For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this page uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser address bar changes from „http://“ http://„ to “https://”https://“ and the lock symbol appears in your browser line. When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

You have the right, within the framework of applicable legal regulations, at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to rectification or deletion of this data.

– If the processing of your personal data has taken place/takes place unlawfully, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
– If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.

If a corresponding consent has been requested (e.g., a consent to the storage of cookies), the processing will take place solely on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; the consent is revocable at any time. Where other cookies (e.g., cookies for analyzing your browsing behavior) are stored, they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.
