This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content such as, for example, orders or requests, which you send to us as the site operator. You can identify an encrypted connection in that the browser address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Sending us an informal notification by email is sufficient to do so.
The lawfulness of the data processing operations completed up to the withdrawal of consent remains unaffected by this withdrawal. The data entered by you in the contact form remains with us until you request us to delete it, withdraw your consent to store it or there is no purpose for storing the data (e.g. after the handling of your request has been completed).
