Privacy Policy
general information and mandatory disclosures
This is a courtesy English translation. The legally binding version is theGerman original.
The party responsible for data processing on this website is:
The controller determines, alone or jointly with others, the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, contact details or similar).
Withdrawal of your consent to data processing
Some data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient to withdraw consent. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out up until the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of a breach of data protection law, you as the data subject have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection matters is the state data protection commissioner of the federal state in which our company is based. The following link provides a list of data protection officers along with their contact details:Here
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party. The data is provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
Right to information, rectification, blocking and erasure
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, its recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, where applicable, a right to rectification, blocking or erasure of this data. In this regard and also for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time via the contact options listed in the legal notice.
SSL and TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This means that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the “https://“ in your browser's address bar and by the padlock symbol in the browser bar.
Server log files
In server log files, the website provider automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
Page visited on our domain
Date and time of the server request
Browser type and browser version
Operating system used
Referrer URLHost name of the accessing computer
IP address
This data is not merged with other data sources. The basis for the data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.
Contact form
Data transmitted via the contact form, including your contact details, is stored in order to process your enquiry or to be available for follow-up questions. This data is not passed on without your consent.
The processing of the data entered into the contact form takes place exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient to withdraw consent. The lawfulness of the data processing operations carried out up until the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Data transmitted via the contact form remains with us until you request its erasure, withdraw your consent to its storage or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
To send the notification of your enquiry and an automatic confirmation of receipt to you, we use the email delivery service Resend (Resend, Inc., USA) as a processor. In doing so, the data you enter in the form (name, email address, telephone number and message) is processed. To protect against automated misuse (spam), we additionally use a method that solves a computational task exclusively in your browser (proof of work) and does not transfer any personal data to third parties.
Fonts
For a consistent appearance, this website uses self-hosted fonts that are served exclusively from our own server. No third-party fonts (e.g. Google Fonts) are loaded. When the fonts are displayed, no connection to third-party servers is established and no personal data — in particular not your IP address — is transferred to third parties.
Web analytics with Umami
To analyse visits to this website statistically, we use Umami, a privacy-friendly analytics software that we self-host on our own server atanalytics.ivy-s.de. Umami does not use cookies, does not create cross-device profiles and does not share any data with third parties.
Only anonymised usage data is collected, such as the page visited, the referrer, the approximate location at country level, and the browser, operating system and device type. Your IP address is used only briefly to determine the country and is not stored; individual visitors cannot be identified.
The legal basis is our legitimate interest in a needs-based design and statistical analysis of our website pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
