Privacy

Scope

This data protection declaration is intended to inform the users of this website in accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act and Telemedia Act about the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator Michael Zimmer.

The website operator takes your data protection very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal regulations.

Bear in mind that data transmission on the Internet can generally be subject to security gaps. Full protection against unauthorized access is not possible.

Access data

The website operator or site provider collects data about access to the site and saves it as “server log files”. The following data is logged in this way:

  • Visited website
  • Time at the time of access
  • Amount of data sent in bytes
  • Source / reference from which you came to the page
  • Browser used
  • Operating system used
  • IP address used

The data collected are only used for statistical evaluations and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to check the server log files retrospectively if there are concrete indications of illegal use.

Cookies

This site uses cookies. These are small text files that are saved on your device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website.

Common browsers offer the setting option not to allow cookies. Note: There is no guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if you make the appropriate settings.

Handling of contact details

The website operator collects, uses and passes on your personal data only if this is permitted by law or if you consent to the data being collected.

Personal data is all information that is used to identify your person and which can be traced back to you – for example your name, your e-mail address and telephone number.

If you contact the website operator through the contact options offered, your details will be saved so that they can be used to process and answer your request. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

Dealing with posts and contributions

If you leave a post or comment on this website, your IP address will be saved. This is for the security of the website operator: If your text violates the law, he wants to be able to trace your identity.

Subscriptions

You have the option to subscribe to the entire website as well as follow-up comments on your post. You will receive an email confirming your email address. Apart from this, no further data is collected. The stored data will not be passed on to third parties. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Google Analytics

This website uses the “Google Analytics” service offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to analyze website usage by users. The service uses “cookies” – text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymization is used on this website. The IP address of the user is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This abbreviation eliminates the personal reference to your IP address. As part of the contract data agreement, which the website operators have concluded with Google Inc., Google Inc. uses the information collected to compile an evaluation of website usage and website activity and provides services related to internet usage.

You have the option of preventing the storage of cookies on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. There is no guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.

You can also use a browser plug-in to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to Google Inc. and used by Google Inc. The following link takes you to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
Alternatively, by clicking on this link, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you on this website. By clicking on the link above, you download an “opt-out cookie”. Your browser must therefore generally allow the storage of cookies. If you delete your cookies regularly, you will need to click on the link every time you visit this website.

User rights: information, correction and deletion

As a user, you will receive free information on your request about which personal data has been stored about you. If your request does not conflict with a legal obligation to store data (e.g. data retention), you have the right to have incorrect data corrected and to have your personal data blocked or deleted.
