How We Use Your Personal Data

We only use your personal data to answer your inquiry, to process your order or to provide you with access to further information or offers.

In doing so, we follow the principle of data economy by only collecting, storing, processing and using such data to serve the stated purpose. Please note that not all information is mandatory. We do not create user profiles. Furthermore, we collect data on the number of visits to our websites. This information provides us with information about the general interests and preferences of our visitors. However, such data is not personal, but only of a statistical nature. Furthermore, we automatically collect and store information that is transmitted to us by your browser, e.g. the IP address. All personal data is processed in accordance with legal requirements.

If we use subcontractors or agents who require such data in order to provide the services you wish to use, we will transmit such data to the extent necessary. In this case, we oblige our partners to treat such data confidentially in accordance with the statutory provisions and to delete it immediately as soon as it is no longer required. Please understand, however, that we cannot completely monitor compliance with this obligation. As such, we shall not be liable for any infringements. Furthermore, we do not pass on collected data to third parties; in particular, we do not sell, rent or exchange such data.
All data is stored or processed separately and at no time is it compiled together. Personal data shall be stored for a maximum of 6 months or until the service you have requested is fulfilled. You may at any time request the deletion of all or part of your data. We will comply with such request immediately.
