Privacy Policy

Information Obligation Statement

The protection of your personal data is of particular concern to us. We therefore process your data exclusively on the basis of legal provisions (GDPR, TKG 2003). In this privacy policy, we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing within the framework of our website.

Contact with Us

If you contact us via the form on the website or by e-mail, the data you provide will be stored by us for six months for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

Spam Protection with Cloudflare Turnstile

To protect our contact and inquiry forms from automated misuse (spam, bots), we use Cloudflare Turnstile, a service of Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. When a form is loaded, Turnstile checks in the background whether the request comes from a human. For this purpose, Cloudflare processes technical data, in particular your IP address, the user agent of your browser, a TLS fingerprint and the page on which the form is embedded. Turnstile does not use this data for advertising purposes; Cloudflare may use it to improve bot detection. The result of the check is verified by our server when the form is submitted.

The processing is based on Art 6 para 1 lit f GDPR (legitimate interest). Our legitimate interest lies in protecting our website and forms from misuse and in reliably processing genuine inquiries. Cloudflare, Inc. is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, on the basis of which the European Commission has issued an adequacy decision for data transfers to the USA.

Your IP address is recorded but immediately pseudonymized (e.g. by deleting the last 8 bits). This makes only a rough localization possible. The relationship with the web analytics provider is based on an adequacy decision of the European Commission with the USA: "Privacy Shield". Data processing is based on the legal provisions of § 96 Para. 3 TKG as well as Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a (consent) and/or f (legitimate interest) of the GDPR. Our concern in the sense of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is the improvement of our offer and our website. Since the privacy of our users is important to us, user data is pseudonymized.
