Data controller

Principle

This website is purely static. It sets no cookies and has no backend. The only processing of personal data takes place via a self-hosted, cookiefree web analytics service (see the following section). Beyond that, there is no further tracking and no embedded third-party services that collect personal data.

Web analytics (Matomo)

This website uses the self-hosted web analytics software Matomo (endpoint: matomo.silvio-und-maik.de) to produce aggregated, statistical evaluations of how the site is used. The analysis is data-economical and runs entirely first-party on an own server. On each page access, the following technical characteristics are recorded: an anonymised IP address (truncated to 2 bytes before storage), browser type and version, the operating system reported by the browser, the device type (desktop, tablet or smartphone), the screen resolution, the configured browser language, the country of origin and region (geometrically derived from the IP address), the referrer (the page from which this website was accessed), and the subpages visited with time spent and time of visit. In addition, anonymous technical performance metrics of the page are recorded (the Core Web Vitals: loading time of the largest content element, visual layout stability and response time to interactions); these measurements are purely technical and carry no personal reference.

No cookies are set and no information is stored on or read from your device; because tracking is cookieless and IP-anonymised, no consent — and therefore no cookie banner — is required under § 25 TDDDG. There is no profiling, no cross-device tracking, and no sharing with third parties. The data is used exclusively for aggregated statistics and cannot be linked to individuals. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in needs-driven development of this website). You may object to this processing at any time (Art. 21 GDPR) — tick the opt-out option in the field below.

Hosting (Cloudflare Pages)

This website is hosted via Cloudflare Pages. When pages are requested, Cloudflare processes technically necessary server and edge logs as a data processor; these may contain IP addresses and timestamps. This processing is within Cloudflare's area of responsibility. Further information can be found in Cloudflare's privacy policy: cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/

External links

This website contains links to external services (e.g. GitHub, Ko-fi, sponsor pages). When you click these links, you leave this website. The respective provider is responsible for data processing on the linked pages.

Your rights

You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, and restriction of processing of your personal data, as well as the right to data portability and to object. Insofar as the web analytics (Matomo) processes personal data, you may object to it (see the following section on web analytics). For questions about processing by Cloudflare (hosting), please contact Cloudflare directly.
