If personal data (name, postal address or email address) are collected within our website, this is done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. We only use the personal details provided by you to carry out your wishes and requests.

Deletion of data and storage period
The collected data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the reason for storing it no longer applies. Longer storage periods may apply as required by European or national law. Data will also be deleted or blocked once a storage period established by the above mentioned standards comes to an end, unless the data must continue to be stored for the purpose of concluding or executing a contract.

SSL encryption
This site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as the inquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection in your browser's address line when it changes from "http://" to "https://" and the lock icon is displayed in your browser's address bar. If SSL encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

If personal data (name, postal address or email address) are collected within our website, this is done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. Should you send us questions via email or the contact form, we will collect the data entered on the form, including the contact details you provide, to answer your question and any follow-up questions. We do not share this information without your permission.
We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (for example, when communicating via e-mail) may involve security gaps. A seamless protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

However, you should bear in mind that some functions of our online services may not be fully accessible if you deactivate cookies.

IP anonymization

We have activated the IP anonymization feature on this website. Your IP address will be shortened by Google within the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area prior to transmission to the United States. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services regarding website activity and Internet usage for the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with any other data held by Google.

This site uses the Google Maps map service via an API. It is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
