This data is used solely for responding to your inquiry or for contacting you and the related technical administration. The data collected in this context will be deleted when storage is no longer required or processing will be restricted if there are statutory retention obligations.

We already implement data protection today in accordance with the requirements of the European General Data Protection Regulation. We comply with the technical and organizational requirements and obligations as privacy by default and privacy by design (data protection by default settings and data protection through technology design).
We always review the principles of clear purpose limitation and information of data subjects when collecting data, against the background of data minimization.
When using our online services, technical parameters of those accessing them are collected. These remain anonymized and serve only to optimize the website and, ultimately, to make access easier for the user.

This is the case when processing is not necessary for the performance of a contract with you, as detailed in the subsequent description of the functions. If you object, please explain why we should stop processing your data. In case of a justified objection, we will examine the situation and either stop or adjust data processing or demonstrate our compelling legitimate grounds for continuing the processing.
