Privacy Policy

1. Data Controller

The data controller for purposes of data protection laws is Wilhelm Gerner, Rösratherstraße 55, 53797 Lohmar, Germany. For questions or concerns about data privacy, you can contact me at wilhelmxr@gerner.email.

2. Website delivery through Cloudflare Pages

This website is provided as a static website through Cloudflare Pages. When you access the website, technically necessary connection data is processed, including IP address, date and time of access, requested URL, browser/device information and referrer information where transmitted by your browser. This processing is necessary to deliver, secure and reliably operate the website.

3. Contact by email

If you contact me through an email link, your message is sent through your own email client or email provider. I process the data you voluntarily provide, in particular your name, email address and message content, only to handle your enquiry. This static Cloudflare Pages version does not operate a server-side contact form.

4. Purpose of Data Collection

I collect and use personal data for the following purposes:

• To present this portfolio and to respond to your enquiry.
• To maintain and improve this website and its content.
• To comply with legal obligations.

5. Disclosure of Data to Third Parties

I do not disclose your personal data to third parties unless required to fulfill our contractual or legal obligations, or with your explicit consent.

6. Cookies, local storage and tracking

No analytics or advertising tracking services are used on this website. The static Cloudflare Pages version does not set its own cookies. For individual visual transitions, the browser may briefly use local session storage (sessionStorage); this information remains on your device and is not used to recognize you across websites.

7. Embedded YouTube videos

Project trailers are loaded from YouTube only after you actively click the play button. Until that click, no YouTube iframe is embedded. After the click, the video is loaded from youtube-nocookie.com. Personal data, such as your IP address and technical device information, may then be transmitted to YouTube/Google.

8. Privacy Rights of Data Subjects

You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict processing, object to processing, and data portability concerning your personal data. Please contact me at wilhelmxr@gerner.email to exercise these rights.

9. Changes to this Privacy Policy

This privacy policy may change to comply with legal requirements or changes in my services. The current version will be published on this website.
