2. Website Access and Server Log Files

When you access the website, the web server processes technically required connection data. This may include, in particular, the IP address, date and time of access, the page or file requested, the volume of data transferred, referrer URL, browser type, operating system and access status.

The processing serves to provide the website securely and without disruption, to analyse errors and to protect against misuse and attacks. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the secure and functional operation of the website.

The data is processed by the hosting provider acting as a processor. Log data is deleted once it is no longer required for the purposes stated. Longer retention only takes place where necessary to investigate a specific security incident or comply with legal obligations.

3. Contacting Us

When you contact us by email or telephone, we process the data you provide in order to respond to your enquiry and, where applicable, coordinate further steps.

Where the enquiry relates to a potential or existing engagement, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Other business enquiries are processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in handling and documenting business communications.

The information is deleted once the enquiry has been fully resolved and no statutory retention obligations or legitimate reasons for further storage apply. The service providers used for email and telecommunications transmission may receive the data in the course of providing their services.
