Data Security
Thank you for your visit to our website and for your interest in our association and its offerings. Our aim is to present you with a comprehensive online-offering, and with it to guarantee the protection of your privacy. The legal foundation for this is provided by the Federal Data Protection Law (BDSG) and Tele-Media Law (TMG).

The disclosure of personal data remains largely your free choice. Personal data means, for example, your name, address, and your e-mail address. Please note that to a certain extent such data are necessary, for example, for handling your questions or requests. When you disclose personal data to us, we will use them exclusively for the purpose of handling your questions or requests. We will not sell, lend, or in any other form pass on your personal data to a third party. You may, at any time, receive information regarding your stored personal data or demand its deletion.

We work with data networks protected by firewalls; however, not every individually transferred piece of information can be encoded. For the optimal structuring of our website we will utilize certain session-identities. With the help of session-identities we can recognize many more of your related requests or questions. Session-identities are similar to so-called cookies – small data files stored on your hard drive. As opposed to cookies, session-identities erase themselves at the latest after you have closed your browser.

Naturally, you can also view our website without a session-identity. The help-function in the menu list of most browsers explains the adjustments which can be made. When you do not accept a session-identity, this can lead to a limitation of the functioning of the website offers.

Independently of this, every contact with our web-server is anonymously recorded. We subsequently use such anonymous data for statistical purposes. We reserve the right to change these indications regarding data protection in order to observe regulations for data protection.
