In addition to the purely informational use of our website, we offer various services that you may use if you are interested. To do so, you will generally need to provide additional personal data, which we use to provide the respective service and to which the aforementioned data processing principles apply. In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. These providers have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions, and are regularly monitored.

To the extent that we base the processing of your personal data on a balancing of interests, you may object to such processing. This is the case, in particular, when the processing is not necessary for the performance of a contract with you, as we will explain in the following description of each function. If you exercise such an objection, we ask that you explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data in the manner described. In the event of your justified objection, we will review the situation and either cease or adjust the data processing, or explain to you our compelling legitimate grounds on which we continue the processing.
