Each time a website is accessed, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file containing, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of the request, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the access. This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring smooth operation of the site and improving our services. This serves our legitimate interests, which prevail in the context of a balancing of interests, in the correct presentation of our services in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the site and is only processed for as long as necessary to achieve the above-mentioned processing purposes.
