2. Visiting the website
When this website is accessed, the hosting provider may process technically necessary connection data, such as the IP address, time of access and files requested. This processing serves the secure and stable operation of the website and is based on legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
3. Cookies and similar technologies
This website does not use cookies for analytics, marketing or tracking purposes. No third-party services are integrated that would set cookies or similar technologies on your device. Consent under § 25 TDDDG (German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act) is therefore not required for the operation of this website.
If you use the “Larger text” switch, this setting is stored locally in your browser (local storage) so that it is kept for your next visit. No data is transmitted to us or to third parties. The storage takes place solely at your request and is strictly necessary for the function you have expressly requested (§ 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG). You can remove the setting at any time by clicking the switch again or by deleting your browser data.
4. Fonts
The fonts used on this website are hosted locally. No connection is made to Google Fonts or similar external font services to display the fonts.
5. Contact form
The data entered in the contact form is used solely to process the respective enquiry and is sent by email to the responsible mailbox. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if the enquiry is aimed at entering into a contract, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The maths question in the form serves solely to protect against automated spam and is not evaluated.
6. Contact by phone, email or WhatsApp
If you contact us by email, phone or WhatsApp, your details are processed to handle your enquiry and any follow-up questions. The legal basis depends on the reason for contacting us and the relevant provisions of the GDPR. When contacting us via WhatsApp, the privacy policy of WhatsApp Ireland Limited also applies.
7. External links
This website contains links to external services that open in a new window when clicked. These are simple links; no content from these services is embedded in the website, and no data is transmitted automatically to the respective providers before you click. As soon as you follow a link, the privacy policy of the respective provider applies:
- Google Maps – Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland
- Instagram – Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland
- WhatsApp – WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland
8. Storage period
Personal data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was processed, unless statutory retention obligations apply.
9. Your rights
Subject to the legal requirements, you have the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and – where the requirements are met – the right to object to certain processing. Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw it at any time with effect for the future. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, such as the Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information.
10. Updates
This privacy policy is updated as necessary to reflect changes in the technical functions of the website and the specific data processing.
