General Information
Protecting your personal data is important to me.
I process personal data only where necessary to operate this website, communicate with visitors, comply with legal obligations, or where another lawful basis for processing exists.
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.
Hosting and Server Logs
This website is hosted by:
ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich
Owner: René Münnich
Hauptstraße 68
02742 Friedersdorf
Germany
When you visit this website, technical connection data necessary for its operation is processed.
This may include your IP address, the date and time of access, requested files, the amount of data transferred, access status, browser information, operating system, and the website you visited previously.
This processing is necessary to make the website available, analyse technical errors, and ensure its stability and security.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
My legitimate interest is to ensure the secure and reliable operation of this website.
Data is stored only for as long as necessary for these purposes. Specific retention periods depend on the hosting and security systems used.
Contacting Me
If you contact me by email or telephone, I process the information you provide insofar as necessary to respond to your enquiry and, where applicable, for further communication.
Depending on the nature of your enquiry, processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, particularly in connection with pre-contractual enquiries, or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, based on my legitimate interest in responding to enquiries.
Your data will be deleted once it is no longer required for the relevant purpose, provided that no statutory retention obligations apply.
Links to External Websites
This website may contain links to external services, particularly YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, and Etsy.
When you click such a link, you leave this website.
Any subsequent processing of personal data by the respective provider is governed by that provider's own privacy policy.
A standard external link does not, by itself, mean that data is transmitted to the linked provider merely because you visit this website.
Your Rights
Subject to the applicable legal requirements, you have the following rights in particular:
The right to obtain information about the processing of your personal data.
The right to have inaccurate personal data corrected.
The right to request the deletion of personal data.
The right to request restriction of processing.
The right to data portability.
The right to object to processing based on legitimate interests.
The right to withdraw consent at any time, with effect for the future.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.
For questions concerning data protection or to exercise your rights, please contact:
info@ironwhistle.info
Changes to This Privacy Policy
This privacy policy will be updated whenever changes to the technical features used, the processing of personal data, or applicable legal requirements make such updates necessary.
Embedded YouTube Videos
Videos from the YouTube platform may be embedded on this website.
The provider is:
Google Ireland Limited
Gordon House
Barrow Street
Dublin 4
Ireland
Initially, embedded videos are replaced with a locally stored preview image.
Simply visiting the relevant page therefore does not establish a connection to the YouTube player.
The YouTube player is loaded only after you have expressly given your consent by clicking the corresponding button.
When the player is loaded, personal data, particularly your IP address and technical information about your browser and device, may be transmitted to Google.
Google may also use cookies and similar technologies.
Your data may be processed outside the European Union, particularly in the United States.
The legal basis for embedding YouTube videos is your consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and, where applicable, Section 25(1) of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (Telekommunikation-Digitale-Dienste-Datenschutz-Gesetz, TDDDG).
Where technically supported, YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode is used.
Further information about data processing can be found in Google's privacy policy.
Local Visitor Statistics
A local visitor statistics function provided by the Bludit content management system is used to analyse the use of this website.
Whenever a page is accessed, the visitor's IP address is determined on the server and converted into a pseudonymous identifier using the MD5 hash function.
This identifier is stored together with the date and time of access in a local log file.
The data is used exclusively to determine the number of page views and the number of distinct visitor identifiers within a single day.
The statistics function itself does not use tracking cookies and does not transmit the collected statistical data to external analytics services.
Daily log files are cleaned up regularly. Older logs are generally retained for no longer than seven days.
Processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The legitimate interest is to analyse website usage and improve the website according to visitors' needs.
Under Article 21 GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation.
Data Processing Agreement and Server Location
A data processing agreement pursuant to Article 28 GDPR has been concluded with the hosting provider ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich.
Under the contractual arrangements, data processing associated with web hosting takes place on data storage systems located in Germany.
Neue Medien Münnich GmbH is engaged as a sub-processor.
