2. GENERAL INFORMATION

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

When you visit this website, data required for technical operation is processed. Additional personal data is processed where this is necessary for the operation and security of the website, where you contact the website operator, where you consent to the use of Google Analytics, or where you use external links or third-party content provided on this website.

The website operator does not carry out automated decision-making, including profiling, within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR.

3. PROVISION OF THE WEBSITE THROUGH GOOGLE SITES

This website is provided using Google Sites.

For users in the European Economic Area, Google services are generally provided by:

Google Ireland Limited
Gordon House
Barrow Street
Dublin 4
Ireland

When the website is accessed, information required for technical operation is transmitted to or processed by Google. This may include in particular:

– IP address
– date and time of access
– page or URL accessed
– browser and device information
– operating system
– referrer information
– technically necessary connection and security data

The processing serves in particular to deliver the website and to ensure its technical functionality, stability and security.

The legal basis for processing initiated by the website operator is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in providing this website securely and in a technically functional manner.

The website operator does not have full access to all log data maintained by Google in connection with the technical provision of Google Sites and therefore cannot determine binding retention periods for data stored independently by Google.

4. GOOGLE RESOURCES

As this website is created and delivered using Google Sites, technical resources required for its presentation may be loaded from Google servers. These may include static files, images, fonts and other resources required for presentation, functionality and security.

Technically necessary connection data is processed when such resources are transmitted.

The legal basis is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the proper technical presentation and provision of the website.

5. COOKIES AND CONSENT

Google Sites may use technically necessary cookies and comparable storage technologies.

Where the storage of information on your device or access to information already stored on your device is strictly necessary in order to provide the website requested by you, such processing is carried out in accordance with Section 25 (2) TDDDG.

Consent is obtained for non-essential cookies and comparable technologies where legally required.

When Google Analytics is enabled, Google Sites displays a consent dialog to visitors for whom consent to non-essential cookies is required. Visitors can accept or reject non-essential cookies.

The legal basis for processing based on consent is Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 (1) TDDDG.

Consent may be withdrawn with effect for the future. This can be done, in particular, by deleting the website and cookie data stored for this website in the settings of the browser used. When the website is subsequently accessed again, the consent decision can be made again.

6. GOOGLE ANALYTICS

This website uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4), a web analytics service provided by Google.

For users in the European Economic Area, the provider is generally:

Google Ireland Limited
Gordon House
Barrow Street
Dublin 4
Ireland

Google Analytics enables statistical analysis of the use of this website.

Depending on the manner in which the website is used, the following information in particular may be processed:

– pages viewed
– time and duration of visits
– interactions with page content
– scrolling activity
– clicks on external links
– file downloads
– website searches, where applicable
– browser and device information
– operating system
– approximate geographic origin
– referrer or source of a visit

Enhanced measurement in Google Analytics is used for basic usage analysis.

For visitors for whom consent is required, Google Analytics is used in accordance with the decision made through the Google Sites consent dialog.

The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics and non-essential analytics cookies is Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 (1) TDDDG.

Google Analytics data is processed in accordance with the applicable Google Analytics terms and data processing terms.

The retention period for user-level and event-level data in the Google Analytics property used for this website is set to 14 months.

The option to reset the retention period upon new user activity is disabled.

The collection of Google Signals data is disabled.

Personalised advertising and the use of Analytics data for the website operator's own remarketing purposes are disabled.

For the European regions selected in the Analytics property, the collection of granular location and device data has been restricted. This may prevent the new collection of certain detailed information such as city, city coordinates, device model or screen resolution.

Google states that Google Analytics does not log or store individual IP addresses of users located in the European Union, Switzerland or the United Kingdom. IP addresses may initially be used to derive approximate geographic information and are then discarded.

The data collected through Google Analytics is used to analyse and improve the website and to understand which content, releases and external music or media services are used by visitors.

7. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS BY GOOGLE

The use of Google services may involve the processing of personal data outside the European Economic Area.

Google states that international data transfers are based on the applicable legal transfer mechanisms, including adequacy decisions, the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and, where necessary, Standard Contractual Clauses.

8. EXTERNAL LINKS TO MUSIC, MEDIA AND DISTRIBUTION PLATFORMS

This website contains links to external music, streaming, download, video, media and distribution platforms.

These may include, depending on the content concerned, services such as Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, Tidal, Qobuz, SoundCloud, YouTube or YouTube Music, Beatport, 7digital and comparable providers.

In the case of ordinary hyperlinks, a direct connection to the respective external platform is generally established only when you actively click the relevant link.

Once the external platform has been accessed, its operator is generally responsible for the processing of personal data taking place there.

If individual third-party content is technically embedded directly into this website in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.

9. CONTACT

If you contact the website operator by email or telephone, the information you provide will be processed to the extent necessary to respond to your enquiry.

Where an enquiry relates to the initiation or performance of a contractual relationship, processing is based on Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

Other enquiries are processed on the basis of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the appropriate handling of incoming communications.

Where statutory retention obligations apply, further storage is based on Article 6 (1) (c) GDPR.

The data will be deleted once the purpose of the processing no longer applies and no statutory retention obligations or other legitimate grounds for further storage remain.

10. DOMAIN MANAGEMENT AND FORWARDING

The domains used for this website are managed using services provided by Squarespace.

Squarespace is used in particular for domain registration, DNS management and the forwarding of additional domains.

Technically necessary connection data may be processed in connection with domain and forwarding services.

Where such processing is necessary for the accessibility, technical resolution or secure forwarding of the website, it is based on Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in ensuring reliable and secure access to the website.

11. RETENTION PERIODS

Where the website operator processes personal data directly, such data is generally retained only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose.

Statutory retention requirements remain unaffected.

A retention period of 14 months is configured for Google Analytics user-level and event-level data.

For data processed exclusively by technical service providers where the website operator cannot directly determine the retention period, the respective provider's retention and deletion rules also apply.

12. YOUR RIGHTS

Subject to the applicable legal requirements, you have in particular the following rights:

– right of access under Article 15 GDPR
– right to rectification under Article 16 GDPR
– right to erasure under Article 17 GDPR
– right to restriction of processing under Article 18 GDPR
– right to data portability under Article 20 GDPR
– right to object under Article 21 GDPR
– right to withdraw consent under Article 7 (3) GDPR

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

To exercise your rights, you may contact the controller using the contact details provided in Section 1.

13. RIGHT TO OBJECT

Where personal data is processed on the basis of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR, you have the right under Article 21 GDPR to object to such processing on grounds relating to your particular situation.

14. RIGHT TO LODGE A COMPLAINT

Under Article 77 GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

For non-public controllers established in Bavaria, the competent local supervisory authority is in particular:

Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision
(Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht – BayLDA)
Promenade 18
91522 Ansbach
Germany

Your right to contact any other supervisory authority competent under the GDPR remains unaffected.

15. TLS/HTTPS ENCRYPTION
