Processing is always purpose-specific and limited to the necessary extent.

Server log files are stored for security reasons for a maximum of seven days and are then automatically deleted.

Cookies and Consent Management
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that contain certain information.
We use a consent management system to manage your consent for the use of cookies and external services.
We distinguish between:
- technically necessary cookies
- optional cookies and external services
Technically necessary cookies are required for the operation and basic functions of the website. Processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
Analysis or marketing cookies as well as external services are only activated after your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
You can change or revoke your consent at any time via the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer of our website.

Our website may integrate the Google Maps map service to display our location.

Google Maps is only loaded after you have given your consent via our cookie consent tool.
When using Google Maps, your IP address may be transmitted to Google. Personal data may also be transferred to the USA.

Social Media Presence
We maintain online presences on social networks in order to provide information about our company and our services and to communicate with customers and interested parties.
There is joint controllership between us and the platform operators within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR. Where providers offer agreements on joint controllership (for example LinkedIn Joint Controller Addendum or Meta Page Insights Controller Addendum), these form the basis of cooperation.
When you visit our social media pages, personal data is processed by the respective platform operators. We have no full influence on the type, scope and purpose of data processing by these providers.
The use of our social media presence is based on our legitimate interest in modern corporate communication in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If you are asked by the platform operators to provide consent, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR is the legal basis.

Service providers who process personal data on our behalf are contractually obliged as processors in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR to comply with applicable data protection regulations.
