Data protection
We have written this data protection declaration (version 16.07.2021-121781400) to explain to you, in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and applicable national laws, which personal data (data for short) we as the person responsible - and that of Processors commissioned by us (e.g. provider) - process, will process in the future and what legitimate options you have. The terms used are gender-neutral.
In short: We provide you with comprehensive information about the data that we process about you.
Data protection declarations usually sound very technical and use legal terminology. However, this data protection declaration is intended to describe the most important things to you as simply and transparently as possible. As far as transparency is beneficial, technical terms are explained in a reader-friendly manner, links to further information are provided and graphics are used. We are informing in clear and simple language that we only process personal data in the context of our business activities if there is a corresponding legal basis. This is certainly not possible if you make as brief, unclear and legal-technical statements as possible, as they are often standard on the Internet when it comes to data protection. I hope you find the following explanations interesting and informative and maybe there is one or the other piece of information that you were not familiar with.
If you still have questions, we would like to ask you to contact the responsible body named below or in the imprint, to follow the links provided and to look at further information on third-party sites. You can of course also find our contact details in the legal notice.

What is web hosting?
When you visit websites these days, certain information - including personal data - is automatically created and stored, including on this website. This data should be processed as sparingly as possible and only with justification. By the way, by website we mean the entirety of all websites on a domain, i.e. everything from the start page (homepage) to the very last subpage (like this one). By domain we mean example.de or musterbeispiel.com.
When you want to view a website on one screen, you use a program called a web browser. You probably know some web browsers by name: Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple Safari.
This web browser has to connect to another computer where the website's code is stored: the web server. The operation of a web server is a complicated and time-consuming task, which is why this is usually done by professional providers, the providers. These offer web hosting and thus ensure reliable and error-free storage of website data.
When the browser establishes a connection on your computer (desktop, laptop, smartphone) and while data is being transferred to and from the web server, personal data may be processed. On the one hand, your computer stores data, on the other hand, the web server must also store data for a period of time in order to ensure proper operation.
Why do we process personal data?
The purposes of the data processing are:
Professional hosting of the website and security of operation to maintain operational and IT security Anonymous evaluation of the access behavior to improve our offer and, if necessary, to prosecute or prosecute claims.
Which data are processed?
Even while you are visiting our website, our web server, that is the computer on which this website is saved, usually automatically saves data such as the complete Internet address (URL) of the website called up (e.g. https://www.beispielwebsite.de/beispieluntereite.html?tid=121781400) Browser and browser version (e.g. Chrome 87) the operating system used (e.g. Windows 10) the address (URL) of the previously visited page (referrer URL) (e.g. https://www.beispielquellsite.de/vondabinichgekommen.html/) the host name and the IP address of the device from which the access is made (e.g. COMPUTERNAME and 194.23.43.121) Date and time in files, the so-called web server log files.
How long is data stored?
As a rule, the above data is stored for two weeks and then automatically deleted. We do not pass on this data, but we cannot rule out that this data will be viewed by the authorities in the event of illegal behavior.
In short: your visit will be logged by our provider (company that runs our website on special computers (servers)), but we will not pass on your data without your consent!
Legal basis
The legality of the processing of personal data in the context of web hosting results from Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.f GDPR (safeguarding legitimate interests), because the use of professional hosting with a provider is necessary to keep the company on the Internet safe and user-friendly and to be able to pursue attacks and claims from them if necessary.
