Introduction to the Privacy Policy

Everything is legally phrased in the following privacy policy. Here I want to say that data protection is important to me and that I therefore only gather the data needed by the systems I am using and that I use those data exclusively to present you daily interesting craft ideas :)

With regard to the terminology used, e.g. “Processing” or “Responsible person” we refer to the definitions in Art. 4 of the Datenschutzgrundverordnung (DSGVO) (in English General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)).

Used Terms

“Personal data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as “data subject”); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by assignment to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier (e.g. cookie) or to one or more special features that express the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

“Processing” means any process performed with or without the aid of automated procedures or any such process associated with personal data. The term goes far and includes virtually every handling of data.

“Responsible person” means the natural or legal person, public authority, institution or other body that decides, alone or together with others, the purposes and means of processing personal data.

Relevant Legal Bases

In accordance with Art. 13 DSGVO, we inform you of the legal basis of our data processing. If the legal basis is not mentioned in the data protection declaration, the following applies:

  • The legal basis for obtaining consent is Art. 6 (1) lit. a and Art. 7 DSGVO,
  • the legal basis for the processing for the performance of our services and the execution of contractual measures as well as the response to inquiries is Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO,
  • the legal basis for processing in order to fulfill our legal obligations is Art. 6 (1) lit. c DSGVO, and
  • the legal basis for processing in order to safeguard our legitimate interests is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO.
  • In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person requires the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d DSGVO serves as legal basis.

Security Measures

We ask you to inform yourself regularly about the content of our privacy policy. We will adapt the privacy policy as soon as changes in our processing require this. We will keep you informed as soon as the changes require some kind of cooperation from you (e.g. a consent) or another individual notification.

Cooperation with Contract Processors and Third Parties

If we disclose data to other persons and companies (contract processors or third parties) within the scope of our processing, transmit data to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this is done only

  • on the basis of a legal permission (e.g. if a transmission of the data to third parties, such as payment service providers, in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO is necessary for contract fulfilment),
  • if you have consented,
  • if a legal obligation provides for this or
  • on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosts, etc.).

If we commission third parties with the processing of data on the basis of a so-called “order processing contract”, this is done on the basis of Art. 28 DSGVO.

Transmissions to Third Countries

If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if this occurs in the context of the use of third-party services or disclosure or transfer of data to third parties, this will only be done if it is to fulfill our (pre)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, on the basis of a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we process or leave the data in a third country only if the special requirements of Art. 44 et seq. DSGVO apply. This means that processing is for example carried out on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognised determination of a data protection level corresponding to the EU (e.g. for the USA by the “Privacy Shield”) or compliance with officially recognised special contractual obligations (so-called “standard contractual clauses”).

Deletion of Data

The data processed by us are deleted or restricted in their processing in accordance with Art. 17 and 18 DSGVO. Unless explicitly stated in this privacy policy, the data stored by us are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for their purpose and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory storage requirements. If the data are not deleted because they are required for other and legitimate purposes, their processing will be restricted. This means that the data are blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies e.g. to data that are to be be kept for commercial law or tax law reasons.

In accordance with statutory requirements in Germany, the records are kept in particular for 6 years in accordance with § 257 (1) HGB (trading books, inventories, opening balance sheets, annual accounts, commercial letters, accounting documents, etc.) and for 10 years in accordance with § 147 (1) AO (books, records, management reports, accounting documents, commercial and business letters, documents relevant for taxation, etc.).

Hosting

The hosting services we use serve to provide the following services: infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services, security services and technical maintenance services that we use for the purpose of operating this online offer.

We or our hosting provider process inventory data, contact data, content data, contract data, usage data, meta and communication data of customers, interested parties and visitors to this online offer on the basis of our legitimate interests in an efficient and secure provision of this online offer according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO in conjunction with Art. 28 DSGVO (conclusion of contract processing contract).

Collection of Access Data and Log Files

We or our hosting provider, collect the following data on each access to the server on which this service is located (so-called server log files) on the basis of our legitimate interests as defined by Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. Access data include the name of the accessed website, file, date and time of access, transferred data volume, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user’s operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address and the requesting provider.

Log file information is stored for a maximum of 7 days for security reasons (e.g. to investigate misuse or fraud) and then deleted. Data whose further storage is required for evidentiary purposes are excluded from deletion until the respective incident has finally been clarified.

Comments and Contributions

If users leave comments or other contributions, their IP addresses are stored for 7 days based on our legitimate interests as defined by Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. This is for our own safety, in case someone leaves illegal content in comments and contributions (insults, prohibited political propaganda, etc.). In this case, we ourselves can be prosecuted for the comment or contribution and are therefore interested in the identity of the author.

Akismet Anti-Spam Check

Our online offer uses the “Akismet” service offered by Automattic Inc., 60 29th Street #343, San Francisco, CA 94110, USA. The use is based on our legitimate interests as defined by Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. With the help of this service, comments of real people are distinguished from spam comments. All comment information is sent to a server in the US for this purpose, where it is analyzed and stored for four days for comparison. If a comment has been classified as spam, the data will be stored beyond that time. This information includes the entered name, the email address, the IP address, the comment content, the referrer, details of the used browser, the computer system and the time of entering the comment.

Automattic is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and provides thus a guarantee to comply with European privacy legislation (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000CbqcAAC&status=Active).

You can find more information about the collection and use of data by Akismet in the Automattic privacy policy: https://automattic.com/privacy/.

Users are welcome to use pseudonyms. They can completely prevent data from being sent by refraining from using our comment feature. That would be a pity, but unfortunately we see no other alternatives that work just as efficiently.
