This website works without tracking, advertising or cookie banners. No cookies are set, and no fonts, scripts or maps are loaded from third-party providers. I process personal data only to the extent necessary to operate the site or to handle your enquiry.

This website is hosted by IONOS SE, Elgendorfer Straße 57, 56410 Montabaur, Germany. When the site is accessed, IONOS automatically records technical data transmitted by your browser: the page or file accessed, browser type and version, operating system, device type, time of access and the previously visited page (referrer). The IP address is anonymised directly at collection and is only used to determine the approximate location of the access. According to IONOS, the data is stored for 8 weeks, not passed on to third parties and not transferred to countries outside the EU.

Processing is necessary to deliver the website and operate it securely. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in stable and secure operation). A data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR exists with IONOS.

I use the WordPress plugin Statify to get a rough idea of how often pages are viewed. Statify works without cookies and does not store IP addresses or any other data that could be linked to a person. Only the date, the page viewed and the referring page (referrer) are recorded. The data stays on this server and is not passed on to third parties.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in an anonymous analysis of usage).

If you use the contact form, I process the information you provide there: name, email address, subject, your message and, voluntarily, company, phone number and requested keynote. The form is provided using the WPForms plugin. Your details are transmitted by email to my mailbox at IONOS and are not stored in the website database.

I use your details exclusively to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if a contract or its initiation is concerned, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in handling enquiries). I delete your data once your enquiry has been dealt with and no statutory retention obligations (for example after a contract has been concluded) prevent this.

The consent checkbox in the form serves as a notice of this processing. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future; an informal email is sufficient.

If you contact me directly by email or phone, I process your details (for example name, contact details and the content of your enquiry) in order to deal with your request. My mailbox is provided by IONOS SE (address as stated above), which processes emails on my behalf. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR. I do not pass on the data without your consent and delete it as soon as it is no longer needed.

This website contains links to external sites, for example to LinkedIn. Simply visiting my site does not transmit any data to these providers. The privacy policies of the respective provider only apply once you click a link.

The font used on this website (Jost) is stored locally on my server. When the site is accessed, no connection is made to Google or other font services.

For security reasons, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise it by the “https://” and the padlock symbol in your browser’s address bar.

Under the GDPR, you have the right of access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and objection to processing (Art. 21). You can withdraw any consent given at any time. Simply contact kontakt@bergonomics.de for this purpose.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. The authority responsible for me is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of Rhineland-Palatinate (Der Landesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit Rheinland-Pfalz), Hintere Bleiche 34, 55116 Mainz, Germany.
