1. Data protection at a glance

General information

How do we collect your data?

Your data is collected in two ways:

Data you provide to us: For example, by email when you contact us.

Automatic data collection: When you visit this website, our IT systems automatically collect technical data (e.g. browser, operating system, time of page access). This collection takes place automatically as soon as you enter this website.

What do we use your data for?

Some data is collected to ensure that the website is provided without errors. Other data may be used to analyse your user behaviour (see the section “Google Analytics”).

What rights do you have regarding your data?

You have the right at any time to:

• Receive information free of charge about the origin, recipients and purpose of your stored personal data

• Request correction or deletion of your data

• Withdraw consent previously given for data processing with future effect

• Request restriction of processing under certain circumstances

Legal basis for hosting

3. General information and mandatory information

Controller

The controller within the meaning of the GDPR is:

Melanie Wildt

20255 Hamburg, Germany

Email: hallo@melaniewildt.de

The controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data.

Storage period

Unless a more specific storage period is stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with me until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for erasure or withdraw consent, your data will be deleted unless other legally permissible reasons for storage apply (such as retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, deletion will take place once these reasons no longer apply.

Legal bases for data processing

Unless stated otherwise below, I process your data on the basis of:
• Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent)
• Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract / pre-contractual measures) • Article 6(1)(c) GDPR (legal obligations) • Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interests)

Withdrawal of consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw consent already given at any time, for example by email to hallo@melaniewildt.de. The lawfulness of data processing carried out before withdrawal remains unaffected.

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of GDPR violations, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the member state of your habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. The competent authority for Hamburg is: The Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information Ludwig-Erhard-Straße 22, 20459 Hamburg, Germany

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive data that I process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract, either for yourself or for a third party, in a common machine-readable format.

SSL/TLS encryption

For security reasons, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection when the browser address line changes from “http://” to “https://”.

4. Data collection on this website

Cookies

This website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that do not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies). Where cookies are used for analysis, such as through Google Analytics, this only takes place where you have given your consent.

Legal bases

• Article 6(1)(f) GDPR where cookies are technically necessary

• Article 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25(1) TTDSG where consent is required, for example for Google Analytics

You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set, to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude acceptance of cookies in certain cases or generally, and to activate automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed.

Contact by email or telephone

If you contact me by email or telephone, your request, including all personal data resulting from it (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed for the purpose of handling your request. I do not share this data without your consent.

Legal bases

• Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where your enquiry is related to the performance of a contract or necessary for pre-contractual measures

• Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for all other enquiries, based on my legitimate interest in effectively handling enquiries addressed to me

The data you send me through a contact request will remain with me until you ask me to delete it, withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies, for example after your enquiry has been fully handled. Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

5. Analytics tools and advertising

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics uses cookies. Information generated by cookies about your use of this website is generally transmitted to and stored on a Google server. The storage of Google Analytics cookies and use of this analytics tool are based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(2) TTDSG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

IP anonymisation

IP anonymisation is enabled on this website; Google Analytics 4 already truncates/anonymises IP addresses by default within the EU/EEA before they are transferred to the USA in exceptional cases.

Browser plug-in

You can prevent collection by Google Analytics by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en. For more information about how Google Analytics handles user data, see Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en
