How we handle the small amount of data that touches this site. Written in plain English; the legal bases (Art. 6 GDPR) are cited where relevant.
The controller responsible for the processing of personal data on this site within the meaning of the GDPR is:
Full company details are listed in the imprint.
This site is mostly static — no JavaScript frameworks, no analytics, no cookies (except for the optional consent banner described below). Your browser connects to our server, fetches HTML and CSS, and moves on.
If you visit subdomains (research.ayumi.town, textileplaybook.com), those sites have their own privacy policies and may use additional tracking.
The site is served from a virtual private server running Nginx. When your browser requests a page, the web server automatically records technical access data — your IP address, the requested URL, the date and time, the response status, the referring URL, and your browser’s user agent string. These logs are automatically deleted after 30 days. They are not combined with any other data source and are not used to identify individual visitors.
Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR — legitimate interest in a stable, secure website.
If you email us, your message and email address are stored for the purpose of handling your inquiry and any follow-up. These messages are not shared with third parties. Data is deleted once the matter is resolved, and at the latest after 6 months of inactivity, unless statutory retention applies.
Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR — pre-contractual or contractual communication — or Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR for general inquiries.
