Privacy Policy

We take the protection of your personal data seriously. This policy informs you about which data we collect and use when you visit this website.

1. Controller

The controller under the GDPR is:

2. Data collected when visiting the site

This site is static and forgoes tracking, cookies and analytics tools. When you access the site, our hoster's (IONOS) web server only records technically necessary log data (IP address, date/time, browser, operating system, requested resource). Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in secure operation). Log data is deleted or anonymised within 7 days.

3. Contacting us (email, phone)

If you contact us by email, phone or via the contact form, we store your data to process the enquiry. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR. Data is deleted once the matter is fully resolved, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

4. Map service (OpenStreetMap)

On certain pages (in particular the accident intake form) we embed maps from OpenStreetMap. Provider: OpenStreetMap Foundation, St John's Innovation Centre, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom. When the map loads, your IP address is transmitted to OpenStreetMap to deliver the tiles. For address-to-coordinate lookup we also use the Nominatim service of the same foundation. No commercial profiling takes place. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in a privacy-friendly map visualisation). Privacy notice: https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy . If you click the optional link „Open Street View at Google", Google Maps opens in a new tab — only then is data transmitted to Google Ireland Limited (see https://policies.google.com/privacy).

5. Your rights

You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection (Art. 15 – 21 GDPR), as well as the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

6. Storage location, SSL

Our website is hosted by IONOS SE in Germany. All data is transmitted end-to-end encrypted via TLS (HTTPS).
