Personal data (hereinafter mostly referred to as "data") will only be processed by me to the extent necessary and for the purpose of providing a functional and user-friendly website, including its content and the services offered there.
Per Art. 4 No. 1 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, i.e. the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as the „GDPR“), „processing“ refers to any operation or set of operations such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation, alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, or otherwise making available, alignment, or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction performed on personal data, whether by automated means or not.
The following privacy policy is intended to inform you in particular about the type, scope, purpose, duration, and legal basis for the processing of such data either under my own control or in conjunction with others. I also inform you below about the third-party components I use to optimize my website and improve the user experience which may result in said third parties also processing data they collect and control.
My privacy policy includes the following:

II. Rights of users and data subjects
With regard to the data processing to be described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right
-
to confirmation of whether data concerning them is being processed, information about the data being processed, further information about the nature of the data processing, and copies of the data (cf. also Art. 15 GDPR);
-
to correct or complete incorrect or incomplete data (cf. also Art. 16 GDPR);
-
to the immediate deletion of data concerning them (cf. also Art. 17 DSGVO), or, alternatively, if further processing is necessary as stipulated in Art. 17 Para. 3 GDPR, to restrict said processing per Art. 18 GDPR;
-
to receive copies of the data concerning them and/or provided by them and to have the same transmitted to other providers/controllers (cf. also Art. 20 GDPR);
-
to file complaints with the supervisory authority if they believe that data concerning them is being processed by the controller in breach of data protection provisions (see also Art. 77 GDPR).
In addition, the controller is obliged to inform all recipients to whom it discloses data of any such corrections, deletions, or restrictions placed on processing the same per Art. 16, 17 Para. 1, 18 GDPR. However, this obligation does not apply if such notification is impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Nevertheless, users have a right to information about these recipients. Likewise, under Art. 21 GDPR, users and data subjects have the right to object to the controller’s future processing of their data pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purpose of direct advertising is permissible.
III. Information about the data processing
Your data processed when using my website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for its storage ceases to apply, provided the deletion of the same is not in breach of any statutory storage obligations or unless otherwise stipulated below.
Cookies
a) Session cookies
I use cookies on my website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies stored on your computer by your browser. These cookies process certain specific information about you, such as your browser, location data, or IP address.
This processing makes my website more user-friendly, efficient, and secure, allowing me, for example, to display my website in different languages or to offer a shopping cart function.
The legal basis for such processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies are used to collect data to initiate or process contractual relationships.
If the processing does not serve to initiate or process a contract, my legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of my website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
When you close your browser, these session cookies are deleted.
b) Third-party cookies
If necessary, my website may also use cookies from companies with whom I cooperate for the purpose of advertising, analyzing, or improving the features of my website.
Please refer to the following information for details, in particular for the legal basis and purpose of such third-party collection and processing of data collected through cookies.
c) Disabling cookies
You can refuse the use of cookies by changing the settings on your browser. Likewise, you can use the browser to delete cookies that have already been stored. However, the steps and measures required vary, depending on the browser you use. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your browser or contact its maker for support. Browser settings cannot prevent so-called flash cookies from being set. Instead, you will need to change the setting of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your Flash player or contact its maker for support.
If you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, not all of the functions on my site may be fully usable.
Contact
If you contact me via email or the contact form, the data you provide will be used for the purpose of processing your request. I must have this data in order to process and answer your inquiry; otherwise I will not be able to answer it in full or at all.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted once I have fully answered your inquiry and there is no further legal obligation to store your data, such as if an order or contract resulted therefrom.
Server data
For technical reasons, the following data sent by your internet browser to me or to my server provider will be collected, especially to ensure a secure and stable website: These server log files record the type and version of your browser, operating system, the website from which you came (referrer URL), the webpages on my site visited, the date and time of your visit, as well as the IP address from which you visited my site.
The data thus collected will be temporarily stored, but not in association with any other of your data.
The basis for this storage is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. My legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality, and security of my website.
The data will be deleted within no more than seven days, unless continued storage is required for evidentiary purposes. In which case, all or part of the data will be excluded from deletion until the investigation of the relevant incident is finally resolved.
Order processing
The data you submit when ordering my services will have to be processed in order to fulfill your order. Please note that orders cannot be processed without providing this data.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
After your order has been completed, your personal data will be deleted, but only after the retention periods required by tax and commercial law.
In order to process your order, I will share your data with the company responsible for delivery to the extent required to deliver your order and/or the payment service provider to the extent required to process your payment.
The legal basis for the transfer of this data is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
I maintain an online presence on LinkedIn to present my services and to communicate with customers/prospects. LinkedIn is a service of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Irland, a subsidiary of LinkedIn Corporation, 1000 W. Maude Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, USA.
I would like to point out that this might cause user data to be processed outside the European Union, particularly in the United States. This may increase risks for users that, for example, may make subsequent access to the user data more difficult. I also do not have access to this user data. Access is only available to LinkedIn.
The LinkedIn privacy policy can be found here:

General linking to third-party profiles
The provider includes a link on the website to the social media listed below.
The legal basis for this is Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest of the provider is to improve the quality of use of the website.
The plugins are integrated via a linked graphic. The user is only forwarded to the service of the respective social media by clicking on the corresponding graphic.
After the customer has been forwarded, information about the user is recorded by the respective social media. This is initially data such as IP address, date, time and page visited. If the user is logged into his/her user account of the respective social media at the same time, the social media operator can, if required, assign the information collected from the user’s specific visit to the user’s personal account. If the user interacts via a “Share” button of the respective social media, this information can be stored in the user’s personal user account and, if required, be published. If the user wants to prevent the collected information from being directly assigned to his/her user account, the user must log out before clicking on the graphic. It is also possible to configure the respective user account accordingly.
The following social media are linked by the provider:
LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Irland, a subsidiary of LinkedIn Corporation, 1000 W. Maude Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94085 USA.

Google Analytics
I use Google Analytics on my website, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, a subsidiary of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”.
Google Analytics helps me analyse website usage and measure the effectiveness of my marketing campaigns. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The user can revoke consent to the use of Google Analytics in accordance with Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR at any time for the future via the “Cookie Settings” on my website.
Information such as time, location and frequency of website visits as well as interactions with the website (e.g. click paths, ads seen/clicked, clicks on links) including the user’s IP address are transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there for a maximum of 2 months.
Google LLC is part of the “Data Privacy Framework”, for which the EU Commission has issued an adequacy decision in accordance with Art. 45 GDPR:
https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/list
Google also records “demographic characteristics” and can create statistics that allow statements to be made about the age, gender and interests of site visitors. This is done through the automated analysis of advertising and information from third parties.
If the user has activated personalised ads in their Google account and agrees to Google Analytics, Google can analyse usage behaviour across devices – that is, across all devices that the user has linked to their Google account. Google creates models for cross-device conversions; only anonymous statistics are sent to us, no personal data.
If the user wishes to deactivate this cross-device analysis, he or she can deactivate the “Personalised Advertising” function in the settings of his or her Google account using the following link:
https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=de
I use Google Analytics with an anonymisation function. As a result, Google will shorten the user’s IP address within the EU member states or in other contracting states to the EEA Agreement.
Google uses the data collected to evaluate the user’s visit to the website and to compile reports on website activities for me. The data are also used to provide other services related to website and internet usage. Google may transfer this information to third parties where required by law, or where such third parties process the data on Google’s behalf.
According to Google, under no circumstances will the user’s IP address be linked to other Google data. Google offers further information and options for preventing data usage here:
https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners
If the user does not agree to the collection, he or she can also prevent it by installing the browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics.
WIX
a) Use of the Wix Shop Software
The provider uses the “WIX” shop system from Wix.com Ltd., Namal 40, 6350671 Tel Aviv, Israel, to display the offers, to process the contract and for hosting.
The legal basis for this is the initiation of a contract and/or the execution of the contract in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.
Due to the international branches of WIX, it cannot be ruled out that processing will also take place outside the EU. WIX has to ensure that the processing by Wix and its subcontractors only takes place in third countries in which processing is permitted under the GDPR, for example by means of an EU adequacy decision or so-called standard contractual clauses.
“WIX” processes the following user data on behalf of the provider:
Name, email address, delivery and billing address, payment data, company name, telephone number if applicable, IP address, information about orders, as well as information about the device and browser used.
b) Web analysis WIX
Through the use of WIX, cookies for web analysis are also used on the website. Information such as time, place and frequency of the website visit of the user is transmitted to a WIX server and evaluated via the cookies.
In case you have granted your consent to this processing the legal basis is Article 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The legal basis can also be Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest consists in the analysis, optimization and the economic operation of the website.
If the user does not agree to the storage of the cookie, it is possible to prevent or terminate the installation of the cookie by setting the browser accordingly.
