Server Log Files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are: browser type and version, operating system used, referrer URL, hostname of the accessing computer, time of the server request, and IP address. This data is not merged with other data sources.

Contact and Quote Forms

If you send us inquiries via the contact form or quote form, your details from the form including the contact data you provided will be stored for the purpose of processing the request and in case of follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent. The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, insofar as your request is related to the performance of a contract or necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.
