We collect, store or process data only for the purpose of carrying out our own business purposes. Under no circumstances will we rent or sell your data or make it available to other unauthorised third parties.

We comply with the principles of data avoidance and data economy.

This enables the Internet pages and servers visited to distinguish the individual Internet browser of the person concerned from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified by means of the unique cookie ID.
