In addition to the previously mentioned data, cookies are stored on your computer when you use our website. Cookies are small text files that are saved on your hard drive and associated with the browser you use. They allow the entity that sets the cookie to receive certain information.
Our website uses so-called session cookies. These cookies store a session ID, which allows different requests from your browser to be associated with the same session. This enables your computer to be recognized when you return to our website. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser. You can configure your browser settings according to your preferences, such as rejecting all cookies. Please note that in this case, you may not be able to use all features of this website.

Some of the services listed below may also use their own (third-party) cookies. The legal basis for these cookies follows the legal basis for the described data processing there.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Our website does not integrate cookies from social media platforms (e.g., via plug-ins). Instead, the buttons found on our site merely link to the respective social media service's website (e.g., LinkedIn and X). These buttons do not collect or transfer data to these services on their own. Data collection and transfer occur only when you click on a button, which will then redirect you to the respective provider's page. Our privacy policy applies exclusively to our website and not to external sites (including LinkedIn and X) that we link to. LinkedIn and X process your data according to their own privacy policy.

When you contact us via email or contact form, the data you provide (your email address, and if applicable, your name, telephone number, and the content of your message) will be stored by us to respond to your inquiries.

There is no general adequacy decision by the European Commission for the USA, which certifies an adequate level of data protection.
