Privacy Policy

This website operates without cookies, without tracking, and without external resources. Whatever data does arise is described here in full.

English-language translation

This page is an informational translation provided for convenience and does not itself constitute the operative privacy notice. The German-language Datenschutzerklärung is the legally authoritative version under applicable data-protection law; in the event of any discrepancy, the German text governs.

This website loads no resources from third-party servers. There are no embedded fonts, no maps, no videos, no analytics or advertising services, and no content delivery network. The browser communicates exclusively with this website's own server. No consent is therefore requested: there is nothing here that would require it.

External links

Some pages link to standards organisations, government authorities, and manufacturers. Those destinations are contacted only when you click the link, not when the page loads. From the moment of clicking, the respective provider's own privacy policy applies.

Hosting

This website is operated at Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany. The server location is Helsinki, Finland, within the European Union. No transfer to a third country takes place.

The hosting provider processes the resulting data strictly on instruction, as a processor. A data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR has been concluded.

Server Log Files

When a page is accessed, the web server logs technical information transmitted by the browser. Without this logging, faults and attempted attacks could not be detected.

Contact by Email

If you send an email, the information you provide is processed to handle your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — the legitimate interest in responding — or Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where the enquiry concerns a contract. Correspondence is deleted once it is no longer needed and no statutory retention obligation applies. This website has no contact form.

What Does Not Happen on This Website

  • No cookies. No identifiers are set that would make a visit recognisable again.
  • No audience measurement, no analytics services, no heatmaps.
  • No integration of social networks, no share buttons.
  • No external fonts and no content delivery network.
  • No advertising, no retargeting, no affiliate tracking.
  • No registration, no user account, no newsletter.
  • No automated decision-making and no profiling under Art. 22 GDPR.

The connection is encrypted throughout via TLS. The server additionally instructs the browser to connect only over an encrypted channel (HSTS), and a Content Security Policy restricts which resources may be loaded at all.

Appearance Setting

The website can be switched between a light and a dark appearance. Without an explicit choice, your operating system's setting applies; nothing is stored for this.

If you actively switch it, the browser stores that choice locally on your device so the selection persists on your next visit. Only the word “light” or “dark” is stored. The value is not transmitted to the server, contains no identifier, and does not allow you to be recognised.

Your Rights

You have the following rights against the controller. To exercise any of them, an informal email to mail@carsten-klimke.de is sufficient.

Right to object

Log-file processing rests on a legitimate interest. You may object to it under Art. 21 GDPR where grounds arise from your particular situation. The objection will be reviewed and processing will stop unless compelling legitimate grounds override it.

Competent Supervisory Authority

Because the controller is established in Denmark, the Danish data protection authority is competent:
