We are pleased about your interest in our company, products and/or services and want to ensure that you feel safe while visiting our internet pages with regard to the protection of your personal data which we take very seriously. Complying with the regulations of the German Federal Data Protection Law is a matter of course for us.

We would like you to know when we collect data und how we use it. We have taken technical and organisational measures that ensure that the provisions concerning data protection are complied with, both by us and by external service providers as well.

2. Personal data

Personal data is information concerning your identity. This includes for example data such as your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address. When using our website you do not have to disclose personal data. In certain cases, however, we need your name and address as well as other information so that we can provide the requested services.

The same applies for instance to the forwarding of information material and ordered goods or to the answering of individual questions. When this is required, we point this out to you accordingly. In addition, we only store and process data that you have provided us with voluntarily or automatically when you visit your internet sites (e.g. your IP address and name of the accessed pages, date and time of your access, the search engines used, names of the downloaded data files).

If you utilise our services, as a rule we only collect data that we need to provide the services. If we ask for additional information, this is voluntary information.

Personal data is only processed so that we can perform the requested service and safeguard our own legitimate business interests.

3. Intended use of your personal data

The personal data which you have provided is exclusively used for the purpose of answering your queries, processing your orders or to provide you access to certain information or offers. For the purpose of maintaining customer relations, it may additionally be necessary that the service provider appointed by us uses this personal data in order to inform you about product offers that are useful for your business activities or in order to conduct online surveys so that we are in a better position to cope with the tasks and requirements of our customers.

Obviously we respect the fact that you may not want to let us have your personal data for the purposes of supporting our customer relations (particularly for direct marketing or for market research purposes). We will not sell your personal data to third parties nor will we market it in some other way.

4. Earmarked use

We will only collect, process and use the personal data provided by you online for the purposes that we have informed you about. We will not pass on your personal data to third parties without your consent.

Our employees and the service providers appointed by us are put under an obligation by us to maintain secrecy and to adhere to the provisions contained in the Federal Data Protection Act.
