Privacy Policy

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously.

We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy. The new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is also consistently implemented.
Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g., communication by email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

For example, cookies allow us to tailor a website to your interests or store your password so you don’t have to re-enter it each time.

Of course, you can also view our websites without cookies. If you do not want us to recognize your computer, you can prevent cookies from being stored on your hard drive by selecting “do not accept cookies” in your browser settings. Please refer to your browser manufacturer’s instructions for details. However, refusing cookies may lead to functional restrictions of our services.

All our employees and all third parties involved in data processing are obliged to comply with applicable laws such as the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and to handle personal data confidentially.

In cases where personal data is collected and processed, the information is transmitted in encrypted form to prevent misuse by third parties.

In such cases, we will also adapt our privacy policy accordingly. Therefore, please refer to the current version of our privacy policy.

CO₂ Reduction

The German internet alone causes around 22 billion kilograms of CO₂ each year. A single Google search generates about 0.2 grams of CO₂.

We all want to use the internet to find information, buy products, or send birthday greetings to loved ones — and in a globalized world, families are often spread across the globe. So what do we do to minimize internet-related CO₂ emissions? Here are some examples:

We operate our own servers to ensure maximum security and data protection. Our servers are powered by green electricity.

We use modern image formats such as WebP and video formats such as WebM to reduce data size.

We use system fonts that are already available on every computer, smartphone, and tablet, so fonts do not need to be loaded.

We continuously improve our user experience so that information on our pages can be found as easily and quickly as possible — because waste of time = waste of data.
