5. Recipients and transfers outside the EU
Your data is disclosed only to the processors named above (hosting, email) and, where we are legally obliged to do so, to tax advisers or public authorities. Under the EU Data Boundary, Microsoft generally processes email data within the EU. However, a transfer to Microsoft Corporation in the United States – for example in connection with support or security services – cannot be ruled out. Such transfers are covered by the European Commission’s adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (Article 45 GDPR), under which Microsoft is certified, and additionally by the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (Article 46(2)(c) GDPR). Beyond this, data is not transferred to countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area.

This website does not set cookies and does not access information on your device beyond what is technically necessary to display the website (Section 25 of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act, TDDDG). A small script simply assembles the displayed email address in your browser to protect it from spam; no data is stored or transmitted in the process.
