Protecting your personal data is an important concern for us.
Therefore, we would like to inform you what data obtained during your visit is used and for what purposes. If you still have any questions about how we handle your personal data, you can get in contact with our Data Protection Officer.
The term “personal data” is defined in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). According to the GDPR, all information associated with an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter “affected person”) falls under that definition. A natural person is considered identifiable if he or she can be identified directly or indirectly, especially through association with an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location information, an online ID, or one or more specific characteristics that reflect that natural person’s physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity. This includes, for example, your name, your address, your phone number, and your date of birth.
When you use this website for informational purposes only—that is, without registering or otherwise submitting information to us—we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our servers. When you view our website, we collect the following data as a technical necessity to allow us to make the website visible to you, and to ensure its stability and security (the legal basis for this is legitimate interest as defined in Art. 6, Section 1, Page 1, Letter f of the GDPR).
In the context of weighing of interests as per Art. 6, Sec. 1, Letter f of the GDPR, we have considered and weighed our interest in providing the website against your interest in data protection-compliant processing of your personal data. Since the following data is sometimes technically required for us to be able to provide our service, to offer you our website, and to ensure the website’s stability and security, especially in terms of protecting against misuse, we have come to the conclusion that this data can be processed while maintaining a level of data security oriented to current levels of technology and duly accounting for your interest in data protection-compliant processing.

You are welcome to contact us directly. Any personal information you share with us as a result will only be used for the specific purpose for which you provide it.
Any information fields on our contact forms that are not strictly necessary for purposes of contacting you are marked as optional. We request that optional information in order to make your inquiry more concrete and help us respond to it more effectively. Sharing this information is strictly voluntary, with your express permission. If you share communication information with us (e.g., your email address or telephone number), you give us permission to use that information to contact you in order to respond to your inquiry.
You can revoke that permission going forward at any time. To do so, please contact our data protection officer, whose contact information is listed above.
Your personal data is not transmitted to third parties for purposes other than those listed.
It is legally permitted and necessary in order to process contractual relationships with you.
In the event data is transmitted outside of the European Union, the high European standard of data protection does not generally apply. In the event of such transmission, it may be that no EU Commission adequacy decision is in place within the meaning of Art. 45, Sec. 1, 3 of the GDPR. This means that the EU Commission has not yet positively established that the country-specific data protection level corresponds to the level established within the European Union on the basis of the GDPR; as such, we have put the above-named appropriate safeguards in place.
Your personal data might be processed beyond what would be necessary for its actual purpose.
There is also the possibility that you may not be able to exercise and assert your data protection-related rights sustainably, such as your rights of access, rectification, deletion, or data portability.
There may also be a higher probability that incorrect data processing may occur, and that protecting your personal data does not quantitatively or qualitatively meet the full requirements of the GDPR.
We have taken extensive technical and operational precautions in order to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction, or access by unauthorized persons. We regularly assess our security procedures and update them to reflect technological progress.

If you would like to prevent cookies from being stored on your device, you can change your browser settings to “do not accept cookies”.

We use the wpgens.com PlugIn Votely to conduct short surveys (with two possible answers) within our articles. The PlugIn is operated exclusively on our servers in Germany and does not establish a connection to the site of a third party provider. If you do not participate in the survey, no data from you will be processed by the PlugIn. If you click on one of the answers, your choice will be saved without allocation to a pseudonym or your IP address. Only the country from which you cast your vote is recorded. In addition, participation in the survey sets a cookie in your browser that allows the browser to be uniquely identified when you return to the website and contains the information that you have already participated in the survey. In this way, we prevent falsification/abuse of the survey by preventing multiple voting. This is also our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit f) DSGVO. The cookie is stored for a period of 1 year from the time you cast your vote.

Our website incorporates third-party content, such as YouTube or Instagram videos, on the basis of Art. 6, Sec. 1, Sentence 1, Letter f of the GDPR. This always requires that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”) receive the user’s IP address, because without an IP address, they are not able to transmit content to the user’s browser. As such, user IP addresses are necessary to displaying this content. We strive to employ only content provided by sources that only use IP addresses for purposes of content delivery. However, we have no influence on whether third-party providers store IP addresses, for example for statistical purposes. We notify our users to the extent that we are aware of such practices.
All affected persons have access rights pursuant to Art. 15 of the GDPR, rectification rights pursuant to Art. 16 of the GDPR, deletion rights pursuant to Article 17 of the GDPR, rights to limit data processing pursuant to Art. 18 of the GDPR, objection rights pursuant to Art. 21 of the GDPR, and data portability rights pursuant to Art. 20 of the GDPR. The limitations set forth in Sections 34 and 35 of the German Federal Data Protection Act apply as regards rights of access and deletion.
You also have the right to submit a complaint to the data protection supervisory authority regarding the way we process your personal data.
You can revoke your consent to us processing your personal data at any time. This also applies to the revocation of declarations of consent submitted to us before the General Data Protection Regulation went into effect on May 25, 2018. Please note that any such revocation is effective only for the future. Processing that took place before consent was revoked remains unaffected.
Pursuant to Art. 21, Sec. 2 of the GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time. In the event that you submit such an objection to processing of your information for purposes of direct marketing, your personal data will no longer be processed for that purpose. Please note that any such objection is effective only for the future. Processing that took place before the objection was submitted remains unaffected.
Insofar as we base processing your personal data on a legitimate interest, you can submit an objection to such processing. When exercising this right, we request that you provide the reasons why we should not process your personal data as described. Once we have received your justification, we will examine the situation and either halt or adjust data processing accordingly, or provide you with an explanation of our compelling legitimate grounds for continuing.
Our websites may contain links to other providers’ websites. We expressly state that this data protection policy applies exclusively to websites for our online magazine KTCHNrebel. We have no influence on whether other providers comply with data protection regulations, nor do we check on this.
We reserve the right to modify or adjust this data protection policy at any time, within the scope of the applicable data protection regulations.
