Our services are intended for business customers, including companies, self-employed professionals, freelancers and start-ups. However, contact persons and website visitors may still be natural persons whose personal data is protected by applicable data protection laws.

4. Contact forms and quote requests
If you submit a contact form or request a quote, we process the information you provide in order to respond to your request, prepare an offer, discuss your project and communicate with you.
The legal basis may be the preparation or performance of a contract, our legitimate interest in responding to business enquiries, or your consent where required by applicable law.
Please do not send sensitive personal data through the contact forms unless it is necessary for your request.
To protect our forms against spam and automated abuse we use hCaptcha (provider: Intuition Machines, Inc., USA). The legal basis is our legitimate interest in preventing abuse (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Technical data such as your IP address may be transmitted to hCaptcha; a transfer to the USA is possible (see section 10).

When you visit the website, technical data may be processed automatically to deliver the website, maintain security, prevent abuse and ensure technical stability.

Storing information on, or accessing information already stored in, your device only takes place with your consent (§ 25(1) TDDDG), unless it is strictly necessary (§ 25(2) TDDDG). The legal basis for the subsequent processing of optional cookies is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
