2. Overview

This website is a personal portfolio without user accounts, forms or a shop. Personal data is only processed where it is technically required to run the site or where you have given consent. Fonts are served locally, so no data is sent to Google to load them.

3. Hosting with Vercel

This website is hosted by Vercel Inc., 440 N Barranca Ave #4133, Covina, CA 91723, USA. When you visit, Vercel processes technically required data such as your IP address, date and time, requested URL, referrer and browser information in server log files to deliver the site and protect it against abuse.

The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR; my legitimate interest is to provide the website securely and reliably. A data processing agreement is in place with Vercel. Vercel is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework; the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses apply in addition.

4. Consent management with Usercentrics

To manage your consent, I use the consent management platform of Usercentrics GmbH, Sendlinger Straße 7, 80331 Munich, Germany. It processes your consent decision, an anonymous consent ID, date and time, browser and device information and a shortened IP address, and stores your choice in your browser’s local storage.

The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 7 (1) GDPR, as I must be able to prove consent. Storing your choice in the browser is strictly necessary under Section 25 (2) no. 2 TDDDG. You can change your choice at any time via Cookie settings.

5. Google Analytics 4

Only if you consent, I use Google Analytics 4 by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, to understand how the website is used. Without your consent, the Google script is not loaded.

Google Analytics sets cookies and processes usage data such as pages viewed, time on page, where the visit came from, approximate location (derived from the shortened IP address), device type, browser and operating system. Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses. Data may be transferred to servers of Google LLC in the USA; Google is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. The retention period is set to 14 months.

The legal basis is your consent under Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. You can withdraw it at any time with effect for the future via Cookie settings.

6. Links to other websites and app stores

This website links to other websites and app stores such as Google Play, the Apple App Store or LinkedIn. Data is only sent to these providers once you click such a link. Their own privacy policies apply to that processing.

7. Contact by email

If you email me, I process your details to answer your request (Art. 6 (1) (b) or (f) GDPR). The data is deleted once it is no longer needed for that purpose and no statutory retention obligations apply.

8. Your rights

Within the limits of the law, you have the right to

• access the data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR),
• have inaccurate data corrected (Art. 16 GDPR),
• erasure (Art. 17 GDPR) and restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR),
• data portability (Art. 20 GDPR),
• object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 GDPR),
• withdraw consent with effect for the future (Art. 7 (3) GDPR).

You can also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, for example the Brandenburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Access to Files, Stahnsdorfer Damm 77, 14532 Kleinmachnow, Germany.
