Data protection information
Welcome to our website, we are delighted at your interest in our company. To reassure you during your visit as regards the treatment of your personal data by our company, we would like to take this opportunity to explain what happens to the accumulated data and clarify the security measures implemented on our part. We would also like to advise you of your legally established rights in connection with the processing of this data.
Personal details
During your visit to our Internet pages, the only information recorded is the name of your Internet service provider and the web pages that you access. This information is evaluated by us for purely statistical purposes (e.g. the number of times an individual web page is accessed). As an Internet user you remain anonymous during your visit. Generally, no personal details are collected by us when you use our website. Such details are only collected when you provide us with this information, for example, within the scope of an order (annual report, image brochure, technical information, etc.). Currently, this information is transferred in unencrypted form. For this reason, the possibility of the respective data being read by unauthorised third parties during transfer cannot be ruled out. You may, however, use alternative communication methods (e.g. letter post or fax) that offer greater security than transfer via the Internet.
