§ 6 Links to Third-Party Content
Our website will, on occasion, include links to third-party content. In order for the content of these third-party providers to be fully displayed on your browser, these third-party providers have to send the said content to your IP address. As such, the third-party providers require your IP address in order to allow for the display of the content. We make every effort to include links only to content whose respective providers use the IP address exclusively for the delivery of the content. However, we have no influence on whether the third-party providers store the IP address for statistical purposes, for example. To the extent that we become aware of this, we will inform you accordingly.

Security is of utmost importance when capturing online payments. Therefore, we collaborate with one of the leading Payment Service Providers in Europe, Sage Pay. Details of your transaction are encrypted with a 128-Bit-SSL-Certificate to provide best protection. Sage Pay’s servers are secured by 256-Bit-Encryption standards.

Additional information can be found on Sage Pay’s website.
