1. Access Data and Hosting

You can visit our websites without providing personal information. Each time a page is accessed, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file, which includes, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider (access data), documenting the access.

This access data is used solely to ensure the smooth operation of the site and to improve our offer. This is based on our legitimate interests under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after your visit.

Hosting
The hosting and display of the website are partially provided by our service providers as part of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise explained in this privacy policy, all access data and data collected through forms on this website are processed on their servers. For questions about our service providers and the basis of our collaboration with them, please contact us via the contact information provided in this privacy policy.

This service provider is located within a country of the European Union or the European Economic Area.


2. Data Processing for Contract Execution and Contact
