Data Protection
Below you will find information about the use of your data when you visit my website:
What data is collected and stored?
In order to visit my homepage, it is not necessary to provide personal data. Personal data is individual information about the personal and factual circumstances of a specific or identifiable person (§ 3 I BDSG), i.e. data that allows conclusions to be drawn about a person. I will only collect or store this data if you voluntarily provide me with the data, for example when you contact us.
​
Personal data provided voluntarily will be collected, stored and processed exclusively to carry out my services. Your data will also only be passed on to third parties (courts, authorities, etc.) if this is necessary as part of my service. Of course, when using your data, I ensure compliance with data protection regulations - in particular the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the Telemedia Act (TMG).
Use of Cookies
'Cookies' are short pieces of text information that are stored on your computer. They make it easier to use websites. When using cookies, there is a fundamental risk that your surfing behavior within the website you are using can be read and user profiles can be created.
I use 'Cookies' on my website, because they make the use of the website more convenient and otherwise certain functions of the website cannot be carried out. These cookies are usually deleted after the session ends. However, you still have the option of preventing cookies from being stored on your own computer by changing the appropriate settings in your browser program.
Use of Google Analytics
I use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. ('Google') on my website. Google Analytics uses so-called 'Cookies', text files that are stored on your computer and that enable your use of the website to be analyzed.
​
The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address) is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website on my behalf, to compile reports on website activity for me and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to Mrs. Dörthe Drothen as the website operator. I would like to point out that, in order to exclude any direct personal reference, IP addresses on this website are only processed in abbreviated form because I use Google Analytics with the extension '_anonymizeIp()'. For this reason, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before it is transmitted to a Google server in the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
​
Under no circumstances will Google associate your IP address with other Google data. You can prevent the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; However, I would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to fully use all of the functions of this website. In addition, you can prevent the use and processing of your data generated by the cookie by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
