We have taken technical and organizational measures to ensure that the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) are met by us, as well as, by external service providers working for us.

This selection procedure will be documented in writing and an agreement on the order processing of data (data processing agreement) will only be concluded if the third party complies with the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR.
Your information will be stored on specially protected servers. Access to it is only possible for a few specially authorized persons. Our App is SSL/TLS encrypted, as can be seen by the https:// at the start of our URL.
