Principle
This website is designed around data minimisation. The main site does not use analytics, advertising trackers, social-media tracking pixels or profiling technologies.
No user account is required to read the main site and no behavioural profile is created by benjaminkoch.info.
Technical Access
When this website is accessed, the hosting provider may process technical connection and server-log information necessary to deliver the website securely and reliably. Such information may include the IP address, date and time of access, requested resource, browser or device information and technical status data.
Such processing is limited to the operation, security and technical integrity of the website.
Correspondence
If you contact me by email, the information you provide is processed for the purpose of receiving and responding to your correspondence and, where applicable, for establishing or performing an engagement.
Information is retained only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose and thereafter only where applicable legal, documentation or retention obligations require it.
Legal Basis
Technical data required for the secure and reliable operation of this website is processed on the basis of legitimate interests in providing, securing and maintaining the website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Where correspondence concerns steps prior to entering into an engagement or an existing engagement, processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
Where processing is necessary to comply with applicable legal obligations, including statutory retention requirements, it is based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.
External Links
This site may link to independent third-party websites and services. Their own privacy practices apply once such external services are accessed. No responsibility is assumed here for processing carried out independently by those third parties.
Individual Sections
Certain projects, publications or independent services accessible through this domain may provide additional privacy information where their processing activities differ from those of the main site. Those more specific notices apply to the respective section in addition to this general information.
Your Rights
Subject to the conditions of applicable data-protection law, individuals may have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data-protection supervisory authority.
