This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called cookies, text files which are stored on your computer and which allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie concerning your use of this website is generally passed on to a Google server in the USA and saved there. Your IP address on this website is anonymized. Your IP address is abbreviated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatories to the agreement regarding the European Economic Area. In the event that anonymous use of IP should be activated on this website, your IP address is first abbreviated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatories to the agreement regarding the European Economic Area.

18. Data security

We maintain a wide variety of security measures pursuant to Art. 32 GDPR (technical and organizational measures) for the protection of your personal data.

 

For a secure transfer of the data you send to us, we offer SSL/TLS encryption with the current TLS v1.1. and TLS v1.2 encryption protocols on our website.

We therefore recommend that you keep your Internet browser up to date so that TLS v1.1. or TLS v1.2 encryption is automatically established when you visit our website.

If you contact us by e-mail, we would like to point out that the confidentiality of the information transferred is not guaranteed. The content of e-mails may be viewed by third parties.
