1. Controller

The controller responsible for data processing within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:

Jannis T. Werner

2. Hosting and server logs

This website is hosted on Lovable Cloud and delivered through the Cloudflare content delivery network. When you visit the site, technically necessary data is processed so the page can be delivered at all — in particular the IP address of the requesting device, the browser used (user agent), the requested URL, and the time of access. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in providing the website securely and reliably pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. In doing so, Cloudflare may set the technically necessary __cf_bm cookie, which serves to fend off automated attacks and expires after about 30 minutes.

3. Usage and session analytics

The hosting platform (Lovable Cloud) embeds an integrated analytics function on this website, served from the site's own (first-party) domain. It processes technical usage data: the pages you view, time on page, bounce rate, the referring page, your browser and device type, and an approximate location (country) derived from your IP address. To recognise you within a session, pseudonymous identifiers are stored in your browser's local storage and cookies are set. The analytics also includes session replay: interactions with the page — such as page views, mouse and scroll movements, and clicks — are recorded so that usage can be understood; any text you enter is masked. The data is sent to endpoints on the same domain and processed by the platform operator (Lovable) as a data processor for the statistical evaluation of website usage. This analytics only runs if you agree via the consent banner; without your consent, no analytics data is collected or transmitted. The legal basis is your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) of the German TTDSG. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future via the "Privacy settings" link in the website footer.

4. Contact form

If you use the contact form, the data you provide (name, email address, and message) is stored in the website's database and forwarded by email to the operator via the delivery service Mailgun. The sender's IP address is stored only as a salted hash value in order to prevent abuse (rate limiting the number of messages). The legal basis for processing is the handling of your inquiry pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. The data is kept until your inquiry has been fully dealt with and is deleted on request.

5. Local storage

Your preferred language is stored in your browser's local storage under the key lang so the website appears in the correct language on your next visit. Your analytics consent decision (section 3) is also stored, under the key analytics-consent — this storage is strictly necessary to respect your choice (§ 25(2) TTDSG). Both entries are purely functional and are not used to track your behaviour.

6. Fonts

All fonts used on this website are served locally from our own server. No connections are made to Google Fonts or other external font providers, and accordingly no data is transmitted to such providers.

7. External links

This website links to the operator's Instagram profile. When you follow such a link, the privacy policy of the respective provider (Instagram) applies; we have no influence over their data processing.

8. Your rights

Within the limits of the law, you have the right to access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20), and the right to object to processing (Art. 21). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. The authority responsible for Berlin is the Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (Berliner Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit).
