However, please be aware that data transfer via the internet is subject to security risks and, therefore, complete protection against third-party access to transferred data cannot be ensured.

All our employees and all individuals involved in information processing are under an obligation to observe privacy and have undertaken to ensure the confidential use of personal data.

We adhere to the principles of data avoidance and data economy.
