Data Protection

This post is also available in: English Français (French) Deutsch (German)

I added this because the blog uses
the Akismet plugin offered by WordPress to avoid comment spam
an access statistic from WordPress
Google Analytics.

The current data protection regulation requires some assurances that are actually taken for granted in my opinion. Because: whoever registers here leaves personal data behind. These are located on the Artfiles server in a very secure environment, and apart from a backup I do not save any data outside the server and do not pass them on. Registered users can request access to their stored data and, after logging out, complete deletion. If you hire me, additional agreements and a list of technical and organizational measures apply, which I will be happy to send you on request.

What happens to your data – privacy policy:
DANGER! If you do not agree to the data protection conditions set out below, you must leave this blog immediately!

Access data
Personal data is only collected to the extent that is technically necessary (name of the file accessed, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user’s operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page) and the requesting provider ). We cannot assign this data to specific persons.

WordPress.com stats
This blog uses WordPress.com-Stats, a tool for statistical analysis of visitor access, operated by Automattic Inc., 60 29th Street # 343, San Francisco, CA 94110-4929, USA, using tracking technology from Quantcast Inc., 201 3rd St, Floor 2, San Francisco, CA 94103-3153, USA. WordPress.com-Stats uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are saved on your computer and that enable your use of the website to be analyzed. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this blog is stored on a server in the USA. The IP address is anonymized immediately after processing and before it is saved. You can prevent the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; I would like to point out, however, that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of this blog to their full extent. You can object to the collection and use of the data by Quantcast with effect for the future by setting an opt-out cookie in your browser by clicking on the link “Click here to opt-out”: http: / /www.quantcast.com/opt-out. If you delete all cookies on your computer, you will have to set the opt-out cookie again.

Comments on the blog
If you leave a comment on the blog, your IP address will be saved. This is done for our safety if someone writes illegal content in comments (insults, prohibited political propaganda, etc.). In this case, we could be prosecuted for the comment ourselves and are therefore interested in the identity of the author of the comment. However, these comment IP addresses will be deleted as soon as we have read the comments. This usually takes place within a few hours.

This blog also uses the Akismet plug-in from Automattic Inc., 60 29th Street # 343, San Francisco, CA 94110-4929, USA. With the help of this plugin, comments from real people are distinguished from spam comments. For this purpose, all comments are sent to a server in the USA, where they are analyzed and stored for four days for comparison purposes. If a comment has been classified as spam, it will be saved beyond this time. This information includes the name entered, the email address, the IP address, the comment content, the referrer and the time of the entry. You are welcome to use pseudonyms or do not need to enter your name or email address. You can completely prevent the transmission of the data by not using our comment system. That would be a shame, but unfortunately we don’t see any other alternatives that work just as effectively. You can object to the use of your data for the future at support@wordpress.com, subject “Deletion of Data stored by Akismet”, stating / describing the stored data.

This site uses Google Analytics. Data is only transmitted anonymously. Further information can be obtained from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043

information desk
According to the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act, you have the right to request information at any time about which data is stored about you and for what purpose this storage takes place. In addition, a correction of incorrect data or the deletion of data, the storage of which is inadmissible or no longer necessary, can be requested. We provide information about stored data on the basis of a written request. For information about the data stored by external service providers such as Akismet / WordPress, please ask there.
