The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your request). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular, statutory storage periods – remain unaffected.

The newsletter subscription process follows a so-called double opt-in procedure, i.e., after registration, you will receive an email in which you are asked to confirm your subscription. This confirmation is necessary to prevent anyone from using others’ email addresses to register.
You can revoke your consent to the storage of personal data at any time by clicking an unsubscribe link at the end of an email sent via the newsletter backend system.
