Cookies
Some of the web pages on this site use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies help make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.
You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set, to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to block cookies in specific cases or generally, and to enable the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies that are necessary for carrying out the electronic communication process or for providing certain functions you have requested (e.g., the shopping cart function) are stored pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. To the extent that other cookies (e.g., cookies used to analyze your browsing behavior) are stored, these are addressed separately in this Privacy Policy.

This data is not combined with data from other sources.
This data is collected pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in ensuring that its website functions properly and is optimized—to this end, server log files must be collected.
Contact Form
If you submit an inquiry to us via the contact form, we will store the information you provide in the form—including the contact information you enter there—for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case we have any follow-up questions. We will not share this information without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). You may revoke this consent at any time. To do so, simply send us an informal email. The lawfulness of the data processing operations carried out prior to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request that we delete it, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions—in particular retention periods—remain unaffected.

We use the information you provide solely for the purpose of using the specific offering or service for which you have registered. You must provide all required information requested during registration. Otherwise, we will reject your registration.
For important changes—such as changes to the scope of our offerings or technically necessary changes—we will use the email address you provided during registration to notify you.
The processing of the data you provide during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, simply send us an informal email. The lawfulness of any data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by the withdrawal of your consent.
We will store the data collected during registration for as long as you remain registered on our website, after which it will be deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
Processing of Data (Customer and Contract Data)
We collect, process, and use personal data only to the extent necessary to establish, define the terms of, or modify the legal relationship (master data). This is done in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of precontractual measures. We collect, process, and use personal data regarding the use of our websites (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable the user to access the service or to bill the user.
The customer data collected will be deleted upon completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Our website uses plugins from YouTube, a site operated by Google. The site is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.
