Last Update: 18 December 2018
We use personal data to operate this website and to offer and advertise our services. Different types of data are collected and processed, depending on how you use our online services.
One type of data concerns information that you actively provide, for example, via a contact form or e-mail.
Other data are automatically collected as soon as you visit our website. In this case, the data mainly concern technical data such as your IP address or the web browser you use.
In addition, we evaluate how visitors navigate our website. These data are collected for statistical analysis and are never used to observe or identify individuals. The information gathered helps us to optimise our web presence and to improve your online experience.
We have adopted technical and strategic measures to protect your data from being misused when you visit our website and use its related functions and services. The security measures include the encryption of data transmitted from your browser to the server (https) as well as a secure e-mail connection (SSL/TLS). We recommend that you also activate SSL/TLS in your personal e-mail application.
Please note that security risks associated with transmitting data in the internet can never be completely eliminated.
Data you send, for example, via a contact form, are used solely for the stated purpose and never passed on to third parties without your consent.
When you send us this data, you give us your consent to retain and process your data until you either retract your consent or until the data are no longer relevant to the original purpose, provided that no legal obligation to retain information rules out deleting the data.
Data on accessing server
We collect data (log files) about every visit to the server that hosts our website. These log files contain: the URL of the webpage visited; the file; the date and time of the visit; the status code of the request; the amount of data transmitted; browser type and version; your operating system; the referrer URL (previously visited page); your IP address; your requesting provider.
The log files ensure better functionality and security, and they allow us to optimise the website. Such data are periodically deleted. As a rule, the protocol data are used for statistical analysis only. If there are grounds to suspect illegal use of the data (e.g. hacking), we reserve the right to review the protocols in detail. If it is necessary to retain data as evidence, these data are exempted from the periodical deletions until the incident has been resolved.
Like most websites, we also use “cookies”. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer. So-called session cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Other cookies are stored for a pre-defined time or are stored permanently, allowing a website to recognise your browser when you next visit the site.
We use cookies to enable certain functions and to ensure that your visit to our site runs smoothly. We also use cookies to understand how visitors use our website. Detailed information about the use of cookies is available in the relevant sections below, including information on how you can block cookies.
Information on how to control the use of cookies for marketing purposes, in particular with regard to tracking, is available on the following websites: the US website www.aboutads.info/choices or the EU website www.youronlinechoices.com.
You can block or delete cookies at any time by adjusting your browser settings. This can, however, block certain functions of our website.
Subscriptions to our newsletter are registered via a double opt-in process. After signing up for the newsletter on our website, you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. The confirmation is required to verify that it was you who subscribed to the newsletter. This procedure is logged as proof of your subscription.
You can cancel your subscription at any time via the link at the end of every newsletter. The personal data linked to the newsletter subscription are deleted upon cancellation.
When you open a newsletter, a link to the server is created via a small embedded graphic. This enables collection of technical data such as your browser and operating system versions, your IP address and the time of access. These data reveal whether the newsletter was opened, when it was opened and which links were clicked. Technically, this information could be linked to an individual user. We, however, have no interest in observing individual users. We analyse anonymised data to learn about reading behaviours and optimise our newsletter.
We maintain an online presence on social networks and platforms to communicate with current and potential clients who are active in these media and to inform them about our activities. When these social media networks and platforms are accessed, the general terms and conditions as well as the data processing policies of the provider apply.
The social media buttons on our website – for example, “share” and “like”– are embedded using Shariff technology, which allows a link to a social network to be established only when a user actively clicks a button.
If you are logged in to an external service when you visit our website, it is possible that your personal data are open to additional data processing procedures over which we have no control. For more information, please refer to the social media provider in question.

Our website is linked to Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC. Google processes data on our behalf, sends us reports on website activity and provides other services that enable us to evaluate and improve our online services. Anonymised user profiles can be created on the basis of the data processed.
Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Framework and guarantees that it observes European data protection law.
We use Google Analytics with IP anonymisation. This feature shortens the IP address of Google users within the member states of the European Union and in countries with contractual agreements within the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the US and shortened there. The IP address will not be linked to other Google data.
To prevent us from collecting your data via Google Analytics, you can either deactivate cookies in your browser or install the following plugin: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
The following webpages provide additional information on how Google uses data as well as on setting preferences and ways to opt out:
