Purpose of Collecting and Processing Personal Data
In general, we use the personal data voluntarily provided by you to answer your inquiries, process your registration, provide you with access to certain information or to enable targeted electronic communication or processing of official procedures or other business relationships with the municipality (e.g. for submitting citizen notifications, applications). For these purposes, it is necessary for us (or a third party acting on our behalf) to process and store your personal data.

In Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority.
The municipality provides a range of online forms on its homepage for convenient electronic application within the scope of official procedures, ordering of municipal services, registration for municipality services, and for other concerns to the municipality.
