02 / Data we collect

Welche Daten wir verarbeiten

We collect personal data only to the extent necessary for the operation of our website and services:

  • Server logs: Each request automatically logs your IP address, user agent, referrer, timestamp, and requested URL. Stored briefly for security and abuse prevention. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest).
  • Contact / application forms: When you submit the "Join our team" form or otherwise contact us, we process your name, email, LinkedIn URL, portfolio URL, and message. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures) and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent).

  • Authentication cookies (admin only): If you log in to our admin area, we set a session cookie. No tracking cookies are set on the public site.
03 / Cookies

The public website does notset any tracking, advertising, or analytics cookies. Only strictly necessary technical cookies are used (e.g. for the admin login session). Calendly may set its own cookies once you open the embedded scheduling iframe — these are governed by Calendly's privacy policy.

Where data is transferred outside the EEA, we rely on EU Standard Contractual Clauses and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework where applicable.
