No other storage or processing takes place.

The extent we use our contact form to request information that is not required to establish contact, we have always marked it as optional.

If this involves information on communication channels (e.g. e-mail address, phone number), you also agree that we may contact you via this communication channel in order to respond to your request.

INTEGRATION OF THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND CONTENT (YOUTUBE, RSS ETC.)

We may include third-party content, such as YouTube videos and RSS feeds. This always requires that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third party providers”) log your IP address, as they cannot send the content to your browser without the IP address. The IP address is therefore required for the display of this content. We endeavor to use only the content whose respective providers use the IP address only for delivering the content. We have no influence, however, on whether the third-party providers store the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes, and inform you according to our level of knowledge.
