5 Legal basis for processing
The collection of the IP address in the server log files, as well as the collection of the full IP address in the event of unauthorized login attempts to the administration backend, is based on the legal provisions of GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) (legitimate interest).
The legitimate interest here is to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the data and information provided on this website (e.g., to investigate abusive actions).
If you are our customer, we process your personal data because this is necessary to fulfill the contract concluded with you (Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR).
For the purpose of marketing activities, we will only process your personal data with your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR).

7 Contacting us
If you contact us (e.g. by email, telephone or via the contact form), the data you provide will be stored by us for six months for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in case of any follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
8 Access data and log files
Our hosting provider automatically records your IP address when you visit our website. This is stored in so-called server log files along with other information (browser type, operating system used, referrer URL, time and date, etc.).
This data is not merged with other data sources and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about specific individuals.
We reserve the right to review the server log files retrospectively if we suspect unlawful use of our website.
9 Third-party content and services
Our website may also include content, features and services from other providers (third-party providers). In order for this data to be displayed in the browser, it is necessary to transmit the IP address to the respective provider.
We endeavour to select only providers who use the IP address solely for the delivery of content, but we have no influence over whether it may be stored.
Should we become aware that the IP address is also being stored, we will indicate this separately.
10 Google Fonts
Our website uses external fonts from Google Inc. (‘Google Fonts’). In doing so, the IP address of your device is collected and stored by Google. Google therefore also becomes aware of which pages on our website you have visited.
Further information can be found in Google’s privacy policy, which you can access here:
Google’s privacy policy
11 Retention period
The duration of storage is determined by the consents you have given, as well as by the statutory retention obligations and legal obligations applicable to us.
We are committed to retaining personal data in accordance with the principles of the GDPR only for as long as is necessary for the original purpose or as required by the statutory retention obligations and legal obligations applicable to us. If the purpose of the collected information no longer applies or the retention period expires, we will delete or block the data.
The data collected in the server log files is deleted after 30 days.
The full IP addresses recorded during login attempts to the administration backend are stored for 30 days.
12 Recipients of data
Insofar as this is strictly necessary for the purposes of data processing, we will transfer parts of your personal data to the following recipients:
- Cooperation partners (hosting providers, etc.)
- Service providers used by us (agencies, etc.)
- Administrative authorities, courts and public bodies
- Other recipients specified by the customer
All data processors have undertaken to comply with the applicable data protection standards.
13 Matomo
This website uses Matomo, an open-source software for analysing visitor behaviour. Data processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving our website in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Users’ IP addresses are anonymised immediately after collection, thereby ruling out any personal identification. No cookies are used. All information regarding the use of the website is stored exclusively on our own server and is not passed on to third parties.
You have the option to prevent the actions you take here from being analysed and linked. This will protect your privacy, but will also prevent the owner from learning from your actions and improving the user experience for you and other users.
Your visit to this website is currently being tracked by Matomo web analytics. Uncheck this box to opt out.
14 Security measures
We have implemented organisational and technical safeguards, which we continuously evaluate and adjust as necessary, to protect your personal data stored and processed by us.
