We at MODUS Consult respect the data protection laws of each individual.

It is our intent to protect the quality and integrity of your personal data. MODUS Consult uses technical and organizational security measures to protect the data provided to us against manipulation by chance or planned action, destruction, loss or access by unauthorized persons.

To avoid the misuse of data by third parties, we employ the so-called 'Secure Socket Layer' transmission during online registration, also known as SSL. All data transmitted through this secure method (name, address, e-mail address, etc.) is being encrypted before it is sent to us. This means that the characters entered by you are being converted to a code during encryption. This code is then securely transmitted through the internet. All other forms are, by default, being transmitted unencrypted. If you do not wish to make use of the encrypted transmission via internet, you can, of course, also send us your requests by mail or fax.

All of our employees and the service providers that work on our behalf are bound by the Federal Protection Act and the trustworthy handling of personal data. Our security measures are subject to constant revisions in accordance with new technological developments. 

This privacy statement does not extend to the external links provided on our internet pages. If we offer links on our pages, we try to guarantee that the web pages behind those links adhere to data protection and security standards. We, however, have no influence over the adherence to data protection and security regulations by other providers. This is why you should please read the privacy statements on the internet pages of other providers as well.

Due to the development of our web pages and the implementation of new technologies, changes in this privacy statement may prove necessary. We reserve the right to change our security and data protection measures if the technological development makes such an action necessary. In those cases, we will also revise our notes about data protection. Thus, we recommend you periodically review this privacy statement.

Your trust is important to us. That is why, at any time, we like to be able to answer your questions regarding the processing of your personal data. If you have questions that were not answered by this privacy statement or if you wish to receive more profound information about a certain item in this statement, please contact our data protection official at your convenience: contact-at-modusconsult.de
