We take your privacy seriously and process personal data only to the extent necessary and in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
What personal data we collect and why
Server log files
When you visit our website, our web server automatically collects and stores certain information in so-called server log files. This includes:
– Browser type and version
– Operating system used
– Referrer URL (previously visited page)
– Host name of the accessing computer
– Time of the server request – IP address (anonymized where possible)
This data is required for technical reasons to ensure the functionality and security of the website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR – legitimate interests). The data is deleted after a maximum of 30 days, unless longer retention is required for legal reasons.
Contact inquiries
If you contact us via email or contact form, we process the information you provide (name, email address, message content, etc.) solely to handle your inquiry (Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR). We delete this data after the matter is resolved, unless statutory retention obligations apply (e.g., commercial correspondence under German law).
Cookies
Our website uses only technically necessary cookies (if any) to ensure basic functionality. No tracking or marketing cookies are used without your explicit consent.
Media / Embedded content
We do not offer public uploads or commenting on this website. If images or other media are embedded from third-party sources (rare), they may behave as if you visited the third-party site directly. Those providers may collect data (e.g., IP address). Please refer to the respective providers’ privacy policies.
Embedded Insurance Seal
Our website includes the professional liability insurance seal provided by Exali AG. When you access a page containing this seal, the graphic is loaded directly from Exali’s servers. For technical reasons, your IP address must be processed to deliver the graphic to your browser.
If you click the seal, you will leave our website and be redirected to Exali AG.

Legitimate interest: Ensuring an appealing online presentation while fulfilling mandatory legal information obligations.
Bot Protection
We use Cloudflare Turnstile, a service provided by Cloudflare, Inc. (USA), to protect our website against abusive automated access (bots). Turnstile performs a security check to determine whether a request is made by a human user or an automated system.
The following data may be processed:
- IP address
- Browser and device information
- Referrer URL
- Technical fingerprints
- Interaction signals (e.g., mouse or keyboard activity)
Purpose: Protecting the website against misuse, spam, and automated attacks. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interests).
Legitimate interest: Ensuring the security and stability of our website.
Recipient: Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. Third‑country transfer: A transfer to the United States cannot be excluded. Cloudflare relies on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).

We do not sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. Data may be shared only:

– If required by law or for legal defense
No data is transferred to countries outside the EU/EEA unless appropriate safeguards (e.g., EU Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place.
How long we retain your data
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above or as required by law (e.g., up to 10 years for certain business correspondence under German commercial law). After that, it is deleted or anonymized.
