2. General Information

The protection of your personal data is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data may be processed when you visit this website, why such data is processed and what rights you have under applicable data protection law, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

3. Website Hosting and Squarespace

This website is created and hosted using services provided by Squarespace. When you visit this website, technical information necessary to provide, operate and secure the website may be processed. This may include, in particular:

  • IP address

  • browser type and version

  • operating system and device information

  • date and time of access

  • requested pages and files

  • referring website

  • technical connection and security information

The processing of technically necessary data is carried out for the purpose of providing a secure and functional website. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the secure, reliable and technically efficient operation of this website. Further information about Squarespace's handling of personal data is available in the Squarespace Privacy Policy. Squarespace also provides a Data Processing Addendum governing its processing of customer-controlled data.

4. Squarespace Analytics

This website uses the analytics functionality provided by Squarespace. Squarespace Analytics may process information such as:

  • browser, network and device information

  • IP address

  • pages visited before accessing this website

  • pages viewed on this website

  • clicks and internal links

  • scrolling activity

  • searches

  • timestamps

This information helps us understand general website traffic and how visitors interact with the website. Squarespace confirms these categories of data in its own guidance for Squarespace Analytics. Where analytics or performance cookies or comparable technologies require consent, they are used only after consent has been provided through the cookie banner. The legal basis for consent-based processing is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and, where applicable in Germany, Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent can be withdrawn or changed at any time through the cookie settings available on this website.

5. Cookies

This website uses cookies and similar technologies. Some cookies are technically necessary for the website to function securely and correctly. These cookies may be used without separate consent where permitted by law. Optional analytics and performance cookies are only used where the visitor has provided the required consent through the cookie banner. Squarespace currently identifies several analytics and performance cookies used for functions such as identifying unique visitors and sessions. You can accept, reject or manage optional cookies through the cookie banner and subsequently change your preferences through the cookie settings on the website. More information about cookies used by Squarespace is available from Squarespace's cookie documentation.

6. Contact by Email

If you contact us by email, the personal data you provide, such as your name, email address and the contents of your message, will be processed for the purpose of responding to your enquiry. Depending on the nature of your request, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where the communication concerns a contract or pre-contractual measures, or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for other enquiries. The data will be deleted when it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected, unless statutory retention obligations or other legitimate reasons require longer storage.

7. External Links and Social Media

This website may contain links to external websites or social-media profiles. If you follow such a link, you leave this website. The respective external provider is responsible for the processing of personal data on its website or platform. A simple link to an external service does not itself mean that content from that service is embedded into this website. Please refer to the privacy policies of the respective providers for further information.

8. International Data Transfers

Squarespace is an international service provider, and personal data may therefore be processed outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. According to its current Data Processing Addendum, Squarespace provides safeguards for international transfers of European personal data, including the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses where required.

9. Data Retention

Personal data is stored only for as long as necessary for the respective processing purpose or as required by applicable legal retention obligations. Where processing is based on consent, the relevant processing will cease when consent is withdrawn, unless another legal basis permits or requires further processing.

10. Your Rights

Under the GDPR, you may have the right to:

  • request access to your personal data (Art. 15 GDPR)

  • request correction of inaccurate personal data (Art. 16 GDPR)

  • request deletion of your personal data (Art. 17 GDPR)

  • request restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)

  • receive certain personal data in a portable format (Art. 20 GDPR)

  • object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 GDPR)

  • withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR)

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR.

11. Data Security

Appropriate technical and organisational measures are used to protect personal data against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. The website is delivered using encrypted HTTPS/SSL connections. Squarespace states that traffic for Squarespace websites is protected using SSL encryption.
