Privacy Policy

We are very delighted about you visit to our website www.a-staiger.de and your interest in our enterprise. Protection of your personal data is important to us. Personal data is information about personal or factual circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes data such as the real name, address, phone number and date of birth, but also any other data that can be attributed to an identifiable person.
Since personal data is protected under special legislation, we only collect it to the extent necessary for the functioning of our website and the provisioning of our services. In the following, we describe the personal information we collect during your visit to our website and how we use it.
Our data protection practices are fully compliant with applicable statutory regulations, particularly with the provisions of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), the German Telemedia Act (TMG) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We will only collect, process and store your personal data to the extent necessary for the functionality of this website, for providing our content and services, as well as for processing inquiries and, if necessary, for processing orders / contracts.

Only if you have separately consented will your data also be used for additional purposes specified at the time of giving such consent, e.g., for sending advertisements by way of a newsletter.
