We wish to point out that the transfer of data via the Internet (e.g. when communicating via e-mail) may involve security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to completely protect data against third-party access.

Google Maps API

This website uses Google Maps ("Google Maps"), a web mapping service of Google, Inc. ("Google"). In order to display the accessed maps to you, your IP address is collected by Google and, if applicable, forwarded by Google to servers in the USA where it is saved. Google also collects data concerning your use of Google Maps. We do not have access to your data and also cannot verify it. You can find Google's data protection guideline here: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/

If you do not agree to the collection of your data relating to the use of Google Maps by Google, you can block the collection of data by completely deactivating the Google Maps service. To do so, you must deactivate JavaScript in your browser settings. Please note that you will not be able to use Google Maps in this case.

SSL encryption

For reasons of security and to safeguard the transfer of confidential content such as the content of the requests you send to us as the site operator, we use SSL encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that "http://" switches to "https://" in the browser's address bar and a lock icon appears there. If SSL encryption is activated, the data, which you send to us, cannot be read by third parties.

Right to information, deletion, blocking

You have the right, at any time and at no charge, to receive information concerning your personal data that is saved, its origin and recipient(s), the purpose of data processing as well as right to the correction, blocking or deletion of said data.
