Privacy Policy
I am delighted that you are interested in my website. Protecting your personal data is very important to me. Below, I would like to inform you about which data is collected when you visit this website and how it is processed – naturally in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

2. Hosting via Webflow
This website is hosted by Webflow, a U.S.-based website builder and hosting provider.
Provider:
Webflow
Webflow, Inc.
398 11th Street, 2nd Floor
San Francisco, CA 94103
USA
When visiting my website, Webflow collects certain technical data (e.g., IP address, browser information) in so-called server log files. In addition, Webflow uses necessary cookies and recognition technologies to ensure the basic functionality and security of the website. No tracking functionality is used.
The processing is based on my legitimate interest in the reliable and secure provision of my website (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Where explicit consent has been obtained, processing is additionally based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and Section 25 para. 1 TTDSG. You may withdraw your consent at any time.
I have concluded a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with Webflow. Webflow processes personal data only according to my instructions and in compliance with GDPR requirements.
Content Delivery Network (CDN) & International Data Transfers
To ensure fast and stable website delivery, Webflow uses a global Content Delivery Network (CDN). Data may be transmitted via the infrastructures of Fastly, Inc. and Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), both based in the United States.
The transfer of data is based on Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission and the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Webflow, Fastly, and AWS are certified under this framework and committed to complying with European data protection standards.

EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework
Please note: Although these service providers take measures to protect your data, an equivalent level of data protection as within the EU cannot be fully guaranteed when data is transferred to the United States. In particular, there is a theoretical possibility that U.S. authorities may gain access to personal data.
3. Contact Form
If you send me a message via the contact form, the information entered (name, email address, and message) will be transmitted to me via email and used solely to process your request.
Processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (pre-contractual measures) or, where no contractual relationship exists, on my legitimate interest in responding to your inquiry (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
4. Analytics Tool: Fathom Analytics
This website uses Fathom Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics service based in Canada.
I use Fathom in EU mode without cookies. No personal data is stored, no cookies are set, and no user profiles are created.
Only anonymous usage data (e.g., page views, referrer, device type) is collected to improve my website technically and in terms of content.
The use of Fathom Analytics is based on my legitimate interest in privacy-friendly website analytics (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
