Language & region
IONOS supplies an approximate connection country on each page load. English is the fallback; Germany uses German. On direct language links we ask before switching. Your language choice takes priority. Our language feature stores neither IP addresses nor countries and never requests precise location. Coarse country matching serves our legitimate interest in offering a suitable language (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). You can choose a language yourself at any time. Matching takes place on our IONOS server using a local DB-IP country database. Your IP address is not sent to DB-IP.
Connection country unavailable; default language: English.
