The requested information allows us to address your request comprehensively. The data you provide in this context is supplied expressly on a voluntary basis.
The personal data provided to us in your above-mentioned entries, as well as the time of the contact, are used exclusively for the purpose for which you made them available to us when making contact – in particular the processing of your request. The information given by you will be used
exclusively to process your request. The data is not used for other purposes or passed on to third parties without your express consent.

The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is that we need your details to process or respond to your message.
The contents of our pages have been compiled with great care. Nevertheless, we accept no liability for the accuracy, completeness, or current validity of the content. According to § 7 Para. 1 TMG, as a service provider we are responsible for our own content on this website per general legislation. According to §§ 8 to 10 TMG, however, as a service provider we are not obliged to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information or to look for indications of illegal activity. Obligations to remove or block the use of information in accordance with general legislation remain unaffected. However, any corresponding liability only exists from such point in time as we become aware of a specific legal violation. Should any such legal violation come to our attention, we will remove the offending content immediately.
Our website contains links to external websites of third parties, over whose content we have no control. Therefore, we cannot accept any responsibility for this external content. Individual providers or operators of the linked sites are always responsible for the content of the sites. Linked websites were checked for any illegal content when the links were created. Illegal content was not apparent at the time the links were created. Continuous monitoring of the content of linked pages is not, however, reasonable without specific indications of legal violations. Should any legal violation come to our attention, we will remove such links immediately.
We secure our website and other systems using suitable technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction, access, modification, or distribution of your data by unauthorized persons. However, despite regular checks, complete protection against all risks is not possible.
Our website uses industry-standard SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption. By doing so, the confidentiality of your personal data over the internet is safeguarded. You can see whether an encrypted transfer is taking place by means of the locked key and padlock symbol in the display of your web browser.
We disclose your personal data to third parties only,
– if you have given your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 a) GDPR;
– if the disclosure is required to fulfill contractual obligations pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 b) GDPR;
– if we are legally obliged to disclose the data as per Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 c) GDPR;
– if the disclosure of the data is in the public interest as per Art. 6 Para. 1 e) GDPR;
if the disclosure of data in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 f) GDPR is required to preserve our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party, if not outweighed by your privacy interests.

An objection to the processing of personal data concerning you, based on Article 6 Para. 1 e) (data processing in the public interest) or f) (data processing to safeguard legitimate interests based on a balance of interests) is possible at any time pursuant to Article 21 GDPR. In the event of an objection, the personal data is no longer processed, unless compelling reasons for the processing that merit protection outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the person concerned or the processing is used to file, exercise or defend against legal claims.
Please direct your objection to the e-mail address info@knuth.com
If you have given us consent to process personal data, you may withdraw this consent from us at any time. This obviously also applies to us with respect to prior statements of consent issued before May 25, 2018 (before the GDPR went into effect).
