You can generally use our website without providing any personal data. However, if you wish to make use of our company’s services through our website, the processing of personal data may become necessary. Should the processing of personal data be required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will always obtain the consent of the individual concerned.
The processing of personal data (e.g., name, address, email address, or phone number) is always carried out in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to us.

Data Security
During your visit to our website, we use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser. Typically, this involves 2048-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 2048-bit encryption, we fall back to 256-bit or 128-bit v3 technology. You can identify whether a single page on our website is transmitted in encrypted form by the closed lock icon in your browser’s status bar.
Please note that the reference to 2048-bit encryption pertains to the SSL/TLS certificate’s key length, while 256-bit and 128-bit refer to the symmetric encryption of data transmissions.
Additionally, we employ appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction, or unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously optimized in line with technological developments.
