Imprint & Privacy Policy of Alexa Glaser

I. Name and address of the controller

The controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation and other national data protection laws of the Member States as well as other data protection provisions is the person named in the Imprint.

II. General information on data processing

1. Scope of processing of personal data

We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users is regularly carried out only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where obtaining consent in advance is not possible for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legal provisions.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

If we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations of personal data, Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures.

To the extent that processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In the event that vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh that interest, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

3. Data deletion and storage duration

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Storage may continue to take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted when a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned provisions expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data for entering into or performing a contract.

III. Provision of the website and creation of log files

1. Description and Scope of Data Processing

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing device.

The following data are collected in this context:

1. Information about the browser type and the version used
2. The user's operating system
3. The user's Internet service provider
4. The user's IP address
5. Date and time of access
6. Websites from which the user's system reached our website
7. Websites that are accessed by the user's system via our website

The data are also stored in the log files of our system. These data are not stored together with other personal data of the user.

2. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

3. Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's device. For this purpose, the user's IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.
Storage in log files takes place to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data help us to technically optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. The data are not evaluated for marketing purposes in this context.

These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collected to provide the website, this is when the respective session has ended.
In the case of storage of the data in log files, this is the case after at most seven days. Longer storage is possible. In this case, the users' IP addresses are deleted or anonymized so that association with the calling client is no longer possible.

5. Right to object and removal options

The collection of data to provide the website and the storage of data in log files are strictly necessary for the operation of the website. Therefore, the user has no possibility to object.

This applies to the data collected during the registration process when the registration on our website is cancelled or changed.

This applies to the data collected during the registration process for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures when the data are no longer necessary for the performance of the contract. Even after conclusion of the contract, it may be necessary to retain personal data of the contractual partner in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.

5. Right to object and removal options

As a user you have the possibility at any time to terminate the registration. The data stored about you can be changed at any time. Please contact us for this purpose via the contact details given in the imprint.

3. Purpose of data processing

The processing of the personal data from the input form serves solely to handle the contact request. In the case of contact by e-mail, the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data also exists.

The other personal data processed during the sending process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

4. Duration of storage

The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. For the personal data from the input form of the contact form and those sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended.

VIII. Web analysis by Matomo (formerly PIWIK)

Matomo offers various options for web analysis. This tool offers the option to operate without setting cookies and only with anonymized or without IP addresses. As a result, the consent requirements do not apply. The explanation given below represents the standard case in which cookies are set.

1. Scope of processing of personal data

We use the open-source software tool Matomo (formerly PIWIK) on our website to analyze the surfing behavior of our users. The software sets a cookie on the users' computers (see above for cookies). When individual pages of our website are accessed, the following data are stored:

1. Two bytes of the IP address of the user's calling system
2. The page accessed
3. The website from which the user accessed the visited page (referrer)
4. The subpages that are accessed from the visited page
5. The duration of stay on the website
6. The frequency of visits to the website

The software runs exclusively on the servers of our website. Personal data of users is stored only there. No data is passed on to third parties.
The software is configured so that IP addresses are not stored in full, but 2 bytes of the IP address are masked (e.g.: 192.168.xxx.xxx). In this way, assignment of the shortened IP address to the requesting computer is no longer possible.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

The legal basis for the processing of users' personal data is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

3. Purpose of data processing

The processing of users' personal data enables us to analyze the browsing behavior of our users. By evaluating the collected data, we can compile information about the use of the individual components of our website. This helps us to continuously improve our website and its user-friendliness. Our legitimate interest in processing the data pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR also lies in these purposes. By anonymizing the IP address, the users' interest in the protection of their personal data is adequately taken into account.

4. Duration of storage

The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer needed for our recording purposes.

5. Right to object and removal options

Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted to our site by the user. Therefore, as a user you have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your web browser you can disable or restrict the storage of cookies. Cookies that have already been stored can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies for our website are disabled, it may no longer be possible to use all functions of the website in full.

IX. Integration of external services

Embedding YouTube videos

We embed videos from the YouTube service, an offering of Google LLC (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland), on our website. When a video is played, your browser automatically transmits data such as IP address, browser type, operating system, date/time and interactions to YouTube servers. YouTube may also use cookies and similar technologies. Legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in providing multimedia content). Because YouTube sets tracking cookies, we obtain your consent in advance. You can revoke your consent at any time in our cookie settings. Data are transferred to the USA; Google is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework ("Privacy Shield"). For more information see Google's privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy. You have all rights of data subjects under the GDPR.

Embedding Vimeo videos

We embed videos from the Vimeo service on our website. The provider is Vimeo.com, Inc., 330 West 34th Street, New York, NY 10001, USA. As soon as you start such a video, your browser automatically establishes a connection to the Vimeo servers. In doing so, in particular your IP address, information about browser/operating system, date and time of access as well as your interactions (e.g. start, pause) are transmitted. Vimeo uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. The embedded player sets, among others, the cookie "vuid" (storage duration ≈ 2 years, purpose = usage statistics) and "player" (≈ 1 year, purpose = storage of your player settings); further technically necessary cookies may be added, e.g. for bot protection.
The legal basis for the integration is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in an appealing, multimedia presentation of our offers). Since the Vimeo players may set cookies for reach and usage analysis, we obtain your explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR before loading the player. You can revoke this consent at any time in the cookie settings of our website with effect for the future.
By using the player, personal data are transferred to the USA. Vimeo participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and is thus certified for transatlantic data transfer pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR.
Further information on data processing by Vimeo can be found in the provider's privacy policy at https://vimeo.com/privacy. You have all data subject rights under the GDPR (access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, complaint to a supervisory authority).

Embedding Google Maps

On our website we use the Google Maps mapping service of Google LLC (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). With each map request your browser automatically transmits data such as IP address, browser type, geodata (if released), date/time and cookies to the Google servers. Legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in an interactive map display). Your consent is required in advance because Google Maps may set tracking cookies. Revocation in our cookie settings is possible at any time. Data are transferred to the USA; Google is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework ("Privacy Shield"). More information: https://policies.google.com/privacy. Data subject rights: access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, objection.

Embedding OpenStreetMap

Our website uses OpenStreetMap, provided by the OpenStreetMap Foundation (65 Leazes Park Road, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 4PF, United Kingdom). When the map is loaded, only map data (tile images, scripts) are retrieved from the OpenStreetMap server; personal data are collected only if you agree to share your device’s location. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in map display). OpenStreetMap does not set tracking cookies, so no consent is required. The servers are located in Europe; no data transfer to third countries takes place. More information: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy. Data subject rights: access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, objection.

Integration of tawk.to chat

On our website we use the live chat service tawk.to, a service of tawk.to Inc. (187 East Warm Springs Rd, SB298, Las Vegas, Nevada 89119, USA). When the chat widget loads, data such as IP address, browser type, operating system, date/time of the visit and, if applicable, location data and cookies are automatically transmitted to tawk.to. Processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in direct user communication). Because tawk.to sets cookies, your consent for this is required and can be revoked at any time via our cookie banner. The data transfer to the USA takes place with tawk.to’s participation in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF and the Swiss-U.S. DPF. More information can be found in tawk.to’s privacy policy at https://www.tawk.to/privacy-policy/. You have the data subject rights provided for in the GDPR (access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, objection).

Integration of Google Fonts

We use fonts (“Google Web Fonts”) from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland on our website to improve readability and the uniform appearance of our pages. The font files are only loaded after you have expressly consented to the corresponding category (“Fonts/External Media”) via our consent banner. Only after your consent does your browser connect to the domains fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com; in doing so, your IP address and certain technical information (e.g., browser type, operating system and referrer URL) are transmitted to Google in the USA. The legal basis for this processing is your voluntary consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, given solely for the stated purpose. You can withdraw your consent at any time with future effect by clicking “Change settings” in the cookie banner or by deleting the corresponding cookies in your browser. Details on the retention period and scope of the data processed by Google can be found in Google’s privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy. For more information about your rights and general data protection information, please refer to the other sections of this privacy policy.

Integration of Google Analytics (GA4)

We use the web analytics tool Google Analytics version 4 on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Service provider is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; for Europe Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland acts. The purpose of the processing is to statistically analyze user behavior on our website, measure reach and continuously optimize our content.
For this purpose Google Analytics stores, among other things, device and browser information, pseudonymized user IDs, pages accessed, time spent, click paths, coarse location data and events defined by us (e.g., scroll depth or video views). The IP address is truncated (so-called IP anonymization) before any further processing within the EU or EEA so that no direct personal reference remains.
The collected information may be transferred to and processed on Google’s servers in the USA. Google bases these transfers on the EU standard contractual clauses; furthermore there is a contract for data processing on behalf of the controller with Google pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. By default, user and event data are retained for 14 months and then automatically deleted or anonymized; deviating retention periods have been documented by us in the Google Analytics interface.
You can withdraw your consent at any time with future effect by disabling the “Statistics” category in our cookie banner. In addition, Google offers a browser add-on to disable Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. The lawfulness of processing carried out up to the time of withdrawal remains unaffected.

c) Exceptions

The right to erasure does not exist insofar as the processing is necessary

1. for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information;
2. to comply with a legal obligation requiring processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
3. for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) GDPR;

5. Right to be informed

If you have exercised the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing with regard to the controller, the controller shall communicate any rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
You shall have the right to be informed by the controller about those recipients.

6. Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data have been provided, where

1. the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and
2. the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right you also have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. This shall be without prejudice to the freedoms and rights of others.
The right to data portability shall not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

7. Right to object

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on those provisions.

The controller shall no longer process the personal data unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

Where personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you shall no longer be processed for such purposes.

You shall have the right to object, in the context of the use of information society services - notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC - to processing of personal data concerning you by automated means which are based on public interest or the exercise of official authority, using specifications provided by Union or Member State law.

You shall also have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing of personal data concerning you for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) GDPR.

Your right to object may be restricted to the extent that the processing is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the research or statistical purposes and the restriction is necessary for the performance of those purposes.

8. Right to withdraw consent under data protection law

You have the right to withdraw your consent to data processing at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

9. Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling - which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

1. is necessary for entering into or performing a contract between you and the controller,
2. is permitted by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and that law includes appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, or
3. is based on your explicit consent.

However, such decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Article 9(1) GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) GDPR applies and appropriate safeguards for the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests have been implemented.

In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, which shall include at least the right to obtain human intervention by the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.

10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint was lodged shall inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Article 78 GDPR.
