1.1 Explanation of data protection
In principle, data protection applies to all information that relates to an identified or identifiable person and can be directly or indirectly assigned to this person (so-called personal data). This includes information such as name, address, date of birth, etc. or combinations thereof.
Likewise, information that can in principle be assigned to a natural person via an identification (e.g. number, IP address, etc.) also falls under the requirements of data protection.
However, if the information is changed to such a level that neither direct nor indirect allocation to a natural person is possible, then the information is anonymous. Such data (e.g. aggregated data records or shortened IP addresses) is no longer subject to data protection regulations.
With the following explanations we would like to inform you about the processing of personal data concerning this website. The term processing covers the complete process from the collection, storage, processing and/or transfer to the deletion of the data.
1.2 Information on data collection
