2. General information on data processing

I take the protection of your personal data very seriously. Personal data will only be processed to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and for communication purposes. I treat your data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this declaration.

3 Collection and storage of personal data when using this website

When you visit this website, the web server automatically stores the following information

   IP address (shortened if possible)

   Date and time of the enquiry

   Page/file accessed

   Volume of data transferred

   Browser type and version

   Operating system used

   Referrer URL (the previously visited page)

This data is used exclusively for the technical guarantee of operation and is not passed on to third parties. It will not be merged with other data sources.

4. Contact by e-mail or form

If you write to me by e-mail or via a contact form, your details (name, e-mail address, message) will be stored for the purpose of processing your enquiry. I will not pass on this data without your consent.

5. Cookies

My website may use so-called ‘cookies’. These are small text files that are stored on your end device and do not contain viruses. They are used to optimise the display or for anonymised analysis. You can deactivate or delete cookies in your browser at any time.

6. Integration of third-party services (e.g. social media, web fonts, galleries)

a) Instagram / Pinterest / external links
If you access external links to Instagram or Pinterest via my website, their privacy policies apply. I do not collect any data via these links myself.

b) Google Fonts (locally integrated or CDN)
This website may use Google Fonts for the standardised display of fonts. If these are integrated via Google servers, information (e.g. IP address) is transmitted to Google. Alternatively, local integration is possible (recommended for GDPR compliance).

c) Embedded content (e.g. YouTube, Vimeo, Art-Portfolio)
Such content behaves as if the visitor is visiting the respective page directly. Data may be collected by third-party providers - please refer to the privacy policy of the platform in question.

7 Your rights as a user:

You have the right to:

   Information about the data stored by me

   Correction of incorrect data

   Deletion of your data, provided there is no legal obligation to retain it

   Restriction of processing

   Objection to the processing

   Data portability (on request in a structured format)

   Complaint to a data protection supervisory authority

8. Duration of storage

I only store personal data (in case of a contact from your side) for as long as it is necessary for the respective processing purposes or until you request its deletion, provided that there are no statutory retention obligations.

9. SSL or TLS encryption

This website uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser begins with ‘https://’.

10. Changes to this privacy policy

I reserve the right to amend this privacy policy from time to time in order to comply with current legal requirements.
