Privacy Policy

Protecting your personal data is important to us. We treat your personal information confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations, particularly the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This privacy policy informs you about which data is collected on our website, for what purpose it is processed, and what rights you have as a data subject.

In general, you can use our website without actively providing personal data. Personal data is only collected when technically necessary or if you voluntarily provide it to us—for example, when contacting us via email or post.

When you use this website, various types of personal data are collected. Personal data is information that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains which data we collect and how and for what purpose we use it.

1. Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Dr. Frank Dießenbacher
Otto-Marx-Str. 3
46509 Xanten
Tel: 02804 - 219 6255

Alexander Berkel
Email: alexberkel@t-online.de

The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

2. Access Data (Server Log Files)

When you visit this website, information is automatically collected by the web server and stored in so-called server log files. This data includes, for example:

• the page visited,
• date and time of access,
• amount of data transferred,
• browser type used,
• operating system,
• IP address (in abbreviated/anonymized form).

This information is not combined with other data sources and is used solely for the technical monitoring of web operations.
Server log files help analyze server activity, identify technical issues and security incidents, and optimize and stabilize the server system. The data collection is based on Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

3. No Use of Cookies

Our website does not use cookies. Neither technically necessary nor optional cookies are set. Your usage behavior is not tracked via cookies.

4. Contact via Email or Post

If you contact us via email or postal mail, we will store the information you provide (e.g., name, address, email address, and the content of your message) in order to process your request. This data is used exclusively for communication purposes and will not be shared with third parties.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. b DSGVO(pre-contractual measures/contract performance) and Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO (legitimate interest in processing inquiries).

5. Data Retention

We store personal data only for as long as it is necessary for the respective purpose or required by law. Once the purpose ceases to exist or the legal retention periods expire, the data will be deleted or anonymized.

6. Your Rights

You have the right at any time to obtain information about the personal data we store about you. You may request the correction of incorrect data, as well as the deletion of your data, provided no legal obligations to retain the data apply. Additionally, you may restrict the processing of your data, object to further use, or request the transfer of your data in a commonly used format.
If you believe that the processing of your data violates applicable data protection law, you have the right to file a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority.

7. Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data if there are no compelling legitimate grounds or if the processing is carried out for direct marketing purposes.
In the event of an objection, your data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
We will then assess in each case whether overriding legitimate reasons exist for the continued processing of your data.
You may submit your objection at any time and without formality, e.g., by email or post to the address listed above.

8. Links to Other Providers’ Websites

Our online offering contains links to websites of other providers. We have no influence over whether these providers comply with data protection regulations. You should therefore always review the privacy policies of those external sites.

9. Updates and Changes to this Privacy Policy

This privacy policy is currently valid (as of 05/07/2025). We reserve the right to amend it as necessary, for example, in the case of technical changes to our website or legal updates.
