Some of our web pages use cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain any viruses. Cookies help make our
website more user-friendly, efficient, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved
by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies
remain in your device’s memory until you delete them. These cookies make it possible to recognize your browser when you next visit
the site.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to
accept or reject a cookie. Alternatively, your browser can be configured to automatically accept cookies under certain conditions
or to always reject them, or to automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality
of this website.

Cookies which are necessary to allow electronic communications or to provide certain functions you wish to use (such as the
shopping cart) are stored pursuant to Art. 6 paragraph 1, letter f of DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the
storage of cookies to ensure an optimized service provided free of technical errors. If other cookies (such as those used to

Google reCAPTCHA

We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on our websites. This service is provided by
Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).

reCAPTCHA is used to check whether the data entered on our website (such as on a contact form) has been entered by a human or
by an automated program. To do this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics.
This analysis starts automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates
various information (e.g. IP address, how long the visitor has been on the website, or mouse movements made by the user).
The data collected during the analysis will be forwarded to Google.

The reCAPTCHA analyses take place completely in the background. Website visitors are not advised that such an analysis is taking
place.

Data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its site from
abusive automated crawling and spam.

Google Web Fonts

For uniform representation of fonts, this page uses web fonts provided by Google. When you open a page, your browser loads the
required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.

For this purpose your browser has to establish a direct connection to Google servers. Google thus becomes aware that our web page
was accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web fonts is done in the interest of a uniform and attractive presentation
of our website. This constitutes a justified interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font is used by your computer.
