You decide which of your data is publicly visible on kierfchen.lu and whether you grant access to your trees or orchard. You don’t have to provide an exact location. You can publish your ad completely anonymously. Interested parties can then contact you via a contact form. As a result, you’ll see the email address of the interested party and can get in touch with them.
No. kierfchen.lu is not a sales platform, but rather a way to connect fruit tree owners, consumers, producers, animal keepers, and all other interested parties.
To create a user account, you must provide:
- Name
- First name
- E-mail address
When posting a listing, you only need to enter a Luxembourg postal code and town so that
your listing can be placed on the interactive map. You decide for yourself which details,
such as your name, exact address, phone number, or email should be visible when your listing
is published. Alternatively, you can choose to publish your ad completely anonymously.
If someone contacts you through an anonymous ad via the contact form, your username
and email address will be shared with them so you can respond. For more details on data
protection and liability, please refer to the Legal Notices on the website.
