Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
This website is operated by: Frauke Besteman aka D.S. Wrights.
It is very important to us to handle our website visitors' data confidentially and to protect it in the best possible way. For this reason, we make every effort to comply with the requirements of the GDPR.
In the following, we explain how we process your data on our website. To do this, we use language that is as clear and transparent as possible so that you really understand what happens to your data.
2. General information
2.1 Processing of personal data and other terms
Data protection applies to the processing of personal data. Personal data means all data with which you can be personally identified. This is, for example, the IP address of the device (PC, laptop, smartphone, etc.) you are currently using. Such data is processed when 'something happens to it'. Here, for example, the IP is transmitted from the browser to our provider and automatically stored there. This is then a processing (according to Art. 4 No. 2 GDPR) of personal data (according to Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR).
These and other legal definitions can be found in Art. 4 GDPR.
2.2 Applicable regulations/laws - GDPR, BDSG and TTDSG
The scope of data protection is regulated by law. In this case, these are the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) as a European regulation and the BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act) as a national law.
In addition, the TTDSG supplements the provisions of the GDPR as far as the use of cookies is concerned.
2.3 The controller
The controller within the meaning of the GDPR is responsible for data processing on this website. This is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.
You can contact the controller at:
Frauke Besteman

2.4 How data is generally processed on this website
As we have already established, there is data (e.g. IP address) that is collected automatically. This data is mainly required for the technical provision of the website. If we also use personal data or collect other data, we will inform you of this or ask for your consent.
You are consciously sharing other personal data with us.
Detailed information on this can be found below.
2.5 Your rights
The GDPR provides you with comprehensive rights. These include, for example, free information about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal data. You can also request the rectification, blocking or erasure of this data or lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority. You can revoke your consent at any time.
The details of these rights and how to exercise them can be found in the last section of this privacy policy.
2.6 Data protection - Our view
Data protection is more than just an annoying obligation for us! Personal data has great value and careful handling of this data should be a matter of course in our digitalized world. As a website visitor, you should also be able to decide for yourself what "happens" to your data, when and by whom. That is why we are committed to complying with all legal regulations, only collect the data we need and, of course, treat it confidentially.
2.7 Disclosure and deletion
Disclosure and deletion of data are also important and sensitive topics. We would therefore like to briefly inform you in advance about our general approach to this.
Data will only be passed on on the basis of a legal basis and only if this is unavoidable. This may be the case in particular if it is a so-called order processor and an order processing contract has been concluded in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.
We delete your data when the purpose and legal basis for processing no longer apply and there are no other legal obligations to the contrary. Art. 17 GDPR also provides a 'good' overview of this.
For further information, please refer to this privacy policy and contact the controller if you have any specific questions.

4.1.5 Right to data portability in accordance with Art. 20 GDPR
This regulates the basic right to receive your own data in a commonly used form and to transmit it to another controller. However, this only applies to data processed on the basis of consent or a contract in accordance with Art. 20(1)(a) and (b) and insofar as this is technically feasible.
4.1.6 Right to object in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR
You can generally object to the processing of your personal data. This applies in particular if your interest in objecting outweighs the legitimate interest of the controller in the processing and if the processing relates to direct marketing and/or profiling.
4.1.7 Right to "individual decision-making" pursuant to Art. 22 GDPR
In principle, you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing (including profiling) which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. However, this right is also subject to restrictions and additions in Art. 22 (2) and (4) GDPR.
4.1.8 Other rights
The GDPR includes comprehensive rights to inform third parties whether or how you have asserted rights under Art. 16, 17, 18 GDPR. However, this is only possible or feasible with reasonable effort.
We would like to take this opportunity to remind you of your right to withdraw your consent in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR. However, this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out up to that point.
In addition, we would also like to draw your attention to your rights under Sections 32 et seq. BDSG, which, however, are largely congruent with the rights just described.
4.1.9 Right to lodge a complaint under Art. 77 GDPR
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates this regulation.
5. What if the GDPR is abolished tomorrow or other changes take place?
The current status of this privacy policy is 28.02.2024. From time to time it is necessary to adapt the content of the privacy policy in order to react to actual and legal changes. We therefore reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at any time. We will publish the amended version in the same place and recommend that you read the privacy policy regularly.
