3.1 Hosting and Content Delivery
This website is self-hosted using Ghost CMS. Cloudflare is used as a security and performance optimization service. Cloudflare may process data, such as IP addresses, for security purposes and may transfer data outside the EU. Such transfers are governed by Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) and other appropriate safeguards.

3.2 Cookies and Consent Management
CookieYes is used to manage user consent for cookies. By visiting this site, users will be prompted to accept or decline certain cookies.

  • Additional Note: Ghost does not set any non-essential cookies by default. If any further tracking or analytics tools are integrated in the future, they must be explicitly listed along with their purposes.

3.3 Newsletter Subscription
If a user signs up for the email newsletter, the email address is collected solely for sending updates.

  • Additional Note: Should an external newsletter service be used (for example, Mailchimp or any other provider), the service provider must be clearly named, and details regarding data processing, storage duration (typically until the user unsubscribes), and protective measures should be provided.

3.4 Server Log Files
The hosting provider automatically collects and stores data in server log files, including:

  • IP address (anonymized or pseudonymized where technically feasible)
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Referrer URL
  • Time of access
    These logs are used for security purposes and are not combined with other personal data.

4. Legal Basis for Processing
Personal data is processed based on the following legal grounds:

  • Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR – Consent (for cookies and newsletter subscriptions)
  • Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR – Contractual necessity (if applicable)
  • Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR – Legitimate interest (e.g., security measures, analytics)

5. Data Retention and Deletion
Personal data is stored only for as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected.

  • Additional Note: Newsletter subscription data is retained until the user unsubscribes. For other data types, specific retention periods may be defined if applicable, and once no longer required, data is deleted.
