Personal data (hereinafter mostly referred to as \u201cdata\u201d) is processed by us only to the extent necessary and for the purpose of providing a functional and user-friendly website, including its contents and the services offered there.<\/p>\n
According to Art. 4 No. 1 of Regulation (EU) 2016\/679, i.e., the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as \u201cGDPR\u201d), \u201cprocessing\u201d means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.<\/p>\n
In the following Privacy Policy, we provide information in particular about the nature, scope, purpose, duration, and legal basis of the processing of personal data, insofar as we determine the purposes and means of processing either alone or jointly with others. In addition, Section 25 of the German Telecommunications-Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG) applies to the use of cookies and comparable technologies on users\u2019 end devices. Furthermore, we provide information below about third-party components that we use for optimization purposes and to improve the quality of use, insofar as third parties process data under their own responsibility. <\/p>\n
Our privacy policy is structured as follows:<\/p>\n

With regard to the data processing described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The supervisory authority responsible for us is:<\/p>\n
The State Commissioner for Data Protection of Lower Saxony <\/p>\n In addition, the controller is obliged to inform all recipients to whom it discloses data of any such corrections, deletions, or restrictions placed on processing the same per Art. 16, 17 Para. 1, 18 GDPR. However, this obligation does not apply if such notification is impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Nevertheless, users have a right to information about these recipients. <\/p>\n Likewise, under Art. 21 GDPR, users and data subjects have the right to object to the controller’s future processing of their data pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purpose of direct advertising is permissible. <\/strong><\/p>\n Your data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for its storage ceases to apply, provided the deletion of the same is not in breach of any statutory storage obligations or unless otherwise stipulated below.<\/p>\n To obtain consent for the use of technically non-essential cookies and comparable technologies on the website, the provider uses a cookie manager. Technically non-essential services (e.g. Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Google Fonts, Google Tag Manager, Google reCAPTCHA, Adobe Typekit) are only loaded after you have actively given your consent; the legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25(1) TTDSG. <\/p>\n When accessing the website, a cookie with the settings information is stored on the user’s device so that the query regarding consent does not have to be made on subsequent visits.<\/p>\n The cookie is necessary to obtain legally compliant consent from the user.<\/p>\n The user can prevent or terminate the installation of cookies through settings in their browser.<\/p>\n We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your end device by the internet browser you use. Through these cookies, certain information about you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, is processed to a limited extent. <\/p>\n This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure, as it enables, for example, the display of our website in different languages or the offer of a shopping cart function. <\/p>\n The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit b.) GDPR, insofar as these cookies process data for the initiation or processing of contracts.<\/p>\n If the processing does not serve the initiation or processing of contracts, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. <\/p>\n These session cookies are deleted when you close your internet browser.<\/p>\n If applicable, cookies from partner companies with whom we cooperate for the purposes of advertising, analysis, or the functionalities of our website may also be used on our website. These cookies are only set after prior consent has been given via the cookie manager. <\/p>\n Please refer to the following information for details on this, particularly regarding the purposes and legal bases for processing such third-party cookies.<\/p>\n You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by setting your internet browser. You can also delete previously stored cookies at any time. However, the steps and measures required for this depend on your specific internet browser. If you have questions, please use the help function or documentation of your internet browser or contact its manufacturer or support. For so-called Flash cookies, processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings. Instead, you must change the setting of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on your specific Flash player. If you have questions, please use the help function or documentation of your Flash player or contact the manufacturer or user support. <\/p>\n However, if you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may result in not all functions of our website being fully usable.<\/p>\n Through our website, we offer you the opportunity to participate in prize draws. If you participate in one of our prize draws, the data you provide when entering will be processed without any further consent from you, solely for the purpose of conducting and administering the respective prize draw. <\/p>\n As part of administering the prize draw, we will pass your data on to the transport company commissioned to deliver the goods or to a financial services provider, insofar as such disclosure is necessary for the delivery or payment of your prize. If your data is published in the event of a win, you will be informed of this as part of the declaration of consent. <\/p>\n The legal basis for the disclosure of data is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. <\/p>\n You may withdraw your consent to the processing of your data for participation in our prize draws at any time with effect for the future in accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR. To do so, you simply need to inform us of your withdrawal of consent. <\/p>\n If you contact us via contact form or email, the data you provide will be used to process your request. Providing the data is necessary to process and respond to your inquiry – without providing it, we cannot respond to your inquiry or can only do so to a limited extent. <\/p>\n The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR. <\/p>\n Your data will be deleted if your inquiry has been conclusively answered and there are no legal retention obligations to prevent deletion, such as in the case of any subsequent contract processing. <\/p>\n We offer you the opportunity to apply to us via our website. For these digital applications, we electronically collect and process your applicant and application data for the purpose of handling the application process. <\/p>\n The legal basis for this processing is \u00a7 26 Para. 1 S. 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 Para. 1 GDPR. <\/p>\n If an employment contract is concluded after the application process, we store the data you submitted during the application in your personnel file for the purpose of the usual organizational and administrative process – of course, in compliance with further legal obligations.<\/p>\n The legal basis for this processing is also \u00a7 26 Para. 1 S. 1 BDSG in conjunction with Art. 88 Para. 1 GDPR. <\/p>\n If an application is rejected, we automatically delete the data transmitted to us two months after notification of the rejection. However, deletion does not occur if the data requires longer storage due to legal provisions, e.g., due to burden of proof obligations under the AGG, for up to four months or until the conclusion of a possible legal proceeding. <\/p>\n The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR and \u00a7 24 Para. 1 No. 2 BDSG. Our legitimate interest lies in legal defense or enforcement. <\/p>\n If you explicitly consent to longer storage of your data, e.g., for inclusion in an applicant or interested party database, the data will be further processed based on your consent. The legal basis is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. Of course, you can revoke your consent at any time according to Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR by declaration to us with effect for the future. <\/p>\n For technical reasons, particularly to ensure a secure and stable internet presence, data is transmitted by your internet browser to us or to our webspace provider. With these so-called server log files, we collect, among other things, the type and version of your internet browser, the operating system, the website from which you switched to our internet presence (referrer URL), the website(s) of our internet presence that you visit, date and time of the respective access, as well as the IP address of the internet connection from which the use of our internet presence takes place. <\/p>\n This collected data is temporarily stored, but not together with other data from you.<\/p>\n This storage takes place on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality, and security of our internet presence. <\/p>\n The data will be deleted after seven days at the latest, unless further storage is required for evidentiary purposes. Otherwise, the data is partially or completely exempt from deletion until final clarification of an incident. <\/p>\n We maintain a company presence on the Facebook platform to promote our products and services and to communicate with prospective and existing customers.<\/p>\n On this social media platform, we are jointly responsible with Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland.<\/p>\n Facebook\u2019s Data Protection Officer can be contacted via a contact form:<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/help\/contact\/540977946302970<\/a><\/p>\n We have regulated our joint responsibility in an agreement concerning our respective obligations under the GDPR. This agreement, which sets out our respective obligations, is available at the following link: <\/p>\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/legal\/terms\/page_controller_addendum<\/a><\/p>\n The legal basis for the processing of personal data carried out in this context and described below is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis, communication, marketing, and promotion of our products and services. <\/p>\n The legal basis may also be the user\u2019s consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR given to the platform operator. In accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR, the user may withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future by notifying the platform operator. <\/p>\n When our online presence on the Facebook platform is accessed, Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, as the operator of the platform in the EU, processes user data (e.g. personal information, IP address, etc.).<\/p>\n This user data is used to provide statistical information about the use of our company presence on Facebook. Meta Platforms Ireland Limited uses this data for market research and advertising purposes and to create user profiles. Based on these profiles, Meta Platforms Ireland Limited is able, for example, to provide users with interest-based advertising both within and outside Facebook. If the user is logged into their Facebook account at the time of access, Meta Platforms Ireland Limited may also link the data to the respective user account. <\/p>\n If the user contacts us via Facebook, the personal data provided by the user in this context will be used to process the inquiry. The user\u2019s data will be deleted by us once the inquiry has been fully resolved, provided that there are no statutory retention obligations, for example in connection with subsequent contractual processing, that require continued storage. <\/p>\n Meta Platforms Ireland Limited may also set cookies for the purpose of processing the data.<\/p>\n If the user does not agree with this processing, it is possible to prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting the browser settings accordingly.

This agreement, which sets out our respective obligations, is available at the following link: <\/p>\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/legal\/terms\/page_controller_addendum<\/a><\/p>\n The legal basis for the processing of personal data carried out in this context and described below is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis, communication, marketing, and promotion of our products and services. <\/p>\n The legal basis may also be the user\u2019s consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR given to the platform operator. In accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR, the user may withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future by notifying the platform operator. <\/p>\n When our online presence on the Instagram platform is accessed, Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, as the operator of the platform in the EU, processes user data (e.g. personal information, IP address, etc.).<\/p>\n This user data is used to provide statistical information about the use of our company presence on Instagram. Meta Platforms Ireland Limited uses this data for market research and advertising purposes and to create user profiles. Based on these profiles, Meta Platforms Ireland Limited is able, for example, to provide users with interest-based advertising both within and outside Instagram. If the user is logged into their Instagram account at the time of access, Meta Platforms Ireland Limited may also link the data to the respective user account. <\/p>\n If the user contacts us via Instagram, the personal data provided by the user in this context will be used to process the inquiry. The user\u2019s data will be deleted by us once the inquiry has been fully resolved, provided that there are no statutory retention obligations, for example in connection with subsequent contractual processing, that require continued storage. <\/p>\n Meta Platforms Ireland Limited may also set cookies for the purpose of processing the data.<\/p>\n If the user does not agree with this processing, it is possible to prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting the browser settings accordingly. Cookies that have already been stored can also be deleted at any time. The relevant settings depend on the browser being used. In the case of Flash cookies, processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings, but rather by adjusting the settings of the Flash Player accordingly. If the user prevents or restricts the installation of cookies, this may result in certain Facebook functions not being fully available. <\/p>\n Further information on the processing activities, how to prevent such processing, and the deletion of data processed by Instagram can be found in Instagram\u2019s Data Policy:<\/p>\n https:\/\/help.instagram.com\/519522125107875<\/a><\/p>\n It cannot be ruled out that processing by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited may also be carried out via Meta Platforms, Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We maintain an online presence on TikTok to present our company, products, and services and to communicate with customers, prospective customers, and other users.<\/p>\n The platform provider for users in the European Economic Area is:<\/p>\n TikTok Technology Limited<\/p>\n 10 Earlsfort Terrace<\/p>\n Dublin, D02 T380<\/p>\n Ireland<\/p>\n When our TikTok profile is accessed, TikTok processes users\u2019 personal data as an independent controller. This may include, in particular, the IP address, device and browser information, location data, usage and interaction data, and, where applicable, account, content, and communication data. If the user is logged into TikTok, TikTok may associate the data collected with the respective user account. We have no influence over the nature, scope, or purpose of this processing by TikTok; TikTok is solely responsible for such processing. <\/p>\n Insofar as users interact with our TikTok profile via comments, direct messages, or in any other way, we process the data provided or visible to us in this context for the purpose of handling the respective inquiry, communicating with users, and carrying out public relations and promotional activities for our company. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in presenting our company to the public and communicating with customers and prospective customers. Where the communication serves to initiate or perform a contractual relationship, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. <\/p>\n TikTok may provide us with statistical analyses regarding the use and reach of our profile and content. These analyses may include, in particular, information on views, interactions, and the composition of the audiences reached. Insofar as we are provided exclusively with aggregated, anonymized statistics, we are unable to identify individual users from this information. <\/p>\n The data processed directly by us (in particular comments and message content) will be deleted as soon as the purpose of its processing no longer applies and there are no statutory retention obligations or other legitimate grounds for further storage. As a general rule, we have no influence over the further processing and storage period of data by TikTok itself; further information on this can be found in TikTok\u2019s Privacy Policy. <\/p>\n Data Transfers to Third Countries<\/strong><\/p>\n TikTok also processes users\u2019 personal data outside the European Economic Area, including through group companies in the United States, Malaysia, and Singapore and, according to TikTok\u2019s own information, potentially also in China. For transfers to countries for which no adequacy decision by the European Commission is in place, TikTok states that it relies on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) pursuant to Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR. Unlike companies such as Google or Meta, TikTok itself is not certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. <\/p>\n We expressly point out that, in a decision issued in May 2025, the Irish Data Protection Commission imposed a fine of EUR 530 million on TikTok because, in the authority\u2019s view, TikTok was unable to sufficiently demonstrate that the Standard Contractual Clauses and supplementary measures used for the transfer of EEA user data to China ensured a level of protection essentially equivalent to that provided in the EU. A residual risk associated with access to transferred data by foreign authorities therefore cannot be ruled out. As the operator of the TikTok page, we have no influence over this processing or the safeguards implemented. <\/p>\n Further information on the processing of personal data, as well as users\u2019 rights and available privacy settings, can be found in TikTok\u2019s Privacy Policy: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/legal\/page\/eea\/privacy-policy\/de<\/a><\/p>\n Information on TikTok\u2019s international data transfers: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/legal\/page\/eea\/transferee-countries\/en<\/a><\/p>\n Data protection requests to TikTok can be submitted using the following form: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/legal\/report\/privacy<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We maintain an online presence on LinkedIn to present our company and services and to communicate with customers and prospective customers.

These cookies are used to recognize the user, allowing the user\u2019s activity on the provider\u2019s website to be tracked and the success of specific marketing measures to be evaluated. <\/p>\n The newsletters sent by the provider via \u201cEmarsys\u201d also contain technologies that enable the provider to determine in its analyses whether and when an email was opened and which links in the newsletter were clicked by the user.<\/p>\n In addition to technical data (system data and IP address), the provider stores this analytical data so that the newsletters can be optimally tailored to the user\u2019s preferences and interests. The data collected in this way is therefore used to continuously improve the quality of the newsletters. <\/p>\n d) Legal Basis<\/p>\n The legal basis for sending the newsletter and conducting the analysis is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. <\/p>\n e) Withdrawal of Consent<\/p>\n In accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR, the user may withdraw their consent to the processing of data in connection with the newsletter subscription at any time with effect for the future by notifying the provider or by using the unsubscribe link included in the newsletter. <\/p>\n In accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR, the user may withdraw their consent to the use of analytics cookies at any time with effect for the future by adjusting the settings in the cookie management tool. <\/p>\n Matomo<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n This website uses the Matomo web analytics software. <\/span>(www.matomo.org), data is collected and stored for marketing and optimization purposes. Pseudonymous user profiles are created from this data, for which cookies are used. Cookies are small text files that are stored locally in the cache of the website visitor\u2019s internet browser. Cookies enable the internet browser to be recognized. The data collected using Matomo technology (including your anonymized IP address) is transmitted to our server and stored for usage analysis purposes, which helps us optimize our website. The information generated by the cookie in the pseudonymous user profile is not used to personally identify visitors to this website and is not combined with personal data relating to the person associated with the pseudonym. You can prevent the use of cookies and thus participation in tracking by adjusting the settings of your browser software accordingly. However, in this case, you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>The legal basis for the processing of users\u2019 personal data is Art. 6(1), sentence 1(a) GDPR. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>The processing of users\u2019 personal data enables us to analyze their browsing behavior. By evaluating the data collected, we are able to compile information about the use of the individual components of the website. This helps us to continuously improve the website and its user-friendliness. Data is collected and stored only with the user\u2019s explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1), sentence 1(a) GDPR. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Cookies are stored on the user\u2019s computer and transmitted from there to our website.

California Ave., Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA, hereinafter referred to as \u201cFacebook\u201d.<\/p>\n The Facebook visitor action pixel helps us analyze user behavior on our website and promote our services on the Facebook platform. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. In accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR, the user may withdraw their consent to its use at any time with effect for the future via the settings of the consent manager (\u201cCookie Settings\u201d) on our website. <\/p>\n The visitor action pixel establishes a connection to Facebook\u2019s servers in the United States. In the process, Facebook collects the user\u2019s IP address as well as information about the user\u2019s browser. In addition, an individual pixel ID together with the user\u2019s associated website activities is stored. <\/p>\n Meta Platforms Inc. participates in the \u201cData Privacy Framework\u201d, for which the European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR: <\/p>\n https:\/\/www.dataprivacyframework.gov\/list<\/a><\/p>\n As a result of this data processing, Facebook can display personalized advertising from us to the user on Facebook or on third-party websites. Conversion measurement also enables us to analyze and evaluate user behavior after the user clicks on a Facebook advertisement and is subsequently redirected to our website in order to improve the effectiveness of our Facebook advertising. <\/p>\n In this context, we are joint controllers with Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR.<\/p>\n The joint controllers have set out their respective obligations under the GDPR in an agreement.

The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. In accordance with Art. 7(3) GDPR, the user may withdraw their consent to the use of Google Analytics at any time with effect for the future via the \u201cCookie Settings\u201d on our website. <\/p>\n Information such as the time, location, and frequency of website visits, as well as interactions with the website (e.g. click paths, advertisements viewed\/clicked, clicks on links), including the user\u2019s IP address, is transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there for a maximum of 2 months.<\/p>\n Google LLC participates in the \u201cData Privacy Framework\u201d, for which the European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR:<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.dataprivacyframework.gov\/list<\/a><\/p>\n Google also collects \u201cdemographic characteristics\u201d and may compile statistics that provide information about the age, gender, and interests of website visitors. This is carried out through the automated analysis of advertising and information from third-party providers. <\/p>\n If the user has enabled personalized advertising in their Google Account and consents to Google Analytics, Google may analyze usage behavior across devices, i.e. across all devices linked by the user to their Google Account. Google creates models for cross-device conversions; we only receive anonymous statistics in this regard and no personal data. <\/p>\n If the user wishes to disable this cross-device analysis, they can turn off the \u201cPersonalized Advertising\u201d feature in their Google Account settings at the following link:<\/p>\n https:\/\/support.google.com\/ads\/answer\/2662922?hl=de<\/a><\/p>\n We use Google Analytics with an anonymization function. As a result, the user\u2019s IP address is truncated by Google within EU Member States or other states that are party to the EEA Agreement. <\/p>\n Google uses the data collected to evaluate the user\u2019s visit to the website and to compile reports on website activity for us. The data is also used to provide additional services related to website and internet usage. Google may disclose this information to third parties where required by law or where third parties process this data on Google\u2019s behalf. <\/p>\n According to Google, the user\u2019s IP address will under no circumstances be associated with other data held by Google. Further information and options for preventing the use of data are provided by Google here: <\/p>\n https:\/\/www.google.com\/intl\/de\/policies\/privacy\/partners<\/a><\/p>\n If the user does not agree to the collection of data, they can also prevent it by installing the browser add-on for disabling Google Analytics.<\/p>\n We use Google Tag Manager to integrate various functions into our website. This product is provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, a subsidiary of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, hereinafter referred to as \u201cGoogle\u201d. <\/p>\n Google Tag Manager is used exclusively to integrate certain content into our website and to enable the management of these functions via an interface provided by Google.<\/p>\n When the website is accessed, the relevant functions are loaded from a Google server, which may also be located in the United States. In this process, the user\u2019s IP address is processed in order to provide the functions. <\/p>\n The functions used are listed exhaustively in our Privacy Policy. Any consent not granted by the user for specific functions will also be respected when Google Tag Manager is used. <\/p>\n The legal basis for the use of Tag Manager as a technical management tool is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in optimizing and ensuring the cost-effective operation of our website); non-essential services loaded via Tag Manager (e.g. Analytics, pixels) each require separate consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. <\/p>\n Google LLC also participates in the \u201cData Privacy Framework\u201d, for which the European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR:<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.dataprivacyframework.gov\/list<\/a><\/p>\n The legal basis for its use is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest lies in ensuring the security of our website and preventing spam and automated attacks. If reCAPTCHA is used on other pages, this will only occur after you have given your consent via the cookie manager (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). <\/p>\n Google provides further information at:<\/p>\n https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy<\/a><\/p>\n further information on the general handling of your user data.<\/p>\n We use Google Maps on our website to display our location and provide directions. This is a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, hereinafter referred to as \u201cGoogle\u201d. <\/p>\n If you access the Google Maps component integrated into our website, Google stores a cookie on your device via your internet browser. Your user settings and data are processed in order to display our location and provide directions. We cannot rule out the possibility that Google uses servers located in the United States for this purpose. <\/p>\n If you have given your consent to this processing, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. The legal basis may also be Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in optimizing the functionality of our website. <\/p>\n Through the connection established with Google in this way, Google can determine from which website your request was sent and to which IP address the directions are to be transmitted.<\/p>\n If you do not agree to this processing, you can prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting the relevant settings in your internet browser. Further details can be found above under the section \u201cCookies\u201d. <\/p>\n In addition, the use of Google Maps and the information obtained through Google Maps is subject to the Google Terms of Service<\/a> and the Google Maps Terms and Conditions.<\/a><\/p>\n In addition, Google provides further information at:<\/p>\n https:\/\/adssettings.google.com\/authenticated<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy<\/a><\/p>\n further information.<\/p>\n Until you give your consent, we display only a static preview screenshot with a link to Google Maps instead of the active map.

The sole legal basis is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; consent may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future. <\/p>\n To facilitate contact, the provider offers customers, among other options, the possibility of communicating via the WhatsApp messaging service.
