Prefer your own mail client? support@lotse.cloud — German or English. Security reports go to security@lotse.cloud; please read security.txt first.
Thank you — the message is in.
It lands in a real inbox and a person answers it. Please allow a few working days; LOTSE is built by one person, and an honest wait beats an automated acknowledgement.
Nothing was sent to anyone else, and no copy is kept once it has been delivered.
What happens to what you type
The form sends exactly the six fields above — nothing else. Your IP address is not recorded, no cookie is set, and there is no third party involved: the page loads from one server and talks to that same server.
The message waits in a small database on that server only until it has been moved into the mailbox, then it is deleted there. Details are on the privacy page.
Why the short pause when you press send
Your browser solves a small puzzle before the message goes out. It costs a second or two and it costs an automated sender far more, which is what keeps this form usable without a CAPTCHA — a CAPTCHA would mean loading code from another company onto a page that promises it contacts nobody.
If JavaScript is off, the form cannot do that. The address above works exactly as well.
