Retention period: The log files are typically automatically deleted after 7 days, unless there are security-relevant incidents that require longer retention.

To enhance security, additional protective measures are employed, including Cloudflare protection mechanisms, a server-side firewall, and manual review of server logs. The website is also protected against abusive requests through rate limiting.

Cloudflare Services

This website uses services from Cloudflare Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures an adequate level of data protection.

Cloudflare Turnstile:

We use Cloudflare Turnstile, a privacy-friendly bot protection for our contact form. Turnstile analyzes browser behavior to distinguish real users from automated bots, without requiring you to solve a captcha. Certain technical information from your device (e.g., screen resolution, browser settings, device information) and your IP address are transmitted to Cloudflare. This data is processed by Cloudflare solely for the purpose of bot detection and is not linked to other data.

Additional Cloudflare Protection Mechanisms:

We also use additional Cloudflare protection features such as DDoS protection and Web Application Firewall (WAF). These services route all traffic to our website through Cloudflare's servers to protect our website from malicious access. Certain information such as your IP address, browser type, and visited page is transmitted to Cloudflare and temporarily stored there.

Legal Basis and Retention Period:

The use of Cloudflare services is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR, based on our legitimate interest in:

  • Protecting the website and its users from malicious bots, spam, and cyber attacks
  • Ensuring the availability and integrity of the website
  • Improving overall website security

The data processed by Cloudflare is stored only for as long as necessary to provide the services, according to their privacy policy.

3. Contact Form

When you contact us through the contact form, your information (name, email address, possibly phone number and message) is processed to handle your inquiry and for any follow-up questions.

The submitted information is not stored in a database but is transmitted directly to us via email through a secure SMTP service (Google Workspace). The connection is encrypted using TLS (Transport Layer Security).

Legal basis: Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the implementation of pre-contractual measures (for inquiries about our services) and in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR due to our legitimate interest in efficient communication and handling your request.

Retention period: Your information will be deleted once your inquiry has been fully processed and no legal retention obligations exist, typically after 3 months. If further communication is expected (e.g., as part of an offer or project start), the data will be retained until the completion of the process and then deleted.

The transmission of data to Google Workspace for email processing is based on a data processing agreement according to Art. 28 GDPR. For more information about data protection at Google, please visit: https://policies.google.com/privacy
