Our website includes a contact form. Data entered (name, email, subject, message) is transmitted via Netlify Forms and processed solely for handling your enquiry. Data will not be shared with third parties and will be deleted once the enquiry is resolved.

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (contract initiation) or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest).

4. Cookies & Tracking

This website uses no cookies and no tracking tools. No data is collected for advertising purposes.

5. Fonts

This website uses exclusively locally hosted fonts. No external font services (such as Google Fonts) are used. No data is therefore transmitted to third parties in connection with font rendering.

6. WhatsApp Contact

This website contains a link to WhatsApp, operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. Clicking this link is entirely voluntary and at your own initiative. When accessing WhatsApp, your IP address and other technical data may be processed by Meta. We have no influence over this data processing.

For more information, see WhatsApp's Privacy Policy.

7. Customer Area (upload.stephani-it.de)

For the exchange of project files we operate a password-protected customer area at upload.stephani-it.de. It is a separate service, available only to customers with personal credentials, and is merely linked from this website.

Data processing there — credentials, uploaded files, server logs and storage locations — is governed by its own privacy policy: Customer Area Privacy Policy (German only).

As long as you do not access the customer area, no data relating to it is processed.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
