If you contact us by email, we process the personal data you provide, such as your name, email address, organization, message content and any additional information you choose to share.

The contact form on our website does not transmit or store any data itself. When you select “Send”, it opens a pre-filled email in your own email program, which you can review before sending it to us. Only the email you send reaches us.

We use this data to respond to your inquiry and, where applicable, to manage further communication with you. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If your inquiry relates to a contract or pre-contractual measures, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

6. Cookies, analytics and tracking

Our website does not set cookies for visitors and does not use similar technologies to store or read information on your device. We do not use web analytics, tracking or marketing tools.

Cookies are set only when an administrator logs in to manage the website. These cookies are technically necessary for that purpose and are not set for other visitors.

Should we introduce non-essential cookies or analytics in the future, we will ask for your consent beforehand where required (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, § 25 TDDDG) and update this Privacy Policy.

Where these service providers process personal data on our behalf, we conclude appropriate data processing agreements in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.
