A duty to appoint a data protection officer does not exist for our company in accordance with Article 37 of the General Data Protection Regulation, in conjunction with § 38 of the Federal Data Protection Act, as amended.

Personal Data
Only personal data is subject to data protection. In accordance with Article 4 No. 1 of the General Data Protection Information, “personal data” is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This particularly includes information such as names, addresses, e-mail addresses and telephone numbers, as well as use data, such as IP addresses.

Use and Purpose of Data Collection
In general, the disclosure of personal data is not necessary for use of our website. Pursuant to Article 6(1)f of the General Data Protection Regulation, if you use our website merely for the purpose of obtaining information, i.e. if you do not transmit any data via the website, we will only collect the personal data which is transmitted to our server by your browser, which is technically necessary to display our website on your computer and which is necessary to ensure the stability and security of the website, specifically:

This data will be deleted immediately after your visit to the website ends.

However, we do need your personal data to provide our services. We will only collect, store and use your personal data to the extent necessary to bring about and perform a contract. This may include contact details of the contact person, billing data or similar. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)b of the General Data Protection Regulation. This may also include the storage and processing of the personal data of third parties, e.g. employees or customers, in the course of the audit of financial statements. We also store and process personal data for the sending of informational material, the preparation of offers and to answer individual questions.

Transmission to third parties
Personal data will not be passed on to third parties unless this is necessary for the provision of the service or the execution of the contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)b of the General Data Protection Regulation. Apart from the provision of the service and the execution of the contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)b of the General Data Protection Regulation, authorities or other government institutions will only disclose personal data within the scope of the statutory duty to provide information or on the basis of court decisions pursuant to Art. 6(1)c of the General Data Protection RegulationR.

We take extensive technical and operational security precautions to protect your personal data against unauthorized access and abuse. Our security procedures for protecting data against damage, destruction or unauthorized access are routinely tested and adapted to conform with advances in technology.

This website uses cookies and plugins. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your hard drive for use by the browser. Cookies cannot execute programs or transmit malware and are used to make the website more user-friendly and/or efficient by storing certain information.

Cookies and Plugins
We set a so-called “transient cookie” or “session cookie” when you visit our website. This cookie logs the data that is technically required to display our website on your computer and ensures the stability and security of the website. We have a legitimate interest in this pursuant to Art. 6(1)f of the General Data Protection Regulation. The cookie is automatically deleted as soon as you close your browser.

If you do not want us to recognise your computer, this is also possible; you can prevent cookies from being stored on your hard drive by selecting “do not accept cookies” in your browser settings. You can find out how this works from the instructions of your browser manufacturer. If you do not accept cookies, however, this may lead to functional restrictions with regard to our content.

Plugins are small programs or program packages with which software can be adapted and extended according to your own needs. Such plugins are installed on our server and extend the functions of our website beyond their mere display.

With the exception of the session cookie and the services listed below, we do not use cookies or plug-ins that process personal data.

Google Web Fonts
This website uses “web fonts” provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland, to enable the display of fonts in a uniform manner. When requesting a page, your browser loads the necessary web fonts in its browser cache in order to correctly display texts and fonts.

For this purpose, the browser you are using must be connected to Google servers. In this way, Google will learn that a request for our website was made through your IP address. Google Web Fonts are used in the interest of the uniform and attractive display of our online offerings. This represents a legitimate interest in terms of Article 6(1)f of the General Data Protection Regulation. In order to ensure a consistent and appealing presentation, it is necessary to integrate Google’s servers because this is the only way to ensure that the latest web fonts can always be loaded. If fonts were only tracked locally, an adequate representation of the website could not be guaranteed at all times.

More information about Google Web Fonts can be found at More information click here! and in the Google Privacy Policy: More information click here!

Social Media Plugins
We do not use social media plugins on our websites. If our websites contain icons from social media providers (e.g. Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram), we only use these for passive linking to the pages of the respective providers.

Commissioned data processing
We have concluded a contract with Google for order data processing and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google’s services.

SSL encryption
This website uses SSL encryption for reasons of security and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the inquiries you send to us, as the website operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line in the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and from the lock icon in your browser’s address line. When SSL encryption is activated, the data you transit to us cannot be read by third parties.
