We are pleased with your interest in our homepage and our academy.

When visiting our homepage, the protection of your privacy is very important to us. Your personal information is protected in compliance with the regulations established by German laws. Below, we explain which personal information is obtained during your visit to our homepage and how these data are used.

Any visit to our website and any request for a file located on our server are logged, i.e. every access to a web page, an image etc. are automatically recorded in what is called a log-file.

This is done for internal and statistical purposes, but also in order to be able to detect attacks by Spam-Bots and other malicious software. This information provides us with the means to fight the attacks and to prosecute their authors.

The following data are logged: the name of the requested file, date and time of the request, transferred amount of data, browser used and requesting domain. In addition, your IP address is logged.

The log-files are deleted after one year.

In order to optimize our website, i.e. to learn which pages are of special interest to our visitors, we take part in the Google-Analytics Program. With any page request, your IP address is transmitted to Google Analytics, with server systems in the United States. The Google privacy statement >> apply to these data. If you do not agree, please switch off javascript on your browser.

During your visit to our website, a temporary session cookie is set, which contains a PHP Session ID. You may refuse this cookie through your browser settings. This cookie is not used to obtain user profiles and is automatically deleted when you leave the site.

The only additional personal information retained is that which  you provide us voluntarily, i.e. for an inquiry, request or reservation.  

Use of your personal data and sharing with third parties

We will only use the personal data you may have provided us to answer your inquiry, request or reservation, to process contracts with you and for technical administration.

Your personal information will only be shared with third parties, if this is necessary for processing our contracts with you, i.e. for sharing order data with suppliers, for billing or accounting purposes or when you gave your approval in advance.

You have the right to withdraw your approval, taking effect in the future, at any time.

We will share personal information with government institutions or law enforcement agencies (only) as far as European or German laws require this.

Your personal information is deleted, when you withdraw your approval, when the knowledge of the personal information is no longer necessary for the purpose they where obtained for, or when the storage of that personal information is forbidden by law.

We will be glad to provide you with this policy in writing, at your request.
