Services requiring registration - newsletters / supply of information

Should you wish to use the (personalised) offers and services offered on this website, we require further information for the provision of these services. They include in particular your name, your email address as well as other information (address, telephone number and the like), which will allow us, for instance, to verify that you are the owner of the given email address or that its owner consents to receiving the respective services in order to be able to provide the services that you requested.

 

The entry of a valid email address is necessary to ensure that abusive registrations – such as for newsletters – can be avoided. We therefore use the so-called “Double-Opt-In-procedure“; after entering your email address on our websites, you receive a so-called confirmation-email to reconfirm your registration. By clicking on the respective link, you are requested to verify your email address.
