Privacy Statement
1. An Overview of Data Protection
The following information provides an overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit my website. The term ‘personal data’ comprises all data that can be used to identify you. For more detailed information please refer to the section ‘General Information and Required Information’.
Data Collection
Who is responsible for data collection in connection with this website (the ‘controller’)?
I am responsible for any data processing in connection with this website. My contact information is available in the Site Notice page of this website.
How do I record your data?
Because my website does not contain a contact form, I do not collect your data directly through the website. It is static (not interactive) and does not use plugins from third parties. Therefore, no cookies are used. However, I may record your data when you contact me, either by email or telephone.
Other data is automatically collected by Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co. KG, my website host, when you visit my website. This data comprises primarily technical information (e.g. web browser, operating system or time the site was accessed). This data is immediately anonymized, which makes it extremely difficult to link the data to a specific individual. You will find more information in this Privacy Statement under ‘3. Data Collection in Connection with My Website.’
How do I use your data?
A portion of the information is collected to ensure that this website operates without errors. Other data may be used to analyze your user patterns.
What are your data rights?
You have the right to request information at any time without charge regarding the source, recipients and purposes for archiving your personal data. You also have the right to demand that your data be rectified, blocked or deleted. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at any time under the address in the Site Notice on this website. You also have the right to log a complaint with the competent supervising agency.
Moreover, you have the right to request restrictions on processing of your data under certain circumstances. For details, please consult the section “Right to Restriction of Data Processing.”
2. General Information and Required Information
Data protection
I am strongly committed to data protection. I treat your personal information confidentially, comply with statutory provisions and abide by this Privacy Statement.
When you use my website, certain types of personal data are collected. This data is immediately anonymized. Personal data can be used to identify you. This Privacy Statement explains which data I collect, how it is collected, and for what purpose.
I would like to point out that data transmission in the Internet (for example, emails) may be insecure. It is not possible to provide absolute protection of data from access by third parties.
Information about the responsible party (‘controller’)
The data processing controller for this website is:
Lynn Lohmann
Grünbauerstrasse 51a
D-81479 Munich
Telephone: +49 89 790 2659
E-Mail: info[@]lohmann-translations.com
The controller is the natural person or legal entity that makes decisions alone or jointly with others as to the purposes and means of processing of personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).
Revocation of your consent to the processing of data
Many data processing transactions are allowed only with your express consent. You can also revoke at any time any consent you have already given me. To do so, simply send me an informal notification via email. This shall be without prejudice to the legality of any data collection that occurred prior to your revocation.
Right to object to the collection of data in special cases; right to object to direct advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds related to your particular situation, to processing of your personal data which is based on Art. 6 Section 1 lit. e or f of the GDPR, including profiling based on these provisions. To determine the legal basis on which any processing of data is based, please consult this Privacy Statement. If you log an objection, I will no longer process your personal data, unless I can present legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or if processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21 Section 1 GDPR).
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to this use of your personal data. This includes any profiling related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be processed for such purposes (objection pursuant to Art. 21 Section 2 GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory agency
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects are entitled to log a complaint with a supervisory agency, in particular in the EU Member State where they usually maintain their domicile, place of work or at the place where the alleged violation occurred. You have the right to log a complaint regardless of any other administrative or court proceedings available as legal recourses.
Right to data portability
You have the right to demand that any data I automatically process on the basis of your consent or to fulfil a contract be made available to you or another controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. If you so request, your data will be transferred directly to another controller if technically feasible.
SSL encryption
This website uses an SSL encryption program for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as purchase orders or inquiries you submit to me as the website operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by checking whether the address line of the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the appearance of the lock icon in the browser line.
When the SSL encryption is activated, data you transmit to me cannot be read by third parties.
Information, blockage, erasure and rectification
Under applicable statutory provisions, you have the right to demand information at any time about your archived personal data, where it came from, who receives it and the purpose of processing of your data. You may also have the right to have your data blocked, erased or rectified. If you any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at any time at the address provided the in the Site Notice of this website.
Right to restriction of data processing
You have the right to restrict processing of your personal data. To this end, please contact me at any time at the address provided in my Site Notice. The right to restrict processing applies in the following cases:
- If you think the personal data I have on file is incorrect, I will probably need some time to verify this. In the meantime, you may ask me to restrict processing of your personal data.
- If processing of your personal data was/is conducted in an unlawful manner, you may request limited processing of your data instead of deletion.
- If I do not need your personal data any longer but you need it to exercise your rights, defend or assert claims, you may limit processing of your data instead of requesting that it be deleted.
- If you have raised an objection pursuant to Art. 21 Section 1 GDPR, your and my legitimate interests will be assessed. Until it has been determined whose interests are overriding, you may request limited processing of your data.
- If you have made such a request, this data – with the exception of archiving – may be processed only subject to your consent, or for the purpose of exercising rights, defending or asserting claims, or to protect the rights of other natural persons or legal entities, or for important public interest reasons cited by the European Union or a Member State.

Server log files
The provider of this website, Mittwald CM Service GmbH & Co. KG, automatically collects and stores in server log files certain information that your browser communicates to us automatically. This is done for technical reasons.
The server access logs record which pages were visited when. They contain the following data:

- Referrer URL
- user agent
- requested hostname
The IP address is anonymized by setting the last block of digits to 0. IPv6 addresses are also anonymized. Anonymized IP addresses are stored for 60 days. Any information on users listed in the protected directories are anonymized after one day.
Error logs recording failed access to the website are deleted after 7 days. These contain the error message, the accessing IP address and, if applicable, the page that the user was attempting to access.
This data is recorded on the basis of Art. 6 Section 1 lit. f GDPR. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in the technically error free depiction and the optimization of the website. In order to achieve this, server log files are recorded.
