Identification of the Data Controller

Dr. Volker Schubert
ᏃеⲣⲣeIinടtr. 53
7ɜO54 ꗋisIingen

Volker.Schubert[at-Zeichen]volker-schubert.org

The controller alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, contact details, or similar information).

Collection of Data

We use the web analytics software Matomo to collect anonymous visitor statistics. No cookies are set, and visitors' IP addresses are stored only in anonymized form. The analysis is performed entirely on the server side; no personal data is collected or stored. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR in technically optimizing our website. No data is shared with third parties.

Technical implementation details:

No cookies (including no session cookies)
Exclusive use of anonymized IP addresses (the last 2 bytes are removed)
No fingerprinting (including no recognition via browser or device characteristics)
No user ID / login linkage
Reduced referrer tracking (everything except the domain is removed)
Used solely for aggregated statistical purposes (no profiling, no marketing)

No consent is required for this type of anonymized data analysis. For example, the German Data Protection Conference (DSK) has emphasized in previous publications (e.g., concerning the "TTDSG/TDDDG") that cookie-free tracking with purely anonymized statistical processing does not require consent, provided that users cannot be recognized.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of a violation of data protection law, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection matters is the State Commissioner for Data Protection of Baden-Württemberg.

This data is not merged with other data sources. The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

The IP address is stored in partially anonymized form and deleted after 7 days.
