7. Cookies and similar technologies
This website may use cookies and similar technologies that are technically necessary for the operation, security and display of the website and its forms.
Technically necessary cookies may be used to:
provide essential website functions;
maintain security;
prevent fraudulent or automated form submissions;
remember technical preferences; and
ensure that pages and forms operate correctly.
The legal basis for any associated processing of personal data is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Insofar as information is stored on or accessed from a visitor’s device, this is based on Section 25(2) TDDDG where the technology is strictly necessary to provide the website or a function expressly requested by the visitor.
We do not intentionally use advertising cookies, Meta Pixel, Google Analytics, YouTube embeds or social-media plugins on this website.
Squarespace may collect limited technical and aggregated usage information as part of operating and securing its platform.

Google in connection with reCAPTCHA;
email and IT service providers;
professional advisers where necessary;
public authorities where disclosure is required by law; and
other recipients where you have expressly requested or authorised the disclosure.
Service providers acting on our behalf are required to process personal data only in accordance with applicable data-protection law and our instructions.
9. International data transfers
Some service providers may process personal data outside Germany or the European Economic Area.
Where data is transferred to a country that does not benefit from an adequacy decision by the European Commission, the transfer will be based on an appropriate legal safeguard, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, unless another legally permitted transfer mechanism applies.
10. Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
Contact and form enquiries are generally retained until the enquiry has been resolved and for any additional period required to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
Where a communication results in a contractual or commercial relationship, relevant records may be retained for the periods required under German commercial and tax law.
Technical and security data is retained only for as long as necessary to operate and protect the website, subject to the retention periods applied by the relevant service providers.
Data may be deleted earlier where there is no continuing legal or operational reason to retain it.

12. Right to object
Where personal data is processed on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, you have the right to object to that processing on grounds relating to your particular situation.
We will then stop processing the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or unless the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
