Privacy

How we handle personal data on this website – what is collected, why, how long it is kept and which rights you have.

We take the protection of your personal data seriously. This privacy policy explains which data is processed when you visit this website, for what purpose and on which legal basis, and which rights you have under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

2. Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany, which processes data on our behalf (Art. 28 GDPR). Each time you visit a page, your browser automatically transmits the following data, which is stored in server log files:

  • IP address of the requesting device
  • date and time of the request
  • page or file requested
  • website from which you came (referrer)
  • browser and operating system used

This data is processed to deliver the website, to ensure its stability and security and to detect misuse. The legal basis is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The log files are kept only as long as necessary for these purposes and are then deleted or anonymised. The data is not combined with other data sources.

3. Cookies and local storage

This website does not use tracking, analytics or advertising tools and does not set cookies for visitors.

If you allow or decline external media via “Cookie settings”, your choice is stored in your browser’s local storage (entry “pluri-consent”) for up to twelve months. It stays on your device and is not transmitted to us. The legal basis is Section 25(2) of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG) and Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Editors who log in receive technically necessary WordPress cookies.

4. Videos and podcasts (YouTube, Spotify)

Videos and podcast episodes from external platforms are only loaded after you click on them or have allowed external media in the “Cookie settings”. Until then, no data is transmitted to these providers.

  • YouTube (in privacy-enhanced mode, youtube-nocookie.com): Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland – privacy policy
  • Spotify: Spotify AB, Regeringsgatan 19, 111 53 Stockholm, Sweden – privacy policy

When the content is loaded, your IP address and technical information about your browser are transmitted to the provider, which may also set cookies. Data may be transferred to the USA; the providers are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. The legal basis is your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future via “Cookie settings”.

Links to YouTube, Spotify and other external websites open the respective website; their own privacy policies apply there.

5. Fonts

All fonts are hosted on our own server. No connection to external font services (such as Google Fonts) is established.

6. Contact by email

If you contact us by email, we process the data you provide (e.g. name, email address, content of your message) to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry relates to a contract or pre-contractual measures, otherwise our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We delete the data as soon as it is no longer required, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

7. Encryption

This website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by “https://” in the address bar of your browser.

8. Your rights

You have the right to:

  • access your personal data (Art. 15 GDPR)
  • rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
  • erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
  • restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
  • data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
  • object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 GDPR)
