Website delivery and security
When you request a page, hosting infrastructure processes connection data needed to deliver it. This can include your IP address, request time, requested resource, response status and browser information. Technical logs may be used to investigate errors, prevent abuse and protect availability. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in reliable, secure website operation under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Technical information is kept only as needed for delivery, security and fault investigation, subject to applicable legal requirements. Access is limited to those who need it for these purposes, including relevant hosting service providers acting under appropriate arrangements.
Local message preparation
The contact tool constructs a plain-text message within your browser. Its preview, copy and download actions do not submit the form to us. The site script does not save the form to cookies or localStorage. Your browser may independently offer autofill or restore form fields.
Copying places text on your device’s clipboard. Downloading creates a text file on your device. Clipboard history, shared-device access and local file retention are controlled by your device and browser settings. You should remove sensitive local copies when they are no longer needed.
Email correspondence
If you send an email, we receive the content, your address, any name you supply and associated message metadata. We use this information to handle your query and maintain relevant correspondence. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for ordinary enquiries and editorial correspondence, or Article 6(1)(b) where processing is necessary for requested pre-contractual steps or a contract.
Correspondence is retained for as long as needed to resolve the matter and meet applicable legal obligations or establish, exercise or defend legal claims. Statutory retention requirements can require longer storage of particular business records. We do not need confidential source audio, payment details or special-category personal data for editorial queries.
Recipients and international transfers
Hosting and email providers may process data to provide their services. Information may also be disclosed where legally required or necessary to protect legal rights. We do not sell personal information. If processing involves a transfer outside the European Economic Area, applicable GDPR transfer requirements must be met, such as an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards.
Analytics, links and storage
The supplied site code does not include analytics, advertising trackers or embedded third-party media. Images, scripts and styles are requested from this site.

Your rights
Subject to the conditions and exceptions in applicable law, you may request access, correction, erasure, restriction or portability of your personal data. You may object to processing based on legitimate interests on grounds relating to your particular situation. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting the lawfulness of earlier processing.
Send requests to the contact address above. We may need proportionate information to verify your identity. You may complain to a supervisory authority, including the competent authority in North Rhine-Westphalia, Landesbeauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit Nordrhein-Westfalen, or an authority in your place of residence or work.
