These include, for example, browser type and version, operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited site), IP address of the requesting computer, access date and time, and the file request of the client (file name and URL). These data are collected solely for statistical analysis purposes. They are not shared with third parties for commercial or non-commercial purposes.

We secure your personal data provided to us through all technical and organizational security measures in such a way that it is inaccessible to unauthorized third parties. For the transmission of very sensitive data or information, we recommend using postal services, as complete data security cannot be guaranteed via email.
