Privacy
This is a personal site. It sets no cookies, embeds no analytics or tracking services, and loads nothing from third parties – no fonts, no scripts, no embedded video. Everything the browser fetches comes from this domain.
There is no contact form and no sign-up, so there is nothing here for you to submit.

What is processed anyway when you visit
Loading any web page leaves technically necessary traces with the host. This site runs on Firebase Hosting, which produces server logs typically containing:
- the requesting device's IP address
- date and time of the request
- the requested address and the HTTP status code
- the amount of data transferred
- browser and operating system identifier (user agent)
- the referring page, if any
The purpose is technical operation, serving the page, and defending against abuse. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR – my legitimate interest in the site working and staying reachable.
I have set up no analysis of these logs and do not look at them in normal operation. They are not combined with other data and not used to recognise individuals. Storage and deletion periods follow the host's terms.
Processor and international transfers
The host is Google Ireland Limited (Firebase Hosting), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, under a data processing agreement. Access from the United States is not excluded; Google relies on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
If you write to me
If you write to the address above, I process what you send in order to reply – legal basis Art. 6(1)(f), or (b) for contractual matters. Delivery runs through a forwarding service (Mailgun) into a Google mailbox. If you would rather it did not, please use a different channel.
Your rights
You have the right to access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and objection (Art. 21). Write to the address above.
You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. The one competent for me is the Independent Centre for Privacy Protection Schleswig-Holstein (ULD).
Changes
If the site changes, this text changes with it. The date above says when it was last touched.
