GENERAL INFORMATION AND MANDATORY DISCLOSURES
Data Protection
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.
If you use this website, various personal data will be collected. Personal data is information that can personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating by email) may have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.
Notice on the Responsible Party
The responsible party for data processing on this website is:
Jonas Brans
Zum See 4
14542 Werder (Havel)
Phone: (+49) 0151 21226257
Email: info@jonasbrans.de
The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).
Storage Duration
Unless a more specific storage period has been specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you make a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, deletion will take place after these reasons cease to apply.
Notice Regarding Data Transfer to the USA
Our website includes tools from companies based in the USA. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to the US servers of the respective companies. We point out that the USA is not a secure third country in terms of EU data protection law. US companies are required to disclose personal data to security authorities without you, as the data subject, being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence agencies) may process, evaluate, and permanently store your data located on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence over these processing activities.
Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke any consent already given at any time. The legality of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ARTICLE 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY.
THIS PRIVACY POLICY PROVIDES THE RELEVANT LEGAL BASIS. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS.
LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR). IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING INSOFAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).
Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.
SSL and TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser’s address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.
When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Information, Deletion, and Correction
Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing and, if necessary, a right to correction or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time for this and other questions regarding personal data.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
• If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
• If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
• If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing instead of deletion.
• If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, your interests and ours must be weighed. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may—apart from being stored—only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.
Objection to Promotional Emails
The use of contact data published within the framework of the legal notice obligation for sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials is hereby rejected. The operators of the website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam emails.

7. PLUGINS AND TOOLS
YouTube with Enhanced Privacy Mode
This website integrates YouTube videos. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch a video. However, data transfer to YouTube partners is not necessarily prevented by the enhanced privacy mode. For example, YouTube connects to the Google DoubleClick network, regardless of whether you watch a video.
When you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
Furthermore, after starting a YouTube video, YouTube may store cookies on your device or use similar recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting). This allows YouTube to collect information about visitors to this website. These details are used for video statistics, improving user experience, and preventing fraud attempts.
Additional data processing operations may be triggered after you start a YouTube video, over which we have no control.
Using YouTube is in the interest of providing an attractive online experience. This constitutes a legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. If consent is requested, processing is based solely on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR, and consent can be revoked at any time.

Vimeo Without Tracking (Do-Not-Track)
This website uses plugins from the video platform Vimeo. The provider is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.
When you visit a page on our site with embedded Vimeo videos, a connection to Vimeo’s servers is established. The Vimeo server is informed which of our pages you have visited, and Vimeo also receives your IP address. However, we have configured Vimeo so that it does not track user activities and does not set cookies.
Using Vimeo is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offerings.
This constitutes a legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. If consent is requested, processing is based solely on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR, and consent can be revoked at any time.
Data transfer to the USA is based on the EU Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses and, according to Vimeo, on “legitimate business interests.” More details can be found here:
