We do not combine this data with other data sources.
Where required, we have concluded a data processing agreement with our hosting provider pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR.

If you contact us via the contact form, by email or by phone, we process the information you provide in order to handle your enquiry. This may include in particular your name, email address, phone number, selected service and the content of your message.
Processing takes place in order to handle your enquiry and in case of follow-up questions.

This website uses only technically necessary cookies. In detail, the following cookies may be used:
Session cookie
A session cookie, for example PHPSESSID, may be required for the secure operation of the contact form and to protect against misuse. This cookie is usually deleted when you close your browser.
Consent cookie
A cookie, for example ks_consent, may be used to store your decision in the cookie banner or in the cookie settings. The storage period may be up to 12 months.

6. Anonymous visitor statistics without third parties
To improve our website, we measure page views with a self-operated, cookieless statistics system.
The following data may be processed:
page accessed, language setting, device category (for example desktop, tablet or mobile device), referrer domain where applicable, and a one-way pseudonymised daily identifier.
This daily identifier is generated from technical connection data using a cryptographic hash function and a secret salt. It is not reversible, changes daily and serves exclusively for anonymised reach measurement.
No complete IP addresses are stored, no tracking cookies are set and no data is transmitted to third parties.
The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in measuring reach and improving our online offering.
You can object to this measurement at any time via the cookie settings.
7. Web fonts
This website uses fonts for a consistent and attractive presentation of the content.
Where the fonts are embedded locally on our server, no connection to third-party servers takes place.
Should fonts from Google Fonts be loaded via Google servers, this will only occur after your consent. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. When the fonts are loaded, your IP address may be transmitted to Google.
The legal basis for external embedding is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. You can withdraw any consent given at any time with effect for the future.
