Privacy policy

This is a translation for your convenience. The German version is legally binding.

In short: This website does not set cookies, does not use tracking or analytics tools and does not load any content from third parties. Fonts and images are served directly from this server. Personal data is only processed when your browser requests the website (server log files) and when you send me an email.

1. Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is Philipp Vogler Schirmer. You will find the full address in the legal notice. For questions about data protection, you can reach me at kontakt@p-schirmer.net.

2. Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, owner René Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany. A data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR is in place with this provider. It processes the data only in accordance with my instructions.

Whenever you access a page, your browser transmits data to the server for technical reasons. This data is stored in so-called log files:

  • IP address of the requesting device
  • date and time of access
  • page or file requested and amount of data transferred
  • status code of the request (e.g. successful or not found)
  • browser and operating system
  • the previously visited page (referrer), if your browser transmits it

This data is necessary to deliver the website and to ensure its security and stability, for example to detect attacks. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. My legitimate interest lies in the secure and error-free operation of the website. The log files are not combined with other data, are not analysed and are automatically deleted once the retention period set by the host has expired.

3. Contact by email

If you send me an email, I process your email address, your name (if provided) and the content of your message in order to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR if your enquiry relates to a contract or its initiation; otherwise Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in answering enquiries).

Emails are stored on the servers of my email provider (ALL-INKL.COM, see section 2). I delete your message once it has been dealt with, provided there are no statutory retention obligations.

4. Stored settings: colour scheme and language (local storage)

If you use the switch to change between light and dark mode, your browser stores this choice in its local storage (localStorage) under the name “farbwelt”. If you choose a language (using the language switcher or the notice about the other language version), it stores this choice under the name “sprache”. This way, your display and language settings are retained on your next visit. The entries only contain the values “hell” or “dunkel” and “de” or “en” respectively; they do not leave your device and are not transmitted to the server.

When you use the language switcher, your browser also briefly places the entry “sprachwechsel” in its session storage (sessionStorage) so that the new page can fade in gently. The page in the other language deletes it immediately when it loads.

To offer you the appropriate language version, the website also reads the language set in your browser. This happens only in your browser; nothing is stored or transmitted.

Storage only takes place at your explicit request and is strictly necessary for this function you have requested (Section 25 (2) No. 2 TDDDG). You can delete these entries at any time by removing the site data for p-schirmer.net in your browser.

This website contains simple links, for example to LinkedIn and to schier-mehr.de. No data is transmitted to these providers when this page loads. Only when you click a link do you leave this website; the privacy policy of the respective provider then applies.

6. Your rights

You have the right at any time to:

  • access the data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
  • rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
  • erasure (Art. 17 GDPR) and restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
  • data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
  • object to processing based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (Art. 21 GDPR)

A short email to kontakt@p-schirmer.net is all it takes.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The authority responsible for me is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information Baden-Württemberg (Landesbeauftragter für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit Baden-Württemberg), Lautenschlagerstraße 20, 70173 Stuttgart, Germany, www.baden-wuerttemberg.datenschutz.de.

7. No automated decision-making

There is no automated decision-making or profiling. You are under no obligation to provide data. However, the website cannot be displayed without the data transmitted for technical reasons (section 2).
