First of all
Human beings – like you and me – tend not to be able to keep track of everything when things get complicated. I keep the rapidly changing browser and website technology and the corresponding interpretation of data protection laws on my radar as best I can. If I miss something, I’m happy to receive direct feedback. I will look into it. Thank you very much!
When you book a membership, I save the email address you enter on the server. This enables me to manage and provide the membership you have booked (e.g. send Zoom links). You will automatically receive the monthly newsletter to this address, you can unsubscribe any time via the corresponding link in the newsletter. All further details follow below.

This privacy policy is intended to inform the users of this website about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator.
As the website operator, we take your privacy very seriously and treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory provisions. Since new technologies and the constant further development of this website may result in changes to this data protection declaration, we recommend that you read through the data protection declaration again at regular intervals.
Access data
We, the website operator or page provider, collect data on accesses to the website based on our legitimate interest and store these as “server log files” on the website server. Without these basic technical aspects of the World Wide Web, it would just not work. The following data is logged in this way:

- Amount of data sent in bytes
- Source/reference from which you came to the site
- Browser used
- Operating system used
- IP address used
The server log files are stored for a maximum of 7 days and then deleted. The data is stored for security reasons, e.g. to be able to clarify cases of abuse. If data must be retained for evidentiary reasons, it is exempt from deletion until the incident has been finally clarified.

Google Analytics
I personally want to use Google Analytics to better understand what my readers are interested in and how I can improve my website for them. I understand anyone who rejects that. So that’s been said:
Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Service. This data is shared with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network. You have to opt-in – and can opt-out anytime. of course – to make your activity on the Service available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics. Not opting-in or opt-out prevents the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js and dc.js) from sharing information with Google Analytics about visits activity.
