We only transfer data outside the scope of the GDPR (e.g. to the USA) if you consent or if there is another legal basis. In the case of US services, we ensure an appropriate level of data protection, for example through the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses.
We protect your data through technical and organisational measures such as encryption (e.g. TLS/HTTPS), access restrictions and regular security checks.
If you contact us by telephone, e-mail or online form, we will store and process your details in order to deal with your enquiry. The data will be stored for as long as is necessary for the respective business case and legal requirements.
We commission external service providers (e.g. web hosts, cloud providers) with the processing of personal data. We conclude so-called order processing contracts with these service providers, which ensure that your data is processed exclusively in accordance with our specifications and in compliance with the GDPR.

We use the services of Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany, to host our website. Hetzner operates data centres in Germany and Finland and specialises in high-performance, secure and sustainable hosting.
We want to provide you with a fast, stable and secure website. To do this, we need a reliable hosting provider that fulfils the technical requirements for trouble-free and secure operation of our website. Hetzner offers us this basis by storing and processing all data securely on servers in Germany or Finland.
When you visit our website, certain technical data is automatically processed by Hetzner and stored in so-called server log files. This includes in particular
The full Internet address (URL) of the page called up
Browser type and version
Operating system used
The address of the previously visited page (referrer URL)
Host name and IP address of the accessing end device
Date and time of access
Amount of data transferred
Status messages (e.g. error codes)
This data is stored and analysed exclusively to ensure the smooth operation of the website, to improve the service and to detect and defend against attacks. This data is not merged with other data sources.
The log files with the above-mentioned data are generally stored by Hetzner for 14 days and then automatically deleted, provided that there are no statutory retention obligations or the data is not required for longer for security reasons.
You have the right to information, correction, deletion and restriction of the processing of your personal data at any time. The storage of the data is technically necessary so that the website can be displayed correctly; an objection to the processing is therefore only possible if you do not visit our website.
We have concluded an order processing contract with Hetzner in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. This ensures that Hetzner only processes personal data in accordance with our instructions and within the framework of the General Data Protection Regulation.
We use modular systems for the simple administration and design of our website. In the process, technical usage data and possibly personal data (e.g. IP address, location data) may be processed by the provider. For details, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective modular system provider.
We use analysis tools such as Google Analytics to optimise our website. Pseudonymised usage data (e.g. click behaviour, session duration, location) is recorded. This data is only stored and processed with your consent and in compliance with data protection regulations.
To send newsletters and promotional emails, we process your email address and any other information you provide voluntarily. You can object to receiving newsletters at any time and unsubscribe.
We operate profiles on various social media platforms and may integrate their functions on our website. In doing so, personal data may be processed by the platform providers, including outside the EU. You can find more information on the respective platforms in the specific sections of this statement and in the privacy statements of the providers.
We display Google reviews on our website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
