Note: In order to protect your data as comprehensively as possible from unwanted access, we take so-called technical and organisational measures and use an encryption process on our website. Your data is transmitted over the Internet from your computer to our computer and vice versa using what is known as TLS encryption. TLS stands for “Transport Layer Security” and is an encryption protocol for data transmission on the internet. You can usually recognise “TLS” by the fact that the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser is closed and the address begins with https://.
