5. Web analytics (Umami)

We use Umami, a self-hosted, privacy-friendly analytics tool. Umami sets no cookies, stores no personal data and no IP addresses, and does no cross-device tracking. It is operated on our own server in the European Union on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR). Since Umami neither sets cookies nor accesses information on your device, consent under § 25 (1) TTDSG is not required.

6. Contact form

When you contact us via the contact form we collect your name, email address, area of interest (optional) and message. This data is forwarded to us by email and not stored in a database on the web server. For abuse prevention your IP address is held temporarily in memory (rate limiting: max. 5 requests per hour) and discarded automatically after one hour at the latest. The form also contains an invisible honeypot field to detect automated spam.

7. TLS encryption & cookies

This site uses SSL/TLS encryption for security. This website uses no cookies – neither for tracking nor for analytics or any other purpose.
