CONFIDENTIAL ORIENTATION
When criminal risks affect personal responsibility, organizational stability, or economic substance, early assessment is critical.
In a confidential initial consultation, we evaluate your situation, assess potential risks, and discuss the most appropriate next steps. You will receive a realistic assessment – even if no investigative measures have yet been initiated.
Discretion, clarity, and strategic guidance are at the core of this process.
Data Protection
Here you will find detailed information on the data processing in connection with the technologies we use and the cookies used for them in each case. You can also individualize or revoke your consent.
Data Processing
We use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as: “Google”), to measure and analyze the use of our website, to compile reports on website activity, and to conduct, measure, and optimize target-group-oriented advertising campaigns.
For this purpose, Google uses the following cookies requiring consent, which are stored on and read from your computer:
| Provider | Name | Purpose | Storage period |

| Google Ireland Ltd. | _ga_<Property-ID> | Maintaining the session status | 2 years |
For the aforementioned purposes, the following categories of personal data are processed by Google:
On the basis of this information, pseudonymous usage profiles are created using the IDs generated by Google. Google uses the information on our behalf to analyze the use of our website, to compile reports on website activity, and to measure and optimize the success of our advertising campaigns. For this purpose, Google shows us which advertising measure or traffic source (e.g. a search query) led to a conversion (e.g. a contact inquiry). Google also uses the aforementioned information to specifically present advertisements placed on our behalf via the linked Google advertising service “Google Ads” to those users who have already shown interest in our website.
The legal basis for setting and reading the Google Analytics cookies as well as the further processing of the aforementioned data is the consent you have given via the consent banner (Section 25(1) TDDDG, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Without your consent, no data is collected and no elements are loaded from Google. In addition, the consent also applies to Google itself, since under the Digital Markets Act (DMA) Google is obliged to obtain consent so that Google Analytics can be used in conjunction with other Google services (in our case the advertising service “Google Ads”). For this purpose, we share the status of the consent given by users via our consent banner with Google through the so-called Google Consent Mode, so that Google can control the use of its services in accordance with the consent granted or refused. In this way, Google is able, for example, to ensure that the consent status of our users can be appropriately taken into account when using Google Analytics and the linked Google service “Google Ads”.
The recipient of the collected data is Google Ireland Limited, which processes it on our behalf. In addition, it is possible that Google Ireland is supported in this by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, as a subcontractor. Any transfer of data to Google LLC takes place on the basis of an adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR): Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
The processed data is deleted by Google after 14 months. Further information on the storage period of the cookies used by Google can be found in the consent banner.
You can revoke your consent to the data processing and the setting or reading of cookies at any time via the consent banner. You can access the consent banner by clicking on “Manage Consent” in the footer of the website.
