The website operator, named in the imprint (legal information) of the website, explains in this privacy policy when, how and where which data is collected, processed or stored for which purpose.
As this website is registered to a private individual in Germany, the German privacy law implementation of the EU privacy regulation, called the DSGVO, is applied. As the German data protection regulations are among the strictest wordwide, this privacy policy should also meet other countries requirements.
This is a translation of the original privacy policy written in German. In doubt, the German version of the privacy policy is applied.

4 Commenting Pages or Posts
If you send a comment on a page or a post, the comment entered together with the data entered (name, email, …) and your current IP address will be sent to the “Akismet” service of the company Automattic Inc. in the United States States of America for automated spam protection.
The comment, including all entered data (name, email, …) will be sent to the mySQL database on this website here, saved there and published after checking by Aismet and/or after manual checking.
Basically, this website stores your or the current IP address used to send the comment. Please refer to the privacy policy of Automattic Inc. for the data stored via Akismet.
Please note that requests for a deletion request can only be fulfilled if a comment can be assigned to you (see point 5: Deletion request).
With your comment the name or pseudonym you have given and the website you have specified will also be published. Your e-mail address will not be published.
Activating the checkbox allows the data you enter there to be saved as a cookie in your browser (see point 2: Cookies).
Purpose of data collection and processing: Discussions are person to person interaction, which results in the need for collection and processing to make sure who is talking. Since the comment function is increasingly being misused to generate spam emails, the comments are automatically checked via the Akismet service. This website should not be misused for attacks, otherwise the comment function would have to be deactivated completely. A genuine comment is followed by around 10 to 20 spam comments, of which around two thirds are misused to generate email flooding attacks.
5 Data deletion and deletion request
You can send a data deletion request via the contact form or by sending a letter to the address in the imprint.
Please note that only data that can be assigned to you can be deleted. Anonymous comments that cannot be assigned to you either by name or by a valid e-mail address cannot be removed in the context of a deletion request.
6 Data extract
In order to receive an extract of all data assigned to your person, please request this via the contact form with your e-mail address.
7 AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages)
Many pages of this website are available as so-called AMP versions for an optimized, data-saving and fast view on mobile devices.
AMP pages can be made available via so-called CDN (Content Delivery Network, a network of many servers which provides the content when called up) instead by the web host mentioned in point 1. This happens if you use a corresponding service (e.g. a search engine or an app on a smartphone) and request the page there from this service. This request is then not carried out by the website operator, but by the provider of the CDN whose service you use for this purpose. If you open a page via a CDN, the data protection regulations of the provider you have chosen yourself apply, especially for the collection of communication and metadata. This provider will collect data from you on which the website operator has no influence.
Example: If you use the Google Chrome browser on a smartphone with Android operating system, a round symbol with a flash appears next to the respective search results, indicating an AMP page. When opening this search result, you may also see in the address line that you are still on the “google.com” page. Please note that Google may change this practice at any time.
You will never be directed from this website to any of the pages outside of this website.
