Privacy policy

Last updated: November 2026

1. Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is: Sebastian Vogel, Apcer Strasse 3, 90610 Winkelhaid, Germany. Email: austenish@mail.com.

2. The short version

We keep it simple. This website does not use cookies, third-party analytics, tracking pixels, social media plugins or advertising networks. We only count page views and clicks anonymously (see section 4). There is no user account, no comment section and no newsletter form. Fonts are hosted on our own server, so no data is sent to font providers.

3. Hosting and server logs

This website is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. When you visit the site, Cloudflare automatically processes technical data such as your IP address, date and time of access, the page requested, browser type and operating system. This is necessary to deliver the website securely and to protect it against attacks (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, legitimate interest in a secure and reliable website).

Cloudflare may process data in the United States. Cloudflare is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Cloudflare.

4. Anonymous statistics

To understand which pages and designs are popular, we count page views, clicks on our product links and which quiz results are shown. For this, our server stores the page visited, the date, the product or design concerned, which button was clicked, the quiz result, the country (derived by Cloudflare from your IP address) and the domain of the website you came from, if your browser provides it. Your IP address is not stored, no cookies are set, nothing is stored on your device, and no user profiles are created. The data is stored in a database operated by Cloudflare on our behalf (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, legitimate interest in understanding how our website is used).

5. Links to Amazon

Our product pages link to Amazon.com. Clicks on these links are first counted anonymously by our server (see section 4) and then forwarded to Amazon. No data is transferred to Amazon when you simply view our pages. Only when you visit Amazon does Amazon process your data under its own privacy policy.

6. Contacting us

If you email us, we process your email address and message to answer your request (Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR). We delete this data once it is no longer needed, unless legal retention periods apply.

7. Your rights

You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and to object to processing of your personal data. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.

8. Visitors from the United States and Canada

We do not sell or share personal information, and we do not use your data for targeted advertising.
