On our website we use services of Elfsight LLC (address: Elfsight, LLC, Paronyana str., 19/3, 201, Yerevan, Armenia) in order to display dynamic content such as Google reviews, social media feeds or other widgets and thereby make our website more attractive.
In order to display these widgets it is technically necessary for your IP address, browser information and other metadata to be transmitted to Elfsight's servers. In this process, personal data is transferred to third countries outside the European Union (EU), such as Armenia. There is no adequacy decision of the EU Commission for these third countries.
The data processing and the transfer to a third country take place exclusively on the basis of your express and informed consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, which you have given via our consent management tool.

You can withdraw the consent you have given at any time via our consent management tool and thus deactivate the display of the Elfsight widgets.
