Privacy policy

This is a translation. The German version is legally binding.

Controller

The controller within the meaning of data protection law, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is:

In short

This website is a purely static site. It does not set cookies, does not use analytics or tracking services and does not load content from third parties (no external fonts, no embedded content). Personal data is only processed for hosting (server log files) and when you send me an email.

Hosting and server log files

Type and purpose of processing

This website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages, provided by Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA (“Cloudflare”). When you access this website, general information is collected automatically. This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your internet service provider, your IP address and similar.

It is processed in particular for the following purposes:

• ensuring a smooth connection to the website,
• ensuring smooth use of the website,
• evaluating system security and stability (e.g. defending against attacks).

I do not use this data to draw conclusions about you as a person.

Legal basis and legitimate interest

Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR and my legitimate interest in a secure, stable and functional website.

Recipients

The recipient of the data is Cloudflare, acting as a processor for the operation of this website.

Transfer to third countries

Data may be transferred to the USA. Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which is covered by an adequacy decision of the European Commission (Art. 45 GDPR). In addition, Cloudflare has concluded standard contractual clauses. More information can be found in Cloudflare’s privacy policy.

Storage period

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. I do not analyze any log files myself. How long Cloudflare stores log data is governed by Cloudflare’s privacy policy.

Whether provision is required

Providing the personal data mentioned above is neither required by law nor by contract. Without the IP address, however, this website cannot be delivered and its functionality cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, objection is not possible.

Contact by email

If you send me an email, I process your email address and the information in your message in order to answer your request. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in answering requests) or Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR if your request is aimed at a contract.

Emails to addresses at janpoth.de are forwarded via Cloudflare Email Routing to my mailbox at [[E-MAIL-ANBIETER]].

I delete your message once your request has been dealt with, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

Cookies and tracking

This website does not set cookies and does not use analytics or tracking services.

SSL/TLS encryption

To protect your data during transmission, I use state-of-the-art encryption via HTTPS.

Your rights

Using the contact details above, you can exercise the following rights at any time:

• access to your data stored by me and how it is processed (Art. 15 GDPR),
• rectification of inaccurate personal data (Art. 16 GDPR),
• erasure of your data stored by me (Art. 17 GDPR),
• restriction of processing where I may not yet delete your data due to legal obligations (Art. 18 GDPR),
• objection to the processing of your data (Art. 21 GDPR) and
• data portability, if you have consented to the processing or have concluded a contract with me (Art. 20 GDPR).

If you have given me your consent, you can withdraw it at any time with effect for the future.

You can lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority at any time, e.g. the supervisory authority of the federal state where you live or the authority responsible for me as the controller. A list of supervisory authorities (for the non-public sector) with addresses can be found at: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Service/Anschriften/Laender/Laender-node.html.

Your right to object under Art. 21 GDPR

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (processing based on a balancing of interests).

If you object, I will no longer process your personal data unless I can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

The easiest way to object is by email to info@janpoth.de.

Changes to this privacy policy

I reserve the right to amend this privacy policy so that it always complies with current legal requirements or to reflect changes to this website. The new privacy policy will then apply to your next visit.
