We use Google Fonts on our website, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited with its registered office at Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Fonts allows us to integrate various web fonts on our website.
When you call up our website, the required font is loaded into the browser cache by your web browser. This is necessary so that your browser can display a visually improved representation of our texts.

Among other things, the following personal data is collected by Google Fonts:
- Your IP address
- the page you are visiting
- Your preferred language setting
- technical information (information about browser, Internet provider, terminal device, screen and window resolution, and operating system)
Google Fonts are used in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in conjunction with. § 25 para. 1 TTDSG (legitimate interest). Our legitimate interest is based on the use of a common font that can be easily reproduced in the systems of many users and thus make our homepage more attractive and customer-friendly.

Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your computer. They are used to make the website as a whole more user-friendly and effective.
There are different variants of cookies, the scope and functionality of which we would now like to explain:
There are the so-called temporary or transient cookies, which are automatically deleted when you close the browser. These include, among others, the session cookies. These store a so-called session ID, with which various requests of your browser can be assigned to a common session. This allows your computer to be recognized when you return to our website. The session cookies are deleted when you log out or close your web browser.
Furthermore, there are the permanent or persistent cookies, which initially remain stored after closing the browser, but are automatically deleted after a specified duration. The duration differs depending on the cookie, whereby we would like to point out that you can delete the cookies at any time using the security settings of your web browser.
