Insofar as personal data (e.g. name, address or email addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security gaps. It is not possible to provide complete protection of data against access by third parties.

Personal data (usually referred to just as ‘data’ below) will be processed by us only to the extent necessary and for the purpose of providing a functional and user-friendly website, including its contents, and the services offered there.

In addition, we will inform you below about the third-party components we use for optimisation purposes and to increase the quality of use, insofar as third parties process data on their own responsibility.
