with strictly necessary technologies, such processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the secure, stable, and user-friendly operation of this website. To the extent that processing is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures or for the performance of a contract, it is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.
To the extent that personal data is processed in connection with non-essential cookies or similar technologies, such processing is based on your consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.
You may withdraw your consent at any time with future effect via the cookie settings or change your selection. The lawfulness of the processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected.
6. Contact via Email and Contact Form
If you contact us via email or through our contact form, we will process the data you provide to handle your inquiry and for any follow-up questions.
If your inquiry is aimed at initiating or performing a contract, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. In other cases, processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the proper handling of inquiries directed to us. If you have expressly consented, processing is based on Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.
We delete the data as soon as it is no longer necessary for processing your inquiry and there are no legal retention obligations or other legitimate reasons for further storage. General inquiries are generally deleted no later than twelve months after processing is completed. If a contractual relationship arises from the inquiry or if the communication concerns documents relevant under tax or commercial law, the applicable statutory retention periods apply.

In particular, it allows services for audience measurement, analysis, and marketing purposes to be integrated and controlled.
Tags that are not strictly necessary—in particular, statistics, analytics, and marketing tags—are only activated after you have consented to the respective processing via the consent management feature. Without such consent, these optional tags will not be triggered.
To the extent that personal data is processed in connection with Google Tag Manager, this is done on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the technically reliable and consent-based control of the services used on this website.
