Personal data is information that reveals or can reveal the identity of the user. We adhere to the principle of data avoidance. As far as possible, the collection of personal data is avoided.

1.2 Handling of personal data
Personal data are used exclusively for establishing a contract, structuring the content, executing or processing the contractual relationship (Art. 6 I p. 1 b GDPR).

In addition, personal data will only be processed insofar as we have received your consent (Art. 6 I p. 1 a GDPR) or it is data whose processing is necessary for our legitimate interests and insofar as the weighing of interests shows that none oppose overriding interests, fundamental rights or fundamental freedoms on your part (Art. 6 I p. 1 f GDPR).

We can use contract processors to process your personal data, but we will generally not pass the personal data on to third parties.

Your personal data will only be processed within the EU, unless otherwise stated below.
