General

This website is a portfolio without user accounts, contact forms, newsletters or an online shop. It does not use cookies or any analytics or tracking tools, and it does not embed content from third parties (such as social media plugins, maps or videos). Personal data is processed only to the extent described below.

Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany. Data is processed in data centres within the European Union.

When you visit the website, information transmitted by your browser is recorded automatically (server log files): IP address, date and time of access, the page or file requested, referrer URL, browser type and version, operating system and the amount of data transferred.

This data is technically necessary to deliver the website and to ensure its security and stability. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; the legitimate interest lies in the secure and error-free operation of the website. The data is not combined with other data sources and is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for these purposes.

Encryption

For security reasons, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by “https://” in your browser’s address bar.

Fonts

The font used on this website is loaded directly from this server. No connection is made to external font providers (such as Google Fonts).

Local storage in your browser

If you switch between the light and dark colour scheme, your choice is saved in your browser’s local storage (localStorage) so that it is kept for your next visit. This information remains on your device, is not transmitted to the server or to third parties, and serves solely to display the website as you requested (Section 25(2) No. 2 TDDDG). You can delete it at any time in your browser settings.

Contact by email or phone

If you get in touch by email or phone, the information you provide (e.g. name, contact details and the content of your enquiry) is processed in order to deal with your request. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where the enquiry relates to a contract or pre-contractual measures, and otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to enquiries). The data is deleted once it is no longer required, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

You have the right to access the data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR), to rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20), and the right to object to processing based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (Art. 21).
