2. Hosting and access to the website
This website runs at Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA (Cloudflare Workers). When you access the website, Cloudflare automatically processes data that your browser transmits: IP address, date and time of the request, the page requested, the amount of data transferred, the page visited before (referrer), and browser and operating system. This data is technically necessary to deliver the website and to protect it against attacks. We ourselves do not analyse this data and have not switched on any permanent logging.
The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the secure and stable operation of the website. Cloudflare keeps this data only for as long as is necessary to deliver and protect the website and deletes it afterwards; details are set out in Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Cloudflare processes the data on our behalf (Art. 28 GDPR); the contract for this (Data Processing Addendum) is part of Cloudflare's contract terms. In the process, data may be transferred to the USA. Cloudflare has certified itself under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, for which the European Commission has established an adequate level of data protection (Art. 45 GDPR); in addition, the contract provides for the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.
3. Contact form
When you write to us using the contact form, we process the details you provide there: topic, name, company (optional), email address and your message. We use them to answer your message.
The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your message is aimed at a contract, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (answering your message). The message is received by a small program at Cloudflare (Cloudflare Worker), which sends it by Cloudflare Email Routing as an email to our mailbox, which our email provider operates for us. It is not stored on Cloudflare's server. In our mailbox we delete it when it is no longer needed and no statutory retention obligations apply. Nothing is sent to you automatically in the process; we reply personally.
To protect against automated mass messages (spam), Cloudflare counts the messages per IP address within one minute; after five messages the form accepts no further message for the rest of the minute, after which the counter expires. In addition, the server checks a field that is invisible to people and the time it took to fill in the form. There is no captcha and no cookie. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest is protecting the form against misuse.
4. Contact by email
When you write us an email, we process your details in order to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry is aimed at a contract, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Emails to info@centropic.de are forwarded to our mailbox by Cloudflare Email Routing.
5. Links to other websites
This website links to other websites, for example to projects we have built. You leave this website only when you click such a link; the privacy information of the other website then applies.
6. Cookies and analytics
This website sets no cookies, stores nothing in your browser's storage and uses no analytics, tracking or advertising services.
7. Your rights
You have the right of access (Art. 15 GDPR), to rectification (Art. 16), to erasure (Art. 17), to restriction of processing (Art. 18), to data portability (Art. 20) and to object to processing based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (Art. 21). To exercise these rights, use the contact details given above.
You may also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR), in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. The authority responsible for us is the Landesbeauftragter für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit Rheinland-Pfalz (State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of Rhineland-Palatinate).
