1. Controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:
Sebastian GabrielHeidmersbrunn 34
86681 Fünfstetten, Germany
Email: info@sgabriel.dev
2. Overview
This website is intentionally built to minimise data. It uses no cookies, no tracking and no analytics tools. Fonts and images are served directly from this website; no third-party fonts (such as Google Fonts), analytics, advertising or social media services are loaded. Your browser therefore loads no third-party content when visiting the site. The only recipient of technical connection data is the hosting and CDN provider through which the site is delivered (see section 3).
3. Hosting and server log files
This website is hosted and delivered via Cloudflare. The provider is Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. Cloudflare also acts as a content delivery network (CDN) and provides security features (including DDoS protection), processing technical connection data as a processor in doing so. A data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR is in place with Cloudflare.
When you access the website, information transmitted by your browser is processed automatically and may be stored in so-called server log files:
- IP address of the requesting device
- date and time of access
- page/file requested and amount of data transferred
- HTTP status code
- browser type and version
- operating system and referrer URL
Processing is based on Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR; the operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free, secure and performant delivery of the website. The data is not merged with other data sources and is retained only as long as necessary for these purposes or to investigate a specific abuse or security incident; otherwise Cloudflare's retention and deletion periods apply.
As Cloudflare, Inc. is based in the USA, personal data may be transferred to the USA. Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework; in addition, the EU Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses are used as appropriate safeguards within the meaning of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR. Further information is available in Cloudflare's privacy policy at https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/.
4. Contact by email
If you send me an email, your details (email address, name and the content of your message) are stored for the purpose of handling your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR where your enquiry relates to the conclusion or performance of a contract, and otherwise Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to enquiries). I delete this data once it is no longer required and no statutory retention obligations apply.
5. No cookies, no tracking, no third parties
This website sets no cookies and embeds no third-party content (fonts, maps, videos, social media plugins, analytics or advertising services). No consent for non-essential processing is required, and no cookie banner is shown.
6. SSL/TLS encryption
For security reasons, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the "https://" in your browser's address bar.
7. Your rights as a data subject
Under the GDPR you have the following rights:
- access to your stored data (Art. 15 GDPR)
- rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
- erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
- restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
- objection to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)
To exercise your rights, an informal email to the address above is sufficient.
8. Right to lodge a complaint
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The competent authority in Bavaria is the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision (BayLDA).
9. Changes to this privacy policy
I update this privacy policy whenever changes to the website or the legal situation make it necessary. The current version published here always applies.
