Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for payment processing services). Cookies have various functions.

​

If you would like to subscribe to the newsletter offered on the website, we require your email address and information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified email address and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data will not be collected or will only be collected on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties. The processing of the data entered into the newsletter registration form is based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).
