Sibylle Feucht
Mechenstraße 25

Unless otherwise stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing ceases. If you request deletion or revoke consent, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storage (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods). In such cases, deletion will occur after these reasons cease.
Note on Data Transfer to the USA
This website includes tools from companies based in the USA. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to the US servers of these companies. We point out that the USA is not considered a safe third country under EU data protection law. US companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without judicial recourse for you. It cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence services) process, evaluate, and permanently store your data on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.
Withdrawal of Consent
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent at any time. The legality of processing before the withdrawal remains unaffected.
Right to Object (Art. 21 DSGVO)
If data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. e or f GDPR, you have the right to object at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation against the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The legal basis for processing is stated in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can prove compelling legitimate grounds overriding your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing; this also applies to profiling to the extent it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing.
Right to Complain
In case of GDPR violations, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, especially in your usual place of residence, workplace, or place of the alleged violation.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive data processed automatically based on your consent or contract in a common, machine-readable format and have it transmitted to another responsible party if technically feasible.
SSL/TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries you send to us as website operators, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the change from "http://" to "https://" and the lock icon in your browser's address bar.
When SSL/TLS is active, the data you transmit cannot be read by third parties.
Information, Deletion, and Correction
You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and purpose of processing, as well as the right to correction or deletion within the applicable legal framework. For this and other questions regarding personal data, you can contact us anytime at the address in the imprint.
Right to Restrict Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data at any time. This means your data will still be stored but not further processed—except in certain cases.
This right applies in the following situations:
-
You dispute the accuracy of your data, and we need time to verify it. During this verification, you may request a restriction of processing.
-
The processing of your data is unlawful, but instead of deletion, you request the restriction of processing.
-
We no longer need your data for our purposes, but you require it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims.
-
You have objected to the processing under Article 21(1) GDPR, and it is still unclear whether your interests or ours prevail. Until this is determined, you have the right to request restriction of processing.
If processing has been restricted, your data may only be processed—with the exception of storage—with your consent, to assert or defend legal claims, to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for important public interest reasons of the European Union or a member state.
