We've taken sufficient technical and organizational measures to guarantee a safe processing of your personal data. These measures are consistent with the nature of the personal data and proportional to the potential severity of the risk.

The risks of an accidental or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration of or access to, and any other unauthorized processing of the data are reduced to a minimum. Sadly though, no risk can be completely removed. In case of breach of our IT-system, we will immediately take all possible measures to limit the damages and/or thefts to a minimum.
