Data Privacy

Basic


This privacy policy is intended to inform the users of this website about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator Vincent Guntrum.


The website operator takes your data protection very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory regulations. As new technologies and the constant further development of this website may result in changes to this data protection declaration, we recommend that you read through the data protection declaration again at regular intervals.


Definitions of the terms used (e.g. “personal data” or “processing”) can be found in Art. 4 DSGVO.


Access data


We, the website operator or page provider, collect data on accesses to the website on the basis of our legitimate interest (see Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO) and store these as “server log files” on the website server. The following data is logged in this way:


Visited website

Time at the time of access

Amount of data sent in bytes

Source/reference from which you came to the site

Browser used

Operating system used

IP address used


The server log files are stored for a maximum of 7 days and then deleted. The data is stored for security reasons, e.g. to be able to clarify cases of misuse. If data must be retained for evidentiary reasons, it is exempt from deletion until the incident has been finally clarified.


Reach measurement & cookies


This website uses cookies for pseudonymised range measurement, which are transferred to the user’s browser either by our server or by a third party server. Cookies are small files that are stored on your terminal device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website.

If you do not want cookies to be stored on your terminal device for the purpose of measuring reach, you can object to the use of these files here:

Collection and processing of personal data


The website operator only collects, uses and discloses your personal data if this is permitted by law or if you consent to the collection of such data.

Personal data is any information that can be used to identify you personally and that can be traced back to you – for example, your name, e-mail address and telephone number.


You can also visit this website without providing any personal information. However, in order to improve our online services, we store (without personal reference) your access data to this website. This access data includes, for example, the file you requested or the name of your internet provider. By anonymising the data, it is not possible to draw conclusions about your person.


Examples:

Which? – We process personal data such as first name, surname, IP address, e-mail address, place of residence, postcode and content details from the contact form.

How? – We only process personal data with the express permission of the users concerned and in compliance with the applicable data protection regulations.

Why? – Personal data is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in fulfilling our contractually agreed services and optimising our online offering.


Handling of contact data


If you contact us as the website operator using the contact options offered, your details will be stored so that they can be used to process and respond to your enquiry. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.



Handling of contact data

Dealing with comments and contributions


If you leave a contribution or comment on this website, your IP address will be stored. This is done on the basis of our legitimate interests within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO and serves the security of us as website operator: because if your comment violates applicable law, we can be prosecuted for it, which is why we have an interest in the identity of the comment or post author.


Google Analytics


This website uses the “Google Analytics” service on the basis of our legitimate interests in optimising and analysing our online offering within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO the service “Google Analytics”, which is provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). The service (Google Analytics) uses “cookies” – text files that are stored on your terminal device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.


Google LLC complies with European data protection law and is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active


IP anonymisation is used on this website. The IP address of the user is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area and in the other contracting states of the agreement. Only in individual cases is the IP address initially transmitted unabbreviated to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. This shortening eliminates the personal reference of your IP address. The user’s IP address transmitted by the browser is not combined with other data stored by Google.


Under the terms of the data protection agreement that we, as website operators, have concluded with Google Inc., the latter uses the information collected to evaluate website use and website activity and provides services related to internet use.


The data collected by Google on our behalf is used to evaluate the use of our online offer by individual users, e.g. to create reports on website activity in order to improve our online offer.


You have the option of preventing cookies from being stored on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.


Furthermore, you can use a browser plug-in to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to and used by Google Inc. The following link will take you to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.


Alternatively, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website by clicking on this link. By clicking on the link, you will download an “opt-out cookie”. Your browser must therefore allow cookies to be stored. If you delete your cookies regularly, you will need to click on the link again each time you visit this website.
