1. Access data and hosting

This access data is evaluated solely for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the website and improving our services. This serves our legitimate interests, which outweigh any conflicting interests, in the correct presentation of our services in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. All access data is processed only as long as necessary to achieve the aforementioned processing purposes.
