  • professional advisers, such as legal or tax advisers, where required
  • public authorities, courts or other official bodies where disclosure is legally required

Service providers acting as processors are contractually bound to process personal data only in accordance with our instructions and applicable data protection law.

10. International Data Transfers

The website and email services covered by this Privacy Policy are hosted in Germany.

We do not currently intentionally transfer personal data collected through this website to countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area.

A transfer may take place if you independently choose to use an external service linked from this website, such as LinkedIn. Such processing is governed by the privacy policy of the respective provider.
