We do not use any< of this information to draw conclusions about you. The recipient of the data is only the responsible body and possibly the processor.

Anonymous information of this kind may be statistically evaluated by us to optimize our website and the underlying technology.

Cookies

Like many other websites, we also use so-called "cookies". Cookies are small text files that are transferred from a website server to your hard drive. This automatically gives us certain data, such as IP address, browser used, operating system and your connection to the Internet.

Cookies cannot be used to launch programs or to transfer viruses to a computer. Based on the information contained in cookies, we can facilitate navigation and enable the correct display of our websites.

In no case will the data collected by us be passed on to third parties or a link with personal data will be established without your consent.

Of course, you can also view our website without cookies. Internet browsers are usually by default set to accept cookies. In most browsers, you can disable the use of cookies at any time in the browser settings. Please use the help features of your internet browser to find out how to change these settings. Please note that some features of our website may not work if you have disabled the use of cookies.

To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption techniques (such as SSL) over HTTPS.

Comments on the website Access & Use

If you want to comment on our pages, you need to provide a valid e-mail address and a name. This name can also be a fictitious alias, you do not have to provide your real name. We use your e-mail address exclusively to notify you of any reactions to your comments or by replying directly in case of questions. The email address you have provided is not visible on the web site will not be shared with third parties.

Using Script Libraries (Google Webfonts)

In order to render our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries on this website, such as: Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google web fonts are transferred to the cache of your browser to prevent multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Web fonts or prohibits access, content will be displayed in a standard font. The call of script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible - but currently also unclear whether and if so for what purposes - that operators of such libraries collect data. The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

As soon as you contact the company DIAS GmbH and send e-mail, your contact details will be used to process your request. In order to retain business correspondence within the scope of the legal obligation, e-mails are also stored. Of course, you always have the opportunity to ask us for the deletion of your data. We will follow up if data is not subject to the retention obligation (see also the section concerned rights).
