Cookies
The internet pages use so-called cookies in part. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and that your browser saves.
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 enable us to recognize your browser during your next visit.
You can configure your browser to inform you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or generally, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If you disable cookies, the functionality of this website may be limited.
Cookies that are necessary for the operation of electronic communication processes or for the provision of certain functions requested by you (e.g., shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of his services. As far as other cookies (e.g., cookies for analyzing your surfing behavior) are stored, these are treated separately in this privacy policy.

A simple notification by email to us is sufficient for this. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage ceases to apply (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Legal Basis
The storage of comments is based on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke your consent at any time. A simple notification by email to us is sufficient for this. The legality of the already carried out data processing operations remains unaffected by the revocation.
