General Information on Data Processing: As a general rule, we process the personal data of users of this website only to the extent necessary to provide a fully functional website and to deliver our content and services. Legal Basis: Processing is based on Article 6(1)(a) (consent), (b) (performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures), and (f) (legitimate interests) of the GDPR.

Hosting by Squarespace This website is hosted by Squarespace, Inc., USA. In this context, Squarespace processes server log files such as IP address, browser type, operating system, referrer URL, and access time. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in ensuring the secure and stable operation of the website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Data processing by Squarespace is based on the EU Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, which serve as an appropriate safeguard for data transfers to the United States.

The processing of data entered into the contact form is based on a legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or for the purpose of taking steps prior to entering into a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), provided that the inquiry is aimed at concluding a contract.

Cookies This website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help us make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Some cookies are technically necessary, as certain website features would not work without them.

Multilingual Support via Weglot This website uses the Weglot service (Weglot SAS, France) to provide content in multiple languages (German, English). Weglot may set cookies and process your selected language setting as well as technical data (e.g., IP address, browser settings) in order to display the website to you in the appropriate language. The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in maintaining a multilingual, internationally accessible website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or your consent, insofar as cookies are involved.
