1. Legal Basis and Principles
We process personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable German data protection laws. We collect and use personal data as necessary to provide our website, respond to inquiries, and ensure security and functionality.
Legal bases:
– Article 6(1)(b) GDPR for performance of a contract or steps prior to a contract (e.g., handling inquiries)
– Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for our legitimate interests in maintaining a stable, secure website and improving functionality (e.g., IT security, user experience)
– Article 6(1)(a) GDPR if you have given explicit consent (e.g., for analytics cookies)
2. Data Collection and Use
Website Visits:
Our hosting provider, Squarespace, automatically collects technical data (e.g., IP address, browser type, pages visited) to ensure stable operation and security. For details on how long this data is stored, please refer to Squarespace’s privacy policy.
Cookies:
We use necessary cookies for secure functioning. Analytics and performance cookies are activated only with your consent via our cookie banner. To learn more, see Squarespace’s cookies at [provide direct link]. You may withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings or using our cookie management tool if available.
Contact Form:
If you contact us via our contact form, we process your name, email, and message to respond to your inquiry. Best practice for data retention is to keep such correspondence only as long as needed to handle your request and for a reasonable period thereafter (e.g., 6 months) to follow up if necessary. After this period, data will be deleted unless legal obligations require longer storage.
4. Data Sharing and International Transfers
We share personal data with Squarespace as our hosting provider. Squarespace may store data outside the EEA. In such cases, we implement safeguards (e.g., EU Standard Contractual Clauses). For more information or a copy of these clauses, contact us at the email above.
5. Data Retention
Personal data is retained only as long as necessary for the purposes described or as required by law. Once it is no longer needed, it is deleted or anonymized.
6. Data Security
We use technical and organizational measures (e.g., HTTPS encryption, access controls) to protect data against unauthorized access and loss. No internet transmission is entirely secure, but we strive to safeguard your data.
7. Your Rights
You have the right to:
– Access, rectify, or erase your personal data
– Restrict or object to processing
– Request data portability
– Withdraw consent at any time (e.g., by adjusting cookie settings or contacting us)
To exercise these rights, contact us at the email listed above. You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, such as the “Landesbeauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit Nordrhein-Westfalen” (LDI NRW).
8. Updates to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The most current version will be posted on this page with the date of the latest update.
