Where our hosting provider processes personal data on our behalf, this processing is governed by a data processing agreement in accordance with Article 28 GDPR.
4. Contacting Us
You may contact us by phone, email, fax, or through our contact form.
When you contact us, we process the information you provide. This may include, in particular:
Your name, company, email address, phone number, fax number, mailing address, the content of your inquiry, and any additional information you voluntarily provide.
We process this information to respond to your inquiry and communicate with you. If your inquiry relates to entering into or performing a contract, the legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. In all other cases, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to respond efficiently to inquiries and communicate with prospective customers, customers, and business partners.
We do not use the information you provide for newsletters, advertising mailing lists, or automated marketing activities.
Your data will be deleted once your inquiry has been fully resolved, unless statutory retention requirements or legitimate interests require us to retain it for a longer period. Business correspondence and contract-related communications may be retained for the periods required under applicable commercial and tax laws.
5. Contact Form
We use a technical form solution integrated into our website. Information submitted through the contact form is processed so that we can respond to your inquiry. Depending on the technical configuration, form submissions may also be stored in our website database and viewed in the website’s administrative area.
We limit required fields to the information necessary to process your inquiry. Any additional information is provided voluntarily.
Technical security measures may be used to protect the contact form against misuse and spam. Where these measures involve the processing of personal data, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to protect our website and contact form against misuse.
We do not use Google reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, or Cloudflare Turnstile for our contact form unless expressly stated otherwise in this Privacy Policy.

We make data sheets and other information available for download as PDF files on our website.
No registration or login is required to download these files. However, when a PDF file is accessed or downloaded, the same technical access data processed during a regular visit to our website is also processed.
This processing is necessary to make the downloads technically available and ensure the security of our website. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to provide product information and operate our website securely.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website uses strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies to the extent required for the operation and functionality of the website.
Strictly necessary cookies and technologies may be used, in particular, to provide essential website functions, ensure website security, store the selected language, or manage your privacy settings.
The legal basis for the use of strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies is Section 25(2) of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG). Where personal data is processed in connection with these technologies, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to provide a functional, user-friendly, and secure website.
Additional services and external content are loaded only with your consent. Where information is stored on or accessed from your device for this purpose, this is based on your consent pursuant to Section 25(1) TDDDG. Any related processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
You may change or withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future through the Privacy Settings.
Additional information about the cookies and services used on our website is available in our Cookie Policy.
8. Consent Management
We use the Complianz consent management solution to manage your privacy settings.
Complianz allows you to consent to or decline optional services and external content and to change a previously selected preference at any time.
Strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies may be used to store your selection. This allows your privacy settings to be recognized and applied when you visit additional pages on our website.
9. Embedded YouTube Content
Our website includes an embedded video from YouTube. For users in the European Economic Area, the provider of YouTube is generally Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
The embedded video is initially blocked and is loaded only after you have consented to the “External Content” category or explicitly enabled the content. Before you provide consent, no connection to YouTube is established through the embedded video functionality.
Once you provide consent, a connection to YouTube or Google servers is established. In this process, information such as your IP address, device and browser information, and information about the content accessed may be transmitted to Google. Google may also use cookies or similar technologies and process the transmitted data for its own purposes.
The processing is based on your consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and, where information is stored on or accessed from your device, Section 25(1) TDDDG. You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future through the Privacy Settings.
When Google services are used, personal data may also be processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area.

This applies in particular to embedded YouTube content after you have provided your consent, as well as to external websites that you access through links on our website.
When Google services are used, data may be processed on servers located in various countries. Google provides information about the legal frameworks it uses for international data transfers in its privacy information.
If we use additional services in the future that involve the transfer of personal data to third countries, we will update this Privacy Policy accordingly and comply with the applicable data protection requirements.
