PRIVACY
Datenschutzerklärung
We collect as little personal data as possible. This page explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how long we keep it. German statutory references are kept verbatim because they identify the specific provisions that apply.
DATA CONTROLLER
The data controller for processing on this website is the person named in our imprint. If you have any questions about data protection, please email udo.buck@yahoo.de.
GENERAL NOTES
The following notes give a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website. Personal data is any data with which you can be personally identified (Art. 4 No. 1 DSGVO).
Data processing on this website is carried out by the site operator. Where personal data (such as a name or email address) is collected, this is always done on a voluntary basis. We do not pass this data on to third parties without your express consent.
HOSTING & SERVER LOGS
This website is hosted by Vercel Inc., 340 S Lemon Ave #4133, Walnut, CA 91789, USA. When you access our pages, Vercel automatically processes technical information that your browser transmits (so-called server log files): IP address, date and time of the request, requested URL, referrer URL, browser, and operating system.
The legal basis is Art. 6 (1)(f) DSGVO. The operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and delivery of the website. Because Vercel transfers data to the USA, the transfer is based on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and additionally on Standard Contractual Clauses pursuant to Art. 46 (2)(c) DSGVO.
DATABASE & AUTH (SUPABASE)
For database, authentication, and file storage we use Supabase Inc., 970 Toa Payoh North #07-04, Singapore 318992. Supabase processes the personal data that you actively submit to us (for example, your email address when subscribing to the newsletter) and technical connection data on our behalf.
A data processing agreement (DPA) under Art. 28 DSGVO is in place with Supabase. Where data transfers occur outside the EEA, Supabase ensures an adequate level of data protection through Standard Contractual Clauses.
NEWSLETTER
On the home page you can submit your email address to be notified about the launch of the first issue and future issues of the magazine. Signup is voluntary. We process only the email address and the timestamp of the signup.
The legal basis is your consent under Art. 6 (1)(a) DSGVO. You can withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future by sending an informal email to udo.buck@yahoo.de. The lawfulness of the processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.
Your email address is stored until you withdraw your consent or the purpose of the processing no longer applies (for example, if the magazine is permanently discontinued). The data is not passed on to third parties.
EMAIL CONTACT
When you contact us by email, your details — including the contact information you provide there — are stored by us for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass this data on without your consent.
The legal basis is Art. 6 (1)(b) DSGVO insofar as your inquiry is connected with the performance of a contract or is necessary to take pre-contractual steps. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1)(f) DSGVO).
COOKIES & LOCAL STORAGE
This website only uses technically necessary cookies and local storage entries that are required to provide the functionality you have explicitly requested (in particular session cookies for signing in to the administration area). This storage is permitted without consent under § 25 (2) No. 2 TTDSG.
We do not use any tracking, analytics, or marketing cookies.
SSL/TLS ENCRYPTION
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the https:// prefix in your browser's address bar.
YOUR RIGHTS
You have the right at any time to obtain information (Art. 15 DSGVO), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), to object to processing (Art. 21), and to data portability (Art. 20). Where processing is based on your consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future.
Please direct such requests to udo.buck@yahoo.de.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 DSGVO). For the residence of the controller, this is the Landesbeauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit Nordrhein-Westfalen, Kavalleriestraße 2–4, 40213 Düsseldorf, Germany.
RETENTION
Unless a more specific retention period is stated in this notice, your personal data remains with us until the purpose of the data processing no longer applies or you request its deletion. Statutory retention obligations remain unaffected.
UPDATES TO THIS NOTICE
We reserve the right to amend this privacy notice so that it continues to comply with current legal requirements or to reflect changes to our services. The new privacy notice will then apply on your next visit.
