If we provide a contact option through an input screen on our website, streaming-platform or support-portal, this communication is encrypted through use of the https protocol. Please note that the confidentiality of other communications on the Internet, in particular via email is not guaranteed, and we therefore recommend not transmitting confidential data and information by email.
