2. Data Collection on Our Website

Server Log Files

When you visit this website, the website provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL (the previously visited page)
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or for measures preliminary to a contract, as well as for the legitimate interest of ensuring the secure and error-free operation of the website.

Cloudflare (Content Delivery Network & Security)

We use the services of Cloudflare, Inc. (101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA) to make our website faster and more secure (e.g., through DDoS protection and a Web Application Firewall).

When you visit our website, your traffic is routed through Cloudflare's network. In this process, Cloudflare may collect metadata regarding your website visit, including your IP address. This processing is based on our legitimate interest in providing a secure and efficient website interface (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Cloudflare acts as a data processor and complies with applicable data protection laws.

3. Plugins and Embedded Content

YouTube with Expanded Data Protection Integration

Our website embeds videos from the website YouTube. The website operator is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in the expanded data protection mode (Privacy-Enhanced Mode). According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, this does not necessarily rule out the sharing of data with YouTube partners.

When you start a YouTube video on our website, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Furthermore, after starting a video, YouTube may save various cookies or comparable recognition technologies on your device to gather video statistics, improve the user experience, and prevent fraud.

The use of YouTube is based on our interest in an appealing presentation of our online content and audio software. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If appropriate consent has been obtained (e.g., via a cookie banner), the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; this consent can be revoked at any time.

4. External Services and E-Commerce

Gumroad (Payments and Product Delivery)

We do not process direct payments or sell products directly on this website. For the sale and distribution of our digital products, we link to the external platform Gumroad (Gumroad, Inc., 548 Market St, San Francisco, CA 94104, USA).

When you click on a product link or a "Buy" button, you will be redirected to Gumroad's website. Gumroad acts as the Merchant of Record. If you initiate a purchase there, your personal data (such as name, email address, and payment information) will be collected and processed entirely by Gumroad under their own Privacy Policy. We only receive notification of the completed transaction and the email address associated with the purchase to provide customer support, if necessary.
