02. General Information On Data Processing
Protecting your personal data is important to us.

This website primarily serves to present work, projects, and information. At present, the website does not provide contact forms, user accounts, newsletter sign-ups, ordering functions, or comparable features through which visitors can actively enter personal data.

Personal data is therefore processed only to the extent necessary for the technical operation and secure provision of the website or when you contact us directly.

The processing of personal data is carried out in particular on the basis of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
03. Hosting And Server Log Files
This website is hosted by:

Referrer URL
Technical status and error information

This data may be processed in server log files.

The processing is carried out for the technical provision of the website, to ensure the stability and security of the web server, for error analysis, and to prevent abusive or unlawful access.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the secure, stable, and functional operation of the website.

Server log data is processed only for as long as necessary for these purposes or where statutory retention obligations apply.

We do not combine this data with other data sources for marketing or profiling purposes.

Any additional information you voluntarily provide

The data is processed exclusively for the purpose of handling and responding to your inquiry and, where applicable, for initiating or performing a contractual relationship.
Depending on the nature of the inquiry, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Our legitimate interest lies in handling and responding to inquiries.
The data will be deleted once it is no longer required for the handling of your inquiry and provided that no statutory retention obligations or legitimate interests require further storage.
05. Cookies And Tracking
This website currently does not use analytics, marketing, or tracking services such as Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, or comparable systems.

In particular, we do not use technologies to create user profiles or for behavioral advertising.
Where technically necessary cookies or comparable storage technologies are used, they are used exclusively to provide technically required functions of the website.
06. Locally Hosted Fonts
Where fonts are provided directly from our own web server, no connection to an external font provider is established when these fonts are loaded.

The font files are loaded exclusively for the technical provision and visual presentation of the website.
07. External Links And Social Media
This website may contain links to external websites or social media profiles.

When simple links are used, merely visiting our website does not generally establish a connection to the respective external provider. However, data may be transmitted to the respective provider once you click the relevant link and access their website.

The privacy policies of the respective operators apply to the processing of personal data on external websites.

We have no influence over the nature or extent of data processing carried out by those providers.
08. Recipients Of Personal Data
Personal data is generally only disclosed to recipients where this is necessary for the operation of the website, its technical provision, communication, or compliance with legal obligations.

Such recipients may include, in particular:

Hosting and IT service providers
Email service providers
Technical service providers
Authorities or other public bodies where disclosure is required by law

Personal data is not disclosed for advertising purposes.
09. Data Retention
Personal data is stored only for as long as necessary to fulfill the respective purpose for which it was processed.

Data may also be stored where statutory retention or documentation obligations apply or where the data is required for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

Once the respective purpose no longer applies and any applicable retention periods have expired, the data will be deleted.
10. Your Rights
Subject to the applicable legal requirements, you have the following rights in particular:

Right of access to personal data processed by us pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR

13. Changes To This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be amended if the technical functions of this website, the services used, or the legal framework change.

The version currently published on this website shall apply.
Only While Google Fonts Are Still Loaded Externally
This section can be removed entirely once Geist Mono and Space Grotesk are hosted locally on the website’s own server.

Google Fonts

This website currently loads fonts via the Google Fonts service.

For users within the European Economic Area, the provider is generally:

Google Ireland Limited
Gordon House
Barrow Street
Dublin 4
Ireland

When you access a page on which a Google font is embedded, your browser establishes a connection to Google servers in order to retrieve the required font files and/or stylesheets.

In this process, technical connection data may be transmitted to Google, including in particular the IP address of the device used, browser information, the time of the request, and referrer information.

Because this involves establishing a connection to an external provider, the use of externally hosted Google Fonts should either be based on an appropriate legal basis under data protection law or replaced by locally hosted fonts.

We intend to host the fonts used on this website locally on our own server so that no connection to Google is required for the display of fonts.
The policy should remain consistent with the website’s actual setup, especially regarding the temporary Google Fonts section and its removal once the fonts are hosted locally, because outdated disclosures can misrepresent current data processing.
Let's create something meaningful.
