The use and payment of all offered services is - as far as technically possible and reasonable - also permitted without providing such data or by providing anonymized data or a pseudonym.

We expressly reserve the right to take legal action against the senders of so-called spam mails in the event of violations of this prohibition.
Our website uses Matomo (formerly Piwik), which is a so-called web analysis service. Matomo uses so-called "cookies", which are text files that are stored on your computer and enable us to analyze the use of the website. For this purpose, the usage information generated by the cookie (including your shortened IP address) is transmitted to our server and stored for usage analysis purposes, which serves to optimize our website. Your IP address is immediately anonymized during this process so that you as a user remain anonymous to us. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is not passed on to third parties. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

4. Server data
For technical reasons, your Internet browser automatically transmits data to our web server when you access our website, which is recorded in so-called server log files. This data includes the date and time of access, URL of the referring website, file accessed, amount of data sent, browser type and version, operating system and your IP address. This data is stored separately from other data that you enter when using our website. It is not possible for us to assign this data to a specific person. This data is evaluated for statistical purposes in order to optimize our website and our offers.

If a contractual relationship between you and us is to be established, developed or amended, we collect and use your personal data insofar as this is necessary for these purposes.
On the instructions of the competent authorities, we may provide information about this data (inventory data) in individual cases, insofar as this is necessary for the purposes of criminal prosecution, to avert danger, to fulfill the statutory duties of the constitutional protection authorities or the Military Counter-Intelligence Service or to enforce intellectual property rights.
6. References and links
In the case of direct or indirect references to external websites ("hyperlinks") that lie outside the author's area of responsibility, a liability obligation would only come into force in the event that the author is aware of the content and it would be technically possible and reasonable for him to prevent use in the event of illegal content. The author hereby expressly declares that no illegal content was recognizable on the linked pages at the time the links were created. The author has no influence whatsoever on the current and future design, content or authorship of the linked pages. The author therefore expressly distances himself from all contents of all linked pages that were changed after the link was created. This statement applies to all links and references set within the author's own website as well as to third-party entries in guest books, discussion forums, link directories, mailing lists and all other forms of databases set up by the author to whose content external write access is possible. Liability for illegal, incorrect or incomplete content and in particular for damages resulting from the use or non-use of such information lies solely with the provider of the page to which reference is made, not with the person who merely refers to the respective publication via links.
7. Copyright and trademark law
The author endeavors to observe the copyrights of the graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts used in all publications, to use graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts created by himself or to use license-free graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts. All brands and trademarks mentioned on the website and possibly protected by third parties are subject without restriction to the provisions of the applicable trademark law and the ownership rights of the respective registered owners. The mere mention of a trademark does not imply that it is not protected by third-party rights! The copyright for published objects created by the author himself remains solely with the author of the pages. Reproduction or use of such graphics, audio documents, video sequences and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without the express consent of the author.
8. Contact possibility
