2. Hosting and Content Delivery Network (CDN) via Cloudflare

This website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages and delivered via a content delivery network (CDN) for fast loading. The provider is Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA.

When you visit our website, data is recorded in so-called server log files to ensure stability, security, and fast loading times. Cloudflare processes customer data as a data processor; for other processing described in its own privacy policy, Cloudflare acts as a controller.

a) What data is processed?

If you use our website as a visitor without registering or otherwise actively entering data, the following data transmitted by your browser is processed:

  • Your IP address
  • Date and time of the request
  • Content accessed (specific page) and amount of data transferred
  • HTTP status code
  • Website from which the request came (referrer URL)
  • Information about your browser and operating system

b) Legal basis and purpose of processing

The processing of this data is technically necessary to reliably display our website and to ensure the stability and security of operations. This corresponds to our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest also lies in using a specialized provider for hosting instead of maintaining our own server infrastructure.

c) Data transfer to the USA and storage duration

Cloudflare may also process data on servers in the USA. In its privacy policy, Cloudflare says it relies on its EU-US Data Privacy Framework certification for transfers from the EEA to the USA. If that certification lapses or becomes invalid, Cloudflare states that it relies on Standard Contractual Clauses, with supplementary measures where necessary.

According to the “Data Retention” section of Cloudflare’s privacy policy, personal information is stored only for as long as is consistent with the business purposes described therein; when the retention period expires, Cloudflare deletes or destroys it.

d) Right to object and removal

Further information on data protection at Cloudflare and your objection options can be found directly in the provider's privacy policy: https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/

In principle, you have the right to object to the processing of your data. Whether such an objection is successful in an individual case must be determined through a balancing of interests between your rights and our compelling grounds worthy of protection for the processing (e.g. ensuring the functionality of the website). Some request data is technically necessary to deliver the page you requested.

3. Your rights as a data subject

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you may exercise the following rights where the applicable legal conditions are met:

  • Right of access to the data we process (Art. 15 GDPR).
  • Right to rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR).
  • Right to erasure of your data ("right to be forgotten") (Art. 17 GDPR).
  • Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR).
  • Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR).
  • Right to object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR).

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data by us.
