Privacy policy
This translation is provided for convenience; the German version is legally binding.
1. Controller
The controller responsible for processing personal data on vocix.de within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:
Jens FrickeGermany
E-mail: kontakt@jensfricke.com
I run this website as a private individual.
2. Summary
In short: vocix.de sets no cookies, uses no analytics or advertising services and loads no content from third-party servers. Personal data is only processed where technically necessary to deliver the pages (server log files) or when you write to me. I do not pass data on to third parties; my hosting provider processes it solely on my behalf.
3. Hosting
This website is hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, owner René Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany. The provider uses Neue Medien Münnich GmbH (same address) as a sub-processor. The data centres are located in Dresden and Friedersdorf; hosting takes place exclusively in Germany. I have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR; it processes the data only on my instructions.
4. Server log files
Whenever a page is requested, the web server automatically stores information transmitted by your browser: IP address, date and time, requested address, HTTP status code, amount of data transferred, the previously visited page (referrer) and the browser identification (user agent).
The purpose is to deliver the website, keep it secure (detecting and fending off attacks) and troubleshoot errors. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; my legitimate interest lies in secure and stable operation. The hosting provider keeps these log files for seven days and deletes them afterwards.
5. Hosting provider's access statistics
My hosting provider analyses the log files for me to produce access statistics (Webalizer). They summarise which pages were requested how often, which pages visitors came from and which browsers they used. IP addresses are not shortened for this; complete IP addresses may appear in individual overviews.
The statistics are not public; only I can view them in the provider's password-protected customer area. The provider produces them as part of the data processing agreement (see Hosting) and keeps the monthly overviews for as long as the hosting exists; I can delete them there. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; my legitimate interest lies in knowing whether and how my projects are used.
6. Downloads via GitHub
VOCIX is a Windows application. The website vocix.de only describes it; you download the program files from GitHub (GitHub, Inc., USA). Only when you click a download link does your browser connect to GitHub; its privacy statement then applies. What the application itself processes on your computer is described in its documentation; this policy only covers the website.
7. Contact by e-mail
If you send me an e-mail, I process your address, your name (if provided) and the content of the message in order to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in answering enquiries); if your enquiry relates to a contract, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. The mailbox is also hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich (see Hosting). I delete messages once the enquiry has been dealt with and no statutory retention obligations apply.
8. Links to other websites
This website contains links to other services, such as GitHub. Merely viewing this page does not transmit any data to these providers. Only when you click such a link do you leave vocix.de; the privacy policy of the respective provider then applies.
9. Encryption
vocix.de is delivered exclusively over encrypted HTTPS (TLS). Unencrypted requests are redirected to the encrypted address.
10. Your rights
You have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access (Art. 15 GDPR)
- Rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
- Erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
- Restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
Simply write to kontakt@jensfricke.com.
Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)
Where I process data on the basis of a legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), you may object at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation. I will then no longer process the data unless I can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The authority responsible for me is: Der Hessische Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit (Hessian Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information), Gustav-Stresemann-Ring 1, 65189 Wiesbaden, Germany, datenschutz.hessen.de.
