Deletion of Data and Storage Periods

Unless otherwise stated, we will delete your data as soon as it is no longer needed, e.g. your e-mail address after the client relationship ends and you do not wish to be contacted again. Your data will also be deleted or anonymized automatically if the mandatory storage period expires, except when such data is required to be stored for a contract or performance of contract. Such data may be needed for longer periods of time for legal reasons. You can – as described above – request information about all personal data we have stored about you at any time.

If you merely wish to browse our website, we do not collect any personal data, with the exception of the data that your browser sends to us, e.g.:
