SSL

Due to the technical structure of the Internet as an open network, secure transmission of your data cannot be guaranteed in all cases. If you send your personal information to us, you always do so at your own risk.

To ensure the protection of your transmitted data, we use encryption mechanisms in accordance with current security standards (Transport Layer Security, TLS). TLS is a protocol for secure data transmission on the Internet and is supported by most browsers. It uses the public key method, in which data can be encrypted with a publicly accessible key and only decrypted with a specific private key. Most browsers indicate whether a connection is secure using a key icon or padlock.

We take various technical and organizational security precautions to ensure the protection of your data within our system. However, we would like to point out that despite these measures, there is a risk of data loss, unauthorized access to or manipulation of the data by third parties. Please also note that certain network sections and your computer lie outside our controllable security area. As a user, you are responsible for informing yourself about the necessary security precautions and taking the necessary measures within your sphere of influence. Liability on our part for damages that you incur as a result of data loss or manipulation is fundamentally excluded.

Retention of data

We only store your data for as long as it is necessary for the purposes we have stated or as we are legally or contractually obliged to do so. Data that is no longer necessary for the stated purposes in the future will be deleted by us as part of our regular data maintenance or, alternatively, anonymized.

Update

This data protection information is not part of the contract and can be changed by us at any time. The version published here applies.
