Data Collection and Processing

Web Analysis

The protection of personal data is an important concern for us. This website therefore uses the privacy-focused web analysis service Pirsch.io by Emvi Software GmbH, Nickelstraße 1b, 33378 Rheda-Wiedenbrück, based in Germany, to record and analyze visits and interactions on this website.

Pirsch.io does not use cookies and does not store any personal data. Neither IP addresses nor fingerprints are stored. All accesses are collected anonymously and thus do not allow the identification of visitors to the website. All collected data is stored and processed in Germany in accordance with strict European data protection laws. There is also no transfer of data to third parties.

The analysis of accesses is carried out for the purpose of improving the quality of our website and its content. Through the analysis, we learn how the website is used and can continuously optimize our offer.

Prisch.io hosts its servers in Germany at Hetzner. This not only means that the data is stored within the European Union, but also that the servers are operated 100% with green electricity (Sustainability at Hetzner).

Server Log Files

Our website is hosted on servers provided by Hetzner in Germany. The server provider automatically stores information in server log files, which your browser transmits automatically when you access this website. These include:

These data are not combined with other data sources and are used solely for the technical execution of website hosting.

The basis for this data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. There is a legitimate interest, as the collection of this data is necessary for the execution of website hosting and no further processing takes place.

Newsletter

We use the service CleverReach for sending newsletters. This service is provided by the German company CleverReach GmbH & Co KG (Website: https://www.cleverreach.com/de-de/).

For subscribing to our newsletter, registration is required, during which personal data such as your email address and name will be collected and processed by CleverReach To verify your registration, your IP address, as well as the date and time of your registration, will be recorded and stored on CleverReach servers.

In addition, Google's reCaptcha service is used during registration to determine whether the entry is made by a human or a computer. Google checks the following data to make this determination: IP address of the device being used, the website you are visiting where the captcha is embedded, the date and duration of the visit, identification data of the browser and operating system used, Google account (if logged into Google), mouse movements on the reCaptcha areas, and tasks that require you to identify images. This data processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, as there is a legitimate interest in ensuring the security of our website and protecting it from automated entries (attacks).

CleverReach also analyzes interactions with the sent newsletters (such as open rates and click rates on links within the newsletter) to continuously improve the quality and relevance of our newsletters.

The processing of data by CleverReach is based on your consent given at the time of subscribing to the newsletter (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter or contacting us. The legality of the data processing operations carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.
