7.1.2 Use of cookies

We use cookies on our website. These are small files that your browser automatically creates and that are stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website. Cookies do no harm to your device and contain no viruses, Trojans or other malware.

The cookie stores information that arises in connection with the specific device used. However, this does not mean that we thereby gain direct knowledge of your identity.

The use of cookies serves, on the one hand, to make the use of our offer more pleasant for you. We use so-called session cookies to recognise that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted after you leave our site.

In addition, we also use temporary cookies to optimise user-friendliness, which are stored on your device for a certain defined period. If you visit our site again to use our services, it is automatically recognised that you have already been with us and which entries and settings you have made, so that you do not have to enter them again.

The data processed by cookies is necessary for the stated purposes to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties under Art. 6(1)(1)(f) GDPR.

7.1.3 Contact form

For questions of any kind, we offer you the option of contacting us via a form provided on the website.

This website uses the Google Maps API to display geographic information visually. When using Google Maps, Google also collects, processes and uses data about visitors' use of the map functions.

The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offerings and easy findability of the locations we indicate on the website.
