The service provider works strictly in accordance with our instructions, which we ensure by means of strict contractual regulations, technical and organizational measures and supplementary controls. The Company works with service providers as processors.

The data protection regulations for instruction-bound order processing of personal data are complied with.

In the case of data transfers to Group companies of the Company domiciled in other countries, the Company ensures by way of guarantees that the data-importing Group company of the Company has been obligated to an appropriate level of data protection.
