2. Principle & overview of processing
Protecting your personal data matters to us. We process data solely on the basis of the applicable law (GDPR, BDSG, TDDDG). This website is a largely static company presentation and only collects the technically necessary data. We essentially process:
- Usage and meta data (e.g. IP address, time, page requested) when the site is accessed,
- Contact data (e.g. name, email, phone number) when you contact us,
- Statistics data for web analytics — only after your consent.
3. Legal bases
- Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent) — e.g. for web analytics,
- Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (contract / pre-contract) — e.g. for a project enquiry,
- Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest) — e.g. for secure, stable operation,
- for storing or reading information on your device, additionally § 25 TDDDG.
4. Hosting & server logs (Amazon Web Services)
This website is hosted with Amazon Web Services. The provider is Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL,38 Avenue John F. Kennedy, L-1855 Luxemburg (“AWS”). Content is delivered via the Amazon CloudFront content delivery network and the Amazon S3 storage service; the origin server location is Frankfurt am Main (Region eu-central-1).
When the site is accessed, AWS processes technically necessary access data on our behalf (including IP address, date and time, requested URL, volume of data transferred, referrer, and browser/operating system identifiers). The purpose is the secure, stable and performant delivery of the website. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in a reliable web presence (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Where server logs are stored, this is only short-term and they are deleted regularly unless needed to investigate faults or security incidents.
A data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR is in place with AWS. Where data may be transferred to the parent company Amazon.com, Inc. in the USA, it is certified under theEU-US Data Privacy Framework; the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses apply in addition.
5. SSL/TLS encryption
For security reasons this website uses TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by “https://” in the address bar and the padlock symbol in your browser.
6. Fonts
Web fonts are served locally from our own server. There is no connection to third-party servers (e.g. Google Fonts); no data is transferred to third parties for this purpose when the page is loaded.
7. Cookies & consent
By default this website only sets technically necessary cookies. Your cookie decision is stored locally in your browser (entry tn-consent in local storage, retained for up to 6 months); no consent is required for this (§ 25(2) TDDDG, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Cookies for web analytics are only set after your explicit consent (§ 25(1) TDDDG). You can change or withdraw your choice at any time with effect for the future:
8. Web analytics with Google Analytics 4
If you consent, we use Google Analytics 4, a service of Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). Google Analytics uses cookies (including _ga and_ga_<ID>, retained for up to 2 years each) to analyse how the website is used. IP anonymisation is active; advertising features, “Google Signals” and personalised ads are disabled.Before your consent, no analytics cookies are set and no data is sent to Google (Google Consent Mode v2).
The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, § 25(1) TDDDG). A transfer to the USA may take place; Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. A data processing agreement is in place with Google. You can withdraw your consent at any time via the cookie settings.
9. Contacting us
If you contact us by email or phone, your details are processed to handle the enquiry and any follow-up questions (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR). We do not pass this data on without your consent and delete it once it is no longer required; statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
10. Recipients & third-country transfers
As processors (Art. 28 GDPR) we use: Amazon Web Services (hosting/CDN) and — only after consent — Google (web analytics). Any further disclosure only takes place where we are legally obliged to do so. Transfers to third countries (USA) are safeguarded by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and supplementary standard contractual clauses.
11. Your rights
You have the right at any time to:
- access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17),
- restriction of processing (Art. 18) and data portability (Art. 20),
