The consultants are subject to the duty of confidentiality pursuant to Section 203 of the Criminal Code in a special way and/or the duty of secrecy pursuant to Section 4 of the Mediation Act. Strict confidentiality is fundamental to the work of the staff unit.

The duty of confidentiality does not only apply to the contents of the consultation, it also applies to the fact that consultation was sought at all. It applies to superiors and colleagues as well as to the service units of KIT and also to relatives.

Only if the explicit permission of the person seeking advice is given, other relevant persons or offices can be involved.

The staff unit only becomes active upon request of persons seeking advice, i.e. employees, superiors, work groups or employee representatives.

The protection of your privacy is very important to us. This is not guaranteed with unencrypted communication by e-mail. Therefore, KMB communicates confidential contents by e-mail only encrypted with the KIT certificate. We strongly recommend that you also use encryption if you want to contact us by e-mail.

We are not allowed to reply to unencrypted e-mails within the scope of our legal duty of confidentiality. Therefore, if you wish to make an appointment, please contact us by telephone, stating your availability. We will contact you as soon as possible.
