1.1 EXPLANATION OF DATA PROTECTION

In principle, data protection applies to all information which relates to an identified or identifiable person and which can be attributed to that person directly or indirectly (so-called personal data). This includes data such as name, address, date of birth, etc., or combinations of these.
Similarly, information that can in principle be attributed to a natural person by means of an identifier (e.g. number, IP address, etc.) is also subject to data protection requirements.

However, if the information is modified in such a way that no direct or indirect attribution to a natural person is possible, it is referred to as anonymized data. Such data (e.g. (aggregated) data sets or truncated IP addresses) are no longer subject to data protection regulations.

The following explanations are intended to inform you about the processing of personal data on this website. The term “processing” covers the entire process, from data acquisition, storage, processing and/or transmission to deletion.
