We are entitled to collect, process and pass on personal data of users to third parties in compliance with the data protection regulations.

4. Security, cookies and other important information
Security
We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via website, your information is protected both online and offline. Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as billing data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by a lock icon in the address bar and looking for “https” at the beginning of the web page. While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (e.g. billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information.
Data locations
The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment. We use the highly secured data centres of Hetzner Online GmbH. The servers are based in Germany, so that your personal data will be hosted and processed by us in Germany. The data is transferred between the browser and the server via SSL.
