1. Data protection at a glance
General information
The protection of your personal data is of major importance to us. We therefore strictly comply with Germany's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the processing of the personal data of our contractual partners. Personal data includes items of information about the personal or material circumstances of a natural person (data subject). For example, your surname, first name, address details, ordering data, or the contents of your emails. Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR provides our company with a legal basis for processing operations in which we obtain consent to perform a specific processing purpose.
If the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a contract whose contractual party is the data subject, as is the case, for example, in processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, processing shall be executed pursuant to Article 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR. This also includes the sale of cargo. Should you not agree with this, we kindly remind you of your right to object, pursuant to Article 21 of the GDPR. At the beginning of a contractual relationship, we store data so that it can undergo further internal processing in our systems. Detailed information on the subject of data protection can be found in our privacy policy below.

Cookies
This website uses cookies in some areas. Cookies do not damage your computer in any way and do not contain viruses. They help us make our services more user-friendly, more effective, and more secure. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer and then stored by your browser.
Most of the ones that we use are session cookies. They are deleted automatically after your visit ends. Other cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies allows us to recognise your browser the next time you visit the website.
You can configure your browser in such a way that it informs you about the placement of cookies, only allows cookies on a case-by-case basis, excludes them entirely or under certain circumstances, and deletes them automatically upon closing the browser. Disabling cookies may result in the website's functionality being restricted.
Cookies that are essential to the execution of electronic communications processes or to the provision of certain functions that you wish to use (such as a shopping cart) are stored on the basis of Article 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR. The operator of this website has a legitimate interest in the storing of cookies in order to provide optimised and error-free services. The storage of other cookies (such as those used in the analysis of your browsing history) will be addressed separately in this privacy policy.
Server log files
The operator of this website automatically collects and stores information in the server's log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These include:
- browser type/version
- operating system used
- referrer URL
- host name of the accessing computer

We will retain the information you provide in the contact form until you request us to delete it, withdraw your consent, or the purpose of the data storage is no longer pursued (for example, after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal requirements, retention periods in particular, remain unaffected.
