Disclaimer
§ 1 Content Disclaimer
The free and publicly accessible content on this website was created with the utmost care. However, the provider assumes no liability for the accuracy and timeliness of the provided content. Signed contributions reflect the opinion of the respective author. Accessing the free content does not establish any contractual relationship between the user and the provider.
§ 2 External Links
This website contains links to third-party websites. These websites are subject to the liability of their respective operators. The provider checked external links for potential legal violations at the time of linking; no violations were apparent. The provider has no influence on the current or future design and content of linked pages. Continuous monitoring of external links is not reasonable without specific indications of legal violations. Upon notification of violations, such links will be removed immediately.

The content published on this website is subject to German copyright law. Any use not permitted by German copyright law requires prior written consent. This applies to reproduction, editing, translation, storage, and processing in databases or other electronic media. Unauthorized reproduction or distribution is prohibited.

Hosting
This website is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) using CloudFront CDN. AWS processes data in accordance with GDPR requirements.
Server Log Files
For technical operation and security, the following data is automatically collected: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referrer URL, pages visited, date and time of access. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in secure website operation). Log data is not merged with other data sources.
Cookies
This website does not set cookies. On the appointment booking pages, Cloudflare Turnstile runs in its own frame (see below).
Third-Party Services
Apart from the exali liability seal, the appointment booking and the self-hosted audience measurement described below, this website does not use third-party analytics, tracking services, or social media plugins.
Audience measurement with Umami
To understand how this website is found and used, I measure its reach with Umami, an open-source analytics software that I host myself. Umami runs on a server of Hetzner Online GmbH (Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany) in Nuremberg, Germany, and is reached through this website’s own domain; no data is passed to third parties. Hetzner processes the data on my behalf under a data processing agreement.
Processed data: the pages you visit and the order you visit them in, the referring website, campaign parameters in the link (utm_*), browser, operating system, device type, screen size, language, and the country, region and city derived from your IP address, plus clicks on booking buttons, external links and the language switch, and the steps of the appointment booking (without your name, email or message). Your IP address is not stored: visits are grouped by a salted hash of IP address and browser that changes every month, so you cannot be identified, and you are not recognised from one month to the next.
This website does not set cookies for this and stores nothing on your device. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, my legitimate interest in understanding the reach of this website and improving it.
exali Liability Seal
This website embeds the liability insurance seal of exali AG. The seal graphic is loaded from exali AG's servers; to deliver it to your browser, your IP address is necessarily processed. If you click the seal, you leave this website and are redirected to exali AG's servers.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Purpose and legitimate interest: providing the mandatory information on professional liability insurance under § 2(1) no. 11 DL-InfoV in a clear and visually appealing way.
More information: exali privacy policy, section “Use/embedding of the exali.de liability seal”
Appointment Booking
You can book a meeting with me on the pages under /meet. To schedule the meeting and send you confirmation and reminder emails I process your name, your email address, the email addresses of additional guests you add, your notes, the chosen time and your time zone.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (steps prior to entering into a contract at your request).
Recipients: the meeting is created in my Google Workspace calendar with a Google Meet video link (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; transfers to Google LLC, USA, are covered by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework). Booking data is processed and the confirmation and reminder emails are sent on Amazon Web Services in Frankfurt, Germany (AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon SES, Amazon EventBridge Scheduler).
Retention: the booking record is deleted automatically 90 days after the meeting. The calendar entry is kept as a business record.
Cloudflare Turnstile
The booking form is protected against automated abuse by Cloudflare Turnstile (Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). Turnstile is only loaded on the booking pages, where it runs invisibly, without a visible widget, when you confirm a booking. To tell humans from bots, Cloudflare processes your IP address and technical characteristics of your browser and device; this website does not set cookies for it.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, my legitimate interest in protecting the booking form; storage of and access to information on your device is strictly necessary for this service you request (§ 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG). Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
