What personal data do we collect?

Messages and Comments

When visitors leave comments on the website (such as in our chat), we collect the data displayed in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to aid spam detection.

An anonymous string created from your email address (also called a hash) can be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The privacy policy for the Gravatar service is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

In addition the website provider automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us in “server log files”. These are: Browser type and browser version, operating system used, referring URL, host name of the accessing computer, time of the server request and IP address.

This data will not be combined with data from other sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or for measures preliminary to a contract.

We will retain the data you provide in the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to its storage or the purpose of its storage no longer applies (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any mandatory legal provisions, especially those relating to mandatory data retention periods, shall remain unaffected by this provision.
